U.S. Biochar Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Technology (Pyrolysis, Gasification), By Application (Agriculture, Animal Feed, Health & Beauty Products), By State, And Segment Forecasts, 2023 - 2030
U.S. Biochar Market Growth & Trends:
The U.S. biochar market size is expected to reach USD 478.5 million by 2030, with an estimated CAGR of 11.3 % from 2023 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc.. The industry growth is majorly driven by the rising need for soil remediation and the ascending demand for organic food in the country. Increased population density and human activities such as the rise in infrastructure and industrial development have led to the degradation of soil. Some of the major causes of declined soil quality include deforestation, overgrazing, industrialization, increased agricultural activities, and natural calamities.
According to the Earthworm Foundation, in 2021, the United States faced a significant issue with soil erosion, which resulted in an estimated cost of $67.00 billion. This cost, known as externality, is not directly paid by farmers or businesses but is often shouldered by the public sector, consumers, and future generations. Furthermore, the effects of climate change have exacerbated the challenges faced by conventional agricultural supply chains in the U.S., leading to record low wheat harvests in 2021 due to drought and a significant portion of sugar beets in a critical production region going unharvested in 2019 due to flooding.
These factors have generated the need for soil remediation, especially for agricultural purposes.Biochar is considered one of the most effective and safe products for soil remediation. The addition of biochar provides nutrients such as phosphorus, potassium, calcium, nitrogen, and magnesium required for plant growth. The product also improves the nutrient absorption of plants and the water-retaining capacity of the soil. Thus, the growing soil remediation in the U.S. is driving the demand for products over the period.
However, lack of awareness among farmers regarding biochar and its advantages as compared to other fertilizers is a major concern. Most of the farmers are still using synthetic pesticides for crop protection, soil amendment, and enhancement of plant growth. Factors such as the lack of consistent production standards, and varying product prices restrict the market growth. Thus, end-users including fertilizer manufacturers and farmers must be educated by soil scientists and horticulturalists about the potential benefits of using biochar. Awareness regarding the product can be increased among them via farm planning & management, crop advisors, and representatives from various seed companies.
U.S. Biochar Market Report Highlights:
- The biochar market growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for the product from agriculture industries as it is a carbon-rich, stable form of charcoal, derived from natural resources. It is thus a suitable choice in organic farming practices as it helps in increasing carbon content in the soil and is responsible for enhancing microbial activity which further results in augmenting crop productivity
- Based on technology, the gasification segment emerged significantly with a CAGR of 11.4% in 2022. Gasification technology not only produces biochar but also generates syngas, which can be used as a source of renewable energy. The syngas can be further processed to produce heat, electricity, or biofuels, providing an additional revenue stream and promoting sustainable energy production
- Based on application, the animal-feed segment emerged significantly with a CAGR of 11.1% in 2022. Biochar offers several benefits when included in animal feed including reduced methane consumption & chronic botulism, increased growth rate, improved immunity & digestion, and energy efficiency
- Companies in the U.S. market are coming up with the use of biochar in animal feed. In 2022, Pacific Biochar Benefit Corporation announced official approval of its biochar Commercial Feed License through the California Department of Food and Agriculture's Commercial Feed Regulatory Program (CFRP). This approval helped the company strengthen its position in the animal feed market in California
- California emerged as the fastest-growing state with a CAGR of 12.1% in 2022. This growth is attributed to the surging agricultural activities, growing requirements for increasing crop yields, and rising awareness among farmers about the benefits of organic products
