520	3		_aThe study, “Mustard Seed Production As Affected By Planting Distance '' was conducted at the Experimental area of the Don Severino Agricultural College, Indang, Cavite from September 1986 to March 1987. This study was per- formed to determine whether planting distance of mustard affects the production of harvested seeds. A land with an area of 100 square meters was divided into 4 equal blocks representing 4 replications. Each block was further subdivided into 5 plots constituting 5 treatments with an area of 3 square meters. A Randomized Complete Block Design was used in laying out and in distribution of treatments. Mustard seeds were sown in a wooden seedbox and transplanted 10 days after sowing at different planting distances which were as follow: Treatment 1, 18 cm by 10 cm; Treatment 2, 18 cm by 14 cm; Treatment 3, 18 cm by 18 cm; Treatment 4, 18 cm by 22 cm; and Treatment 5, 18 cm by 26 cn Watering was done everyday while weeding and cultivations were done upon the occurrence of weeds or when the soil appeared compacted. Similarly, pests and diseases were controlled by spraying three kinds of insecticides and py disposing infected plants Data gathered were the following: a) Number of days from transplanting to flowering; b) Number of days from flowering to pod maturity; c) Average number of leaves of plants at flowering; ad) Weight of pods per treatment;- e) Weight of clean seeds per treatment; f) Computed yield per hectare of harvested seeds. Based on the results of this study, mustard plants transplanted at the distance of 18 cm by 26 cm produced largest number of leaves at flowering and the heaviest weight of pods and clean seeds per treatment. With these findings the author concluded that the best planting distance in raising mustard for seed production was 18 cm by 26 cm and it is therefore recommended.
