When it comes to creating a waste free world and understanding the value of the waste we have already created, I am delighted to bring Plant Nutrition Technologies global patented solution to share with you with the CEO Dennis. His bio is here, I was born in the Napa Valley of California a fourth generation California native...we are more rare than you might think. I grew up in the farms and fields of the Monterey and Watsonville farming country then my father took us to Washington state for work in the onion fields and hay fields and on to Idaho for the same.
After graduating from Christian boarding school where I received a first rate education I travelled a bit on my thumb then joined the US Air Force.
In the Air Force I went to Fighter Jet Weapons Systems Tech school where I was told that I was the first student to ever pass the course with 100% for the entire course...it was a shock to me. They made me an instructor right out of school. We taught basic electronics and weapons systems for fighter jets. I also learned how to administer a very large operation with 4000 students. In the Air Force I learned that I had a gift for strategic thinking and planning. I use the skills and education I gained in the Air Force every day.
After the Air Force I found a place in the automotive industry as an electrical specialist because of all the new solid state electronics that were being used in automobiles and none of the mechanics were prepared for the changes. I stayed in that profession for 35 years while being a father to my 3 boys and 1 daughter.
During this time I learned of the amount of gold and silver available in the mine waste of California and Nevada.
My associates and I formed a corporation to begin the Research and Development of environmentally sound processes for the recovery of these values. The State of California told us that if we processed mine waste we were responsible for the waste so we researched the markets that could use finely powdered rock. That is when we discovered that it could be turned into 100% Natural fertilizer.
From there we had it Certified and Registered with the State of California and began the more difficult uphill battle of educating the farmers to the environmental dangers of chemical fertilizers and the benefits of rock powder based fertilizers.
Our first serious use of our products resulted in us doubling the harvest of a small 7 acre almond orchard that was dying and scheduled for replacement. That was 6 years ago and we have matched that first year's yield or bettered it every year since. The yield in that orchard is better than it had ever been in its 20 year history.
We have also achieved phenomenal results in Hemp and Canola and are in a 90 acre Field Trial with baby almond orchards right now. We are also in a Field Trial with Cannabis which we tested and grew 8 foot plants with NO chemicals of any kind.
