Continuous and excessive use of synthetic fertilizers in food production generates strong pressure on agroecosystems. Therefore, it is necessary to study standardize alternatives that promote environmental health, such as biochar. Biochar (a blackish solid obtained from the pyrolysis vegetable waste, industry animal or water processing waste) characterized by its high content mineral carbon, presence functional groups, richness nutrients potassium (K+). Its soils improves organic matter cation exchange capacity (CEC), which promotes crop nutrition. In addition describing biochar manufacturing processes, this chapter aims emphasize role a fertilizer, stimulating effects soil microbiome enzymatic activity, positive plant health. Understanding biofertilizer can be considered an ecological strategy for production. However, agricultural sector must consider limitations fertilizer.
