On February 26, 2002 a group of entrepreneurs purchased 106 acres of untilled land in Vaibhavwadi, Maharashtra, India. This land is amidst a dense jungle and includes steep valleys on each side making it nearly unfit for the purpose of professional farming. In April 2002 Mr. Trivedi toured this land and treated it with his thought projection process.

Following Mr. Trivedi’s treatment of the land the owners planted nearly 9000 saplings of V4 and V7 varieties of cashew purchased from the agricultural university, Dr. Balasaheb Sawant Konkan Krishi Vidyapeeth (BSKKV), Dapoli, Maharashtra-India.

Given below is a summary of observations by experts, of the inexplicable differences in the cashew trees of this farm compared to other trees of the same variety in the same region. Approximately 900 V4 and V7 cashew trees spread over 10 acres in the neighboring farm were observed as controls.

Completely Organic

On Guruji’s instructions, no chemicals of any kind, not even fertilizers, were used on the treated plots, although regular practices followed on control farms included several installments of fertilizers, pesticides and fungicides due to the high incidence of disease and the requirement of nutritional supplements in the region.

The luxuriant green and healthy growth of trees in the treated plots far exceeded expectation especially when compared with the comparatively far poorer growth, incidence of diseases and low chlorophyll content found in trees in the control plots. There appeared to be a bluish aura in the air, which can be seen in photographs on following pages. There was a visible luster in the leaves, which was also found in the well-over three times higher number of larger than normal size nuts obtained from treated trees. The visual impressions were substantiated by observers from the agricultural university with tests of chlorophyll concentrations and by sending the nuts to Germany for tests of Bioluminescence, a parameter considered to be correlated with the vitality of living material. The treated and control leaves were further sent for DNA fingerprinting tests and compared to find that the treatment had actually caused changes at the DNA level of the plants (see below for more details).

• Height: The plants were at least 13-14 feet in height, like that of a 6-7 year old cashew tree of the same variety and in the same region.
• Canopy: Large and wide canopy, like that of a 6-7 year old cashew tree. The plants were disease free and highly vigorous.

• The branches grew lower to the base of the tree compared to other cashew trees of the same varieties (V4 and V7) in the same region.
• The branches were thicker and stronger with more secondary and tertiary branches than trees of the same variety.

There was no use of any pesticide, insecticide or fungicide; and yet there was no sign of pests or disease on any tree in treated plots. The other cashew trees in the region of the same variety, including those at the research institute, were sprayed with pesticides and insecticides at least four to five times a year, even then incidences of disease were observed in leaves, nuts and branches, and mortality in those farms was around 15-20% in the first year compared with a loss of only 0.5% within the first 3 ½ years experienced by the treated farms.

• Almost every branch flowered heavily, which is unusual.
• The panicles were thick, strong and showed a large number of female flowers.
• Instead of the expected 6-8 nuts per bunch on average, there were 12-18 nuts per bunch.

• Color: The treated trees had brighter, greener and shinier leaves indicating an increase in amount of chlorophyll and overall health of the leaves.
• Thickness: The leaves were thick with larger surface area than all other trees of the same varieties growing in the same region indicating higher photosynthesis and energy, making them more resistant to weather and pest damage. After scientific testing, the Chlorophyll A was found to be 60% higher and the Chlorophyll B content was found to be 100% higher when compared to the controlled farms. Scientists also observed a change in ratio of Chlorophyll A:B which was 1:0.33 as is normal in control plants but had become 2:1 in all plants on treated plots.
• Veins: The veins of the leaves were also very thick and this indicated a strong flow of nutrients around the leaves.

The fruit (Apple) and Nuts had a very unique shininess about them and were 60% bigger in size. The nuts showed 300% more vigor, strength and vitality than other cashew nuts in a Biophoton Emission test done by Neuss University, Germany (see report). These large nuts were very crispy and had a sweet taste. They had high density and their shelf life was significantly more when compared to other cashew nuts.

Agriculture scientists from BSKKV University, Dr. B. B. Jadhav, Head of the Department of Agriculture Botany and Dr. S. P. Raut, Head of the Department of Plant Pathology visited the farm and made the following observations.

Dr. Jadhav said “Besides being such an unusual dark green, the leaves are very thick and shiny. They are exhibiting a vibrant reflection that indicates a very efficient use of solar energy. The trees are obviously able to absorb whatever they need in terms of nutrients, transforming the material in such a way that the maximum amount will be synthesized within the plant itself. Very few leaves have fallen on the ground which means there is no need for the trees to eliminate unwanted material, meaning very little unwanted material has been absorbed. The plants’ ability to transform the solar energy is highly efficient which means the carbohydrate level is also very high.

The shine and color also indicate excessive chlorophyll B and chlorophyll A content. There is a direct relationship between chlorophyll content and the plant’s ability to absorb solar energy and transform solar energy to chemical energy. This in turn affects the plants’ ability to synthesize carbohydrates which the plant uses to produce nuts. In a normal cashew tree, the leaves have a light green color and certainly do not exhibit glow and vitality like these trees.

Another most important factor observed here is the flowering pattern; it is absolutely unique from the normal cashew plants. The panicles of these plants are very thick and strong and bear a large number of flowers. The flowers are unusually healthy and vigorous. The flowers are growing in bunches and we observed uncommon numbers of female flowers. We can also see that the average nut bunches are 12 to 18 per panicle instead of the normal 3 to 4 per panicle found in other cashew trees in this region.”

Dr. S. P. Raut, Head of Plant Pathology commented

“I observe no disease or infestation on any of these trees. In my 33 year career as a scientist I have never seen any farm without infection. No one can grow cashews successfully without the help of fungicides, pesticides and fertilizer. In this area with its congenial environment, with humidity, temperature, and rains, disease and pests are surely expected. With no fungicides, pesticides or fertilizer, a plant will go into survival mode. It will not grow, will not flower well and certainly will not produce good nuts. A lot of trees may simply die. Even if they survive, they may not be of any economic importance because they will have no ability to produce good nuts. No farmer in this region would take such a chance.

Secondly, airborne infection of fungi cannot be inhibited by any parameter because the spore load is throughout the garden and is uniform. The air in this whole area is full of spores which go through the air currents up to thousands of feet and in all directions. If this infection is 15 feet away, Aerobiology principles say it should easily travel through the air currents to the treated farm. Yet there is no infection, which means that the spores are not going through the air currents of this farm. Why? This defies the laws of Aerobiology and science. Something is preventing the spread of spores or may be the trees have the ability to resist spore infection, something which is unknown to science.”

To investigate the unique features of these treated cashew trees, the leaves, flowers, and branches were sent to the laboratory of Dr. Balasaheb Sawant Konkan Krishi Vidyapeeth (BSKKV) Dapoli, Maharashtra -India for pathological tests. The reports are on the subsequent pages.

DNA Fingerprinting
To test whether the alterations could have reached the genetic level, the DNA from the different samples were compared against each other for polymorphism i.e. to check whether there were changes in forms. Comparisons were made (using 5 RAPD primers) between DNA isolated from control leaves against treated for each of the two treated varieties, V4 and V7, and also for samples of a single type against each other. True polymorphism upto 58%, showing substantial adaptive change at the DNA level, was found in all cases examined. Reports may be seen by clicking on links below.
