Biochar is useful for soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration. However, the effects of biochar aging and addition rates on SOC stabilization are unclear. A field experiment with four biochar application rates (0% (control), 1% (LB), 2% (MB), and 4% (HB) of dry fluvo-aquic soil) was conducted. Soil samples were sampled after 8, 12, and 24 months of its application to clarify the question.
