Abstract: JECIEL, DANILO V., Don Severino Agricultural College, Indang, Cavite, April 1985. "Economic Analysis of Coffee-Based Farming Systems in Selected Upland Towns of Cavite". Adviser: Professor Alice T. Valerio. The study was conducted in three selected upland towns of Cavite, namely, Mendez, Amadeo, and Silang. A total of ninety respondents was interviewed in the study, thirty from each of the selected municipalities and cropping patterns identified. The study aimed primarily to 1) determine the cropping patterns employed by the respondents; 2) com- pare the different cropping patterns in terms of in- come, employment and production; 3) ascertain the relationship between the cropping patterns employed by the respondents and their levels of income, employment and production; and 4) identify the problems encountered in employing the different cropping patterns. Three cropping patterns were identified in the study: cropping pattern I coffee-banana; cropping pattern II - coffee-banana-papaya; and cropping pattern. III coffee- banana-chayote. In the cost and return analysis, cropping pat- tern I with coffee and banana gave the lowest net return of P35,701 and cropping pattern III got the aver- age net return of P90,737 while coffee-banana-papaya cropping pattern gave the highest net return of P111,608. In comparing the identified cropping patterns in terms of income, employment and production, the F-computed for both income and employment was significant at five percent level of significance. However, coffee production did not differ significantly in any of the identified cropping patterns. On the other hand, in the analysis of the relationship of the cropping patterns and income, employment and production, it was found out that all the three variables were significantly related to the cropping patterns employed by the respondents.
