Agro – Ecosystem Management (AGES)

Typical forest with

decayed leaves
and other debris.

Sunlight is diffused
by the forest canopy
which controls the
moisture of the forest
floor.

 SOIL REJUVENATION I
Step 1

Green Manuring

Step 2
 SOIL REJUVENATION II
Materials: Procedure:

2. Rice straw (Dayami) 2. Mix 50 ml of each material to 1

liter of water.
3. Beer 3. Saturate soil with water and
4. Spirits spray solution.
4. Cover soil with rice straw and
5. Rice wine (Filtered) moisten with water.
6. FAA 5. Spray solution to rice straw late
in the afternoon or early evening.
Note:
Maintain moisture at all times and
leave this for 1 to 2 months for
curing.
SOIL REJUVENATION III
Sheet Composting
 Sheet Composting
Materials: Procedure:

2. Fresh organic matter 2. Saturate vegetable plot with water

(Shredded) and spray solution at 30 ml. per
liter of water.
3. IMO
3. Cover vegetable plot with organic
4. Plant extract matter.

5. Fruit extract 4. Spray solution on sheet compost to

hasten decomposition and
6. Herb nutrients microbial activity.
Note:
Try to maintain moisture at all times.

 WHY DO WE HAVE TO
REJUVENATE OUR SOIL?
• To improve the Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC).
• To increase the Water Holding Capacity of the
Soil (WHC).
a. Adhesion
b. Cohesion
• To improve porosity.
• To balance the Flora and Fauna.
• Promotes Zero – Tillage
• To avoid By-Pass Flow (Soil Cracks)
