[00:38] Introduction and Background of Victor Manzano
Jason Schwartz introduces Victor Manzano, a long-time Maui resident with 35 years in Kihei, originally from the Philippines. Victor has a deep agricultural background, having worked for 34 years with the Philippine Department of Agriculture. He holds a bachelor’s degree in agriculture from a Philippine university and served as an agricultural extension worker, helping villages and provinces improve their farming techniques. Victor also held specialist positions and worked closely with rural communities on crop production and agricultural education.

• Victor’s expertise combines scientific knowledge and practical field experience.
• Upon moving to Maui, Victor worked as a farm manager at Lahainaluna High School for over 11 years before retiring.
• Post-retirement, he became active in community outreach via radio, offering agricultural advice and support.

[03:51] Victor’s Agricultural Insights on Maui and His Work with Moringa
Victor notes the strong agricultural potential on Maui and his commitment to sharing his expertise. He mentions establishing a moringa plantation on Maui and producing moringa products, including capsules, which have been in demand both in the Philippines and locally.

• Moringa is identified as a superfood with numerous health benefits, especially from its leaves.
• Victor emphasizes moringa’s adaptability to Maui’s tropical climate, making it suitable for both home gardens and large plantations.
• The primary variety he grows is Moringa oleifera, which can be propagated by seeds or cuttings.

[08:13] Cultivation Details and Plant Characteristics
Victor explains moringa’s propagation methods and advantages:

Seeds generally have a high germination rate.

• Moringa is drought-resistant and requires minimal care.

[09:44] Health Benefits and Community Impact
Victor recounts numerous testimonials from people who have benefited from moringa, including relief from arthritis and diabetes. He stresses the concept that “food is medicine” and acknowledges the increasing interest in natural, food-based health solutions in the U.S.

• Moringa reportedly supports the immune system, slows aging, and helps manage diabetes.

••Approximately 33 known medical uses are associated with moringa, based on anecdotal and traditional knowledge.

• Victor notes that in the Philippines, natural remedies like moringa are commonly used due to limited access to advanced medical care.

[13:32] Moringa’s Role in Natural and Preventive Medicine
Victor highlights the traditional use of moringa as a preventive and healing food product, contrasting it with modern medicine’s approach, which often focuses on treating symptoms rather than prevention.

• Moringa is described as a powerful, organic, natural ingredient capable of addressing approximately 300 ailments according to various scientific sources.
• The plant is versatile and safe to combine with other foods and supplements.

[14:54] Consumption and Flavor Profile
Victor shares how he consumes moringa daily, both as powder mixed in coffee and in capsule form for convenience.

• The flavor is mild and somewhat similar to garlic but not overpowering.
• It can be incorporated into various dishes, including salads and even ice cream.
• Moringa capsules provide an easy, portable form for supplementation.
• No known risk of overdose from moringa consumption.

[16:07] Expansion Plans and Local Cultivation on Maui
Victor reveals he has nearly 2 acres of moringa plantation on Maui, producing seeds and leaves for powder and capsules.

• The plantation demonstrates vigorous growth and productivity.
• The moringa on Maui is mostly derived from Indian stock but is now organically grown locally.
• This local production avoids import tariffs and supports sustainable agriculture on the island.

[19:28] Victor’s Continued Contribution and Legacy Vision
Victor passed civil service exams in Maui and chose to work as a farm manager rather than other government roles. After retiring from Lahainaluna High School, he focused on developing the moringa plantation to raise awareness and provide a lasting legacy.

• At 99 years old, Victor remains active and passionate about moringa and agriculture.
• He envisions moringa as a significant health resource for Maui residents and visitors.
• Victor emphasizes the importance of local production and community education.

[23:27] Community Engagement and Product Availability
Victor and Jason discuss the current availability of moringa products on Maui and the potential for wider distribution.

• Moringa is not yet widely available on retail counters but interest is growing.
• Victor encourages people to contact him via email for questions or assistance.
• The product is promoted as “Maui-grown moringa”, highlighting local and organic origins.

[25:15] Field Visit: Moringa Growth and Harvesting
Jason and Victor visit the moringa plantation to observe the plant’s growth:

• Moringa grows rapidly, with new shoots ready to harvest every few months.
• The mature trees develop thick trunks; older trees can be several years old.
• Leaves are harvested for drying and powdering; stalks are not consumed.
• Drying is done using a dehydrator or sun-drying before powdering.
• Powder is then used to fill capsules or mixed into foods.

[27:37] Additional Botanical Notes and Grafting
Victor demonstrates grafting techniques on moringa and related plants:

• He grafted a plumeria plant on top of the moringa tree, creating a unique multi-flower specimen.
• Moringa flowers are white and edible, but the leaves contain the highest nutrient concentration.
• The diversity of moringa varieties and grafting techniques can yield different plant characteristics.

[30:03] Closing Reflections on Food as Medicine and Future Generations
Jason and Victor reflect on the importance of natural foods like moringa in health and environmental sustainability.

• Emphasis on teaching younger generations the value of natural, sustainable agriculture.
• Recognition that past generations missed opportunities for healthy living but younger people are embracing natural solutions.
• Moringa is positioned as a powerful tool to “save our planet and save ourselves” through natural health.

Aloha everyone. This is Jason Schwartz. I’m here in the field. What a field. Maui Maui neutralzone.com. Um, I am often in the studio on Mondays, but I know what it means to go out into the field because we have a very rich field here of Maui. And in this rich field, my friend Phyllis Robinson who works with young new farmers and some of her young new farmers and all the people she’s met over the years on occasion I’ve met some gems. And what she said to me was, “Jason, this is this gentleman is

Now, we’re going to get more specific, but what do you think of what you’ve seen here on Maui all these years? You see anything that Oh, yes. Uh, there is really a a great potential when I came here where I landed a job at Launa High School as a farm manager. Then after 11 years, 11 and a half years, uh I as a farm manager at Lahal Luna High School.

04:33

Yeah. I retired and come here to be also participating in a radio station. Yeah. Uh announcing to the people that if they need my help as an agriculturist, I could always help them. >> You’re still doing this? >> Oh, yes. So let me ask easily. Do you mind putting out your email address for everyone? >> Sure. >> So be here. What is your email address? >> I cannot remember right now. >> Okay. I’ll put it right on the screen.

09:03

very good uh germination percentage when you plant the seeds and for me I think the seeds is better than the branch because the seeds if you will plant the seeds it will the the tree that’s coming will establish a good root system way going down but with your plants the the branch of this moringa Yeah, it the roots will be going sideways. >> Shallow. >> Shallow. >> I see. >> Yeah. >> So, deep root is better for >> the is better. That is my experience. Yeah.

11:04

wait, let’s try a food plan. >> Let’s add or subtract from your food plan. That’ll help with inflammation. That will help lower blood pressure. That will help with diabetes and the numbers, right?
