Reduce Input Costs While Building Soil

Biochar is a one-time application that pays back over years through improved soil function.

1

Drought Resilience

Biochar’s porous structure helps soil retain water, keeping crops productive during dry periods while reducing irrigation needs.

More moisture in the root zone means fields stay resilient when the rains pause.
2

Soil Health

Biochar improves soil structure and creates space for roots and beneficial microbes. It also retains nutrients in the root zone, making them available to crops over multiple growing seasons.

Improved structure and nutrient retention extend productivity beyond the season of application.
3

Carbon Removal

When applied under approved methodologies, biochar qualifies for carbon removal credits. Each credit represents one ton of CO₂ sequestered and can be retired or sold into the carbon market.

Carbon credits can defray costs or become a new revenue stream tied to verified sequestration.

Where Biochar Works

Valorize works with operations ranging from 500 to 100,000+ acres.
We match biochar specifications to soil conditions and crop requirements.

Row Crops & Grains

Row Crops & Grains

Corn, soybeans, wheat, and other row crops benefit from improved nutrient retention and water-holding capacity. Biochar reduces nitrogen leaching and can decrease fertilizer requirements by 10–30%.

Best for: sandy soils, irrigated fields, high-input systems
Perennial Crops & Orchards

Perennial Crops & Orchards

Coffee, cocoa, fruit trees, and vineyards see long-term gains from biochar's permanent soil improvement. One-time applications at planting deliver returns for the life of the crop.

Best for: tree establishment, drought-prone regions, premium crops
Vegetable & Specialty Crops

Vegetable & Specialty Crops

High-value produce benefits from disease suppression, improved root development, and water retention. Biochar is especially effective in greenhouse and controlled-environment systems.

Best for: greenhouses, organic production, high-turnover beds
Degraded & Marginal Land

Degraded & Marginal Land

Biochar can restore productivity to worn-out, compacted, or contaminated soils. It improves structure, increases organic matter, and locks carbon into land that might otherwise remain fallow.

Best for: reclamation, cover crop systems, conservation programs
