Jong-ryul Lee from Damyang, Jeonnam; Rice farming ≈ 24.5 acres; 5th year of Ultra-Low-Cost Agriculture
Mr. Jong-ryul Lee, who cultivates rice on about 24.5 acres in Damyang, Jeonnam, encountered JADAM by chance. Realizing, “This is the true alternative for eco-friendly agriculture,” he immediately took the lectures and began donating to JADAM.
He was actively practicing JADAM Natural Pesticide (JNP) by making JADAM Sulfur (JS) and JADAM Wetting Agent (JWA) and boiling ginkgo nuts (JHS). Upon hearing the news that JADAM Microbial Pesticide (JMP) was invented, he immediately started manufacturing it. Initially, when making the JMP, he cultured JADAM Microorganism Solution (JMS) by grinding boiled potatoes. However, after hearing that starch was more effective, he switched to using starch, but he faced continuous failures in culturing thereafter.
After failing more than 10 times, he inquired with Dr. Youngsang Cho and found that storing starch in a low-temperature warehouse was the problem. He bought new starch and tried culturing again, but the failures continued. Upon consulting with Dr. Cho again, he discovered the cause was not boiling the starch sufficiently. Since undercooked starch cannot serve as food (medium) for microorganisms, he changed his method from roughly boiling the starch to boiling it thoroughly until bubbles rose vigorously. Finally, the culturing JMS was successful.
First, never store starch in a low-temperature warehouse; keep it at room temperature. Second, when boiling starch, it is fine to boil it for a longer time, so boil it thoroughly until bubbles rise sufficiently. If you are careful about these two points, making JMS will proceed smoothly without significant difficulties.
