Welcome my friends back to the Epic Gardening podcast.

We are here with Young Sung Cho and his daughter Sung Young Cho of Jadam Organic Farming and

we've learned a lot this week.

I know that I have and I'm thankful to Young Sung for coming on the show and sharing with

us and I wanted to go to the book which I have in my home.

I call it the Orange Farming book because I love the cover and it's bright orange.

It's very easy to see and I know that there are some principles that Jadam was developed

under and I was hoping maybe Young Sung could explain his reasoning for these principles.

The first one is do as nature does.

What does Young Sung mean by that?

I generally make a joke like if you read a lot of books, you cannot be a good farmer.

Because if you see the nature, how the system goes in nature, you will understand about

the base fertilizer and then the constant above folio application from the nature.

You can get all the answers from the nature.

What I think is so interesting about what you're saying there.

Young Sung is certainly over here in America.

When we go to university, there are theoretical universities that teach a lot of theory and

there are practical universities where you're working in the field or in the lab with nature

or with the real world and I think sometimes people can put too much emphasis on the theory

of how something should work instead of perhaps walking outside and looking at the plants

and looking at nature and saying, oh, that's how it works obviously.

I find a lot of agreement there.
