Industry Application Example 8

Working on seeds, water and soil improvement (various parts of Japan):

1) We use our ITA technology for processing rice seeds, ITC for the water of the rice paddies, and have been successful in the prevention of various diseases, the development of the rice plant's ability to withstand extreme cold weather and hot dry seasons in addition to growing rice without chemical fertilizers or insecticides. And all this in addition to the crop increase and higher quality rice.

2) We also process both the seed potatoes and sweet potatoes in addition to administering soil improvement, achieving similar positive results.

3) With the same process for the open-air growth of tomatoe, cucumber, eggplant, Chinese celery, cabbage, etc., we have achieved similar improvements. In addition of course, we have considerably extended their shelf life.

4) Also with the open-air growth of various fruits such as straw berry, water melon, peach and grape, similar experiments have produced successful results.

5) With the same process for the greenhouse production of straw berry, melon, flowers and other greens, we produced similar results creating for them a specially noted market repuetation for larger size and better flavor.

TLSL Comments:

(1) Given the high reputation of these quality products raised without chemicals, there have been no instances of significant left-over inventories, and the market values increased as much as several tens of percentage points, and in some cases more thaqn twice the going market prices. In the case of rice, the production per acre increased from 20 to 100%, and 20 to 30% for potatoes and sweet potatoes as it is also the case for vegegables.
(2) This is applicable to all fields of agriculture anywhere in the world.

OIARI Comments:

In China, it has been the tradition for farmers to use raw human excrements for farm crops without fermentation process in open-air tanks dug out in the field. In order to fight the harmful bacteria infestation arising from this practice, more chemicals have been used by farmers in recent years further damaging the soil, which in turn gives rise to the need to use more chemical fertilizers. This vicious cycle can be stopped by processing both the soil and the manure using our ITA and ITC technologies.
