What is Biochar?

Biochar is a carbon-rich product similar to charcoal & largely resistant to decomposition. It can stabilise carbon that has been absorbed by growing plants & store it in the soil preventing it re-entering the carbon cycle making this an eco-friendly product. It has a porous structure which provides a protective environment for beneficial soil fungi & bacteria which help plant roots extend their reach resulting in greater plant growth. It retains moisture & reduces leaching of nutrients from the soil allowing savings in irrigation & fertiliser costs.

Biochar has a number of benefits:

• Improves soil fertility & structure
• Reduces the need for costly fertilisers such as nitrates & phosphates which significantly add to greenhouse gas emissions
• Reduces nitrate runoff which can pollute water systems & it also reduces nitrous oxide greenhouse gas emissions
• Improves the ability for soil to retain water reducing irrigation costs
