Summary

JADAM can be used by anyone, anywhere, no matter what size their garden or farm is. The JADAM Method seeks to simplify farming and create a universal standard. In doing this, the inputs must be cheap and readily available to anyone around the world. 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.
