Project Description

Biochar is a form of charcoal produced from biomass like wood chips, crop residues, or animal manure, created through a process called pyrolysis. This stable carbon-rich material is used primarily as a soil amendment, enhancing soil fertility and moisture retention while also sequestering carbon. Its connection to climate change lies in its ability to improve soil health, thereby increasing carbon storage in the soil and mitigating greenhouse gas emissions by reducing the decomposition of organic matter. is a form of charcoal produced from biomass like wood chips, crop residues, or animal manure, created through a process called pyrolysis.
