Chapter 1 4 Pilipinuts
BACKGROUND
2. SETTING
2.1 Scopes and Limitation
To limit the scope of the study, the following will
serve as the boundaries and basis to prove the
project feasibility.
2.1a Users
2.1b Site
2.1b.1 Site Selection Criteria
generous rainfall.
1. Educational Zone
2. Agriculture Zone
Under this zone is the Research
Facility that takes care the cultivation
and propagation of pili nut in order to
grow it well and healthy. It is also
responsible in other farm operations.
Together with the research facility is
the research area or the nursery scion
grove where they study and take care
the plants. There is also a Post-
harvest facility that serves as an area
to reduce the loss of produce, add
quality into it and makes sure that it
reaches the specs and standards of the
clients or buyers.
3. Exhibition Zone
The exhibition zone is an area that
gives the micro and macro enterprises
an opportunity to showcase their bicol
products and introduce it locally and
internationally.
4. Commercial Zone
To create a Nursery
establishment/development to support the
asexual propagation method and to
address the scarcity in the supply of pili
farming materials.
7. Glamping - is a portmanteau of
glamorous and camping and describes a
style of camping with amenities and, in
some cases, resort-style services not
usually associated with "traditional"
camping.
3.2 Sub-problems
The following sub-problems will further support
the quest on deriving conclusions on drawn
instances.
Sub-problem 1:
What are the reasons on deficiency of pili supply
in the country?
The reasons why there is the deficiency
of pili supply in the country is because
there are factors affecting it.
Sub-problem 2:
Why pili industry remains on its unpopularity
state despite of its economic value?
This is due to the fact that there is no
facility solely for pili industry.
Sub-problem 3:
What are the propagation methods and farming
processes of pili?
Pili tree is a dioecious tree with one male
and one female organ. Propagation of the
pili can be accomplished using sexual
(seeds/seedlings), or by asexual
methods. Sexual propagation is the
natural method of plant multiplication
through seeds. However, it has been
noted that 50% of it resulted of maleness
and matured late about 8-10 years before
they bear fruit and they usually grow tall
and one of the constraints in harvesting.
The second is the asexual propagation
where using grafting and inarching
techniques. The advantages of that is it
produces true to type. The trees are low
and making harvesting easy. It also
matures and bears fruit as early as 2 3
years and assured 100% female
plantation.
Sub-problem 3:
What are the pili products that are already
available in the market?
The major products of pili are usually
made in the most commercially important
part of pili, the kernel. Aside from the
commonly known tree nut kernel which is
can very well compete with macadamia,
cashew, almond, and walnut in terms of
quality, export commodities derived from
Pili nut kernels such as pastries,
confectionaries, and a whole kernel is
emerging in the local and international
markets.
The pili pulp, which is also an edible part
of the fruit. It contains a good source of oil
and is comparable with olive oil. It can be
alternative in salad dressing and other
application in food processing (Pham and
Dumandan, 2016). The pili oil also used
in cosmeceutical and pharmaceutical
products. The popular brand using pili oil
on its product is the PILI ANI a Filipino
skincare line features varieties of pili
beauty products and market it locally and
internationally.
Sub-problem 4:
Are the elevation, soil and climate of Daraga are
suited for pili plantation?
Pili is a tropical tree, preferring warm
temperatures and well-distributed rainfall.
It grows at low to medium altitudes with 0-
500 meters, 24-32 degree Celsius annual
temperature, 2 500-5 000 mm annual
rainfall and deep, fertile, well-drained soil.
(Orwa et al.2009)
Sub-problem 5:
Is there near pili farms from the site?
Based on the data conducted by APAO,
Legazpi City 2015, Municipality of Daraga
is having 110 farms/farmers with an
estimated yield/500 fruits/tree/year of
566,000 fruits or 5.6 MT.
Sub-problem 6:
Is there near pili processors near from the site?
Sub-problem 7:
Is the site is near in airports, ports and railways?
The site is 3km away Bicol International
Airport and 7 km away from Legazpi
Domestic airport. It has 8.6 km travel
distance to Legazpi National Port and 34
km travel distance to Tabaco International
Port. Aside from airports and ports,
according to Albay Rep. Joey Salceda,
Barangay Comun in Daraga, Albay would
be the south central station of PNR and it
will pass through the southern barangays
beside the Bicol International Airport and
Maharlika Highway up to Villahermosa
village then going to Matnog town in
Sorsogon province.
ANALYSIS:
ORGANIC FARMING
Pilipinuts will adapt the way how Costales Farm
grows their crops organically by using
vermiculture. Vermiculture is the process of using
worms to decompose organic food waste, turning
the waste into a nutrient-rich material capable of
supplying necessary nutrients to help sustain
plant growth.
MODES OF STAY
Modes of stay in Costales Farm, like the
WELLNESS TOUR, LIFE IN THE FARM TOUR,
LAKBAY ARALTOUR and other farm activities
will set as a benchmark for the development of
farm activities in Pilipinuts.

describe vegan cuisine. But at the farm at san
benito, you can expect nothing less. Nutritious
and all-natural ingredients, most of which are
hand-picked from our own organic gardens, are
prepared using innovative methods to deliver
vegan cuisine that is exactly that.
The farm is home to one of asi
restaurants offering vegan cuisine, and is also

DISCONNECT IN ORDER TO
RECONNECT
Adapting the concept of glamping which gives
more distinctive farm stay experience to the
guests. Aiming to inspire people with the
glamping experience, a place that enables
people to disconnect in order to reconnect.
