The Rex compost tea brewer won 1st Prize in creative studies during the National Inventors’ Week in 2005. It additionally won second Prize for the discovery class all through the National Invention Contest and Exhibition in 2009, and represented the Philippines on the Taipei Technology Fair in 2010.
Other innovations on the farm encompass the “Gizelle Aerodynamically designed windmill,” which pump water for the crops, and the “Jimbo air flow device” for cooling homes, piggeries, and greenhouse gadgets.
The aerodynamically-designed windmill acquired severa nearby and international awards, such as Invention of the Year on the National Inventors’ Week 1984, Presidential Gold Medal award, and World Intellectual Property Organization Gold Medal award at the Exhibition of Young Inventors in Plodiv, Bulgaria 1985.
