Biochar in Congo - production

Amede Daki Bopolo explains why choosing the correct site for the production of biochar is important.

Congolese NGO ADAPEL and Biochar Fund's project in the D.R. Congo aims to solve four problems simultaneously: biochar will improve soil fertility, sequester carbon, phase out slash-and-burn farming and yield renewable energy. Thus the project fights hunger, climate change, deforestation and energy insecurity amongst some of the world's poorest people.

Project funded by the UK and Norway's Congo Basin Forest Fund, financial oversight by the African Development Bank.
