Descriptions
Biochar is emerging as a transformative tool in Jharkhand’s efforts to regenerate forests and promote sustainable farming. Derived from agricultural waste through pyrolysis, biochar enriches the soil, enhancing fertility, water retention, and carbon sequestration. In regions like Jharkhand, where deforestation and soil degradation are pressing concerns, biochar offers a practical and eco-friendly solution.

The application of biochar in forest regeneration helps restore degraded land by improving soil structure, supporting native tree growth, and reducing erosion. It creates favorable conditions for seedlings, contributing to long-term forest revival. At the same time, farmers in Jharkhand benefit from improved crop yields, reduced fertilizer use, and greater climate resilience through biochar-based sustainable agriculture.

Grow Billion Trees is working with local communities to expand the use of biochar across Jharkhand. By aligning ecological restoration with livelihood support, these efforts are fostering a balanced relationship between people and nature. Biochar is not just restoring forests—it’s empowering farmers and securing a greener future for the state.
