Beyond its traditional use as soil amendment, biochar has a potential as a functional feed additive with measurable biological and environmental effects. Studies across poultry, swine, and ruminant systems report improvements in digestive stability, feed utilization, and emission profiles, although results depend on the type of biochar and how it is applied. Let’s take a closer look at the biochar’s potential as a powerful additive to animal feed. What Makes Biochar Differen

Biochar, a charcoal-like substance made by heating organic materials with limited oxygen, is a powerful tool for sustainable gardening and agriculture. Its porous structure, with a massive surface area, acts like a sponge in the soil, holding onto nutrients and water for plants to use. However, freshly produced biochar can initially surprise gardeners by grabbing nutrients away from plants. This is where "charging biochar" becomes important. With the right charging material
