Allan No I do not. I am trying to write up some proposals to prove that its a viable substitute for certain agriculture amendments but I am way out of my element and am looking for contacts to work with. I saw your post on one of the biochar forums and would be curious to hear what sort of feed back you got. I've been looking for folks but not getting much in return. They all seem focused on the developing world. In a nut shell I have a 45 acre dry gravel pit that has just be reclaimed. The soil is no longer stable, being a mix a clay, shale, and orginal farm soil overburden and I am looking at ways to bring it back into Ag use. Right now its seems the best way to go is cover crops and animals, cover crop, mow and subsoil...repeat. Biochar looked interesting, especially given our Emerald Ash borer problems here. Its estimated that our county alone will lose 10 to 12% of ALL trees (which happen to be ash) and we need to have a couple options on what to do with that organic matter.
