We looked for years various technology and looked at possible solution to ensure high yields but these methods, sadly, are not always the “best” solutions. The “Korean Natural Farming Technology” provides us the system of using fully local materials both for farm inputs and processing methodology.  About two decades ago came Green Revolution’s “miracle” seeds a short term for narrow-minded search for higher yields of grains. The widely used of these chemicals landed us in such a mess, obscure as it may seems but the fact remain that the death of our farmers is a result of economic policies that promote modern agriculture. When two third of the country are farmers faces extinction we viewed this as genocide. With this system, we can now grow more food and higher incomes to farmers without destroying the environment and killing our farmers.  This site will focus on the methodology of men and women who has acquired competencies and commitment in giving quality of life to its people. The formula of success is “you walk, the talk” by teaching the technology more widely and challenges the local government unit (LGU) to adopt and embraces the technology.  Eventually, bring prosperity for rural communities - a debt-free farmer.  
Natural farming system has unleashed the most creative and the most innovative men and women from private sector and local government officials in this country.  It created a common ground and unified knowledge and understanding about the many aspect of natural farming technology. It internalized the reason for the need of improving the farming industry as a whole.  It created awareness and interest on the need to sustain subprojects that are geared to natural farming technologies. This development approach will have an impact on the rural scenario since activities will involve the use of crops, livestock other indigenous materials and skills of the local residents as the result will eventually also benefit the from the farmers’ increased economic income.  

 
Our program for farmers makes them responsible for their activity because they have a clear understanding of the principles of natural farming - follow the law of nature and respect for life! To make the choice of the life and the survival of human beings is to make the choice of sustainable development through natural farming. We do not till the land. Our model farmers and farm development is Zero Chemical and is not negotiable to use insecticides, herbicides, fungicides also known to us as CIDE family- suicide, genocide! Instead we use ecological pest management; instead of chemical fertilizers we use our homemade liquid fertilizer to soil and plants.

The first NF Strategic Planning will be held here in Manila tentatively on June 5, 2010.  The Group will convene to discuss mainly the Mission and Vision of the NF Group.

Mr. Andy and  Jojie Lim and among others will chair the meeting.

The outcome of this strategic planning will surely benefit more the natural farmers of this group.

Last May 22, 2010, I met Mr. Oscar Rejuso at Robinson East.  We had talked a lot of things from goat raising, mahogany, gemilina trees ... beams, columns, structural design etc. 

Mr. Rejuso is a civil engineer by profession but most of us - he has a big heart and a passion in farming, embracing the natural way of doing it.

Though, Mr. Rejuso does not want to even mention his name on  his contribution in building up our website, our hearts cannot hold-off appreciating this token.

Again, we thank Mr. Rejuso's for lighting up the torch in developing this site.
