MAKING FPJ FOR KNF
Korean Natural Farming (KNF) is a systems technology. We learned what Fermented Plant Juice (FPJ) is, then we learned about the Nutritive Cycle and how to use FPJs to follow the patterns of the life cycle of plants. Before we look at making formulas, let’s look closer at making the FPJs. e give plants what we want them to do. Therefore, we collect the plant material that is doing the function we want to apply. With vegetative leaf growth, we use fast-growing leaf tips. For de

USING THE NUTRITIVE CYCLE
Biochemical Signaling Technology (BST) follows the Nutritive Cycle using Fermented Plant Juices (FPJ) as an active ingredient in formulas designed for each phase. Specific FPJs are made to signal plants to develop growth in the specific phase of growth because of the hormones, enzymes, and cofactors found in each specific FPJ. SEEDLING The seedling still has the seed leaf (cotyledon) and needs to utilize that embryonic nutrition to trigger the genetics that will grow a health

CORE ELEMENTS OF THE KNF SYSTEM
1. Soil Foundation using IMO Technology
Establish a living soil by using cultivated Indigenous Microorganisms (IMO) that restore and sustain natural soil function and fertility. This allows plants to live in their Natural State, drawing nutrition on demand through symbiotic relationships with soil biology. As in Nature, balanced nutrition leads to fewer pests and disease, improved health, quality, nutrition, and increased yields.

INSTALLING A LIVING FLOOR
embracing for example, the “pigness of the pig.” For this reason, when building the bedding system for pigs, they need an extra layer of logs that other animals do not need. We will look at the construction of an Inoculated Deep Litter System (IDLS) for pigs, then discuss how to build the system for other animals. Ideally, all bedding systems should be installed on a dirt floor. This provides minerals for both animals and microbes and a connection between Nature and the barn

IMO for ANIMALS
Just like we use IMO to inoculate soil, we can install IMO into the bedding of barns and other animal enclosures to create living floors.
The concept is to install a floor that mimics a healthy forest floor made of leaf litter and spongy soil, which composts all organic matter quickly and efficiently. It’s easy to make. We build a bedding system with sufficient organic matter and inoculate it with high concentrations of soil biology, IMO, taken from healthy local soil. The
