Summary
Two field experiments were conducted to observe the effects of Biochar, Mokusakueki and Bokashi application on soil nutrients concentrations, yields and qualities of sweet potato. Results showed that the effect of different fertilizers on soil pH and EC, potassium, magnesium and NO3--N concentrations was significant and Biochar gave highest soil pH and EC, potassium, magnesium and NO3--N concentrations in FS Center, but this effect of Biochar was not found in Mito farmland.
