Instead of burning nutrients and losing them to the atmosphere, make biochar from lower nutrient straws and corn stover and combine the biochar one part biochar with two parts manure. Use is at establishment and as top dressing. That’s a proven (Warm Heart Worldwide) combination. Let the biochar be the slow-release agent for the nutrients in the manure. That way the carbon and nutrients will cycle through the soil, promote carbon sequestration through photosynthesis and benefit both the farmer and the environment.

Again, I request help finding someone to test washing dung somewhere in Asia where cooking with dung is common.  This isn't common where my African colleagues are so I don't think they are the best testers.

Hi Stanley,

 

You inspired me.  I have colleagues in Uganda, Malawi and Kenya knee and elbow deep in dung testing your idea.  Great results so far.  They all find it very easy to soak dung and wring out the water with a woven plast 100 kg grain bags (ubiquitous in Africa).  The solution is very brown and the washed dung is much lighter in color.  And when filtered through biochar, the brown water comes out clear.  Two of them have young plants to test the brown liquid and charged biochar on.  We are waiting on the patties to dry to test as cooking fuel.  This is exciting.

 

Kevin
