Background
Farmers and agricultural enterprises are facing numerous obstacles, including the need to reduce their carbon footprint and effectively manage their organic waste, all while maintaining soil fertility and productivity. There is a need for sustainable soil management practices that align with global carbon reduction initiatives. ASQI is currently implementing one of the IPCC identified promising solutions: Biochar. It’s a charcoal-like substance produced through the pyrolysis of biomass, including crop and food waste. Biochar’s benefits extend beyond soil enhancement, as it also contributes to carbon sequestration and offers potential for generating carbon credits.
