The MBRLC was conceptualized in the mid-1960s but then implemented and

officially opened on September 8, 1971. The originator and founder, Mr. Harold Ray Watson, along with his wife (Elizabeth Joyce) and three sons, lived at the center in Kinuskusan, Bansalan,

Davao del Sur. Initial money for establishment was given by the

Foreign Mission Board of the Southern Baptist Convention (USA)

We are grateful to God for His faithfulness in His ministry. He is using us more to reach His people in rural areas with our new ministry (True Vine Organic Ministries - John 15:1-5.)

We are beginning our organic agriculture training with rural church leaders and farmers. We had a three days seminar of sustainable organic farming with rural church leaders and farmers. It was very much fruitful. About three hundred persons attended the seminar. All the participants appealed to us to establish intensive training centers in their areas. We had the seminar from Wednesday, April 10 - Friday, April 12, 2013. We need your prayers for there is a need to training them.

Attached is a praise letter.

We love you,

Grow Feed

Why Grass-Fed is Best

More Fat-Soluble Vitamins – A, D, E, K - in the fat.

More CLA - anti-cancer & weight loss compound - in the fat.

More minerals - mostly in the fat.

To get the benefits of grass feeding... you must eat the fat!

And I will send grass in thy fields for thy cattle, that thou mayest eat and be satisfied.

Appropriate TechnologyIf land is expensive

You live in a dense urban environmentYou have access to a niche market

Energy costs are low, never disrupted*You can sell at premium prices

Water is scarce (it conserves water)You want to improve your food supply

Inappropriate TechnologyIf land is inexpensive /abundant water

You’re in a remote location Energy costs are high, or disrupted*You do not have a market to sell into

You’re not concerned about a poisoned food supply** *Pumps usually run 24hrs/day 7days/week

**Pesticides on the plant will kill the fish

Turtleponics

Turtleponics

Water hyacinth utilize the nutrient load from the turtles and grow

rapidly. The turtles will consume the plant so growth rate and quantity of plants need to be balanced. This is

an appropriate companion system if quantities of water hyacinth out

grow the consumption rate of the turtles.

Duckponics

Duckweed utilizes the nutrient load from the fish and ducks and grow rapidly. As ducks mature addition grow ponds are available to grow

more duckweed.
