Risk-Efficient Planting Schedules for Corn in Matalom, Leyte, Philippines
Philippine Journal of Development Number 66, First Semester 2009 Volume XXXVI, No. 1 Risk-efficient Planting Schedules for Corn in Matalom, Leyte, Philippines remBerto a. PatindoL, Canesio d. Predo, 1 and rosaLina g. de guzman ABSTRACT The study was conducted to identify risk-efficient cropping schedules for corn farmers in Matalom, Leyte, Philippines using stochastic dominance analysis of simulated yields, given the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) forecasts during the cropping period. Actual weather data, with missing observations estimated using a weather generating software, were used in constructing weather data sets. These data, together with crop parameters and soil characteristics in the study site, were used as inputs to generate probability distributions of yields during different planting schedules. The simulated yield distributions were classified according to the ENSO phases prevailing during the cropping period. Stochastic dominance analysis was applied on the yield distributions to determine the first-degree stochastic dominance (FSD) set and the second-degree stochastic dominance (SSD) set. Finally, stochastic dominance with respect to a function (SDWRF) was applied on the SSD set to identify risk-efficient schedules at different levels of risk aversion. 1 Remberto A.

Landslides Have Become Very Frequent in Leyte Which Justifies the Need for Soil Assessment and Characterization of the Landslide-Prone Areas in the Province
Annals of Tropical Research 412 ( ):1 1529 -1 (201 9 ) © VSU, Leyte, Philippines Landslides have become very frequent in Leyte which justifies the need for soil assessment and characterization of the landslide-prone areas in the province. This study assessed the physical characteristics of soils from the landslide areas in Cadac-an watershed in Leyte, Philippines. Landslide cuts located in the central highlands of Cadac-an watershed were used as representative profiles in this study. These were examined, characterized and sampled for the analyses of soil physical properties which include particle size distribution (Pipette method), bulk density (Paraffin-clod method), particle density (Pycnometer method), porosity, total soil wet density, water holding capacity and field capacity (Gravimetric method), saturated hydraulic conductivity (Constant head method), liquid limit and plastic index. Generally, soils from the landslide areas in Cadac-an watershed had a sandy loam to clay loam to clayey texture, low bulk density, low particle density, high porosity, moderate total soil wet density, moderate to high water holding capacity, low to moderate field capacity, moderately high to high saturated hydraulic conductivity, moderate liquid limit and low plastic index. Based on the above characteristics, the soils are susceptible to landslide occurrence thus it is highly recommended to conduct constant assessment and monitoring of the area. Keywords: landslides, soil physical characteristics, watershed, Leyte, Philippines One of the disaster prone areas in the world is the Philippines. It is characterized by the presence of the active Philippine Fault Zone which passes at the center of Leyte cordillera and is located in the dangerous zone known as the Ring of Fire , where a large number of earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and other disasters often occur. -
Site Qualitiy Evaluation of Soils in Degraded Uplands of Inopacan, Leyte and Sta
International Journal of Agriculture, Forestry and Life Science, 2 (1) 2018, 52-61 ORIGINAL PAPER e-ISSN: 2602-4381 Received: 23.02.2018 Accepted: 30.05.2018 Published: 15.06.2018 SITE QUALITIY EVALUATION OF SOILS IN DEGRADED UPLANDS OF INOPACAN, LEYTE AND STA. RITA, SAMAR Jessie SABIJON Northwest Samar State University, San Jorge Campus, San Jorge, Samar Faculty of the Department of Agriculture and Related Programs Corresponding author email: [email protected] Abstract Marginal lands have received wide attention for their potential role in food production and environmental rehabilitation. Hence, this study aimed to evaluate the ecological qualities of the two degraded upland soils in Inopacan, Leyte and Sta. Rita, Samar. Site properties were evaluated quantitatively in terms of rootability, availability of air, water and nutrients, as well as nutrient reserves. Results showed that both soils have shallow to moderate rooting deep, poor to moderate rootability, low to high air capacity and moderate to high available water supply to the plants. Moreover, both soils obtained higher nutrient reserves for cation exchange and the limiting factor for plant nutrition is given by the very low amount of nitrogen supply. Keywords: degraded soil, uplands, site quality evaluation INTRODUCTION Protection of the natural ecosystems is one of the present ecological problems. Previously, the concept of land degradation has evolved over the past decades. From 1980’s at present, the emphasis was more on soil degradation, in particular on erosion, but this has shifted towards a broader view of a decline in the quality of the land, and lately of the decreased capacity of the land to deliver “Ecosystems Goods and Services”. -
