Abstract


The technology of Effective Microorganisms was introduced into Hawaii in the mid 1990's. The program was expanded in 1998 due to the initial success achieved with pilot projects. Thus at present, EM is used successfully in crop production, waste management and in the hotel industry. It is also used in odor control in Zoological Gardens. The product is also certified in Hawaii. The basis of this success and the future projects of EM in Hawaii are presented.
