Among the bio-based materials that have attracted significant attention in recent years. <strong>Wood Vinegar<\/strong>As a natural product resulting from the recycling of plant waste, it contributes to improving plant growth and crop quality.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h6><strong>What is Wood Vinegar?<\/strong><\/h6>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\">It is a brownish liquid produced during the thermal decomposition of wood or plant waste under oxygen-limited conditions in the production of biochar.
