Bamboo Plant Material Expansion

The farm is currently expanding into the production of solid core bamboo for use in charcoal production. The farm is working to mass produce bamboo seedlings for sale to farmers who can then grow the crop as a cash crop by producing charcoal. The major source of cooking and heating in Zambia and much of Africa.

This will reduce the need for deforestation and possibly bring down the cost of charcoal, which can currently account for more than 20% of Zambia’s annual income.
