Drivers

Due to factors such as an increased demand for organic food, heightened health consciousness, and improved consumer purchasing power, the organic food industry is set for substantial growth in the years to come. However, traditional farming methods remain prevalent in rural areas, as they are capable of producing greater yields. With the support of government and corporate initiatives, the use of biochar in mixed farming, zero tillage farming, and biodynamic agriculture is predicted to expand rapidly.

Restrains

The biomass-based pyrolysis reactor is designed to produce biochar by applying specific conditions for heating, gas flow rate, residence time, and temperature. In addition to biochar, the process also generates byproducts such as gas and bio-oil. However, past research has identified certain drawbacks associated with the use of biochar in agricultural land. These disadvantages encompass a decline in worm population, the elimination of crop residues, potential contamination risk, soil compaction during application, and the possibility of land loss due to erosion. These factors could adversely affect the environment and may have implications for the market in the anticipated timeframe.

Trend

The use of biochar in agriculture has led to a surge in market growth, especially in developing nations where the benefits of biochar, such as enhanced soil fertility and improved soil properties, have been recognized. This has resulted in healthier crop production and increased efficiency, thereby promoting proper and effective land cultivation while also reducing emissions. In both developed and developing countries, the agricultural sector is adopting technology to incorporate biochar into their farming practices.
