Using herbicides is a fundamental part of the agricultural model and without the use of these products, food security is threatened worldwide. This book highlights the physical and chemical characteristics of biochar, which impacts sorption-desorption, leaching, hence efficacy and biodegradation of herbicides. It focuses on impacts of biochar addition on herbicides efficacy for weed control in agriculture. Features: Provides understanding of herbicide fate in the environment showing herbicide-biochar interactions. Presents information for weed research and soil pollution. Discusses biochar effects on behavior and fate of herbicides in soil and on herbicides toxicity for organisms in soil.
