BIOCHARCULTURE

Biocharculture Adaptation benefits

Securing the crop from

drought and climate

variabiiity

Reclaim the degraded soils,

water conservation,

Lessen the impact of hazardous

pesticides and complex

chemicals & to reduce plant

uptake.

reducing emissions and increasing the

sequestration of greenhouse

gases

Conversion of cotton stalks

into Biochar an option and

address carbon sequestration

Increase in crop yield

increases in C, N, pH, and

available P to the plants

Impacts of Biochar last

more than 1000 years.
