FRAMEWORK OF THE PROGRAM

4th


DEMONSTRATION FARM Purpose


Vegetables are 70% organically grown

FOLIAR is the fertilizer applied to the leaves.

Don Bosco has initiated the production of

“foliar” from “vermicast”, earth worms, from

which we obtain vermi-tea. INOCULANTS


Preparation and application of organic materials (chicken

manure and rice hull) for the vegetable production

COMPOSTING: Don Bosco has facilities for

composting, to produce organic material for

vegetables and crops (GREEN MANURE)

Animal raising is the most feasible

agricultural enterprise in the upland areas

Majority of the expenses in growing

farm animals are FEEDS

CORN AND SOYA: 60 % of the ingredients


Don Bosco has set up feed mill facilities

to produce customized animal feeds


Don Bosco has adapted the appropriate

technology in GROWING CORN.


Don Bosco has experimented growing Soya

The results show that Soya grows

well in the Philippines


SOYA

It is one of the most important and

nutritious plant. Proteins (40%) and oil

� Human Consumption – milk, oil, vegetables

� Animal Feeds including forage

� Industrial Purposes, foam

� Bio-fuel and others

Importation of Soya has a value

of several billions of pesos a year


By growing, processing and utilizing soya,

Don Bosco intends to:

� Demonstrate that soya can grow well

� Illustrate the importance, appreciation

� Develop techniques in growing,

maintaining, harvesting and post harvesting

procedures ;

� Don Bosco uses soya only as animal feeds

A partnership of Don Bosco and DA

was conceptualized and in the

process of implementation


“Increasing the Profitability of Livestock

and Poultry through Community Based

Participatory Adaptation of Technology,

Improvement of the Production,

Processing and Marketing of Soya and

Corn for Animal Feeds”

To be implemented through the acquisition

and utilization of EXTRUDER MACHINE

Milling

1 ton

soya

a day for

100 bags

of feeds

Soya Corn

With

Diesel

engine


The main function of the

EXTRUDER machine is to

remove the inhibitors

harmful to animals

more nutritious feed

Proteins + oil = full fat soya


Extruder Machine will contribute:

�Encourage more farmers to grow

�Significantly decrease the cost

�Improve animal health

�Improve the technologies on crop

production, swine and poultry raising
