Yanmar, My Filipino Challenge To You Is Organic Rotavation – Y/our Advanced Xmas Gift To Millions Of Poor Farmers Worldwide!

Yanmar, addressing worldwide agriculture, your “Yanmar Smart Agriculture” digital campaign comes with this slogan: “Working together towards new forms of abundance” (yanmar.com). Now then, here is one new form of abundance from me, a UP Los Baños agriculturist!

Addressed globally, you say, “Comprehensive collection and analysis of various data ensures stable quality and yields, and contributes to labor-savings” (Yanmar Smart Agriculture, yanmar.com).

Yanmar, now, here’s smart agriculture:
A rotavator operating as an automatic organic mulch-maker!

“Yanmar Green Challenge 2050” (yanmar.com) – With that bold advertising at/for agriculture worldwide, you Yanmar seems to me a good candidate sponsor for my personal intellectual challenge to produce a seemingly impossible machine – a rotavator automatically producing an organic mulch at the same time that it is cultivating the field. I call it the “Rotavator Operating As Automatic Mulch-Maker” (ROAMer) – even as it rolls as it runs, it simultaneously & spontaneously creates an organic matter layer all over the field!

Nope, that miracle rotavator does not exist yet; it lives only in my imagination. But 60 years ago, I already conceived of that organic rotavator – and I found that it worked according to what I thought. In my hometown Asingan, Pangasinan, we were cultivating the field in barangay Domanpot. The operator of the huge Howard rotavator did exactly what I told him to do. What happened was that my father’s field had a much bigger yield than the surrounding ricefields of friends! [Among other years, this year I wrote about it in this same blog you are reading this: “Multiple Intelligences – “Nature Smart” Rotavator For Doubling Harvests And At The Same Time Halving Costs Of Production! FAH Says” (07 July 2024, blogspot.com)].

Today, I am inviting Yanmar to sponsor a series of field techno demos for a project to produce the above-described ROAMer as the Yanmar Automatic – the successful design of which will be automatically Yanmar’s intellectual property when all our field tests show that it is as good as it claims it is.

The field tests will be at the PhilRice Los Baños Station, where lie also the headquarters of IRRI and UP Los Baños – their scientists will be invited to witness the tests and their results.

In the meantime, Yanmar is busy dealing with “the rotary tiller leveling performance” –

In order to predict and evaluate the rotary tiller leveling performance, the pile height of soil tilled by the rotary tiller was experimentally measured by a laser range scanner and estimated using the rotary tillage model… The comparison between the simulated and the experimental results indicated that this model was able to predict the pile shape of tilled soil.

Yanmar is intently studying the “piled shape of tilled soil” but not the organic matter-enriched pile! Yanmar doesn’t realize that.

Yanmar, with your own rotavator,  I will show you what you don’t know!

Yanmar, with y/our re-invented rotavator, farmers will have big harvests with little costs – no fertilizers to purchase.

Millions of farmers will be richer quicker – and so will Yanmar!@517
