Effect of sago bark biochar application on Capsicum annuum L. var. Kulai growth and fruit yield

Applying biochar in crop farming or agriculture activity generally increases productivity through improved soil fertility and water holding capacity. However, there is a lack of empirical data on the effects of sago bark waste-derived biochar on the growth media of Capsicum annuum L. This work,...
