Project Abstract

Abstract
Soil health is crucial for sustainable agriculture and environmental conservation. The use of biochar as a soil amendment has gained significant attention due to its potential to improve soil fertility and mitigate climate change. This research project aims to assess the impact of biochar application on soil health parameters in agricultural soils. The study will investigate various soil health indicators, including soil organic matter content, nutrient availability, microbial activity, and physical properties, before and after the application of biochar. Chapter 1 provides an introduction to the research topic, outlining the background, problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, structure of the research, and definition of terms. Chapter 2 presents a comprehensive literature review covering ten key aspects related to soil health, biochar properties, and previous research studies on biochar application in agricultural soils. The literature review will provide a theoretical framework for the research project and guide the selection of appropriate methodologies. Chapter 3 details the research methodology, including the experimental design, sampling procedures, biochar application rates, soil health parameter measurements, and data analysis techniques. The methodology section will describe how the study will be conducted to ensure the reliability and validity of the results. Chapter 4 presents the findings of the research, discussing the impact of biochar application on soil health parameters based on the experimental results. The discussion will analyze the changes observed in soil properties and their implications for agricultural sustainability. Finally, Chapter 5 concludes the research project by summarizing the key findings, highlighting the significance of the results, and providing recommendations for future research and practical applications. The conclusion will emphasize the importance of biochar as a sustainable soil management practice and its potential to enhance soil health in agricultural systems. Overall, this research project will contribute valuable insights into the use of biochar for improving soil health and promoting sustainable agriculture practices.
