Easy to grow black mulberry


Traditionally, mulberries have been used to nourish and clean the blood, benefit the kidneys, treat weakness, fatigue and anemia. They have a strong anti-inflammatory and antiseptic action, which may help cleanse the digestive tract and benefit those with gout, arthritis, or rheumatic problems. The fruits faint scent and sweet taste make it suitable for all ages. 

Black Mulberries are believed to have been consumed by mankind since before recorded history. The mulberry has been cultivated in China for at least 50,000 years, mainly for the rearing of silkworms. The bark of the black mulberry tree is traditionally used for Chinese papermaking. A mulberry tree can live for over 600 years. Until recently many trees in England dated back to the 17th century. King James I planted plantations of trees around England, in an effort to rear silkworms. The entire yield was enough to make only one dress for his Queen.

Zero Sen













































Zero Sen

The idea behind Zero Sen is to get people together to step away from depending on the Government for provision such as food, transport, water, electricity and anything that affects our life with little or no money to start with. Today, more than ever before there is a bigger demand for food due to the growing population, weather change, natural disaster, human selfishness and greed.

The way to overcome this is for us to grow our own vegetables and fruits.  If space is limited, we can grow vegetables through bottle stacking – an innovative technique that maximizes the growing of vegetable crops vertically. Besides vegetables we can breed animals such as chickens, ducks, fishes, prawns, rabbits and others in our very own compound or from unoccupied buildings.

Stating the obvious, vegetables need fertilizer to grow healthily while animals need food.
However, the cost of fertilizer and animal feed presently is RM2,000 per ton each and is expected to go up further before the year ends. Since both are beyond our means to procure, why not make our own fertilizer and animal feed? As the saying goes, ‘Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.’

We believe in creating self-sufficiency within the poor communities in Malaysia that can be jump-started by mere unwanted food wastes. In Klang Valley alone, 50,000 tons of foods are thrown to the rubbish bins every month. Globally, 1.3 billion tons of food goes to waste per year, according to the Food and Agricultural Organisation (FAO). If we can harness just a fraction of these wastes, we can make a difference. I know it can be done because I have gone through it: grow vegetables, rear chicken and make compost (by conventional method) in my own garden. What more if there is a proven machine that can produce compost and animal feed, it will simplify the tedious process.
