Donna,
    I have been hearing about the benefits of charcoal to soil fertility from a friend who grows sugarcane in Mexico. My question is: how much a ton does it cost and where can I purchase it for a "reasonable" price. It wouldn't be convenient for me to produce it--although I have ample supply of raw material to do so.
