Video on Truecoco's Circular Economy
About the Project
Truecoco partners with local farmers to use their agricultural waste - coconut husks - and convert it into biochar. The biochar will then be sold back to the farmers at low rate for soil amendment. This improves the crop yields, provides additional revenue and increases the well-being of the farmers and their families. The circular model converts biomass into stable biochar, durably storing carbon and returning enriched soil inputs to farmers.
By 2030, Truecoco targets removing more than 250,000 tCO₂ while improving the livelihoods of over 30,000 smallholder farmers.
