| Brief Description | This component study will assess the effects of developed organic-based inputs on rice and other major dry-season crops. The study will contribute to refining organic-based products to ensure optimal outcomes. Dry-season crops will be established at the organic farm after rice cropping. The crops to be considered will be based mainly on those identified from previous research that are suitable for organic management. This include the following: solanaceous (tomato), bulbs (garlic and shallot), crucifers (cabbage/wombok/pechay/cauliflower), cereals (glutinous corn). Careful investigation will be made such that factors like pest resistance, fertilizer requirement, days to maturity, response to prevailing agroclimatic conditions, and the like will be considered. All management practices will be noted, and agri-inputs will be produced by the research team. Growth and yield data will be gathered on all crop components to thoroughly analyze their performance as a basis for further recommendations. Soil samples will be collected for analysis before and after each crop cycle. |
