EM-1^{^™} is a complex microbial inoculant that can be used in a variety of agricultural and environmental applications. "EM" refers to "Effective Microorganisms" and was developed by Dr. Teruo Higa, Professor of Horticulture at the University of the Ryukyus in Okinawa, Japan. EM was designed to produce abundant, healthy crops while reducing the use of chemical pesticides and other synthetic compounds.

EM-1^{^™} benefits many types of agricultural systems, doing its best work when used as part of an organic fertility program including crop residues, compost, green manures, and organic fertilizers (of plant and animal origin), along with other sources of carbon and nutrients. When used in conventional agriculture, EM can increase the efficiency of applied fertilizer while promoting the growth of beneficial microorganisms in the soil. Multiple inoculations over an extended period are recommended for achieving optimum results. However, good results also may be seen with the very first treatment.

An agricultural system that particularly benefits from EM-1^{^™} is Nature Farming, a sustainable, organic farming system developed by Mokichi Okada (1889-1955), who was a Japanese philosopher, naturalist and spiritual teacher. Nature Farming works in harmony with Nature and with natural laws.

The goal of Nature Farming is to create "Living Soil" that can produce healthy crops while sustaining and improving the environment and preserving the means of production. EM helps to create "Living Soil" in a reliable and predictable manner, over a two to five year period, when used concertedly along with the full range of Nature Farming methods.

EM-1^{^™} can be used to inoculate plants, water and soil in various ways to achieve beneficial results. It can be sprayed on soil as a pre-planting treatment, used to inoculate seeds or transplants, and applied to growing crops as a foliar spray or through irrigation water. EM is useful in growing nursery crops, container-grown plants, and even in hydroponics. It is used on a variety of crops, including cotton, soy beans, corn and other grains, vegetables, fruits, vine crops, flowers (especially orchids) and herbs. After crops are harvested, EM is used to help break down crop residues. EM can be applied to cover crops and green manures during growth and upon incorporation into the soil, and is applied to pastures with good effects. Since EM is completely nontoxic, it is harmless to all wildlife.

Embracing the dawn of a new era in agriculture, focusing on biological functions and creating a productive and healthy environment.
