Specific Objectives:
1. To turn the acidic soil into alkaline (fertile) to:
a. Reduce the high cost of input (farming) from P30,000.00 in the chemical
(inorganic) system to P3,000.00 only using organic system
b. Increase yield from hardly 100 sacks per hectare under inorganic system to
over 200 sacks per hectare under the organic system
c. Increase net grains per sack from hardly 60 kilos to over 65 kilos net grain per
sack!
These objectives are already achieved by a number of organic companies including
Victory Global, to wit:

Bats eat fruits,

which become
guano. Guano is in
loose soil form, not

phosphate rock.
Guano is fruit-based
dung of the bats.
Coconut esp. leaves

to be very rich in
potassium. Just have
them decompose.

the amount of elements according its stage of growth.

For example: If it is still a seedling, it needs more nitrogen (carbon + hydrogen + oxygen + nitrogen). So the sources of
nitrogen should be in higher quantity for the small plant, not yet nearing its flowering & fruiting stage.
For flowering & fruiting age or season, the grown up plant or tree needs more of the minerals like phosphorus, potassium.
The wood ash is a very rich source of these minerals. Also sand, especially sea sand. Also the guano (bats dung).
Note: Wood ashes means elements left after all the rest have evaporated (turned or returned to air or gas) during burning.
What are those that return to gas? 1) Vitamins, 2) Elements like Carbon, Oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, etc.
What are those which are too heavy and cannot fly and merge with the air and remain or form as ash?
Minerals: Iron, Zinc, Calcium, Magnesium, Potassium, etc.
How woods come to have these minerals? Where did the tree get them? Answer: From soil through its roots but its center
root, aside from penetrating the water level, is specially commissioned to reach the mineral (soft rock) layer to get them.
Minerals are specially obtained by the center main root that penetrates straight down to the mineral layer of the earth.
Remarks: 1 year supply from a persons stool & urine = easily enough fertilizer to feed him 1 year (Leviticus procedure: To be
buried under the soil immediately to avoid germ fly to the air unto your nose. Remark: The use of soil or soil substitute such
as refined saw dusts to cover the latrine has proven also safe from contamination).
Trend in France & other countries: waterless toilet (improvised pail to be covered with saw dust or soil after boweling) to turn
human waste into organic fertilizer.
Best source of
concentrated organic
nitrogen:

Sand

1) the root-fruits (unod)

of plants or trees which
have thorns and/or
hairs (dapaw). The
thorns and hairs are
antenna of nitrogen.
The plants get nitrogen
from the air using their
thorns and hairs.
Plants with thorns and
onod (root-fruit): hibi2
Plants with dapaw
(hair): bugang.
Sand is said to be a container of many elements especially minerals. It is a fertilizer.

Second function of sand: looser (makes loose) of the soil, to give space for air and prevent the soil from becoming too pasty.
Paste-like soil holds too much water and can destroy roots as well as prevent root-fruits such as camote from expanding.
Researchers have discovered enormous amount of nitrogen due to nitrogen-fixing bacteria in the roots of bugang which
explains why the bugang plant thrives even in very poor soil or in the rocks! The bugang looks like sugar cane plant but
slimmer in stem and leaf. It is most similar to Napier plant. There is a company in the Philippines that uses bugang roots to
culture liquid fertilizer with the help of charcoal. If I remember it correctly, they mix the bugang roots and charcoal. The
charcoal helps keep the bugang nitrogen-bacteria alive and multiplying and so, I theorize, these bacteria continue to pull
nitrogen from the air even if they are no longer in the bugang plant but in the charcoal!

Role of Charcoal: Soil is supposed to be the first thing to hold nutrients (minerals and other elements). But where soil is
unprotected from flooding or poisoning from chemical fertilizers, pesticides & herbicides, the ancient people of Latin America
found an ally in charcoal which holds enormous amount of nutrients from compost, animal dung, or human stool and urine from
being washed out. Charcoals are one of the last to get washed out during rains. It is an effective depository of elements
especially minerals and not just effective bad odor (gas) absorber inside refrigerator or comfort room.
First step for effective teamwork is this: mix charcoal to organic waste or organic fertilizer to keep the minerals and other
essential elements intact in the soil. The nutrients from the organic materials would then get deposited inside the charcoal which
will later on become a rich bank from where the roots of the plants and trees could derive their food. Note: Charcoal are not yet
ashes. But significantly, the minerals that would form into or remain as ashes are already in the charcoal. Therefore, the charcoal
is already contributing to the fertility of the soil in the first place because it has its own set of minerals (the same which you will
find if charcoals are allowed to become ashes). Secondly, as discussed already, charcoal has the power to keep the nutrients
(elements, minerals) in organic materials and compost or organic fertilizer, such as human and animal waste (liquid and solid)
either inside it or in its vicinity like magnet, charcoal attracts these nutrients or minerals and keep them around, and not allow
them to dissipate.
Step two: mix the organic matter with charcoal to the soil. Let us call this organic matter + charcoal as humus charcoal or
humicharcoal.
The result is already fertile soil - quality soil, as what they have found done by ancient people in Latin/South America. They did
this many thousands of years ago, but the soil now is still very fertile!
HUMICHARCOALED SOIL + ASHES
Page 5 of 7

If this kind of humicharcoaled soil is further added with ashes (which are mainly minerals), then, the soil fertility would be
multiplied many times over. Although, I theorize that ashes are not compulsory where charcoal are present, because before it
becomes ash, ash is charcoal! The charcoal contains the same minerals and the same amount of such minerals its own ash would
hold.
So, it is either charcoal or ash, I suppose.
The charcoal still contains those elements which would evaporate when the woods et al fully burn out, e.g., carbon, some
hydrogen, a few oxygen, etc.

Sunlight is fertilizer in fact, a blade of grass is 80% sunlight, only 20% soil (minerals).
The same can be said to leaves. The green color chlorophyll is sunlight.
Carbon dioxide (air from animals and humans) is very essential as it is the breath of life to plants while oxygen from plants is the
breath of life for humans and animals. This is a well-known symbiosis taught in the elementary grades.
Smoke from burning leaves, woods, etc. is also very essential not only for its carbon dioxide but also to drive away insect-pests
from staying in the tree and injuring young fruits, e.g., penetrating the fruits skin with their eggs which become worms to
destroy the maturing fruits later on.
Small stones and/or sands are needed to allow air into the soil. Air (0xygen) is also needed by aerobic microbes as these
microbes work to enrich the soil. The roots also need air.Stones are also sources of minerals.Stones are a good source of cool
temperature the plants and trees need. Rocks and stones in the vicinity of the plant or trees are not useless.

Vermicast (iti sa wati, usually cultured vermis) dung of earthworm or also be in the form of seasoned animal dung (that is, of
cow, goat, pig, chicken, etc.). Seasoned means time allowed for the acidity of pig and chicken dung to mellow down, or also for
the leaves-based dung of the cows or goats to get eaten by earthworms and microbes into smaller particles and also richer
because the saliva and intestine enzymes further enrich the leaves; the leaf is enriched when the cow ate it, and it is
furthermore enriched when the earthworm and microbe ate them (the former leaf, the dung). The rootlets or tiny root tips of
the plants and trees cannot eat the cows or goats dung because it is still too coarse or too large; the big animal dung must first
be further eaten by smaller animals: earthworms and microbes.
If you do not have access to cultured vermicast, you may look for seasoned cows dung or goats dung. To be sure, seasoned
animal dung is clearly not new dung which is considered too strong (can kill) to seedlings.
Same is true with urine. Urine if mixed with enough water, is associated with very plentiful fruits of many fruit trees, as well as
healthy vegetables. But pure urine or too much of it, can also kill the plant or fruit tree. So, balance or the right amount is also
very important to consider.
It is also the same with chemical fertilizer which you put into the plant in small doses only
