Effect of Biofertilizer and Biochar Applications on Quantitative, Qualitative Yields and Root Characteristics of Flue-Cured Tobacco (Nicotiana tobacum L.) Under Dryland Farming Condition

Tobacco is cultivated as a valuable crop in more than one hundred countries in different climatic conditions and plays an important role in the economies of some countries.This study was performed to evaluate the effect of mycorrhiza and azotobacter with application of biocahr on tobacco leaf yield,...
