The local DPI ran a free one day workshop for farmers on Soil microbiology last month. Pretty basic but The Message is getting though; though not one mention of charcoal.
Also went to a lecture by Government Landcare person, on another topic, who said in passing "The most important thing we can do is to add carbon to the soil." Again no awareness of charcoal's catalytic effect on soil biota.

Fascinating.
Still after all these years, people know little of the microbes beneath our feet and beneficial biochar. Feed the soil and it will feed you.
