Cover Story: Biochar has the potential to help to achieve sustainable water management in agriculture by increasing soil water holding capacity. In vulnerable regions such as the tropics, however, there is still limited understanding of the impacts of biochar on soil–water interactions and on plant water composition. Our 10-week growing season experiment looks at biochar impacts on the water being stored and utilized for melon production under drip irrigation in Costa Rica. Using a combination of hydrometric observations and stable water isotopes, we assess the ability of biochar to improve soil water availability without jeopardizing crop production, while at the same time allowing for locally sourced feedstock carbon to be directly sequestered into the soil.
