Foreword
It is a common practice among farm owners to clear their land ofexisting vegetation to give way for selected agricultural cropseither seasonal or permanent crops. Others clear also their landto give way for livestock and for other uses.
The Lava farm is different. Instead of removing other vegetationin the area, we have opted to preserve and conserve them in situ.A botanical collection of plants of different species of trees, palms,
vines and shrubs that can serve later as a laboratory for studentsof the state university and other schools in the municipality, asidefrom other interested groups and individuals.
The protection and conservation of the forest area in the Lavafarm is worth replicating by other farm owners because of itsenormous benefits, among them to name a few are biodiversity

conservation flora and fauna! and climatic amelioration of themunicipality and ad"acent areas which is beneficial as it willattract ecotourists, support the watershed, and maintain lushvegetation for which Lucban is noted for.

The Lavas have no intention of removing this residual forest in their farm lot.Instead they would like to preserve it knowing fully well its advantages. %orone, it ameliorates the climatic condition in the area. Another very importantadvantage of the forest is it conserves water to the extent that even duringsummer there is water on the tributaries traversing the property. Anotherconse&uence of having a residual forest in the area is that it prevents soilerosion and its forest litter enriches the soil, an important factor because theLavas are into organic farming.
The Residual Forest4That no stumps of big trees were found in the area shows that the trees hadbeen logged before. Only a few trees were found to have a diameter class ofmore than '( cm in diameter at breast height dbh!, indicating that it is aresidual forestm meaning that the trees growing in the area were eitherplanted there by the birds and animals through their droppings or could havebeen disseminated by wind. An example of which is mahogany )wieteniamacrophylla!, an exotic species. The seeds of mahogany are winged, hence,it could have been carried there by wind. Another winged fruit are the fruitsof )horea species , the white lauan and the red lauan! of the *ipterocarpfamily. %ruits of other tree species with big seeds and thick shell which are
not digested by animals like the lumbang Aleuretis mollucana) of the family+uphorbiaceae could have been brought there by wild pigs through theirdroppings.
Other species found in the area are introduced or were planted there by theLavas likemangosteen, durian, ipil, murlberry, and madre the agua, to name a few.

4reast height dbh! were correspondingly measured and the trees wereproperly numbered with a water based paint.
Trees in the Area4The inventory shows that there are a total of seventy nine 56! tree species
woody plants! and six 7 ! nonwoody plants belonging to the familypalmae that are growing in the area., The first ten 3(! dominant species asshown in Table 3 are lamog, lanete, kulis, makaasim, tibig, salab, takipasin,batino, malapapaya, and salingugon. Table 8 also shows the rest of thespecies in the area. There are also some twelve 38! species, Table 9, thatare introduced in the area. +xcept for the :adre de Agua whose leaves are agood source of feeds, the rest are indigenous but were planted in the areabecause of their economic importance, like the mangosteen, durian, cacao,and mabolo or kamagong. Table ' also shows some of the nontimber speciesfound in the area. These are species belonging to the palmae family andamong them are coconut or niyog, kaong, anahaw, giant fern, and bamboo
