Pechay's Reaction to FPJ Levels

The document proposes a study to assess the response of pechay, a type of cabbage, to varying levels of fermented plant juice compared to a recommended rate of urea fertilizer. The study will measure effects on number of leaves, plant height, and yield, and aims to determine pechay's response to different levels of fermented plant juice and compare it to the response with urea fertilizer.

II. TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION:

Background of the Study:

Pechay (Brassica rapa L.) is an erect biennial herb, cultivated as an


annual about 15 – 30 cm tall in vegetative state. Ovate leaves are arranged
spirally and spreading. The petioles are enlarged and grow upright forming a
subcylindrical bundle. Inflorescence is a raceme with pale yellow flowers.
Seeds are 1 mm in diameter and are reddish to blackish brown in color.

A biofertilizer is a substance which contains living microorganisms


which, when applied to seeds, plant surfaces, or soil, colonize the rhizosphere
or the interior of the plant and promotes growth by increasing the supply or
availability of primary nutrients to the host plant.

Thus, this study will be conducted to assess the response of pechay to


fermented plant juice as treatment application whether it can enhance the
number of leaves, plant height and yield. Moreover, this can be compared to
the response of pechay to a recommended rate of 2 tbsp of synthetic fertilizer
(Urea 46-0-0) diluted to a 2 galllons of water, side dress along the rows at the
rate of 1 tbsp/plant 2 weeks after sowing.

Objective of the Study:

This study aims to obtain the following;

1. To determine the response of pechay to varying levels of fermented plant


juice using the number of leaves, the height of the plant and the yield as
variables; and
2. To compare these responses to a recommended rate of 2 tablespoon of Urea
(46 – 0 – 0) side dress along rows of the plant.

Significance of the Study:

This study can further determine and compare the responses of pechay
to varying levels of diluted bio – fertilizers as well as to a recommended rate of
Urea a synthetic fertilizer.

Methodology:

The soil media was the first one to be prepared to make sure that the
study has an equal and correct soil composition. Then, it was been put into a
polyethylene pot, afterwards, pechay seeds was direct seeded to a 21 potted
soil media and water immediately after sowing. And two (2) weeks after
sowing the first application of bio – fertilizer will be applied, same with the
controlled pot; a recommended rate of 2 tbsp per gallon of water will be
applied to pechay plant.
