CHAPTER 1
Eggplant is a widely cultivated as perennial Asian herb ( Solanum melongena) of the night shade
family yielding edible fruit.
General Objectives
The general objectives of the report are to develop student’s proficiency in agricultural
skills through actual experiences.
Specific Objectives
PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION
The eggplant production is implemented by the project proponents to achieve the following
objectives:
DISCUSSION
Procurement of seeds and other materials seeds and Inorganic fertilizer were bought at Aves
Agricultural Supply at Benito Soliven, Isabela.
Land Preparation
The area was cleared from weeds and other previous vegetable residues. After which
the area was plowed and harrowed. This was done in order to totally clear the area and properly
pulverized the soil.
Two plots were farmed using grub hoe and shovel with a dimension of 0.5m by 15cm
with an alley way of 30cms between the plots. Holes were also established on the plots at the distance.
A seedbed measuring 0.5 meters and 2.0 meters was constructed. The soil was
pulverized thoroughly mixed with compost and leveled. Seed were sown evenly onto the seedbed and
sprinkled with water. This was monitored daily until the seedling was ready for transplanting.
Transplanting
Only the most vigorous stocky and disease free seedlings with 3-5 true leaves were
transplanted at a distance of 60cm between hills and 1 meter between rows.
Fertilization
Twenty five grams of triple 14 mixed with ample amount of compost were applied on
holes of transplanting side dressing was also done by applying one teaspoon of urea per plant at
fourteen and twenty five days respectively after transplanting.
Water Management
The plants were watered when necessary it is desirable that plants receive sufficient
moisture from the early stage of growth until the early fruiting stage.
Cultivation and weeding is also need by the plant. The operation was done to till the
weeds and accrete the soil
Pest Management
Eggplant borer was observed damaging the plants. However, this was controlled by
spraying botanical pesticide using hot pepper and powder soap.
Harvesting was done by simply picking. Harvesting was done in the morning and afternoon at
five days interval or as soon as marketable size fruits were developed and whenever there are orders.
Marketing the harvest fruit were sold to the teachers, students in the campus while excess
produce were sold to the different barangays nearby through house to house basis.
Record keeping
All activities and expenditures in the production were properly recorder and well kept
to determine whether the project is profitable or not.
CHAPTER III
SUMMARY
EGGPLANT PRODUCTION
Mentioned below are the problems encountered by the students during the conduct of the
project:
From the problem encountered above, the following solutions are therefore recommended:
1. Gathering Information
2. Proper time of establishment of broader project
3. If necessary, group members should pay the agreed contribution.
CHAPTER V
CONCLUSION
Before conduct a project, think more about the season of the crop when is the best time to
plant your commodity. To make your product will gain profitable and successful.
