Biochar is a type of charcoal made from various organic materials. It has been used throughout history to improve soil quality, plant health, and crop nutrition, leading to higher farming efficiency.
But the product has not found wider usage due to a number of factors, according to Kuznicki.
One is the high cost and risk of implementing biochar. Farms need to invest a substantial amount of money, and high-quality biomass sources can be limited. There is also a general lack of information about biochar and its benefits.
The equipment is automated, meaning farmers just need to push a button. Using the WasteX app, farmers can record their biochar production and receive customized recommendations on how to apply the biochar.
