Now, more than 100 producers supply biochar for gardens, turf, tree and landscape maintenance, golf courses, orchards, vineyards, horticulture, field crops, forest and habitat restoration, storm water and remediation. More than 60 companies supply carbonizers, from backyard devices to full scale industrial systems. Thousands of peer reviewed research papers are published each year.
