Read a Testamonial from a Commercial waste processing company on EM and Odour control
When Dr Higa formulated EM, his intention was that it would be used primarily for applications on soils and crops for food production. Dr Higa soon discovered that EM not only improved soils and subsequent plant growth, but also was able to restore polluted water and waterways. In addition it was shown to be extremely effctive at reducing odors, composting food waste and other waste quickly.
Some of the most spectacular success's of EM has been in areas concerning the environment. One of the biggest being the restoration of the Seto Inland Sea of Japan. With large scale applications over a number of years, they have halted the degradation and have seen large improvements in the ecology of the sea (ref. Ecopure 2003 Dec 1)
On the local scene in Christchurch, the Christchurch City Council have been using EM now for several years for composting municipal green waste, and for odor control at the Landfill.
