Biochar or bio-coal is used in the garden and in large-scale agriculture.
Biochar is a black, crystalline, porous, carbon-rich, odorless material.
Vegetable biochar is produced by pyrolysis of biomass, eg wood, agricultural waste or other plant materials.
Pyrolysis is a heat treatment process under reduced oxygen conditions, through which plant materials are transformed into carbon.
Thus the carbon is stabilized in a fixed form, and remains present in the long term. Once applied to the soil, it exerts its effects for 10-100 years, significantly contributing to the improvement of soil quality in the long term.
Biochar contains the micro and macro elements needed by plants (eg: Fe, Br, Cu, P, Mn, Mg), thus contributing to the increase of soil fertility and microbiological activity.
Due to its high porosity, it can retain a large amount of water in the soil.
At an application of 250-500 g/m², it helps to efficiently store nutrients, condition and improve the soil.
The effect of biochar activated with wood vinegar is fast and multiplied.
Biochar also provides effective protection against pests and fungi, improves soil biological activity, stores trace elements, increases the soil's ability to retain water, and helps aerate the soil, while reducing oxide (CO₂), nitrogen emissions and methane.
1kg of Biochar binds 3.5kg of CO₂ in the soil, thus preventing the emission of carbon dioxide.
GEKKA Biochar and Biochar+ Plus are tested, proven and ecologically certified products.
In 2019, the European Union approved the use of biochar (bio-coal) in industrial agriculture.
