Bio-char is the carbon structure of a plant after all of the other elements have been removed. Bio-char permanently stores the carbon in a beneficial way, in the ground, making it carbon-negative. Bio-char acts as a hotel for soil microbes. This can be used to enhance soil quality even in the poorest of soils, without using dangerous and expensive chemical fertilizers. This is how the ancient amazons did it with their Terra Preta.
When mixed in with the soil, it has the double impact of permanently sequestering large amounts of CO2 and improving soil quality, so as to dramatically increase the crop yields and the income that results from sale of the excess produce. Bio-char as a permanent fertilizer has been known to double plant growth. This increases the yields and profitability per square foot. The habitual use of bio-char leads to a virtuous cycle of increasing economic prosperity from year to year, using land resources currently viewed as "unproductive."

Making and using bio-char was a tool the ancient Amazon natives used to convert infertile soil into soil that produced in abundance.
This is a simple way to help solve hunger worldwide, through creating local food abundance. Anyone can do it, once you learn how.

About 6 weeks weeks ago I crushed some charcoal in a bucket with a sledge hammer. I added some water and the solids that came out of my pond filter after cleaning it, and I crushed it all mixed together until most of the charcoal had a fine grain size. ( I suppose that any type of manure will do, I just happen to have a pond) The water was just to prevent a lot of dust while crushing the charcoal. After I crushed it I did let the water evaporate in the sun, making sure that the charcoal kept a fine grain size by stirring it so now and then while the water was evaporating over the course of a week or so. (it was a nice sunny week where I live) When it is dry it is easier to spread out. After it was completely dry I added it to my grass lawn, and the grass absolutely loves it. After applying it and after the first rain event the grass turned into a nice dark green color, where it always used to have a much lighter green color. It grows more dense and faster. And it grows upright instead of staying flat on the surface.
If you consider how much we depend on animals for our own food chain that eat grass, and for a whole range of other products as well, then it would already make a huge difference if we would be able to make grass grow better, and healthier, with a higher nutritious value, if it would be applied on a global scale.
More dense grass per square meter or yard also means less water evaporation. And it also means that there are more micro organisms and insects, which are the best land cultivators that you can have. Because all those organisms combined provide nutrients to the soil, and they create passageways for the water to be soaked up by the soil. For home owners that also means a direct saving on the water bill, and in general much less CO2 emissions because less fresh purified city water goes to waste on watering the lawn.
It also means that less forests or maybe no forests at all have to be cut for agriculture and the food production for our animals. Because with charcoal you can grow much more grass with a much higher quality and nutritious value then before on the same square meter or yard.
I have no personal experience with the growth of other crops, but I have seen a lot of information about this subject, and it appears to be that other crops benefit from the charcoal as well.
Thank you for taking the time to post so we can learn too.
Two words Solar pyrolysis. The syngas can then be used to run an internal combustion engine. I've got a prototype pyrplysis chamber with a retort that can either be used to heat the biochar or divert the gas for I.C.engine use.
My 4 year old pear trees have fruit so large, one broke my wife's toe! This stuff works!!!
I was thinking of something similar.
There needs to be more of this on youtube, really i want more.
This! Is one of our BIG opportunity.
Wonderful, I wish I had a video as great as this one!
totally, completely amazing!
WOah that video was BLooDy amazing I have subscribed and Im checking out your other videos peter
This is great.
Awesome job
Very interesting, great video!
But they do not address the microbial anomalies found in terra preta
Does anyone know if it's good to crush up remains from the campfire and sprinkle it in the garden? What is the difference between the coal and ash from there to biochar?
Parasuniversal.com just that there is less coal and more ash.
Parasuniversal.com leave the ash if your soil is alkaline, western, otherwise crush and put into compost first . Just my opinion
Superthrive, coco coir, recharge, mykos, terrapreta(biochar),compost, kelp, humic acid, earthworm castings, fish shrimp crab meal, bat guano, compost teas and peatmoss is athe worlds best soil mix
hella good quality
thanks for the information.
best video ever
Your a youtube star
I watched all of your videos
Amazing Job What Software do you use?
nice really this was sooo amazing
very appropriate information.
Cool...I like
lovely
Hi Ching, - - please do a little more research to understand the process. Slow biochar (more efficient conversion) utilises the leaf and stork material left over from the harvest by pyrolysis at 400 degrees Celsius. As the man said up to 50% of the carbon captured by the growing plant is turned into boichar, return that and your biochar component increases and is permanently sequestered in the soil. Very efficient and effective soil improvement.
added like and faved,great job!!
i like i like :P cool video tahnk you for this one
kudos. sick video.
i sooooooooooo loved the video :) :) :)
thankkks for your nice videos :P
-good!
This vid was amazinnnngg!
And in. 2021 they are still slashing and burning. So lots of time spend learning and still nothing learned.
youtube? has a new star
pardon me but the other side of by making bio-char using wood if done here in my country in a large scale may probably will cause denudation of our forest..(. this is only my observation ) thus will greatly affect global warming and of course flashfloods...but your presentation is truly educational..tnx
do we really know that terra preta was made by using biochar and does it really last as presumably organisms in this now healthy soil are very active ? I have an open mind but i have heard that improvement is only really noticeable in tropical soils .One thing i do realize is that soils vary a lot even in the same country and even in the same field i would like to see lab experiments under controls. Anecdotal evidence is of no second hand use .
World wide when you test various soils for cation exchange capacity, typical sandy soils range from 3-5, very good loamy clay soils range from 10 to 22 ish and the grass lands in central usa that were built by the bison and very fertile would be 25 to 28. They tested terra pretta soils and obtained readings as high as 222. That is two hundred and twenty two. Must be something to this.
Youre amazing
SUBED!!!
Im Lovin this :P
I
(Best CLip I Have SEEn TOday By Far - SUbbed XD)
i could? just marry you
thumbs up this comment if this video made you kick a squirrel.
Omg? thats really good.
