Yeah I just mean purely from the fire of making the biochar if you are arid. Those grasses are great but if you can grow maize, sorghum or sugar cane they draw even more carbon down into the soil. Guess you could char the stems too at the end of the season.

Perhaps if you have some good spots already you can do an IMO capture there and move those microorgnism elsewhere to the rest of the place. You could also make am IPMO by doing an IMO capture with either frass or ant bodies to capture microorganism that break down chitin that will kill the ants. Make it into a compost tea and pour into into the nest. Orange oil could also be an option if you have that.

Good luck perhaps go watch some of Geoff Lawton's videos for inspiration certainly dry and arid over in Jordan.
