Biochar – Uses and Climate Benefits EN

Cecilia Hermansson, project manager at Hushållningssällskapet Sjuhärad, talks about biochar and its potential for both climate and agriculture. Biochar is produced through pyrolysis of organic materials such as wood chips or grass, creating a stable form of carbon that can be stored in the soil instead of being released back into the atmosphere. When added to the soil, biochar acts like a battery for water and nutrients, strengthening plants and crops, especially in dry and nutrient-poor soils. Cecilia believes that biochar is a valuable tool for the sustainable agriculture of the future, both for the climate and for coping with extreme weather like droughts.
