Google Research initiated its 2026 R&D Awards, allocating up to $450,000 to advance biochar production from underutilized, high-moisture biomass. The initiative targets preprocessing and pyrolysis breakthroughs to overcome technical processing constraints, expand global organic feedstock sourcing, and ensure verifiable long-term carbon permanence.

A recent study in Scientific Reports by Saowalak Somboon and colleagues shows that co-applying rice straw-derived biochar with urea reduces total paddy nitrogen loss to 33 percent of inputs, while achieving a peak grain yield of 11,823 kilograms per hectare in continuously flooded rice fields.
