GUEVARRA, ABNER LEZARDA, Applied Research IV of the Agricultural Science Curriculum, Don Severino Agricultural College, Indang, Cavite, April 1995 "PRODUCTION PERFORMANCE OF SANGLAY UPLAND RICi AS AFFECTED BY MADRE DE CACAO AND IPIL-IPIL LEAVES AS FERTILIZERS''. Advisers: Mr. Epifanio H. Feraer.
The study "Production Performance of Sanglay Upland Rice as Affected by Madre de Cacao and Ipil-Ipil Leaves as Fertilizer" was conducted to compare the effect of madre de cacao and ipil-ipil leaves as fertilizer on the growth and yield of Sanglay, and to find out which is more effective to be recommended for rice culture of sanglay.
The treatments used were the following:
Treatment O - 30 grams (6 bags per hectare) of ammonium sulfate, Treatment 1 - 1.5 kilograms of ipil- ipil leaves, Treatment 2 - 1.5 kilograms of madre de cacao leaves, and Treatment 3 - 0.75 kilograms of ipil-ipil leaves plus 0.75 kilograms made cacao leaves with the total of 1.5 kilograms.
The average number of tillers and the average number of panicles shows non-significant result. However, the weight of 1,000 seeds and the computed yield per hectare gave a highly significant result on rice production. Significant results were also obtained on weight of grains per panicles, average number of grains per panicles, and number of days from planting to heading stage. This shows that ipil-ipil and madre de cacao leaves as green manure fertilizing materials have significant effect on the yield of sanglay.
