- The COVID-19 pandemic has led to disruptions in the supply chain, decreased production and reduced demand for some end-use applications. Restrictions on international trade, closure of borders and reduced production capacity have made it difficult for manufacturers to obtain the necessary raw materials and transport finished products to customers. This has caused an increase in prices and delays in delivery for a few biochar products. On the other hand, there has been an increase in demand for certain biochar products owing to their potential for use in soil remediation and sustainable agriculture.
- Ukraine is a major producer of biomass feedstocks such as wood chips, straw, and agricultural residues which are used as raw materials for producing biochar. The conflict has disrupted the supply chains for these feedstocks which lead to shortages and higher prices for biochar producers.
