Could Hemp Be the Best Material For Bio-Char?

First off, WHAT IS BIO-CHAR?

Biochar is charcoal that is produced by pyrolysis of biomass, yet in the absence of oxygen, and is used as a soil ameliorate for both carbon sequestration and soil health benefits. Biochar is a stable solid that is rich in carbon and can endure in soil for thousands of years.

One hectare of industrial hemp can absorb 15 tonnes of CO2 per hectare. Hemp's rapid growth makes it one of the fastest CO2-to-biomass conversion tools available, more efficient than agroforestry. It is possible to grow two crops per year so CO2 absorption can be doubled. The growing cycle for hemp is approximately 108 to 120 days.

Biochar is a carbon-rich organic material, an organic amendment, and a by-product derived from biomass by pyrolysis under high-temperature and low-oxygen conditions. In addition, the biochar amendment to the soil proved to be beneficial to improve soil quality and retain nutrients, thereby enhancing plant growth.

IS THERE A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CHARCOAL AND BIOCHAR?

Biochar is used as a soil amendment, and charcoal is used as a fuel. Well made biochar will be lighter in weight and contain less BTUs per volume than charcoal.

Did The DEA just make CBD products illegal?

From the Hemp sTalk Podcast - Episode 5: Can bio-char save the planet?

The DEA published its IFR (Interim Final Rule) on Aug. 21, 2020, to implement the Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018 (Farm Bill, or AIA). The Farm Bill defined "hemp" out of the Controlled Substances Act, creating a legal distinction between hemp and marijuana. This IFR criminalizes work in progress hemp extract, a fundamental component of any consumer CBD product.

Delta-8 is a compound similar to delta-9 but with less psychoactive effects. The hemp-derived delta-8 market has grown because delta-8 products can be delivered at near pure levels. However, delta-8 is specifically scheduled under the same drug code as "marihuana" (code 7370).

Hemp is now legal in Ghana!

In 2020, the West African nation of Ghana passed legislation allowing hemp to be grown for industrial or medicinal purposes.

The legislation allows the government to “grant a license for the cultivation of cannabis which has not more than 0.3% THC content on a dry-weight basis for industrial purposes for obtaining fiber or seed or for medicinal purposes.”

Hemp is now legal!

HEMP IS LEGAL (Dec. 20, 2018) blog image.png

Today, December 20th, the 2018 Farm Bill was signed into law legalizing industrial hemp after decades of the crop being caught up in broader cannabis prohibition.

“This law marks the first change in the federal classification of the cannabis plant since it was initially classified as a schedule I controlled substance by Congress in 1970, and paves the way for the first federally-sanctioned commercial hemp grows since World War II.”

- Paul Armentano, NORML Deputy Director

Industrial hemp will now be treated like an agricultural commodity, not a controlled substance. The bill also stipulates that hemp crops will be covered under the Federal Crop Insurance Act, meaning farmers will be entitled to insurance coverage in the event that they experiences crop loss. At KOH, we can’t agree more with Paul Armentano when he says “the significance of this law change should not be underemphasized.” The myriad of benefits to hemp use and production will quickly prove to be a reliable and sustainable solution to many of our wasteful everyday products.


Legalizing Hemp!

Legalizing Hemp!

After decades of misinformation, the United States has taken steps to change its outdated laws about industrial hemp, the non-drug variety of the cannabis plant. Amid the rising demand for hemp products – from protein powder to milk to lotion to fabric – American farmers have been unable to tap into the robust industry.
