Summary

In order to start your JADAM Organic Farming journey you will need to make JMS, the JADAM Microorganism Solution. Youngsang Cho walks us through step by step how to create this mixture. All you need is 3 simple ingredients - boiled potatoes, sea salt, and soil from around your garden or farm. Connect With Youngsang Cho: Youngsang Cho,The president of JADAM, started organic farming in Korea in 1989. He learned natural farming from his father, Hankyu Cho who founded Korean Natural Farming (KNF). Based on his father's farming and Asian traditional farming, he founded JADAM (meaning "People that resemble nature") in 1991. He has developed a number of core technologies necessary for popularizing organic farming. JADAM, which leads Ultra-Low-Cost agriculture, is the largest organic farming organization with more than 75,000 members in South Korea.

0:00.0	Welcome back everyone to the epic gardening podcast.
0:15.4	We are joined again both by Yongsan Cho of Jada Morganic Farming and his daughter Sanyun
0:20.5	Cho.
0:21.5	Now we've talked a little bit about Jada as an overview as well as we've compared it to
0:27.8	the permaculture system of growing and Korean natural farming and I understand in K&F
0:33.5	you have IMO, in Jada, you have JMS and I was hoping that Yongsan could explain what
0:40.2	is JMS and how does someone make it if they want to get started in Jada.
0:45.7	I studied a lot in college, but what I learned was that there are a lot of ways to grow the
0:57.0	permaculture, so I learned that there are a lot of ways to grow the permaculture.
1:04.6	So when I was in the university, I studied microbiology and then I learned I got to know if you
1:11.2	are a culture micro-organism in the different stages, it just decreased the number of microorganisms.
1:20.1	And then there will be no diversity.
1:22.9	So to keep the diversity in microorganisms when you culture micro-organism solution, it should
1:38.1	be very simple and easy and then it should be processed in a short time and then it should
1:42.9	be done in the one stage.
2:05.4	So when you make a JMS, you just need boiled potatoes and sea salt and live more soil from
2:13.4	around nearby mountain or forest from your farm because the micro-organism, when you
2:23.9	culture micro-organics be your solution, the condition should be similar with the micro-organism
2:33.5	in your farm.
2:36.0	Makes sense.
2:37.0	So I need boiled potatoes, salt, and then just soil around the area that I'm in because
2:43.9	I want to, I guess, inoculate the mixture with the native organisms around me, right?
