As the pioneering leader in developing, manufacturing and marketing smart biochar-based products, we aspire to be a global catalyst in the transition to regenerative agriculture.
We achieve this by building long term soil health, sequestering carbon and improving the livelihoods and climate resilience of farmers in South East Asia. We are a team of ambitious and results-oriented group of people who want to make a difference and our impact grows as we scale. We were founded in Barcelona and have been operating in Cambodia since 2019 and in Vietnam in 2024.
We bring together 20 years’ experience in sustainability and business that has enabled us to create long-term solutions to the vicious cycle of soil degradation, poverty and climate change, and meet the needs of smallholder farmers who need to grow food with limited land and resources.
It is well known that biochar was a common practice to enrich soils for many traditional communities across the world. We apply this ancient knowledge to today’s reality where on the one hand we see an accumulation of biomass, and on the other very depleted soils.
At HUSK, our process starts with rice. The rice plant absorbs carbon dioxide, and we use the husk to create products for the soil: organic biochar, carbon based fertilizers and biopesticides in Cambodia, using a smokeless process known as pyrolysis, we have created the world’s first biochar plant in a rice mill. When the farmers apply our products on their crops, the carbon is buried in the soil, where it remains for hundreds of years.
HUSK VENTURES SL has received support from ICEX and co-financing from the European FEDER Fund within the framework of the ICEX Next program. The aim of this support is to contribute to the international development of the company and its environment.
