About
Qualterra is a Washington State-based agricultural technology company that produces biochar from agricultural and forestry biomass at its Cheney, WA facility using proprietary Biomass Processing Units, and also manufactures these units for third parties. In April 2025 its Cheney project became only the third biochar project globally listed on the Climate Action Reserve registry under CAR’s U.S. Biochar Protocol, with 3Degrees as carbon partner; in September 2025 it was awarded a fifth USDA SBIR grant to scale its next-generation BPU. The company also offers plant propagation and molecular plant testing services.
