Congratulations to Marta Camps Arbestain, Associate Professor Biochar & Soil Science Research at Massey University, who has been appointed as Chair for the IBI board. It is an impressive lineup of biochar experts on the board.

The only NZ connection on the Advisory Committee is Hailong Wang, Zhejiang A & F University, China, who was working with biochar as part of his previous position with Scion in NZ.
