2. India - conventional horticultureAuthor: Jois N. Srikanth
3. Colombia - organic family farming, annual and perennial crops
Team: Adriano de Jesús Quintero, Alvaro Gutiérrez Lozano, Ana de Dios Castro, Arcesio Váquiro, Desined Figueroa, Leonardo Sarmiento, Rainer Krell, Roberto de Mendoza

PRAG results:
India Tomato plant behaviourApprox. 2600 plants each per pranic and control groupFertilized on day 8 & 21 with 17-17-17 NPK; day 45 with DAPTreated on day 15 & 28 with Dimethoate
Measured Difference to Control Height + 18.5 %Stem diameter + 12.05 %Number of flowers + 31.75 %Yield in kg + 31.1 %
24% higher yield in a similar slightly smaller study in 2014

PRAG results:ColombiaCrops under trial: Tomato, lettuce, onions,
yuca, cacao, coffee & sugar caneIn 3 different ecological zones; Pranic treatments and observations conducted by small scale family farmers on working farms
Advers weather conditions, especially on annual crops, and Longterm crops showing no significant difference in growth yet
Preliminary observations:Level of pests on coffee appears lower Quality and concentration of sugar in pranic sugar cane appears to be better

Next tests: non-sugar residues and repeat trial with sugar concentration
Potential difference in quality of the end product and concentration of syrup.

Conclusions:- Productivity increases in major commodities, and horticultural crops
(for organic & conventional)- Potentially less disease and pest pressures- Measurable quality differences
- Greater income with lower costs, &- Reduced risks for organic practices
- More controlled research into factors that influence efficiency of pranic techniques
First Pranic Healing Research Conference, Bogota, Colombia 14 Sept. 2015
Conclusions:
Conscious pranic agriculture practice will lead to:(apart from healthier food and environment and more prosperity)
New collaborative awareness:
From I to We
First Pranic Healing Research Conference, Bogota, Colombia 14 Sept. 2015
ThereforeConscious pranic agriculture practice will lead to:
Economically more secure farms under most conditions
Healthier food and environment
Farmer and farm experience as connection to all:One with All
=
Food & nutrition that reconnects us, (in-)forms us
