CONSTANTE, ERLITA G. Don Severino Agricultural College, Indang, Cavite. "Production of Glutinous Corn Under Fallowed Upland Condition". Prof. Wilfredo N. Sierra (Adviser).
The project entitled Production of Glutinous Corn Under Fallowed Upland Condition was conducted from September to December 1994 at Barangay Kaytaposq Indang, Cavite. It aimed to demonstrate the capability of a land that was previously fallowed for several years to produce good quality crops. An area of 5,000 sq m that was previously fallowed was thoroughly prepared by alternate plowing followed by harrowing before the seeds were sown in the furrows. Two seeds of corn were hand drilled at a distance of 75 cm apart between rows and 50 cm between hills at a depth of 8 cm. During the early stage of the project, typhoon Katring occured which slightly damaged the crops. Corn ears were harvested 83 days after planting and sorted according to size for proper pricing. The ears were marketed at the field site on a wholesale basis.
The outcome of the project gave a 205.82% return on investment (POI) which implies that growing corn is profitable.
