Mulched drip irrigation and maize straw biochar increase peanut yield by regulating soil nitrogen, photosynthesis and root in arid regions

Biochar has been increasingly recognized as a valuable soil conditioner, which is beneficial to peanut yield improvement. We conducted a three-year field experiment to investigate the effect of biochar applied at three rates (0 t ha−1 (B0), 24 t ha−1 (B1), and 48 t ha−1 (B2), which were 0%, 1%, 2% o...
