     CHAPTER 1
Background and Problem of the Study
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
      Some of us are familiar with nuggets. It is one of the well-known products
in the whole world. We can avail this in any sari-sari store, supermarkets, fast
food chains, and other different types of food chains. Chicken nuggets is a
product made of chicken meat that is usually breaded or battered, then deep-
fried or baked. The researchers conduct a research about “ Cassava Nuggets “
to innovate and form another twist of Nuggets.
      The researchers chose Cassava as an alternative to Chicken meat. Aside
from being affordable, Cassava is rich in Carbohydrates which is the main source
of energy of human body. It can provide more calories instead of cereals and
other root crops. The absence of carbohydrates in human body can cause
diabetic ketoacidosis, hyperosmolar coma, and hypoglycemia, all affect the
central nervous system.
      Robert Baker who was the inventor of chicken nuggets, was just looking
for a way to use leftover chickens. It was not really popular until the famous fast
food chain McDonald’s sell their Chicken McNuggets that paved way to Robert
Baker’s Chicken Nuggets.
      Cassava is a root crop vegetable that is the end part of the cassava shrub,
which has a latin name “Manihotesculenta “. Cassava are originated in the
countries of Brazil and Paraguay.

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
       Cassava starch is one of the best fermentable substances for the
production of ethanol. At the moment, sugarcane is the most widely used crop for
bio-ethanol in the tropics, but sugarcane requires a lot of water (Ado et.al)

REVIEW OF FOREIGN LITERATURE
       Cassava is available year-round. Tapioca root, as it is called most
frequently in India, is referred to as ‘Cassava root’ in America and is known as
Mandioca, Manioc, and Manihot in other parts of the world. Botanically, the plant
is known as Manihotesculenta. The Central American plant and root are known
as ‘Yuca’,pronounced YOO-ka, which is the Native American word for Cassava.
It is sometimes confused for the desert plant, yucca, pronounced YUHK-a, which
is unrelated to the root vegetable. Tapioca root is one of the most adaptable and
drought-resistant plants, making it an ideal food crop for a variety of
environments. Tapioca root is the source of tapioca starch or flour, which is a
popular gluten-free alternative.
       Tapioca root is the third largest source of carbohydrates in the world (over
corn and rice) and is considered a main food staple for over 500 million people.
The starchy tuber is high in calcium, dietary fiber, potassium, and vitamins B6
and C. It has relatively no protein, but does contain high levels of iron and
essential fatty acids. The leaves contain higher amounts of both protein and
valuable nutrients than the root. Tapioca root is also said to be helpful in aiding
digestion.
       Tapioca root is most often used in India in its processed, starch form.
Made into Tapioca pearls or strips, it is added to dishes and beverages. In
western India, Tapioca root is most commonly made into starch “pearls.” This
form of Tapioca is often called “sabudana” in the local Marathi language and is
used during times of fasting in the Hindu religion. In southwest India,Tapioca is
called “kappa” in the local Malayalam language. Particularly in the town of
Kerala, India, the tuber is a mainstay of the local diet. Often paired with fish for a
‘meen curry’, is the official dish of Kerala, India.

REVIEW OF LOCAL LITERATURE
Cassava (Manihotesculenta), sometimes also called manioc,is the third largest
source of carbohydrates inhuman consumption in the world, with an estimated
annual world production of 208 million tonnes.         In the Philippines, it is commonly
called as kamotengkahoy or balinghoy.
       Cassava is extensively cultivated as an annual crop in tropical and
subtropical regions for its edible starchy tuberous root, a major source
of carbohydrates. According to Kuiper, 2007 Cassava's starchy roots produce
more food energy per unit of land than any other staple crop. It is a major source
of low cost carbohydrates and as taple food for 500 million people in the humid
tropics. On infertile land where the cultivation of other crops is difficult, unless
considerable inputs are applied, cassava still has a reasonable yield.
       Cassava thrives better in poor soils than in any other major food plant. As
a result, fertilization is rarely necessary. However, yields can be increased by
planting cuttings on well drained soil with adequate organic matter. Cassava is a
heat-loving plant that requires a minimum temperature of 80°F to grow. Since
many cultivars are rought resistant, cassava can survive even during the dry
season when the soil moisture is low, but humidity is high.
       The plant grows tall, some reaching 15 feet, with leaves varying in shape
and size. The edible parts are the tuberous root and leaves. The tuber (root) is
somewhat dark brown in color and grows up to 2 feet long. According to Sugino
and Mayrowani, 2009 the crop is highly efficient in producing starch, is available
all year round, is tolerant to extreme stress conditions, and fits nicely within
traditional farming systems. Fresh roots contain about 30% starch.
REVIEW OF RELATED LOCAL STUDIES
          In this study, it shows that cassava as the third largest source of
carbohydrates for human consumption. Also that cassava produce more energy
per unit of land than any kinds of crop but still low in cost that set as staple food
for those people in the humid area. (Kuiper et. al, 2007)
       Because it is better in poor soil, cassava is more easy to produce than any
other major food plant. In the Philippines, our climate is always averaging on 30-
35° celsius so that cassava is more capable of growing in it. The more the
supply, the more the production for the demand. Also, cassava is always
available all year round. (Sugino and Mayrowani, 2009)

REVIEW OF RELATED FOREIGN STUDIES
       This study shows that cassava variety Sri Pontian was launched by
Malaysian Agriculture Research and Development Institute (MARDI) in October
2003. This variety is suitable for the production of pre-mix flour, chips and
crackers as well as plain and seasoned nuggets.
       Cassava nugget is adapted from traditional Javanese cake commonly
known as getuk ubi. Since consumer acceptance for frozen, battered and
breaded products has increased (Chuah 1994; Hasimah et al. 2002), new
products from cassava can be developed in a similar extent.
CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
The focus of the study is to determine the feasibility and viability of producing
Cassava Nuggets in Biñan Integrated National High School.

   Production process use
       o Batch Production
           As a starting business, the researchers take into consideration
       all the factors in producing the products. The researcher will be
       using the Batch Production. The researcher will be using this
       production because it is the most realistic method for a blooming
       business.
        Batch production is a method of production that creates several
    items at the same time in a series of production steps. The items that
    are created together are known as a batch.
   Product Costing
   Procedure of production
          1) Prepare all the ingredients and tools/equipment that need.
          2) Grate the cassava using the grater
          3) After grating, put in a bowl, and set it aside afterwards
          4) Next chop the garlic, onion, magic sarap, egg, pepper and
             corned beef with kamoteng kahoy, then mix it. Using hands
             is better to ensure that ingredients are well mixed, just
             ensure that you wear gloves to ensure cleanliness
          5) Heat the pan and put cooking oil. Let the oil heat-up for a
             few minutes.

   Wastes and waste disposal method
       The easier method of waste management is to reduce creation of
waste materials thereby reducing the amount of waste going to landfills.
Waste reduction can be done through recycling old materials like jar,
bags, repairing broken items instead of buying new one, avoiding use of
disposable products like plastic bags, reusing second hand items, and
buying items that uses less designing.
    Recycling and composting is a couple of the best methods of waste
management. Composting is so far only possible on a small scale, either
by private individuals or in areas where waste can be mixed with farming
soil or used for landscaping purposes. Recycling is widely used around
the world, with plastic, paper and metal leading the list of the most
recyclable items. Most material recycled is reused for its original purpose.
