Buma Foundation

We produce Biochar here at the Buma Foundation Tiko, which is a type of charcoal that's specifically designed to be used as a soil amendment 😊. It's made by heating organic materials like wood, crop residues, or manure in a low-oxygen environment, a process called pyrolysis.

This creates a porous, carbon-rich material that can help improve soil fertility, structure, and overall health.

Some benefits of biochar include:
- Improving soil water retention and aeration
- Increasing nutrient availability for plants
- Supporting beneficial microbial growth
- Sequestering carbon in the soil

It's often used in sustainable agriculture and gardening practices.

You can join us in the great community project.
