Biochar is a porous, carbon-rich material produced through pyrolysis – heating organic material (often wood, rice, or plant residues) without oxygen. The result is a stable form of carbon that does not break down in the soil like other organic matter.
In cultivation, biochar is mainly used to:
Improve soil structure – the porous particles make the soil more airy and contribute to better drainage and root environment.
Increase water retention – biochar acts like a sponge that absorbs and stores water, allowing the soil to hold moisture longer and reducing the need for watering.
Store nutrients – the pores of the biochar serve as small reservoirs where nutrients and micro-life can gather and be made available to plants over a long time.
Support micro-life – biochar creates a stable living environment for beneficial microorganisms in the soil.
Bind carbon dioxide – by burying biochar in the ground, carbon is locked in the soil for a very long time, which can contribute to climate benefit.
Biochar is especially useful in sandy soils where it improves moisture retention, and in clay soils where it helps improve looseness. It is an excellent choice in organic cultivation and is often used in vegetable beds, perennial borders, when planting shrubs and trees, as well as in growing boxes.
