Regenerative farming looks to optimise the use of the ecological system and environment, in order to benefit from the natural ecosystem services that they provide.
I’m a PhD researcher at the University of Reading and founder of Earthly Biochar. My academic work and enterprise are both focused on understanding and accelerating the adoption of biochar across different farm systems in the UK and globally.
Through my PhD, I’ve been researching biochar’s potential as a tool for regenerative agriculture, particularly its role in improving soil health, water retention, and nutrient cycling. In parallel, I’ve been designing and building small-scale biochar kilns used by growers worldwide, running hands-on workshops, and collaborating with composters, horticulturalists, and land managers to test biochar in real-world contexts.
