A comparative study on the effectiveness of nature farming and conventional farming technologies on the growth and yield of Dapit-saka rice selection
(Central Philippine University, 2007-10)
The agronomic characteristics and yield of Dapit Saka rice selection grown using the conventional farming and nature farming methods were compared and the effect of the different nature farming concoctions against rice pests and natural enemies were evaluated from November 2002 to February 2003 in Bongco, Pototan, Iloilo. Results revealed that rice whorl maggots (Hydrellia philippina), white leafhoppers (Cofana spectra), green leafhoppers (Nephotettix virescens), brown planthopper (Nilaparvata lugens), rice stemborers (Scirpophaga innotata) and grasshoppers (Oxya hyla intricata) were found feeding on rice. Natural enemies observed included a mirid bug (Cyrtorhinus lividipennis), lady beetle (Micraspis crocea), damselfly (Agriocnemis spp.), ground beetle (Ophionea nigrofasciata), vespid wasp and spiders (Lynx spiders, Oxyopes spp.; dwarf spider, Atypena formosana; Orb spider, Argiope catenulata; and long-jawed spider, Tetragnatha maxillosa). It was noted that the use of nature farming technology and the absence of pesticides in the control resulted in more natural enemies. However, plants grown in conventional farming were significantly taller, had the most number of tillers, and heaviest panicles. These resulted in the highest grain yield of 3,466 kg/ha, a net income of P19,643.00 and an ROI of 130.80 % . These values exceeded those of plants in the nature farming technology by 1,641 kg/ha, P 5,612.65 and 25.80%, respectively....
Terrestrial macrophytes assessment in Camp Higher Ground, Barotac Viejo, Province of Iloilo, Philippines
(Central Philippine University, 2018-12)
This study was conducted to establish baseline data on the terrestrial macrophytes in Camp Higher Ground (CHG), Brgy. San Nicolas, Barotac Viejo, Iloilo. Specifically, this study determined the terrestrial macrophyte level of plant community diversity measured in terms of species richness, species composition, and relative abundance, and determined the conservation status of plant species in the area as a logical step in protecting the threatened species from possible extinction. The assessment was done on September 2017 – January 2018 employing the descriptive survey method. Data were collected from the 1000m<sup>2</sup> sampling area composed of 10 quadrants each measuring 10 x 10 m<sup>2</sup>. There were 123 plant species recorded that belong to 100 genera and 61 families. Results revealed that trees were 56.9%; shrubs, 13.8%; vines, 13.0%; herbs, 7.3%; ferns, 5.7%; and palms, 3.3%. Shannon-Weinner Diversity index for CHG was high (H’=3.867). Thirty-one, 31 (25.2%) macrophytes were categorized threatened. Among these, two were critically endangered: Agboi (Mussaenda philippica L.C. Rich.) and Bugauak morado (Clerodendrum quadriloculare (Blanco) Merr.). The endangered species were Duklitan (Planchonella duclitan (Blco.) Bakh. f.), Bahai (Ormosia calavensis Azaola), and Salingogon (Cratoxylum formosum Benth & Hooker). However, 30 (24.3 %) plant species were considered endemic. During the conduct of the study, some forest clearing, wood harvesting, and minor charcoal-making operations were discovered which posed threats to this natural habitat especially of threatened and endemic macrophytes. Proper conservation program should be implemented by the CHG management to prevent further biodiversity loss....
