Carbon Sequestration and Grassland Restoration In India
This community-led biochar project is one of the world’s largest, issuing ~15,000 tCO₂e per month with nearly 100,000 tCO₂e already delivered. The project tackles the urgent challenge of carbon sequestration by transforming the invasive Prosopis juliflora and cotton stalk residues into biochar, a stable form of carbon with long-term climate benefits.
Beyond carbon sequestration, the project delivers significant environmental and social co-benefits. It contributes to the restoration of degraded, invasive-infested grasslands, reduces harmful crop burning practices, and promotes the use of biochar as a soil amendment. This improves soil health by enhancing pH balance, water retention, and nutrient availability, supporting more resilient and productive agriculture.
The project aims to capture carbon from biomass , enabling durable carbon removal, with large volumes of CO₂ permanently sequestered. Over the first five years, the project is expected to sequester approximately 690,825 tonnes of CO₂ equivalent, averaging 138,165 tonnes CO₂eq per year.
