Matel, Ambrosio Esguerra, "Profitability of Making Selected Native Desserts in Indang, Cavite", B.S. Thesis, Bachelor of Science in Agriculture, Major in Agricultural Economics. Don Severino Agricultural College, Indang, Cavite, March 1984.
The study aimed primarily to determine the 1) socio-economic characteristics of native dessert producers; 2) cost of producing and marketing native desserts; 3) total production and sale from native desserts; 4) gross income and net income of the native dessert producers; and 5) the problems encountered by the native dessert producers.
This study was conducted in the town proper and four selected barinios of Indang, Cavite namely: Buna Lejos, Kayquit, Calumpang Cerca and Tambo where some people were engaged in native dessert production. The native des-serts selected under study were "bibingkang kanin","bibing-kang alsa","bibingkang niyog", "bibingkang balinghoy", "puto", "kutsinta", "mahablanta", "duldol na mais", "sweet rice/pinipig peche-peche", "cassava/pinipig peche-peche", "kalamay bona", "suman sa lihiya", "puto bungbong", and "buchi". A sample of 70 respondents was selected through quota and random sampling methods.
Most of the producers were in their late thirties and early forties. However, the average age- was 42 years. In general, the native dessert producers reached only the elementary level of education. They were support-ing an average of four dependents. The production and marketing costs incurred by the producers varied from each variety of native dessert., The level of production of kalamay and bibingka producers was somewhat low. This may be partly explained by the fact that the producers had small capital to invest thus resulting to low production. The total costs in-curred by the native dessert producers were relatively high. This was to be expected since the production costs incurred by the producers were generally high. The ave-rage gross income obtained by the producers was X840 for "bibingkang kanin", $525 for "bibingkang alsa", $2,100 for "bibingkang niyog", $784 for "bibingkang balinghoy", $420 for "puto", $350 for "kutsinta", X490 for "mahablancor, and"duldol na mais", $1,925 for "sweet rice/pinipig peche-peche", X1680 for "cassava/pinipig peche-peche", $1,092 for "kalamay Buna", 1700 for "suman sa lihiya", $752.50 for "puto bungbong" and "buchi", 75728 for "buchi". The net income of the native dessert producers was somewhat high. The high profit indicates that the business was profitable.
The problems encountered by the producers in making native desserts were high cost of ingredients, lack of capital, limited supply of firewoods during rainy season, lack of time devoted in the business and scarcity of seasonal ingredients such as cassava and pinipig.
