Biochar’s Effect on Corn Productivity
Applying biochar on corn could increase harvest by 95% and reduce fertilizer use by 50%.*
The harvests have larger sizes, longer length, and a heavier dry weight.*
*Based on WasteX's own trials on corn in Indonesia

What They Say
We usually sell corn cobs as fuel and planting media, but oftentimes it quickly rots and hard to sell. However, by working with WasteX, the waste can be processed into high-value biochar, which is useful as a soil fertility enhancer.
