Bamboo Logic in Portugal
Bamboo, recognized for its rapid growth, brings significant environmental benefits, including CO₂ absorption and oxygen production. Beyond its role in carbon capture, bamboo enhances soil conditions by efficiently absorbing nitrates, conserving water, preventing erosion, and aiding in soil regeneration. With a lifespan of 60 to 100 years, bamboo requires only one planting and continues to regrow swiftly after being harvested, making it an incredibly renewable resource. It is a sustainable substitute for fossil-based materials such as concrete, steel, and PVC. Bamboo’s year-round greenery creates a habitat that supports diverse ecosystems, including plants, mushrooms, insects, and animals, all while effectively retaining water.
João Ludovico, raised in the Alcoutim region of Portugal, is the plantation manager for Bamboologic's bamboo fields. He holds an MSc in Plant Sciences and Greenhouse Horticulture, with a minor in Climate-Smart Agriculture for sustainable food production, from Wageningen University in the Netherlands.
