Title : Postharvest Quality of Honeydew Melon (Cucumis melo L. var. inoduros) under Aggregate Hydroponic System as Influenced by Inorganic and Organic Nutrient Solutions
by Carlo M. Cabillo, Rosario A. Salas,
Abstract : Hydroponics crop production has significantly increased in recent years worldwide, which allows an efficient use of water and fertilizers, as well as better control of climate and pest factors. Furthermore, hydroponics production under protected structure can increase crop quality and productivity, which results in higher competitiveness and economic incomes. The study was conducted to evaluate the postharvest quality of honeydew melon (Cucumis melo L. var. inoduros) under aggregate hydroponic system using inorganic and organic nutrient solutions. Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) was used in this study with two test factors: Factor A – with and without foliar application of fermented malunggay and Factor B- Organic and inorganic nutrient solutions and combinations, replicated three times. Results revealed that honeydew fruit were harvested at the average days of 56 with 80-95% plants survival. Postharvest quality and properties, the free radical scavenging activity (FRSA), Chlorophyll a and b, carotenoids, vitamin C and oxidation-reduction potential were significantly affected by the different treatments. FRSA was higher in honeydew melons applied with the combination of trichantera and commercial nutrient solution. Fermented golden snail treatment obtained the highest value of chlorophyll a and b and fermented trichantera gave the highest total carotenoids. Commercial nutrient solution and fermented trichantera obtained the highest vitamin C and Oxidation-reduction Potential, respectively..

Title : Postharvest quality and respiration rate of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) as influenced by phytochemical and calcium coatings
by Fatima Rose C. Rivera, Carlo M. Cabillo, Marcelo A. Quevedo,
Abstract : Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) is one of the top fruits in the Philippines with high nutritional value. The study was conducted to determine the effects of various safe phytochemical extracts and Calcium chloride (CaCl2) on the postharvest quality and shelf life of tomato under ambient temperature and identify the most effective treatment to improve tomato fruit quality. The study was laid out using Completely Randomized Design (CRD). Tomato fruits were dipped in different fruit extracts and combination of CaCl2: T1-hagimit, T2-hagimit+1% CaCl2, T3 - starfruit, T4 - starfruit+ 1% CaCl2, T5-cat's whisker, T6-cat's whisker+ 1% CaCl2, T7 –Pineapple, T8-Pineapple+ 1% CaCl2, T9 -1% CaCl2, T10 -Control (untreated). Phytochemicals derived from starfruit with 1% CaCl2 had significantly delayed tomato fruit softening than control and other treatments. Phytochemicals of pineapple alone, hagimit and cat’s whisker combined with calcium effectively decreased the respiration rate of tomato fruits until 40 days of storage. Percent weight loss, visual quality rating, shelflife, pH value, TSS (Brix) and TA (%) were not significantly affected. This result indicates that the application of phytochemicals combined with calcium chloride as coating improves the fruit quality of tomato..

Title : EFFECT OF RICE TOTAL FACTOR PRODUCTIVITY (TFP) ON RICE OUTPUT IN NIGERIA
by Governor Ekene Oyita, Louis Bruno Efe Otuisi,
Abstract : This study critically examined the effects of Total Factor Productivity on rice output in Nigeria. Data for this study such as land area, labour, capital and rice output from 1961 to 2020 were collected from various sources such as World Bank online statistical depository, United States Department of Agriculture Economic Research Service [26], [8], [16]. Data were analysed using descriptive such as mean and graph and inferential statistics such as Ordinary Least Square Regression model. Result from the study showed that although there is a positive trend in rice TFP in Nigeria over the years, the average rice TFP is regressive (i.e., less than 1). Furthermore, rice TFP (coefficient = 12.282; p<5%) had statistically significant effect on rice output. The study therefore recommended that promoting the adoption of modern technologies and improving management practices, policymakers can help enhance TFP and increase rice output, thereby improving food security and promoting economic development..

Title : EFFECT OF RICE PRODUCTION INPUT VARIABLES AND CLIMATE CHANGE VARIABLES ON RICE OUTPUT IN NIGERIA
by Governor Ekene Oyita, Rosemary N. Okoh, Gbigbi, Theophilus Miebi,
Abstract : This study examined the effect of rice production input variables and climate change variables on rice output in Nigeria. Data for this study such as temperature, rainfall, relative humidity, sunshine duration, land area, labour, capital and rice output from 1961 to 2020 were collected from various sources such as Nigeria Meteorological Agency (NIMET), World Bank online statistical depository, United Nations online database, United States Department of Agriculture Economic Research Service [22], Food and Agriculture Organisation Corporate Statistical Database [7], [14]. Data were analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Specifically, the study revealed that rice output in Nigeria had a positive slope for the period under review. Land (coefficient = 0.212; p<1%), rainfall (coefficient = 1612.441; p<5%), relative humidity (coefficient = -81289.210; p<5%) and temperature (coefficient = 324766.300; p<5%) had statistically significant effect on rice output. Based on the findings of this study, it therefore recommends that there is need for rice farmers to adopt artificial irrigation in order to mitigate the effect of climate change for optimum rice productivity..

Title : An Empirical Investigation of Food Demand in district Kotli, Azad Kashmir-Pakistan
by Syed Kafait Hussain Naqvi, Izba Javed, Muhammad Luqman,
Abstract : This study is an attempt to empirically analyze the current and projected demand of selected food grains; namely Wheat, Maize and Rice in district Kotli, Azad Kashmir (AJK)-Pakistan. The aims of the study are to examine how prices and socio demographic factors affect the demand for food; determining own and cross price elasticities; and to project the future demand of these grains based on primary data using Simple Random Sampling during 2017-18. For the empirical investigation, Linear Approximation Almost Ideal Demand System (LA/AIDS) is employed and compensated and uncompensated elasticities are obtained. The findings show that cross prices affect demand of selected food grains significantly while socio demographic factors (gender, locality, age and education level) do not significantly affect demand of food grains. Compensated and uncompensated own-price elasticities appeared with the opposite signs whereas, all cross-price elasticities appeared with the positive sign as expected for substitutes (except uncompensated elasticity between Wheat and Rice, which shows, that these grains are complements to each other). Similarly, expenditure elasticities show that the selected grains are normal commodities for the households. Estimates of the future projection signifies that the demand for food grains is growing with the population growth and hence a high demand of food grains will be faced during 2017-2041. The findings are important grain producers and policy makers. Government should adopt population control measures or increase supply of food in Azad Kashmir..
