22 Conclusion BAP could function as an uncoated slow release fertilizer that permits maximum uptake and utilization of nitrogen. Fertilizer impregnated into the Biochar does not contain any harmful coating materials that deteriorate the soil properties. Besides, the Biochar material adds organic carbon to the soil in addition of its benefit of economic impact. 21
