BioChar Moso Bamboo BioChar  Moso Bamboo is the most important commercial bamboo species in China. It covers almost 3 million hectares. This fast growing perennial, reaches up to 20 metre in height and has a diameter of between 6 - 18 cm and is ready for harvest in 4-8 years. With this short life cycle Moso Bamboo BioChar plays a valued role in carbon sequestration. China being grossly deficient in timber to satisfy the population's demand for wood, established bamboo forests to meet part of the shortfall. Moso Bamboo has excellent timber and shoot qualities and is relatively easy to process into biochar. In Japan Moso BioChar is regarded as an organic product, since no chemical fertilizers or fossil fuel are used in the growing or charring process.  O'Grady
Rural imports large stocks of boxed, finely ground Moso BioChar direct
from a trusted producer, under
a special AQIS permit, after quality assurance checks in China by the National
Bamboo Research Institute.  BioChar improves soil health: Finely ground Moso BioChar provides a safe habitat for beneficial soil bacteria and fungal hyphae. Having a surface area greater than 350 square metre per gram, which is 3-5 times greater than BioChars made from wood. It is more suitable as a carrier of microbes and organic nutrition than wood biochars.. As well as providing soil microbes with a safe haven from grazing protozoa, the Biochar acts as a sponge holding on to plant nutrients, moisture and organic matter and aids in creating beneficial long lasting complexes with soil colloids. Moso BioChar also helps to detoxify the soil of inorganic chemicals and fertilizers. The approximate analysis, 71.5% Carbon, 2.2% silicon, 4.1% Ash, 0.24% Nirogen, 8.7% Oxygen and 1.8% Hydrogen.  Moso BioChar is packed in 14 kg cardboard boxes enclosed in a plastic liner. Box dimensions L49 x W29 x H29 cm.Each pallet contains 40 boxes @ 14kg of Moso BioChar.
