"Biochar and Moisture Boost: A Game-Changer for Emission Cuts in Farming"

A study from Bangor University reveals that managing water tables and using Biochar in peat soils can significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions while ensuring robust agriculture.

• Research from Bangor University, published in Biochar (2025), indicates that raising the water table alongside Biochar application can cut greenhouse gas emissions in peat-based farming.
• The study found substantial reductions in carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide emissions, highlighting the potential of Biochar as a sustainable solution for agriculture.
• Using Biochar, which is derived from biomass, in conjunction with proper water management practices can enhance soil health and crop yields while lowering greenhouse gas emissions.
