50% increase in potato crop yield achieved in raised vegetable beds amended with various biochar, humus and compost mixes.

Possible uses of biochar as a replacement for activated carbons derived from fossil fuels and used in industrial applications such as water filters, gas odor reduction, reducing agents and potential building materials

Biochar is used in the following water and gas filtration applications

Welcome to our Sept. 2020 update on the uses of biochar in farming and agriculture. This is a rapidly developing area and many of the topics below now have their own separate article. Here we provide a short overview of each headline. Follow the links for the more in-depth blogs.
