Greetings Keishi Matsumura,
You brought up an interesting topic, electrolyzed water, but I didn't
see any replies on Sanet.
You probably already know more about electrolyzed water than most
of us. It is still a new topic over here in the United States. But
I'm sure there are many readers who would love to learn more about
water treatments underway in Japan, so please feel free to share some
background information and resources.
I have seen a few references to water treatments in Japan in
journals like HortScience as well as in the practitioner literature.
Plus, I have heard of several holistic health practitioners using
water treatments in Japan. This leads me to believe that at least
certain groups in Japan are tuned into water quality and
accompanying treatments that can enhance the vibrational
characterisitics of water.
The characteristics of water, the qualities of water, water
treatments, how these affect biological systems... these topics are
gaining increased attention in alternative agriculture.
Some of the water treatments are coming from the universities and
industry, while other water treatments are coming from the holistic
health practitioners, homeopathic healers, biodynamic farmers,
permaculture, and related alternative farming systems.
Kirlian photography, biophoton light emissions, water crystal
patterns, sensitive crystallization... these are some of the
qualitative methods used to look at water quality from a new
perspective.
There is an exciting book on water crystal patterns that was
published in Japan titled "The Message from Water" by
Masaru Emoto. Since it is based on visual observation of water
crystals as water is brought to the freezing point, it can really
only be appreciated by seeing the pictures and reading about the
different sources of water and water treatments that elicit these
crystalline patterns.
Here is a website that provides examples of water crystal images
from Masaru Emoto's book.

Likewise, at the following website you can view images of Kirlian
photography and biophoton light emission comparing tap water
versus revitalized water.

How do these subtle characteristics of water affect what we do as
farmers taking care of animals, watering plants, nurturing human
beings?

"The Naga is an underwater creature from Asian mythology. Superior
to humans, it inhabits sub-aquatic paradises, living at the bottoms
of rivers, lakes and seas in resplendent palaces studded with gems
and pearls. It is the keeper of the life-energy that is stored in the
waters of springs, wells and ponds. It is also the guardian of the
riches of the seas -- corals, shells and pearls."
