Presented By: Stacy Reader

Event: West Africa Anglophone Forum 2015 (2015-03-26)

Around the world, many agriculturists and gardeners are adopting soil amendments and fertilizers that are called bokashi. Bokashi is a Japanese word that has no good translation into English. However, all types of bokashi are produced through fermentation processes. Small amounts of beneficial indigenous microorganisms (IMO) or Effective Microorganisms (EM) can be used to help with the fermentation process. In this Workshop, Stacy Reader will “de-mystify” bokashi production and its beneficial uses.
