Mick Jones
I’m Mick Jones — a Welsh farmer with over 40 years in agriculture and 30 years in renewable energy and biomass engineering. On this channel, I share my journey as the Biochar Farmer, combining traditional farming with cutting-edge biochar technology.
Here you’ll find:
Farm updates and field walks – showing how biochar improves soil health and supports regenerative agriculture.
Engineering insights – behind the scenes with biomass pyrolysis, renewable energy systems, and biochar production.
Sustainable farming in practice – from silage cuts to soil testing, showing how biochar fits into real-world agriculture.
This channel is part of my work at Woodtek Engineering, where we design and build the C1000 pyrolysis plant, now used in farming and community-scale renewable projects.
Subscribe if you’re interested in farming, soil, and carbon-negative energy — and join me as I explore how biochar can transform both agriculture and the climate challenge.
