Organic Farmer Uses Biochar – Quick Look at First Year Results

He found the growth differences in his sunflowers and beans to be very significant.
Join Biochar Bob in this quick look at the results and see how biochar worked in his farm! We’ll be following up with a longer, more complete visit of his farm once his harvest numbers are in. Stay Tuned!
