DEVELOPMENT OF INDIVIDUAL FARMING SYSTEM

TITLE: La ASHIA FARM

RATIONALE

With the country's ever-increasing population

accompanied by a progressively shrinking farm holding,

Filipino farmers like in Oriental Mindoro is still striving

to adopt more and more efficient farming systems to

survive. They were diligent in practicing new technologies

to cultivate their rich and arable land which is producing

large quantities of rice, corn, coconut, vegetables andfruits like calamansi, banana, rambutan, marang or uloy,

lanzones and durian. For that, Oriental Mindoro is well

known as the Rice Granary and Fruit Basket of Southern

Tagalog. It still is the Banana King and Calamansi Kingof

the region. Its total agricultural area is 169, 603.34

hectares. Based on agricultural statistics, 85, 244

hectares are devoted to palay production while 21, 671

hectares to coconut plantation. The province, for the past

years, registered an average of 1 to 2 million cavans as

surplus in rice production. One of the town contributorsfor this Agricultural Development is the town of Baco.

Baco has both irrigated and rainfed palay farms and besides

well known from a BANANA king of Mindoro.

OBJECTIVES

The following are the precise objectives of the project:

to enhance standard of living of the farm-ownerto provide a balance food and income all year round

to generate positive effects on profitability overall

productivity

to bring crops and livestock into an interactive

relationship

to value the impact of using available natural resources


2/14

properly and avoid deforestation

to increase employment generation

to gain capital fund for the construction of the second

project(farm resort)

LOCATION AND SITE

Baco has also been known for its pristine beauty which

nature was bestowed, wherein the mountain provides a

sanctuary for a wide variety of flora and fauna and

breathtaking beauty of cascading waterfalls, this is the

perfect description of the farm site where to be located at

and made myself in love for.The farm site is almost 2-3kilometer away from LANTUYAN

RESORT and bounded near the school site of ASICO Elementary

School. It is containing an area of THIRTY FIVE THOUSAND

ONE HUNDRED THIRTY NINE SQUARE METERS (35,139sq.m.).The

Barangay where the farm site Im pertaining for is Barangay

BANGKATAN.

DURATION OF IMPLEMENTATION

The propose project will be implemented on the month

of November 2010 and onwards.

Benefits From Livestock And Crop Integration

Clearly, monocropping of coconut is no longer

profitable. The running of cattle and goat under the

coconuts provides important additional income, thats why

goat and cattle rising under coconuts is now widely

accepted as one of the methods by which the smallholder

farmer can increase his income and food supply. Livestock

are an extremely important component of farming systems for

a number of reasons. First, they are an important source of

cash income through the sale of animal itself through

fattening production and also products from it such as meat

and milk. Animals such as cattle provide draft power in

land preparation (cultivation and harrowing) and in

transporting farm products and household supplies. They

also play an important role in nutrient cycling in mixed

crop-livestock systems, depending on what they are fed and

whether or not manure is brought back into the field.

Allowing animals to roam and graze freely in the farm may

lead to overgrazing of young fallow vegetation, thereby

reducing the regenerative processes of a natural fallow.

Also, trampling may lead to soil compaction.

FARM MANAGEMENT

There is no magic wandthat can be waved to make the

general level of management on small farms more effectiveovernight. Such improvement should be realistically viewed

as an ongoing long-term task involving incremental gains

over time. This is the reason behind why Farm management

requires continuous activities concerning various

management strategies and methods that are employed to keep

a farm productive and profitable. Depending on the size of

the operation, the management process may need diligent

time services of a single farm manager or a group of

managers who oversee various aspects of the overall

project. Visiting farms and conducting your own trials and

record keeping will be very helpful.

Farm management is also concerned with how can the

individual farmer so organize a decision making process

with the factors of production - land, labor and capital

- on the farm, so adapt practice to particular environment,

and so dispose of product, as to yield the largest net


5/14

return, yet still maintaining the integrity of land and

equipment .

So the main idea in farm management is., No one is

more interested and concern than the owner. Farm owners

should take more time in caring, supervising, monitoring

and being in the farm. Because the best feeds and

fertilizers are the footprints of the owner around his

trees and farm.

SOURCES OF CAPITAL

The proposed project will financially support by

Agricultural loans and from family savings.

The net income for 1st year farm operation will be used

for the initial construction of the farm rest house with

total area of 5,000 sq. m. and yearly development as long

as there is a quite income from the farm management until

the main objective will be achieved, construction of rest

house to a fully farm resort of LA ASHIA FARM.
