Abstract：When biochar is putted into the soil alone, it can be used as a soil conditioner to improve soil conditions. Additionally, it can be combined with fertilizer, turning into biochar-based fertilizer, with a series of advantages such as slow-release of nutrients, stable increase of yield, etc. , which is being ap-plied more and more widely in agriculture. This paper reviewed the research progress of application of biochar and biochar-based fertilizer in agriculture mainly from following several aspects:the effect of bio-char on soil physical and chemical properties, microorganisms, greenhouse gas emissions, crop growth and yield, the management of biochar on pollution of farmland soil, and the effect of biochar-based ferti-lizer on fertilizer nutrients, crop growth and yield, and clarified the advantages and disadvantages. The further research issues were also proposed, which would provide references for the application of biochar and biochar-based fertilizer in agriculture.
