Jeff -

Just a note to let you know I received your
material and will dig it back up. Have just
finished a major conference, and as an organizor
and speaker and moderator and board member all
tied together, it was all-consuming.

Well, the next four weeks don't look much
different but I'll take a look and see what
this patent is about.

Incidentally, my talk was "Nature's Fungicides:
Microbiologicals, Disease Suppressive Composts,
and Compost Teas." For fun, to stretch the
imagination of what is possible on-farm, I
shared material on Indigenous Microorganism
(IMO) cultures from Korean Natural Farming
Association.

It all ties together: biological farming
practices, humus management, soil biota,
soil foodweb, the principle of abundance
and diversity, substrate and culture,
rhizosphere + phyllosphere, biocontrol
mechanisms.
