P6: “Bukod sa mamahaling presyo point ng makina,
karamihan sa makina na kailangan namin ay hindi kompatibol
sa paghawak ng aming mga pananim.”(Apart from the expensive
price point of the machine, most the machine we needed were
not compatible on handling our crops.)
(Holtca, 2018).
37
P1: “Ang pagkakaroon ng isang mas epektibong machine ay
lalong kanais-nais para sa mga ito ay mas kapaki-pakinabang
sa katagalan, maaaring ito ay mahirap dahil sa kanyang
gastos, kahit na ito ay dapat bayaran.” (Having a much more
effective machine is preferable for it is more beneficial in
the long run, it might be difficult due to its expense,
although it should pay off.)
P6: “Mas gusto namin ng isang epektibong machine, para
sa karaniwang ang uri ng machine ay siguradong magkaroon ng
mas malaking kalidad at hindi makapinsala sa mga pananim.”
(We prefer an effective machine, for usually this kind of
machine are guaranteed to have greater quality and would not
damage the crops for the least.)
P7: “Kami ay mas gusto ng isang epektibong isa kaysa sa
isang mas mura isa, para sa mga ito ay mas mas mahusay na
magkaroon ng isang garantisadong kalidad para sa kanyang
operasyon.” (We much prefer an effective one than a cheaper
one, for it is much better to have a guaranteed quality for
its operation.)
P2: “Ang isang mahusay at mabilis machine ay mas
mahusay na, lalo na para sa kapakanan ng kahabaan buhay sa
kabila ng gastos, para sa pamumuhunan sa isang bagay na mas
mura ay maaaring hindi huling mahaba at function na rin.”
(An efficient and fast machine would be much better,
especially for the sake of longevity despite the expense,
for investing to something cheaper may not last long and
function as well.)
P3: “Gusto ko na mamuhunan ng higit pa sa matibay na
machine kaysa sa murang machine na kalaunan ay mapapaso mas
maaga.” (I would rather invest more unto durable machines
than cheap machines that would eventually expire earlier.)
Sub-theme 1.3: Accessible
38
(Having an effective machine would always be a nice thing to
have for it does make things more faster and convenient,
although having a least a cheaper machine would be better,
for it just makes it more accessible for all farmers, but
for now the farmers need a particular machine which is
modern, efficient, durable and should not be too expensive I
hope.)

sustainability and its beneficiaries (FAO, 2020). This

when it comes to regular repairs and built of the machine.)
Sub-theme 2.1: Others
P4: “Ang pagkakaroon ng upa out ay sapat na para sa
aming produksyon, kaya hindi namin naisip sa pamumuhunan ng
anumang karagdagang.” (Having to rent out is enough for our
production, so we never thought of investing any further.)
P8: “Makina para sa pagsasaka ay mahal talaga, ngunit
ito ay tulong ng maraming sa patlang at ang serbisyo na ito
ay naghahatid ng mahusay na, ang machine lamang bawasan ang
Labor kinakailangan at mas maginhawang sa patlang.
Samakatuwid, kung bakit ang pagkakaroon ng isang machine ay
lubos na isang pangangailangan para sa mga kagamitan.”
(Machines for farming are expensive, but it does help a lot
in the field and the service it delivers is excellent, the
machine just lessen the labor needed and more convenient in
the field. Hence why having a machine is quite a necessity
for equipment.)
P5: (Prefer not to answer.)
P7: “Hindi na kailangan, dahil hindi namin harapin ang
mga problema sa paghahanap ng mas mura bahagi o serbisyo,
dahil sa aming lokasyon.” (No need, for we do not face
difficulties on finding cheaper parts or services, due to
our location.)
The perception of the farm owners insists that they

P8: “Sa pagtatago ng machine, ito ay hindi na mahal
hangga 't ang regular na mga tseke kapag hindi ginagamit sa
halip madalas. Ang kumpanya ay karaniwang nagsasagawa ng
pana-panahong maintenance alinsunod sa warranty nito.” (In
storing the machine, it was not that expensive as long that
there are regular checks when not being used rather often.
The company usually conducts periodic maintenance in
accordance of its warranty.)
Sub-theme 3.2: Machine itself
P7: “Ang makina mismo ay karaniwang ang muling nangyari
problema, para sa mga ito break at obligates upang maging
repaired kaagad kaya hindi ito maging sanhi sa proseso ng
produksyon o paghawak ng mga pananim.” (The machine itself
is usually the reoccurring problem, for it breaks and
obligates to be repaired immediately so it would not cause
in the process of production or handling the crops.)
although others just rent out storage and machines, some are

the status and condition of the machine.)
45
obstructions and just a bit of the storage aspect, and its
46
for the crops which degrades the machine. It is quite a
seizing factor for our financial stability.)
P7: “May isang problema kapag ang makina nasira sa
isang maling panahon, lalo na pagdating sa pag-aani o
planting. Ang makina lamang ay hindi maaaring mahawakan ito,
samakatuwid ang pagkakaroon ng kapasidad ng paggamit at
operasyon nito.” (There is only a problem when the machine
just breaks at a wrong time, especially when it comes to
harvesting or planting. The machine just could not handle
it, therefore having capacity of its usage and operation.)
P8: “Pinsala ay karaniwang nangyayari dahil sa ang
operator ay hindi na sanay, kaya ang mga bahagi ng machine
ay kinakailangan para sa mga tseke at regular na kapalit,
kaya sa pangyayari para sa isang mas murang ruta, kami
malutas sa paghahanap ng mga alternatibo at mas mura
hahalili, upang itaguyod ang kanyang habang-buhay. Sumusunod
na mga tagubilin na ang kumpanya ay nagbibigay din ng
tulong, para sa mga ito ay ipahiwatig ang paminsan-minsang
oras ng talahanayan para sa pagbabago ng langis, bahagi,
bilang ng paggamit, atbp, ang tibay ay tama, kahit na
wastong pamamahala ay kinakailangan. Ang tanging dahilan
kung bakit maaari naming pumunta up kung bakit ito break ay
dahil sa hindi wastong paghawak at pamamahala ng machine.”
(Damage usually occurs due to the operator is not that
skilled, thus the parts of the machine are needed for checks
and regular replacement, so in hindsight for a cheaper
route, we resolve on finding alternatives and cheaper
replacements, to promote its lifespan. Following
instructions that the company gives also helps, for they
would indicate the periodic time table for changing oil,
parts, number of usage, etc., the durability is alright,
although proper management is required. The only reason we
could come up why it breaks may be due to improper handling
and management of the machine.)
According to the preceding statements from above, it

P6: “Sa tingin namin ito ay dahil sa kung paano ito ay
binuo, naisip din namin na ito ay maaaring hindi huling
dahil sa iyon, ngunit dahil ito ay kapaki-pakinabang para sa
aming sakahan, isinasaalang-alang pa rin namin sa pagmamay-
ari ng isa.” (We think it is because of how it is built, we
also thought that it might not last because of that, but
since it would be beneficial for our farm, we still
considered on owning one.)
P7: “Ito ay ang makina mismo, para sa ilan sa aming mga
machine ay hindi bagong bago o ang iba ay may isang depekto
pagkatapos ng pagbili” (It is the machine itself, for some
of our machines are not brand new or others have a defect
after purchase.)
P8: “Hefty investment ay kinakailangan para sa machine,
kahit na ito ay Sarahan up ang bilis ng produksyon sa
patlang, kaya ito ay lubos na makatwirang upang makakuha ng
isa dahil ito ay maghatid ng mga benepisyo. Sulit ang
halaga, ang wastong pangangasiwa at maintenance ng
alituntunin ay kailangan lamang.” (Hefty investment is
required for the machine, although it does fasten up the
pace of the production in the field, so it is quite
reasonable to obtain one since it does deliver benefits. The
cost was worth it, just proper handling and maintenance
guideline is needed.)
