Dark Earth Carbon is a naturally rich soil amendment inspired by ancient practices and enhanced by modern science. Often associated with “terra preta” or “dark earth” found in the Amazon basin, Dark Earth Carbon incorporates biochar—a stable, carbon-rich form of charcoal—created by pyrolyzing organic materials under limited oxygen.
This process locks carbon into a solid form for hundreds to thousands of years, preventing its release into the atmosphere. When added to soil, it enhances fertility, retains moisture, and fosters microbial life, making it a powerful tool for sustainable agriculture and carbon sequestration.
Beyond its agricultural benefits, Dark Earth Carbon plays a crucial role in combating climate change. By converting agricultural and forestry waste into biochar rather than allowing it to decompose or burn, we reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
This carbon-negative technology not only improves soil health and crop yields but also helps mitigate the effects of climate change by drawing down atmospheric CO₂ and storing it safely in the ground.
As interest in regenerative farming and carbon markets grows, Dark Earth Carbon stands out as a scalable, nature-based solution for a more resilient and climate-smart future.
