OUR INVOLVEMENT IN AGRICULTURE
Biochar for soil amendment: Powerful natural and ecological fertilizer
Biochar is a natural supplement to the soil. It allows fertility, resilience and sustainability of your crops throughout the year.
Obtained via biomass pyrolysis, it has a porous structure that retains water and nutrients, limiting leaching and reducing the need for irrigation and fertilizers. It therefore improves soil structure, promoting aeration, root growth and beneficial microbial activity. In short, it accelerates the regeneration of land impoverished by time.
At the same time, it plays a key role in carbon sequestration, storing CO₂ sustainably while limiting GHG emissions. Its adsorption power also allows it to trap certain pollutants and protect groundwater.
Easy to integrate into agricultural practices, it offers a natural and sustainable solution to increase soil productivity while contributing to the fight against climate change and the preservation of resources.
For productive and healthy crops, consider biochar as an agricultural supplement.
Xylo-Carbone holds Ecocert certification for inputs approved for organic farming for the product categories of fertilisers and crop support. The company is audited annually in accordance with the Canadian Organic Program.
Biochar for animal welfare: Hygienic purifier of the animal environment
Charcoal has a key role in animal welfare thanks to its absorbent, purifying and enriching properties.
As a feed additive in the feed, it contributes to animal welfare. Seasonal changes often lead to variations in animal feed, and biocarbon helps reduce disruptions to animal digestion.
Its use in bedding absorbs moisture, neutralizes bad odors and reduces the proliferation of bacteria. Thus, it contributes to the effort of better hygiene for domestic animals or animals from the farm.
In the field of water purification, activated biochar is an effective natural filter, removing impurities, pesticides and heavy metals, which improves the quality of drinking water for farms.
It is also used in veterinary care, including treating wounds, speeding up healing, and absorbing toxins in case of infections or bites.
In addition, its integration into organic farming improves soil quality, reduces the acidity of pastures and limits the use of antibiotics by strengthening the health of herds.
Thanks to these multiple applications, charcoal is an essential element for animal welfare, offering a natural and ecological alternative for animal husbandry and care.
With active biochar, animal welfare becomes much simpler.
Biochar for filtration: a natural filter for the ecological preservation of healthy water
Biochar is emerging as a natural and effective solution for water filtration in agricultural environments, meeting the challenges of pollution and water quality.
In agriculture, biochar optimizes irrigation by purifying water and limiting the spread of toxic substances, thus promoting better plant growth and optimal nutrient absorption.
It can be used as a filtering barrier at the edge of fields, since it prevents the leaching of agricultural pollutants, preventing their dispersion in waterways and contributing to the preservation of flora.
Economical and sustainable, biochar offers an environmentally friendly and cost-effective alternative to traditional filtration systems. Easy to use in different forms (granules, filters or powders), it can be regenerated and recycled as an organic amendment, improving the structure of the soil.
With biochar, agriculture is entering a new era, one that is more environmentally friendly and more efficient.
