The end of the twentieth early twenty-first century – the turning milestones in the history of mankind. We now stand on the threshold of global choice. And this choice depends on the fact of human survival. In our lives rapidly adopt the latest technology. In most people, these technologies primarily associated with equipment, machinery, nanomaterials. That’s nice, but we tend to forget that the main thing – the environment where we live. The biosphere must be put in the first place. It has more than four billion years, and includes all the diversity of organic forms of life. “Reasonable” human activity violated state of dynamic equilibrium, self-regulation mechanisms in the biosphere. We are beginning to reap the fruits of such activities. Newly emerging infectious diseases, climate change, disappear, many species of animals. Due to the heavy impact on nature, has already lost 20 percent of the fertile layer of the earth. What all this we are facing?
Agricultural production is the main source of food, and the main role in it belongs to agriculture. Due to the low yields of the population of the Earth and in the XXI century living hand to mouth.
Use of agricultural chemicals, genetically modified products do not cause radical changes and only exacerbate the situation. Chemical fertilizers are like dope, squeezing the last juice of the earth. This topic can be discussed for a long time. But it’s not what I would like to talk. What are the new items appeared in this pivotal era for agriculture?
Food and economic problems can be solved using EM technology. Practical application of these technologies are about twenty years, and most people treat it with suspicion. Or do not know what it is. To begin, I want to quote the words of Roger Bacon, they are relevant here: “Nature steers its rudder. Soil is the primary means of production in agriculture. From its fertility depends on many things, even the student understands this. The ability of soil to give nutrients to accumulate and retain moisture and air – is a merit of soil microorganisms, worms, insects. Microorganisms most, in each gram of humus there 2-2,5 billion bacteria. They decompose organic matter into simpler compounds, supply nutrients to plants.
To improve the soil, to restore its fertility, we must first take care of the microflora. This is entirely solved by the EM-technology. One of the most promising trends in agricultural production, biotechnology XXI century. Breaking the Deadlock, where people have driven ourselves.
The founder of a new direction is a Japanese professor, microbiologist Teruo Higa. In 1988, a scientist create a sophisticated set of beneficial bacteria, which is called the effective microorganisms (EM). Its EM-product – as a liquid concentrate, which is grown 80 strains leading anabiotic (utility) of microorganisms, the reality of living in the soil.
Originating in Japan, this technology is recognized by many. She is seriously implemented as part of national policy in different countries. For example: The effective microorganisms recognized as safe by the Department of catering USA. Market EM products in the United States began to take shape in June 1993, following an agreement between the Department of Agriculture, Department of Public Power and control environmental cooperation to reduce the use of pesticides and the introduction of organic Agriculture in the United States. Ukraine adopted the state program of “Environmental Protection in biotechnology. Also established the Asia – Pacific Manufacturers Association environmentally friendly products.
Application of new technologies will allow several times to speed up the process of humus formation, increase yields. In livestock, the use of EM technology will allow growing meat without hormones and antibiotics. Food grown on organic farming technology is much more useful for us. Also, can solve a number of environmental problems. Restoring forests after felling and burning, recycling food waste and waste production. In Japan for 16 years EM used in waste water treatment. Cesspools and suburban, public toilets. They began to conduct experiments of Oil spill in the sea. The house is an alternative to our household products.
Organic farming methods are many, and EM-technology component part of it. Yes, that goes without saying that organic farming implements methods that people have used for centuries in the fields. Now these methods are modernized and strengthened. I do not appeal to everyone to engage in mass Agriculture, everyone should do their job. But now, people will have a choice. Choosing what products to use, grown in the traditional way (with chemical fertilizers) or grown with the help of new technologies. I think we must develop a culture of consumption of pure, organic food. So we can restore your health. Increased productivity many times, will allow us to get rid of the problem of hunger. And by getting rid of hunger, we can concentrate on other important matters. We, people, time for a long time to understand this planet is our common home, and it should be protected. The truth, known to many and so banal. But from this it has not lost its relevance.
It is no secret that the computer has long been an integral part of the workplace most of the representatives of modern mankind. The universality of the personal computer (PC) will gradually introduce it into all sectors of the economy, impose on him all the great features in order to liberate people from routine work and enhance its performance.
