Biochar from agricultural residues for poultry litter improvement
Plant-based charcoal from agricultural residues for sustainable litter management in organic broiler production
or
Detail description
Plant-derived charcoal from agricultural residues improves litter quality in organic broiler production, reducing ammonia emissions and foot pad lesions. The study assessed rye husk and wood chip residue-based charcoal as a 250 g/m² litter additive, showing potential for enhancing animal welfare and sustainability in cold-weather conditions.
