Effective microorganism (EM) are mix cultures of beneficial naturally occurring organism that can be applied as inoculants to increase the microbial diversity of soil eco-system. They consist mainlyof the photosynthesizing bacteria, lactic acid bacteria yeast, actinomycetes, and fermenting fungi. This microorganism are physiologically compatible with one another and coexist and liquid culture. There is evidence that EM inoculation to the soil can improve the quality of soil, plant growth and yield of the crops (Kengo, 2000).
EM is used to extend and multiply the present microbes in the concentrate and fermenting it further maximize its full potential. Basically using EMAS can multiply the microbes and the awakening them because in the concentrate, the microbes is in a sleeping form, now the EM will awaking them and multiply them through fermentation ( Abbas, 2013).
