Abstract

Field trial on tomato production was conducted under two sources of fertilizer through integrated application with and without mulching material to measure the growth, productivity and profitability of the said crop in the province of Masbate. The study was laid in a two-factor factorial Randomized Complete Block Design. Fertilizer treatments were tested in treatment of mulching (rice straw and control). The factorial treatment combinations were as follows: A1B1 - no fertilizer and without mulching; A2B1 - complete fertilizer without mulching; A3B1 - goat manure without mulching; A4B1 - complete fertilizer + goat manure without mulching; A1B2 - no fertilizer and with mulching; A2B2 - complete fertilizer with mulching; A3B2 - goat manure with mulching; A4B2 - complete fertilizer + goat manure with mulching. The study revealed that the treatment that exhibits higher growth (plant height and number of branches) and yield (38.41 t/ha.) is in the treatment under complete fertilizer + goat manure. The same treatment also obtained higher number of fruits (543) and higher number of marketable fruits (424) per treatment with significant difference. In terms of the fruit size, length and diameter of the tomato, complete fertilizer + goat manure shows dominant effect. Profitability showed significant difference between treatments were the complete fertilizer + goat manure, complete fertilizer, goat manure, and control got 1,334, 1,265.15, 517.51 and 52.20 respectively. Therefore, the integration of organic (goat manure) and synthetic fertilizer (Triple 14) will enhance the yield of the tomato in Masbate and it is highly profitable.

Abstract

The choice of a study program is an important decision as it forms the foundation of an individual's career and professional development. This decision can influence a student's future in terms of academic success, self-understanding, and career goals. This study examined the factors that influenced the choice of BS in Agriculture as a course in the DEBESMSCAT-Cawayan Campus and the students' perceptions and level of acceptance regarding this course. A quantitative research design was adopted, and data were collected through a survey questionnaire distributed to BS Agriculture students. The findings indicated that personal aspirations and interests, peer influence, limited options, and practical considerations were significant factors influencing course selection. Factors such as economic status, dream course, and ease of employment held varying levels of influence on students' decision-making process. The study also revealed that students perceived BS in Agriculture as a course that brought satisfaction, offered hands-on experience in agriculture, and presented favorable job prospects. The study emphasized the importance of intrinsic motivations, practical involvement, and career prospects in course selection. Furthermore, students acknowledged the course's value in providing knowledge and recognized its demand in national and international employment markets. These findings provided insights for educational institutions and policymakers to design strategies and support systems that catered to students' preferences, enhanced informed decision-making, and promoted agricultural education. Further research was recommended to explore the specific reasons behind these factors and delve deeper into students' motivations in choosing BS in Agriculture as a course.
