Item Performance of corn (Zea may Linn.) to the application of mudpress-based organic fertilizerMacarayan, Olympio B.; Campaner, Alexander M.; Mercado, Marcelina Fe G.; Fuentes, Augie E.; Revilla, Nila Nanette S. (Davao del Sur State College (Formerly SPAMAST Digos Campus), 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.Item Performance of corn (Zea may Linn.) to the application of mudpress-based organic fertilizerMacarayan, Olympio B.; Campaner, Alexander M.; Mercado, Marcelina Fe G.; Fuentes, Augie E.; Revilla, Nila Nanette S.

Asuncion L.; Melencion, Ralf O. (Southern Philippines Agribusiness and Marine and Aquatic School of Technology, 2008)PREFACE There is a general recognition in the Philippines and in Region XI of the importance of an appropriate cardaba banana farming for better yield and higher farm income. Appropriate production practices for cardaba crop is a basic requirement in sustaining cardaba farming. The important criteria of good, sound and appropriate cardaba production practices include good irrigation and drainage, maintained farm hygiene and soil fertility, timeliness of pest, diseases control, proper fruit care and handling and population control. Cardaba production is an important component in a coconut farming system as an intercrop. Also, it is grown in backyard/small scale, yet, its agribusiness potential is enormous. Good, sound and appropriate management for better production and higher farm income is the framework provided in the pamphlet. The authors wish to express their appreciation to the Commis[s]ion on Higher Education for funding the reproduction of this pamphlet as an important contribution towards the development and sustenance of cardaba in the country's agribusiness sector.
