Item Automated misting and android-based monitoring system for oyster mushroom (Pleurotus SP.) productionCabrera, Cedie Vince E. (Davao del Sur State College, 2024-06)This study was conducted to maintain optimal temperature and humidity, which is crucial for oyster mushroom growth; otherwise, it could impede mushroom development. An automated misting and Android-based monitoring system was developed to address this challenge. Other studies have used an automated mister; however, system monitoring is unavailable. Davao del Sur State College mushroom facility relies entirely on environmental temperature and humidity. The findings are as follows: A DHT11 sensor was used to read the temperature and humidity within a 5cm range from the sensor, spray mist when the DHT11 sensor detects a temperature of 28 degrees celsius and 72% relative humidity, HC04 Ultra-Sonic Sensor is used for water refill automation when the water reaches 7cm away from it, display humidity, temperature, and water level at 5 second intervals, and generate a graph based on average temperature, humidity, and water level calculated per month. The result of the study contributes to the agricultural aspects, specifically in mushroom farming, hence decreasing the farmer's workload and increasing the harvest yield, farming automation, and academic research. The research outcome is a foundation for new studies leading to a better understanding of farming with a more enhanced system for a better farming yield.Item Perceived influence of Korean drama on the lifestyle of development communication student viewers of Davao del Sur State CollegeTaypen, Jessa Marie G.

(Davao del Sur State College, 2023-08)This study aimed to assessed the acceptability level of potato seaweed cookies as a nutritious baked product of Davao del Sur State College. This study sought to determine the acceptability level of potato seaweed cookies in terms of their sensory characteristics namely; palatability, texture, odor, color and appearance. Evaluate the significant difference in the sensory characteristics of potato seaweed cookies among five (5) treatments as well as to identify the significant difference on the acceptability level of potato seaweed cookies among the respondents. 15 students and 10 faculty from Davao del Sur State College (DSSC), and 5 bakers from Matti, Digos City, Davao del Sur served as the study respondents. This study used randomized complete block design (RCBD), in a way that there were five treatments. According to the study findings, treatment 2 was found the most acceptable in terms of its sensory characteristics namely; palatability, texture, odor, color and appearance and it was indicated that there was a significant difference on the level of acceptability of potato seaweed cookies among five treatment as well as there was a significant difference of potato seaweed cookies among the respondents. This indicated that the measurement or the amount of mashed potato, seaweed and other ingredients from the treatment 2 was the most favorable to the respondents. Descriptive statistics, specifically the mean, T-test and Analysis of Varian (ANOVA) were used to analysed the data. The study recommended pursuing Treatment 2, as it was received the highest overall rating from the respondents. The participants shown contentment with the outcome of treatment 2, indicated that it had the potential to be further refined for commercialization.
