Abstract

The excessive use of nitrogen fertilizer leads to soil pollution and groundwater contamination by nitrate leaching. Thus, understanding nutrient retention properties of a soil is important for managing nitrate contamination. The aim of this research was to study the effect of plant residues and biochars on organic matter and nitrogen retention in soil. One percentage (w
