TRY THIS ALSO WITH EM (EFFECTIVE MICROORGANISMS) FOR ORGANIC FARMING

Hereby I share one excellent guidance form Pro. Panfilo Tabora, EARTH UNIVERSITY, Costa Rica. It will help you for organic farming at your organic farms for higher yields.

Dear DG Patel,

If you can collect some very ripe peels of bananas, kindly gather them and put them on a plastic bag and sprinkle a bit of EM to conserve them and then keep adding more everyday until you have something like 6-7 Kg of peels can serve as your molasses, equivalent to a liter of molasses when very very ripe. You can then pound them or macerate them, but in our case we just put them together with other high carbon materials like sawdust for fermentation. With another liter of EM Activated, you can then increase your fermentation.

Remember, that the objective here is not to decompose or completely mineralize the organic matter, but simply estabilize it and initiate its slow decomposition so that it can be added to the soil with high carbon which is food to the microorganisms and therefore will increase the soil microbial diversity. One of our mistakes and we thought nothing was working was rally that we expected fast decomposition. Instead we had a stable organic mass. We were dumbfounded by what the bananas told us with outstanding high yields! from then on we changed our concepts: Away from total mineralization and accept the slow release mechanism, away from fast decomposition and therefore high lixiviation or loss of nutrients to slow and constant supply of nutrients.

While we were looking for decomposition, EM gave us something else. But what the high bananas yields told us, made us think that we were looking at the wrong concepts. Please review your concepts to see if they still fit! What is important is what the yields will tell you.


All the best!
