Biochar

The Problem

• When farmers simply leave crop residue on the field to decompose, only about 10 to 20 per cent of the residue carbon is recycled into soil

• The decomposition/burning of organic waste result in emission of greenhouse gases

• Agriculture, forestry and land use accounts for over 18 per cent of global greenhouse emissions

Our Solution

• Setting up of biochar processing facilities in agricultural communities, and training farmers to produce biochar using agricultural waste

• Planning, implementation and monitoring via digital platforms and independent verification to ensure carbon registry compliance

• Carbon sequestration for 100+ years

Our Impact

• Reduction in greenhouse gases emission from agricultural waste

• Soil amendments using biochar improve soil quality for climate adaptation as it can better withstand inclement weather and improves crop yield for farmers
