Hi Jonathan:
Just so you know, scdprobiotics.com is NOT affiliated with EMRO Japan.
The only authorized distributors for EM products are listed on their global
parters project:
http://www.emrojapan.com:9000/examples/global-cases/north-and-south-america/unitedstatesofamerica.html
The primary distributor of retail products is Tera Ganix, Inc.
The products marketed by "Sustainable Community Development Probiotics" may
be closely related to EM, based on Matthew Wood's original work with Dr.
Higa, but they are not the same.
If you look closely at their website, they can only market products that are
"...A functionally similar product to EM Farming and EM-1."
I'm sure that they probably carry good products that are effective, but if
people want the original Dr. Higa organisms, one must purchase from Tera
Ganix, Inc., or one of THEIR smaller distributors.
Besides, it's much cheaper.
The only authorized manufacturing plant in the United States is in Tucson,
Arizona. The plant is official run by EMRO USA Effective Microorganisms.
Terag Ganix, Inc. was set up to be the retail and wholesale distributor for
North America.
http://www.emrousa.com/about.html
So for those who want to support Dr. Higa's direct vision, you'll save money
by purchasing from Tera Ganix, plus you'll be supporting Dr. Higa's global
organization.
You'll notice that on the website:
:EMRO USA is a wholly-owned subsidiary of EM Research Organization (EMRO) of
Okinawa, Japan. EMRO holds the universal or global rights, trademarks and
patents or patents pending on the technology of EM, Effective
Microorganisms, the EM logo, and its broad range of EM products and their
manufacturing know-how or processing licenses throughout the world."
If you hadn't noticed, I'm a big fan. :o)
I have all of Higa's English translations, and have worked through Vinny's
book on EM's.
I hope you'll keep us up to date on any further information you get on EM's
and the restoration of radiation contaminated soils there in Japan!
Kind Regards,
Jason

Apologies: Jason got it right: "Effective" it is. Here's the link:
http://www.amazon.com/Earth-Saving-Revolution-Effective-Microorganisms/dp/B000UKUCLM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1316298904&sr=8-1
The translation is superb.
Here's a link to SCD:
http://www.scdprobiotics.com/
I have not purchased anything from them but had a good impression when they
started out. Still do:

If SCD has English information about the Fukushima work, that would be the
best source. I haven't checked.

The name that Terao Higa coined is Essential Microorganisms. The company
that marketed the original formula in the USA is called Sustainable
Community Development Probiotics. The founder trained with Higa. Other
companies have copied Higa's work. So far as I know, none of them have
the same vision.
Higa's book really is amazing and is essential reading. He really
believes that EM is an earth-saving revolution. His volunteer work in the
radiation-stricken areas is evidence of that.

Greetings, all:
Actually, the term is Effective Microorganisms. The company in the
United States that is now distributing this quite amazing "product" is
Teraganix:
http://www.teraganix.com/Effective-Microorganisms-History-and-Availability-s/194.htm
Dr. Higa's book, "An Earth Saving Revolution" is a very, very fascinating
read.
Dr. Higa's microbial forumation uses sevearl more common organisms to
support the sustained existance of phototropic organisms, amazing little
critters that cannot exist in an oxygen-rich environment, but are
extraordinarily efficient at processing-- what to us-- is toxic waste
material, and producing waste-- that to our environment-- is life
sustaining.
One of the most enjoyable experiments I've done is proving that these
organisms actually do exist in the retail product. When cultivated
properly, they are the most amazing purple colored organisms.
Best Regards,
Jason

I think its Essential Microorganisms. Someone please correct if wrong.

Some members, particularly Brooks Bradley, are familiar with the
Essential
Microorganisms (EM) of Terao Higa, PhD. The proprietor of a local EM
shop
told me today that volunteers in Fukushima area are experimenting with
EM on
contaminated crops. He said blueberries went from 20,000 becquerels
down to
5,000, a 75% drop. I don't know the details.
He also said people volunteering in that area are suffering from throat
problems, which I took to be due to radiation, but am not sure. If I
get
more details I'll pass them along. Incidentally, these volunteers
consume
EM themselves.
Incidentally, most of the news in the corporate press regarding this
disaster is, to put it mildly, inadequate. There have been at least
three
melt-downs and apparently a total melt-through in at least in one
instance;
some experts fear that radiation is actually moving down through the
earth
toward groundwater. Given the sugar-coating in the "mainstream" news
to
date, this is certainly possible. Japanese people are deeply skeptical
of
government reports, and I think some major changes are ahead for Japan,
but
that's all off-topic.
