Discover why regular charcoal cannot replace biochar and the specific benefits biochar offers for soil improvement.

Join Wakefield BioChar and the US Biochar Coalition in revolutionizing the environmental landscape!

Biochar, created from biomass, traps carbon, improves soil by retaining nutrients and water, supports helpful microbes, increases crop yields, and removes about two tons of CO2 per dry ton.

Biochar is a sustainable product that can be effectively used in various systems to remove odors.

Biochar is a highly porous, carbon-rich substance produced by heating organic matter in a low-oxygen environment – a process called pyrolysis.

Transform your construction projects with biochar – the game-changing material for stronger, greener, and more sustainable building solutions.

High-interporosity biochar significantly boosts water retention in coarse soils, especially when combined with compost and cover cropping.

Explore how DS Smith and Wakefield are converting paper mill waste into useful biochar for sustainability.

Based on research by Arjun Kafle, Sukhbir Singh, Sanjit Deb, Catherine Simpson, and Glen Ritchie(Crop Science, 2025, Texas Tech University), water is a precious resource—especially in hot, dry places like West Texas. For farmers growing sweet corn, managing water wisely is more important than ever. A 2-year field study led by Arjun Kafle and his […]
