‘Balanced Fertilization’ Increases Rice Yield By Marvyn N. Benaning, Manila Bulletin 3 April 2011

April 3, 2011 Manila Bulletin article reported that practitioners of balanced fertilization have been harvesting 30 percent more rice from inbred and hybrids in the past several years and progressively reducing the share of commercial fertilizers from 10 percent to 50 percent.

AIC's Excerpts From "Rapid Composting Technology in the Philippines"

Agricultural Inoculants Corp. wants to share excerpts from Dr. Virginia Cuevas' book shows that pilot testing of the rapid composting technology in different parts of the Philippines have shown clearly the benefits farmers can get if they follow the program…In terms of crop yields, combined use of compost + 50% inorganic fertilizers resulted in increases in crop yields which were 13% - 16% higher than in fields where chemical fertilizers alone were used.

AIC Solidwaste Management Solution for Philippine Municipalities

Climate change adaptation and the imperative of implementing RA 9003 are essential, but encumbered by the following:

• Recommended solutions are expensive
• Budgetary constraints
• Lack of knowhow / expertise
• Lack of support from the National Government

What we are proposing is a technology transfer scheme that will allow the Municipality to address the pressing problems of MSW at the least cost possible.

Using rapid composting inoculants that we will provide, all bio-degradable waste shall be converted into bio-fertilizers.

This can immediately address landfill problems since bio-degradable waste constitutes more than 50 percent of all urban waste. While at the same time, address the need for an essential and burgeoning demand for organic fertilizer -- a key farm input for the Department of Agriculture's thrust in organic crops production.

Agricultural Inoculant Corporation rapid composting technology

Agricultural Inoculants Corporation (AIC), formerly Agro-Forestry Crop SystemsInc., is an agricultural company committed to sustainable agriculture.

Our role is to ensure, that we provide in a socially responsible way, bio-fertilizer manufacturing technology using rapid composting inoculants that are easy touse, profitable and environment friendly. This technology when passed on tofarmers, cooperatives, LGUs and the private sector, would result to on-farmefficiency, reduce farm fertilization costs and reduce carbon emission by recycling farm and market waste into bio-fertilizers .

AIC’s rapid composting powder has 21 beneficial microbes and enzymes with nitrogen fixing bacteria and nematode controlling fungi. Formulations developed by AIC in the manufacturing of organic fertilizers usingdifferent farm and market waste have resulted in consistent quality of organicfertilizer wherever produced.

Manufacturing organic fertilizers using AIC’s rapid composting inoculants willproduce fertilizers at below ½ the average price of organic fertilizer available inthe market.
