N-enriched biochar with an optimized C:N ratio enhances crop growth by regulating enzymatic activities, soil properties, and photosynthetic efficiency under varying N fertilization

Biochar is widely used to enhance soil fertility and productivity, but the role of its C:N ratio and its interaction with varying nitrogen (N) application rates remains poorly understood. This study evaluated the effects of N-enriched biochar (NB) with different carbon-to-nitroge...
