Introduction
Natural farming teaches farmers simple fermentation techniques, among other farm-
based technologies, to produce their own organic implements using as many farm resources
as possible. Indigenous Microorganisms (IMO), Fermented Plant Juice (FPJ), Fermented
Fruit Juice (FFJ), Lactic Acid Bacteria Serum (LABS), Fish Amino Acid (FAA), Oriental
Herbal Nutrients (OHN), Calcium Nutrient, and Calcium Phosphate Nutrient are among the
organic supplements.
Natural farming concoctions containing live microorganisms nourish both the plant
and the soil (especially IMO and LABS). In natural farming, the inoculation and "cultivation"
of beneficial microorganisms in the soil is a critical practice because it allows vital nutrients
and minerals to be available to the plants. It also encourages the growth of earthworms and
other higher soil organisms, which contribute to the soil's overall fertility. It's amazing to see
how plants grow so healthy and pest-free without the use of chemical pesticides and
fertilizers. In the event of a pest infestation, natural farming can use botanical extracts such as
kakawate, makabuhay, chili peppers, and garlic as repellants.
Natural farming is not limited to agricultural crops; it is also applied to animal
farming, with similar fermented products and botanical extracts used in place of synthetic
chemicals and antibiotics. Natural farming already has serious practitioners in the
Philippines, ranging from small rural farmers to weekend agriculturists to large-scale farmers.
Natural farming is quickly becoming the technology of choice for serious proponents of
organic farming and organic foods due to the high quality of products produced, the very low
cost of inputs required, and the use of natural environment-friendly concoctions that do not
pollute the environment.

PROCEDURES ON FERMENTING VARIOUS CONCOCTIONS
Learning Objective
After reading this INFORMATION SHEET, YOU MUST be able to:
1. Ferment various concoctions following the right procedures.
2. Describe the different types of fermentation.
Fermentation
Fermentation is the breakdown of a substance into a simpler substance. Microorganisms such
as yeast and bacteria are commonly involved in the fermentation process, which results in the
production of beer, wine, bread, kimchi, yogurt, and other foods.
Function of fermentation
The main function of fermentation is to convert NADH back into the coenzyme
NAD+ so that it can be used again for glycolysis. During fermentation, an
organic electron acceptor (such as pyruvate or acetaldehyde) reacts with NADH
to form NAD+, generating products such as carbon dioxide and ethanol (ethanol
fermentation) or lactate (lactic acid fermentation) in the process.
Types of fermentation
Fermentation can be classified into several types based on the end products formed from
pyruvate or its derivatives. Humans most commonly use two fermentations to produce
commercial foods: ethanol fermentation (used in beer and bread) and lactic acid fermentation
(used to flavor and preserve dairy and vegetables).
Ethanol Fermentation
Alcoholic fermentation is the best known of the fermentation processes, and is
involved in several important transformation, stabilization, and conservation processes for
sugar-rich substrates, such as fruit, and fruit and vegetable juices. Alcoholic fermentation is
carried out by yeasts and some other fungi and bacteria.
The feedstock for ethanol production can be any material containing appreciable
amounts of sugar or substances that can be converted to sugar. Conventional production uses
sugar (from sugar cane and sugar beet), starch (from corn, wheat or potatoes) or other
polysaccharides.

Performance Objective:
Given the supplies, tools, materials and equipment you should be able to
process ferment fruit juice following the given standard procedures
Supplies/Materials: 2 5 0 M L m o l a s s e s , 1/4 banana fruit, container,
chopping board, slicing knife, manila paper, rubber band, masking tape,
marker, ladle, small basin, weighing scale.
Introduction
Before harvesting a concoction, it should be inspected to see if the fermenting
process was successful. When fermentation is successful, there are white molds, maggots,
and an aromatic scent. When fermentation fails, there are black molds and an unpleasant
smell.

Self- check 4.2-3
___________1. Lactic acid bacteria serum has 1st and 2nd stage of fermentation.
___________2. White molds indicate unsuccessful fermentation.
___________3. To prevent contamination, we should only use clean and sanitized materials
and equipment.
___________4. If the concoctions smell bad with a presence of black molds, then the
fermentation is not successful.
___________5. FAA stands for fermented amino acid.
