Biochar: the secret to improving soil health.

Growing Healthy Soils, and Remediating Contaminants

Biochar helps cut manure emissions while converting organic waste into a stable, carbon-rich solid fertilizer produced by heating biomass in a low-oxygen environment (pyrolysis) at temperatures typically between 300–700 °C. The resulting charred material is highly porous and resists microbial degradation, meaning that once applied to soil, it can persist—and lock up carbon—for decades or even centuries.

Biochar stands at the intersection of regenerative agriculture, carbon management, and environmental remediation. By harnessing its porous structure, nutrient retention prowess, and contaminant-adsorbing capabilities, farmers and gardeners can cultivate more productive, resilient soils while contributing to global carbon sequestration efforts—and now, even counteracting the trace-metal fallout from cloud-seeding operations.

Whether you manage a backyard garden or operate large-scale farmland, consider giving biochar a try—and watch your soil—and the planet—thank you.
