Natural farming - increase soil fertility with local microbes
Natural Farming utilizes natural resources made locally by farmers themselves with natural farm by-products aided by locally available indigenous micro-organisms
Natural Farming results in superior agricultural products with the high productivity and minimum cost and labor by maximizing nature’s potential.
- Natural Farming farmers produce their own agricultural resources/material easily with natural resources and agro-livestock by-products from the farm.
- Natural Farming encourages the combined agriculture and livestock farm to cross-utilize the by-products to make the animal feed and natural fertilizers. Natural Farming principles and technology has already been established for livestock farming as well as for crops.
- In Natural Farming, the application of the natural fertilizer/feed is managed based on the Nutritive Cycle Theory.
