Kane, I can not believe the hype about such a sorry thing and the conflicting statements. Use crop reside and manure to make biochar which takes thousands of years to break down. I am not interested in it for farming and will await a response from a farmer if one ever uses it. Look at the energy it takes to make the stuff even out of non-farm waste. Composting is the way to go. Some people who want to become famous are using biochar to get their name before the world just like Al Gore and his sky-is-falling talk. There is plenty of proof he and biochar fans are wrong if one is seeking Truth.
