Black polyethylene “mulch film” gets tucked snugly around crop rows, clear plastic sheeting covers hoop houses, and most farmers use plastic seed trays, irrigation tubes, and fertilizer bags. These synthetic polymer products have often been used to help boost yields up to 60 percent and make water and pesticide use more efficient.

These severe conditions have a tremendous impact on our food system, affecting everything from crop yields to working conditions on farms. Farms Adapt to Climate Change Sorghum—popular among young, BIPOC, and under-resourced farmers—has extra long roots that allow it to withstand drought and sequester greenhouse gasses.

Pollutant Binding: Biochar acts like a sponge in soil due to the relatively high surface area which is useful for capturing very small particulates, making it great at trapping heavy metals, pesticides, and organic pollutants. Enhanced Crop Yields: In nutrient-poor soils, biochar application can increase crop yields.
