Biochar Breakthroughs!

Join Mark Highland, The Organic Mechanic for a conversation about Biochar. This session will define Biochar as a soil amendment, describe ideal characteristics of biochar based on intended use, discuss benefits of Biochar application, and go into detail about current USDA programs farmers can pursue to receive funding compensation for on-farm Biochar application. Participants will walk away knowing what Biochar is, what properties are most important when comparing Biochar test results, the long-term benefits of applying Biochar, and how to apply for USDA funding.
