A little history about BIOCHAR
In Amazonia, a great agricultural civilization enhanced poor endemic forest soils with terra preta, (otherwise known as the first biochar), to feed tens of thousands of people.
Today, sustainable growers around the world are rediscovering the value of organic soil enhancers such as biochar as the world struggles under climate change, environmental degradation (in particular our soils), and human poverty.
Here at KIWICHAR we are able to produce bespoke blends for each client and each blend can be tailored to match specific on-site characteristics and/or relate to independent soil nutrient test results through our alliance with Hill Laboratories. This makes us effectively a ‘one-stop-shop’ for anyone wishing to develop their own site-specific blend or a long-term programme of sustainable soil improvement.
