Soil acidity is a serious problem in agricultural lands as it directly affects the soil, crop production, and human health. acidification occurs due to release of protons (H + ) from transforming reactions various carbon, nitrogen, sulfur-containing compounds. The use biochar (BC) has emerged an excellent tool manage soil owing its alkaline nature appreciable ability improve soil’s physical, chemical, biological properties. application BC acidic soils improves pH, organic matter (SOM), cation exchange capacity (CEC), nutrient uptake, microbial activity diversity, enzyme activities which mitigate adverse impacts on plants. Further, also reduce concentration H Al 3+ ions other toxic metals supports plant growth. Similarly, salinity (SS) concern across globe direct impact global production food security. Due liming potential important amendment SS. addition saline homeostasis, SOM, CEC, activity, enzymatic water uptake reduces accumulation sodium (Na chloride (Cl - ). All these BC-mediated changes support growth by improving antioxidant photosynthesis efficiency, stomata working, decrease oxidative damage Thus, present review, we discussed mechanisms through properties counter problems. review will increase existing knowledge about role This provide new suggestions readers how this can be used ameliorate soils.

Abstract Salinity stress adversely affects agricultural productivity by disrupting water uptake, causing nutrient imbalances, and leading to ion toxicity. Excessive salts in the soil hinder crops root growth damage cellular functions, reducing photosynthetic capacity inducing oxidative stress. Stomatal closure further limits carbon dioxide uptake that negatively impact plant growth. To ensure sustainable agriculture salt-affected regions, it is essential implement strategies like using biofertilizers (e.g. arbuscular mycorrhizae fungi = AMF) activated biochar. Both amendments can potentially mitigate salinity regulating antioxidants, gas exchange attributes chlorophyll contents. The current study aims explore effect of EDTA-chelated biochar (ECB) with without AMF on maize under Five levels ECB (0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6 0.8%) were applied, AMF.
