Abstract: This farm practice project was undertaken at Barangay Lumipa, General Emilio Aguinaldo, Cavite, to demonstrate to the farmers the latest approved cultural practices on intercropping of mongo and tomato under the coconut and banana plantation. The primary objective of the project was to develop the capability of student interns to put into practice the technical know-how in maximizing food production through intercropping pattern. A 5,000 square meter field was plowed and harrowed twice at an interval of one week to allow weed seeds to germinate and the organic materials to decay. The last plowing was followed by harrowing to ensure the levelling of the land. Mongo and tomato were planted under the coconut and banana plantation. Complete fertilizer and seeds of mongo were broadcasted uniformly at the same time followed by harrowing to cover the seeds and fertilizer. Mongo seeds were planted on September 15, 1984 while harvesting took place on November 25 to 30, 1984. Tomato seedlings were transplanted in the field by setting them at a distance of 75 x 60 centimeters twenty one days after germination. Transplanting was done late in the afternoon to avoid wilting of tomato seedlings. Plants were fertilized three weeks after transplanting. The amount of fertilizer used for 5,000 square meter land was 130 kilograms. The operating expense for the project was financed by DBAC-AEOP loan program. But due to unfavorable condition and the presence of pests and diseases the project gave a net income of one thousand one hundred fifty five pesos only (01,155.00) after deducting the total expenses of one thousand eight hundred fifteen pesos (01,815.00) from the total return of two thousand nine hundred seventy pesos (P 2,970.00).
