We’re here to help you succeed

Picture your soil becoming a lively ecosystem, bustling with microbial activity and essential nutrients. Genesis Biochar achieves precisely that. With a lifespan of hundreds of years in the soil, it serves as a reliable carbon sequestration method, aiding in the fight against climate change while enhancing soil fertility. When integrated into soil, Genesis Biochar resembles a sprawling city of mansions, offering ample space for life and nutrients to flourish. Its impact can be likened to the vital role coral reefs play in oceanic ecosystems. In essence, it transforms soil into a flourishing habitat conducive to robust plant growth and overall soil health.

Made in Montana, Genesis Biochar is a carbon-rich, porous material created by pyrolyzing white wood forest biomass in a high-temperature, low-oxygen environment. This process produces two types of carbon: stable carbon and labile carbon. The stable carbon is highly resistant to decomposition, remaining locked in the soil for hundreds, even thousands, of years, providing long-term carbon sequestration. The labile carbon, on the other hand, is more readily broken down by soil microbes, releasing nutrients that support microbial activity and plant growth in the short term.

Genesis Biochar is 100% compliant with regenerative farming and sustainable organic practices. It is both Biopreferred and OMRI Listed, making it a powerful tool for soil enhancement. It significantly improves soil fertility, boosts water retention, and acts as a reliable carbon sequestration method. Biochar helps your soil retain essential nutrients like calcium, magnesium, and potassium through its high Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC), which prevents these nutrients from leaching away during rain or irrigation. By enhancing CEC, Genesis Biochar ensures that nutrients remain available to plants for longer periods, promoting healthier crops and soil. 

In addition to increasing Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC), Genesis Biochar also increases Anion Exchange Capacity (AEC). AEC refers to the soil’s ability to retain negatively charged ions, such as nitrate, phosphate, and sulfate. By adding biochar, which has a high surface area and negatively charged particles, the soil can hold onto these essential nutrients more effectively, improving nutrient availability and retention. This increase in both CEC and AEC makes Genesis Biochar a powerful tool for improving overall soil health and ensuring that plants have access to both cations and anions for optimal growth.

• Boost Crop Yields: Genesis Biochar improves soil fertility, even in poor conditions, leading to higher crop yields.
• Fertilizer Efficiency: By increasing CEC and AEC, Genesis Biochar optimizes nutrient retention and reduces fertilizer runoff, leaching, and percolation.
• Moisture Retention: The high surface area of biochar helps the soil retain moisture, ensuring plant resilience during dry spells and reducing the need for frequent irrigation.
• Microbial Growth: Biochar creates a habitat for beneficial soil microbes, promoting healthy microbial populations essential for nutrient cycling, disease resistance, and the uptake of essential nutrients and micronutrients 
• Disease Protection: Biochar helps protect against both foliar and soil-borne diseases, fostering healthier plants by enhancing soil structure and microbial activity.
• Nutrient Density: Biochar promotes the growth of nutrient-dense crops that are vital for human health and vitality.

Genesis Compost is a multi-input, nutrient-rich organic blend that is OMRI Listed, ensuring it meets the highest standards for organic gardening and farming. The compost provides immediate nutrient release, improving soil structure and introducing a diverse range of beneficial microorganisms.

Key Benefits of Genesis Compost

• Improves Soil Structure: Adds organic matter that enhances soil aeration and water retention.
• Boosts Plant Health: Provides immediate nutrients to improve plant growth and disease resistance.
• Microbial Activity: Introduces beneficial microorganisms that help break down organic matter and enhance nutrient cycling.
• Nutrient Availability: Helps make nutrients more available to plants, promoting healthier, more productive crops.


In addition to offering Genesis Biochar and Genesis Compost separately, we also offer a Biochar-Compost Mix. This mix combines the long-term carbon sequestration benefits of biochar with the immediate nutrient availability of compost. The Biochar-Compost Mix not only enhances microbial activity but also inoculates the soil with essential microorganisms, nutrients, and micronutrients, effectively “filling the tank.” Compost serves to populate the soil with a thriving community of microbes that helps “fuel” nutrient cycling and boosts the biochar’s ability to retain and release nutrients. The addition of compost also increases Anion Exchange Capacity (AEC)—the soil’s ability to retain negatively charged ions like nitrate, phosphate, and sulfate, while the biochar increases Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC), improving nutrient retention and plant access to both cations and anions.

When white wood forest biomass is pyrolyzed to create Genesis Biochar, the carbon is stabilized and stored in a form that resists decomposition. The stable carbon in biochar acts as a permanent carbon sink in the soil, effectively locking carbon away and helping mitigate climate change. This long-term carbon storage reduces the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere. The labile carbon in the biochar provides readily available nutrients for plants, encouraging microbial activity and boosting soil health. By combining biochar with compost, you get the benefits of both long-term carbon sequestration and immediate nutrient availability.

Key Benefits of Genesis Biochar & Compost Mix

• Boost Crop Yields: Genesis Biochar improves soil fertility, even in poor conditions, leading to higher crop yields when combined with compost.
• Fertilizer Efficiency: The Biochar/Compost Mix reduces fertilizer runoff, leaching, and percolation, optimizing nutrient use and reducing agricultural pollution.
• Moisture Retention: The mix helps retain moisture in the soil, enhancing plant resilience during dry spells.
• Microbial Growth: Biochar creates a habitat for beneficial soil microbes, while compost inoculates the soil with even more microbial life, improving nutrient cycling and disease resistance.
• Disease Protection: This combination helps protect against both foliar and soil-borne diseases, leading to healthier plants.
• Nutrient Density: The Biochar/Compost Mix promotes the growth of nutrient-dense crops that are vital for human health and vitality.


• Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC) refers to the soil’s ability to hold onto positively charged ions (cations), such as calcium, magnesium, and potassium. Genesis Biochar increases CEC by providing more surface area and negatively charged particles that attract and hold these essential nutrients, preventing them from leaching away during rain or irrigation.
 
• Anion Exchange Capacity (AEC) refers to the soil’s ability to hold onto negatively charged ions (anions), such as nitrate, phosphate, and sulfate. Compost, rich in organic matter and humic substances, enhances both CEC and AEC, providing additional anionic sites that hold vital nutrients. This ensures that both cations and anions are available to plants, reducing the need for chemical fertilizers and improving nutrient retention.
 

Together, Genesis Biochar and Genesis Compost improve both CEC and AEC, resulting in soil that can retain and exchange nutrients more effectively, leading to healthier plant growth and improved soil structure.
