What is Biochar?

Biochar is a stable, carbon-rich soil amendment created from the thermal decomposition of biomass heated in a low-oxygen environment. This stabilized form of carbon can be returned to the earth, where it continues to store carbon while improving soil productivity. Biochar can be used in a range of situations, from potting soil to turfgrass applications. By using biochar in their fields, farmers can increase agricultural production without increasing cropland.

You can use biochar in your garden, potting soil and compost production as well.
