Mga Mapuslanon nga Gamit Sang Azolla

By Erna Ticar

Ang azolla makita naton bisan diin nga lugar. Ang iya mapuslanon nga gamit dapat gid naton nga mahibal-an.

Abono sa lupa okun mga tanom. Butangan sang isa ka kilo nga uga nga azolla ang kada isa ka metro kwadrado nga lupa nga ginatamnan sang ulutanon. Kon sa palayan ihalo ang preska nga azolla lang sa duta nga pagatamnan sang palay mga 10 hasta 15 dias antes magtanom.

Magapahagan-hagan ukon nagatanom sang hilamon. Ang azolla nagatabon sa lupa gani ang hilamon hindi makapagusto sang tubo.

Sample azolla harvested in MS Gary Andrade's
darag native chicken farm in Libas, Banga, Aklan.
Pagkaon sa mga hayop. Ang azolla maayo nga pagkain para sa mga hayop pareho abi sang baboy, bebe, manok, kag iban pa. ang azolla may 24 hasta 30 porsiento nga crude protein. Pwede mapakaon sa mga hayopbisan preska, ugahon, okun lutuon man.

Pagkaon sang mga tawo. Ang  azolla isa man ka pinakamasustansya nga pagkaon kag nagalambot sa 35 porsiento nga protina nga kinahanglan sang aton lawas. Sa India, nagakaon kag nagagamit sang azolla ang mga mangunguma. Diri sa aton, may ara na nga nagakaon sang azolla. Ini ginamiksla sa binati nga itlog kag lutuon sa mantika—ginatawag nga egg azolla omelet.

Pagkaon para sa mga isda. Sa China, Vietnam kag Pilipinas, ang azolla ginagamit nga pagkaon para sa mga isda pareho sang tilapia, hito kag dalag.

Squash Flower as Lumpia Wrapper

By Elnor Briones
Extension Coordinator
Capiz State University Burias Campus

Fried lumpia is a finger food favoured by many because it is delicious and easy to prepare. But lumpia wrapper if at all sold in the local markets is costly nowadays. With some amount of ingenuity and after some trial cooking, I have discovered that right in our backyard is a costless substitute for lumpia wrapper—the squash flower.

What follows are the easy steps to make lumpia wrappers out of the squash flower.
  1. Collect newly opened flowers of the squash plant with the sepals and about an inch of the stem intact. Each flower will serve as one wrapper.
  2. Place the lumpia filling that you prepared inside the squash flower in an elongated form, following the length of the petals.
  3. Close the petals and seal with a pasty flour mixture.
  4. Deep fry until each lumpia is golden brown.

Squash flower is rich in vitamin A.

Integrated Farming System

Sabat sa Krisis sang Ekonomiya

By Dr. Nelson C. Berondo
Extension Coordinator
Capiz State University Mambusao Campus

Sa Pilipinas, panguma ang primera nga trabaho. Bangud sini, ang gobierno naglansar sang madamo nga mga programa kag proyekto para sa pagbulig sa mga mangunguma nga mapadako ang ila nga kita.

Ang mga programa nga ginlansar, pareho abi sang Masagana 99, Masaganang Maisan, Gulayan sa Kalusugan, Green Revolution, Bakahan sa Barangay, Animal Dispersal kag iban pa, may mayo nga mga motibo ukon lalambuton nga makahatag gid sing daku nga benepisyo sa mga mangunguma. Apang ang amo nga mga programa indi masyado nga nagin madinalag-on walay sapayan sang daku nga gastos kag kabudlay sang gobierno.

The Penalosa Farms, Victorias City, Negros Occidental
practices integrated natural farming systems by raising
poultry along with crops and vegetables.
Isa sa mga paagi nga mapasanyog ang agrikultura sang pungsod amo ang pagsunod sa programa o teknolohiya nga ginatawag Integrated Farming System. Ini nga teknolohiya amo ang pagpatubo sang nahanari-sari nga mga tanom pareho abi sang palay kag utanon, ka gang paghupot sang sari-sari nga mga hayop kag isda, sa bisan isa ka diutay lang nga bakante nga duta.  Sa sini nga paagi ang isa ka ektarya nga duta mahimo makasuportar sa mga kinahanglanon sang isa ka mangunguma kag ang iya pamilya.

Ang Panay State Polytechnic College Extension Institute nagasunod sa sini nga teknolohiya. Ang mga ehemplo amo ang mga masunod—mais, mungo, soybeans ukon bush sitao, palay, isda kag utanon; palay, gabi kag iban nga utanon; azolla, tilapia, gabi kag tangkong; saging, kamote kag okra; niyog, mais kag balinghoy; niyog, talong kag palay; niyog, saging kag pinya; saging gabi kag lanzones; niyog, saging,pinya, kapayas kag tabako; niyog, sweet pepper, lanzones, coffee kag pinya; kag iban pa.

The Regional R&D Consortium

Its Rationale, Mandate, and Developmental Implications

By Dr. Geronimo L. Gregorio, Ph.D.
Vice-President for Research and Extension

Working on the premise that in unity there is strength and that individualism breeds unwholesome competitions and wastage of resources, various GOs and NGOs involved in R&D programs and activities in the region have joined hands to work for a common goal.

As an answer to the long-observed inefficiency in R&D work, the above agencies and institutions more or less come to a covenant grounded on the belief that working together is the demand of the time.

Through the efforts and leadership of the Philippine Council for Agriculture, Forestry and Natural Resources Research and Development (Pcarrd), the Western Visayas Agriculture and Resources Research and Development Consortium (WESVARRDEC) was born in Region VI a few years ago. Similar consortia in the rest of the regions of the country were also put into existence with a multi-pronged objective geared mainly to upgrade, reorient and accelerate regional R&D undertakings. Now these consortia are getting stable and seemed to find themselves really essential as conduits of regional development.

In the light of the sluggishly growing economy, low farm incomes and productivity which manifest poverty in the rural and urban areas, R&D activities must find their way to address these complex problems. New technologies and innovations must be generated and more effective strategies of technology transfer must be evolved to make breakthroughs in agricultural production and improve the life of poverty-stricken households. Unfortunately, however, R&D agencies and institutions working individually did not make much to hit these targets. They seemed to have ended up with a status quo for years.

The formation of the regional R&D consortia then was thought by its framers and advocates as a solution to fragmented and random development efforts. By mandate, these consortia seek to unify efforts and pool resources—technical, financial, technological and material—to secure greater efficiency and productivity in agriculture and industries. Thus, their activities can effectively be identified, prioritized, planned, implemented, monitored, evaluated and coordinated. Under the present setup, member agencies can more efficiently collaborate and cooperate with each other hereby providing an open access for resource sharing. This scheme would undoubtedly maximize the utilization of both human and material resources of these agencies. In essence, it provides ample opportunities to these agencies for maximum participation and greater achievements in R&D undertakings.

These regional R&D consortia offer bright prospects both for member agencies and the people of the region whom these agencies are working for. These agencies can increase their R&D activities and become more participative in development work which must be a part of their mandate. Likewise, the people in their respective service areas can hope for more tangible, meaningful and lasting accomplishments essential to bring about and sustain agro-industrial development and progress.

For one, WESVARRDEC is apparently commissioned to take the lead in initiating and accelerating socioeconomic activities and development in their area of concern. This means their presence must revolutionize agro-industrial productivity, rehabilitate and protect the environment and improve the socioeconomic status of the poor. All member agencies then are challenged to come up with these expectations or else the consortium to which they belong will have a meaningless existence.

Beginnings and Visions

The PSPC Journal Takes a Bow
By Dr. Paz A. Ramos
Editor-in-Chief

The birth of the Panay State Polytechnic College Journal is a dream realized, a commitment fulfilled. For years, the College has been aware of the growing need for a publication which shall serve as channel for the dissemination of research findings of faculty members, staff and students.

For the fruits of research to be more meaningful, they have to become a part of the people’s way of life. Research has to provide answers to the multifarious problems brought about by a more complex society, rapid scientific and technological advancement and a keener struggle for survival.


The value of research can never be overemphasized. It is the lifeblood of educational institutions, a potent instrument for positive change. It is man’s expression of hope that he can move forward to a better quality of life. The publication of the PSPC Journal, therefore, comes at the most opportune time in the history of Panay Polytechnic State College. As such, its maiden publication is symbolic of a laudable achievement of the administration, faculty and the student populace.

It is hoped that this first issue of the PSPC Journal shall pave the way for the attainment of the objectives of the College along its multidimensional programs of instruction, research, extension and production. It is hoped further that through the years the PSPC Journal shall gather stamina and determination in its drive for academic excellence, steadfastness of purpose and thus realize the goals for which it has been dreamed of.

The Evolution of the CapSU R&D Journal

By Niño Saavedra Manaog
University Extension Associate
Capiz State University

Like in most institutions, research publications begin small and modest. These publications grow together with the institution and expand to accommodate bigger and progressing sensibilities, often producing more responsive studies and initiatives that seek to improve the lives of the community where the institution is based.

Through the years, the PSPC Journal, which first appeared in 1983 published by then Panay State Polytechnic College (PSPC), has undergone a number of editorships, now and then featuring a wide range of studies and research that cannot fail to assist and usher in a new breed of research minds who can help boost the progress of the community.

By the time PSPC became Capiz State University in mid-2000s, the research publication has already assumed a number of different faces under the different editors and leaders of research in this institution. Yet, the publication’s readership has not at all changed, perhaps only expanded to accommodate more audiences, researchers, scientists, scholars or otherwise. And when the 13th volume was released in 1999–2000, the publication was granted an ISSN 00189-7700-5.

As perhaps envisioned by Dr. Paz Ramos, the first editor-in-chief of the publication, “the value of research can never be overemphasized.” For the school of tradition, research work is the “lifeblood of educational institutions, a potent instrument for positive change. It is man’s expression of hope that he can move forward to a better quality of life.”
