    Severity of bacterial leaf blight disease and yield of PSBRc72H (Mestizo1) as influenced by cultural practices
    Agudera, Juan P., Jr.; Capili, Lolito N. (Southern Philippines Agri-Business and Marine and Aquatic School of Technology, 2013)
    A study on the severity of bacterial leaf blight disease (Xanthomonas oryzaepv. oryzae) and yield of PSBRc72H (Mestizo 1) as influenced by cultural practices was conducted at the Central Mindanao University Agricultural Experiment Station (AES), University Town, Musuan, Bukidnon from July- November 2006 to identify combinations of different cultural practices that could provide conditions unfavorable to bacterial leaf blight disease, their effects on the yield and agronomic characteristics; and correlate the different cultural practices, agronomic characteristics, yield components, severity of bacterial leaf blight the yield. The applications of controlled irrigation practices such as applied once a week, saturated and intermittent, any of the four NPK rates (80- 60-120, 100-60-120, 80-80-140 and 100-80-140) and planting at wider distances (20 cm x 30 cm and 30 cm x 30 cm) provided conditions unfavorable to bacterial leaf blight disease. Yield was higher if applied with continuous irrigation and planted 20 cm x 20 cm and 20 cm x 30 cm than applied with controlled irrigation which was intermittent, saturated and once a week and planted at wider distance (30 x 30 cm). Applications of any of the four NPK rates (80-60-120, 100-60-120, 80-80-140 and 100-80-140) did not affect the yield. Bacterial leaf blight disease accounted 33.49%; cultural practices 10.29 %; the agronomic characteristics 40.87%; and the yield components 8.78% respectively, on the variation in yield.

    Performance of corn (Zea may Linn.) to the application of mudpress-based organic fertilizer
    Macarayan, Olympio B.; Campaner, Alexander M.; Mercado, Marcelina Fe G.; Fuentes, Augie E.; Revilla, Nila Nanette S. (Southern Philippines Agri-Business and Marine and Aquatic School of Technology, 2013)
    The developed mudpress-based organic fertilizer (MBOF) had been tested to corn following the Fertilizer and Pesticide (FPA) protocol. The trial was conducted in Brgy. Dulangan, Digos City. Corn ear length and number of corn ears per plant were not affected by the fertilizer application. However, plant height, ear diameter, fresh weight of corn ear, dried weight of corn ear, weight of kernel after drying and computed yield were significantly improved by the application of inorganic and MBOF or their combinations. Positive response of corn was noted among these variables, thus, MBOF can be utilized as an ideal organic fertilizer.
