Both biochar (BC) and wood vinegar (WV) influence the nitrous oxide (N₂O) and methane (CH₄) emissions from agricultural systems. However, the impacts of BC and WV co-application on rice production, N₂O and CH₄ emissions are not well documented. We here conducted a two-year soil columns experiment with four treatments: WV (5 t WV ha⁻¹), BC (7.5 t BC ha⁻¹), WV + BC (5 t WV ha⁻¹ +7.5 t BC ha⁻¹) and a control (no treatment). The results showed that BC and WV + BC produced higher rice grain yield than the control by 14.1–15.9% in 2016 and by 4.1–5.2% in 2017, respectively. While WV increased rice grain yield by 11.2% in 2016, it had no significant influence on yield in 2017. Both WV and BC significantly mitigated N₂O emissions by 22.4–41.8% in 2016 and 22.4–36.9% in 2017, respectively. Interestingly, WV + BC treatment showed the highest N₂O mitigation efficiency, with a 52.9–62.8% mitigations in 2016 and 2017. Furthermore, the co-application of WV and BC significantly mitigated CH₄ emissions by 42.6% in 2016 and 35.3% in 2017, respectively, while applying WV or BC alone had no annually-consistent mitigation effect on CH₄ emissions. Overall, GWPt of rice growth cycle was most significantly suppressed by WV + BC with a 48.7–56.1% reduction, followed by WV and BC with 20.4–28.0% and 19.7–35.7% reductions, respectively. Consequently, the WV + BC treatment had the highest GHGI mitigation effect, averaging with 56.7% over two consecutive rice growth cycles. In conclusion, co-application of WV and BC is recommended for rice cultivation, which can both improve rice yield and minimize GHG emissions.
