Biochar is an age old method for clearing brushwood and increasing fertility for food plants to grow. It also helps fix carbon in the soil.
The chappy featured on Countryfile is a farmer whose second income comes from being a tree surgeon and he researched biochar - fancy charcoal - as a way of recycling one waste product to enhance the main activity. It's a good soil improver but also improves the activity of good gut bacteria in his cattle so renders them less gassy but also, apparently, calms them down as they're more comfy.
