In Today’s episode, we will discuss about special ultra-low-cost and effective organic
farming technologies invented by JADAM – South Korea and approved by the USDA and used worldwide
and this technology is not patented for farmers greater good.
And the cost of input will be 100 USD per acre which is 1/50th the cost compared to
conventional farming.
Jadam Natural Fertilizers and Pesticides are very easy to make whether in small scale or
large scale farming setups.
All that is Coming up!
The word ‘organic farming’ has become one of those buzzwords you are hearing everywhere.
No wonder!
It is tragic that in today’s era of rapid agricultural production, the use of chemical
fertilizers and chemical pesticides has brought disastrous effects on public health and our
beautiful mother earth is contaminated with all left over chemicals.
Organic Farming comes to our rescue.
Organic Gardening and Farming is based on using natural methods like the use of natural
fertilizers and natural pesticides for plant growth and pest control and a complete NO
to synthetic or chemical fertilizers and pesticides.
Having said that, Let us preview two special books on organic farming using unique ultra-low
cost methods which are really effective in horticulture.
These books are even available in eBook editions at amazon.
The First book is titled: JADAM Organic Farming – The Ultra-Low Cost Agriculture – second
edition published in 2016 and the second book: JADAM Organic Pest and Disease Control with
Powerful DIY Solutions to 167 common pests and diseases, published quite recently in
June 2021 and probably I am the first to preview this book.
Firstly about the Author: Dr. Youngsang Cho, from South Korea with over 30 years expertise
in organic farming with a Master’s Degree in Horticulture and PHD in Plant pathology.
He learnt agricultural technology from his father, Hankyu Cho, who was a founder of Korea
Natural Farming (KNF).
He started his agricultural research since 1991 and developed several low cost innovative
technologies in organic farming and plant pest and disease control.
These books are translated into 20 different languages and available worldwide.
Let’s First Preview: JADAM ORGANIC FARMING – The way to Ultra-Low-Cost Agriculture.
This is the second edition of this book published in the year 2016 and the first edition was
published way back in 2013.
This book has about 379 pages.
The thing which I like most in this book: are these Four Aims of JADAM Farming Technology:
SIMPLE – principles are simple and not complicated, EASY: Easy to make and use, SCIENTIFIC: that’s
based on scientific research and results and lastly EFFECTIVE: these are highly effective
and ultra-low-cost.
Now let’s check out Contents of this book: So many interesting chapters starting from
basic principles, Soil managment tips, Natural pesticides for all types of pests and much
more.
We will quickly flip through few pages and see how useful this book is.
Some new concepts of symbiosis with grass or weeds looks interesting to me.
This is explained in detail and scientifically.
Then, The Current State of our Soil – contaminated by chemical pesticides and fertilizers.
Then about Leaf Mold Soil, Seed and Seedling Treatment using leaf mold soil.
Then, No-Till Soil Management method using landscape fabric.
Then the Main Chapter on Making Organic Fertilizers – which has topics like Natural Mineral
Water, DIY Advanced Irrigation System, DIY electric Power Distribution Board,
Then Making of JADAM Microorganism Solution (JMS), JADAM liquid Fertilizer, using boiled
potatoes, Grass, Food Waste, Human Excreta, Fish meal and a lot of other stuff, like how
we discussed on the Waste Decomposer technology by National Centre for Organic Farming, Indian
Agriculture, in one of my episodes.
Everything explained with beautiful photographs and illustrations.

Then the next main chapter on Natural Pesticides.
Jadam DIY Water Softener, Then Jadam Wetting Agent, Jadam Sulphur, Jadam Herb Solution
and much more.
Now Let’s quickly Preview the second book by the same author: with Powerful DIY Organic
Pest Control solutions with proven effectiveness.
This book is published recently in June 2021.
This book has about 506 pages.
We will quickly look through table of contents: some basic principles, then natural solutions
to various types of pests like Mites, Aphids, whiteflies, Thrips, scales, bugs, Moths and
other pests and insects.
Then about the beneficial insects – that’s biological pest control.
Then a detailed chapters on various plant diseases like blackspot disease, mildew, blight,
mosaic virus, Damping off and many more and controlling with JADAM natural pesticides.The
effect of JADAM natural pesticide has been proven by the National Agricultural Research
Institute.
This book is beautifully explained with nice clear photographs and illustrations on various
pests and diseases.
These books will certainly help bring a revolution in organic agriculture if implemented worldwide
without the need of commercial pesticides and can reduce the cost of pesticides by more
than 95%.
I am certainly going to try some of these methods mentioned in these books and implement
them.
