2. Jadam philosophy 1: Do as Nature Does

4. Make the soil microbes like that in leaf mold
"What is visible represents what is invisible." This means that the state of roots is what determines the health of the plant. Large and vigorous roots are key to good growth and high quality fruits. However, the use of heavy machineries (tractors), coupled with chemical fertilizers, pesti

5. Make soil rich in organic matter
What is the most important fertilizer? Do as nature does. Nature grows plants on the spot and turns it into organic matter. Use cover crop method. Leaves, grass, weeds, plants, branches all fall on the soil to enrich it. As roots reach in deeper, the soil changes. You can use grass that grows in win

6. Use sea water for soil minerals
Zero input happens only in nature where all the leaves and fruits fall on the ground. It is not possible in farming. Humans take all the fruits and thus the minerals. How do we replace the lost minerals? Look at it in an earth-perspective. All leached minerals eventually end up in the ocean.

8. Is putrefaction bad and fermentation good?
Our ancestors made all farm inputs with things nearby. It cost them nearly no money. They were self-sufficient.

10. Look at liquid fertilizer with nutrient-perspective. Use water
Conventional organic farming recommends the use of fermented compost as base fertilizer. But compost is not easy. You need to mix right and turn often. Jadam recommends instead to use the wild grass that grow all around you. Our ancestors have been self-sufficient in fertilizer for thousands
