Acceptability of ube (Dioscorea alata) ampalaya (Momordica charantia) pinwheel cookies
(Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University – Mid La Union Campus, 2022-05) Orpilla, Erika L.; De Castro, Fredhelane; Tumabcao, Junerey T.
Five (5) pinwheel cookie formulations with varying levels of Ube powder at 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% were prepared. Seven (7) trained panels rated the Ube Ampalaya Pinwheel Cookies. It was Likely Extremely for the level of acceptability. 60 consumer panelists. The microbiological analysis showed an aerobic plate count of 250 CFU g and less than 10 CFUg for mold and yeast count. This means that the researchers observed good processing practices during the production. The product cost was computed, and the Ube Ampalaya Pinwheel Cookies have a market price of Php 8.00 (25g) per piece
Geographic Information System (GIS) - Aided analysis on the Topographic characteristics of Gantay Watershed at Bacnotan, La Union
(Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University - North La Union Campus, 2014-03) Omanito, Darryl Patrick A.
Information on the topographic boundary and some important physical
characteristics of Gantay Watershed are not readily available. Resource managers require these kind of information to effectively manage his area of concern. Based from this situation, this study aimed to determine the topographic characteristics of Gantay Watershed at Bacnotan, La Union using Geographic Information System (GIS). Specifically it aimed to determine the topographic boundary and area of Gantay Watershed, determine the area distribution of the different slope categories, aspect, and elevation ranges, and to determine the accuracy of data generated from GIS.
Topographic map no. 7076-II San Fernando where Gantay Watershed could be found was used as the origin of all data generated on the study. Georeferencing and digitizing techniques were applied in order to derive accurate data from the map such as topographic boundary and contour lines. Using GIS surface analysis, data on slope, elevation, and aspect were generated. Ground verification was done to determine the accuracy of data. A confusion matrix was created in order to analyze the data.
In this study, the topographic boundary and area of the watershed were
determined. Result of the study showed that most of the area falls under 0-8% slope category, elevation of the watershed ranges from 0-530 meters above sea level, and most slope faces west direction. The study also produced map of the three topographic characteristics with considerable overall accuracy.
With the data produced from this study, watershed managers could have a basis in making logical decisions in order to formulate strategies for development in Gantay Watershed.
Extension information system for Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University North La Union Campus, Bacnotan, La Union
(Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University - North La Union Campus, 2012-03) Ngis-o, Johnny S.; Romero, John-John M.
This study aimed to develop an Extension Information System for Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University. Specifically, it aimed to determine the level of functionality, reliability, usability, efficiency and security of the system.
The study made use of the descriptive-developmental research design with the questionnaire, interview and observation as tools in gathering data and other relevant information. Further, Visual Basic 6.0 was used in developing the system and MS Access 2000 was used for data banking.
The level of effectiveness of the system as to functionality, reliability usability, efficiency and security was measured by using frequency counts and weighted means.
There were 20 respondents who participated in the assessment of Extension Information System, which included the Extension Director, Faculty Extensionists and the researchers' technical critic.
The result of the evaluation showed that the developed system was highly functional, highly reliable, highly usable, highly efficient, and very highly secured.
The researchers were able to design and develop an Extension Information System that can help computerize the manual procedures of the Office of Extension of the Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University to save time and minimize their time spent in processing office files and records.
Growth and yield of Finger Pepper (Capsicum spp.) varieties intercropped with Rambutann (Nephelium lappaceum linn.) tress as affected by organic fertilizers
(Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University - North La Union Campus, 2014-03) Egalla, Sharmaine L.
This study was conducted to determine the organic fertilizer that would give the favorable growth, and yield of finger pepper varieties; determine the finger pepper variety that is most adaptable to DMMMSU-NLUC condition in terms of its growth and yield and income, and to determine the best interaction effects between organic fertilizer and finger pepper varieties when finger pepper plants were planted between rambutan trees. It was conducted at the Agroforestry Research and Demonstration Farm, DMMMSU-NLUC from July 6 to December 6. The split-plot technique in Randomized
Complete Block Design was used. The treatments were: Main plot (organic fertilizers such as T0 (urea), T1 (chicken manure), T2 (cattle manure), and T3 (goat manure) and Subplot (pepper varieties)such as V1 (Django F1), V2 (Inokra), V3 (Panigang King F1), and V4 (Panigang best F1).
On the effects of organic fertilizer, results revealed that chicken manure and goat manure were the earliest to initiate flower, where cattle, chicken, and goat manures were comparable in terms of the final height and average monthly height increment of the finger pepper varieties, however, as to the computed yield per subplot and per hectare as well as the net income per subplot and per hectare, the goat and chicken manure give the highest although not significant.
In terms of the finger pepper variety, Django F1 and Panigang Best F1 were the earliest to first flower initiation. In terms of height, Panigang King F1 and Panigang Best F1 produced the tallest final height and average monthly height increment. On the yield per subplot and computed yield per hectare, and net income per subplot and per hectare, the Panigang Best F1 and Django F1 produced significantly higher over the Inokra and Panigang King F1.
On the interaction effects between organic and finger pepper variety, only the
height increment revealed significant difference. However, Panigang King F1 applied with chicken manure and cattle manure, and Panigang Best F1 applied with cattle manure were not significant. All the other parameters taken were comparable.
Response of Sweet Corn (Zea mays var. swee pearl) applied with levels of inorganic fertilizer intecropped with Rambutan
(Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University - North La Union Campus, 2014-03) Daguplo, Rutchell D.
This study was conducted to determine the growth, yield and net income of the sweet corn applied with levels of inorganic fertilizer intercropped with rambutan. It was conducted from October 13, 2013 to December 18, 2013 at the Agroforestry Research and Demonstration Farm (ARDF), DMMMSU-NLUC, Bacnotan, La Union. The area was prepared and laid out following the Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with four blocks and four treatments. The treatments were: T0- Control (RR- 3.25g of 460-0), T1- (RR + 1g0f 46-0-0), T2- (RR + 2g of 46-0-0) and T3- (RR + 3g of 46-0-0).
The study revealed significant results on plant height 65 days after planting,
however, no significant result was observed on the yield of corn ears and yield of corn cobs per plant, per plot and per hectare.
