|
Brief
Description: |
Organic
fertilizers are highly recommended for the growing
of tomato to enhance its growth and development.
This technology is highly acceptable by farmers
since these products are environment friendly.
Hence, this study was conducted to determine the
performance of tomato spilled with exquisite. This
is a new organic-based product and is both a soil
conditioner and a Bio-organic fertilizer and the
researcher would like to determine their effects on
the growth and yield of tomato. |
|
Details: |
The yield and
agronomic characteristics of tomato applied with
exquisite as soil conditioner and bio-organic
fertilizer significantly reduced the number of days
to flowering and improved plant height and its
reaction to pest and diseases. The number of fruits
harvested was increased by 24 to 28 percent.

Title: |
Fuel Gas from
Domestic Waste
|

|
Brief
Description: |
Most of us today
rely on liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) for fuel in
our stove wherein its price is increasing. The
present situation motivates the researchers to
explore high-yielding, organic materials in the
production of fuel gas for our stove.
The objective of
the study is to obtain information whether or not
organic waste materials or mixtures would yield high
percentage of fuel gas. Results of this study will
be beneficial and is a very good solution to our
energy problem. |
|
Details: |
Result shows that
internal organs of fish can be used to generate fuel
gas and can be used as substitute to LPG in our
stove. Yellow fin internal organs can generate 33
to 83 percent while tilapia internal organs yielded
gas 82 to 92 percent more than the control, which
are legume wastes. The generation of gas from
organic wastes can be explained chemically with
their protein content being broken down to amino
acids then to methane gas through the action of
enzymes. This is recommended for commercialization. |

Title: |
Anti-Pollution
and Gas Saver Device |
|

|
Brief
Description: |
Sultan Kudarat is
a fast-growing province. To date, no air pollution
monitoring and evaluation exists, particularly in
the City of Tacurong. There is a need to preserve
the quality of air by developing a low-cost
anti-pollution and gas saver device. The researcher
thought of producing an alternative technology for
vehicles. |
|
Details: |
The developed
anti-pollution and gas saver devices are for motor
vehicles and have been found to be affordable and
very easy to install. They are 15 times cheaper
than the commercial device. When attached to the
engine, they will help solve the problem of air
pollution and fuel consumption. |

Title: |
Development and
Evaluation of Banana Chips from Cavendish Banana |
|

|
Brief
Description: |
Fruit like
Cavendish banana is highly perishable. It cannot
endure long period of storage. Developing a new
product like banana chips out of the surplus
Cavendish banana in banana plantations in Mindanao,
which is just thrown and fed to animals, would mean
greater income for Cavendish producers.
The objectives of
the study are:
-
to determine
the acceptability of banana Cavendish if processed
into chips;
-
to determine
the cost and return analysis; and,
-
to determine
shelf-life of the product.
|
|
Details: |
Using the
standard procedure in the processing of Cavendish
banana into chips, the one-fourth kilo banana slice
with 5 cups syrup has been found to have a
shelf-life which lasted for 1 month. The product is
crispy and appealing with a sweet taste and had the
highest general acceptability. Its return of
investment is 25 percent. It means surplus
Cavendish banana can be saved by converting it into
processed chips. |
