Copra cake, a by-product of the coconut oil industry of the Philippines was subjected to a solid state fermentation process using technology developed by Biotech of UP Los Baños in order to enhance the protein content of copra meal to about 45% that is comparable to soybean meal. This processed product is known as protein …
This program has developed an alternative source of larval feed especially when rations of live microalgae are insufficient. Microalgae paste was utilized for two production cycles in order to determine its acceptability and profitability compared with the conventional hatchery protocols. The program also developed proper packaging of the microalgae paste and determined its optimum shelf …

Mass production and brackishwater microalgae and performance evaluation for milkfish and shrimp Project 3. Improved microalgal production systems through carbon dioxide supplementation This program aimed to produce paste from Tetraselmis, Nannochloropsis sp. and Chaetoceros sp. paste using culture boxes for indoor …
Based on the results of the study the following conclusions were drawn: The biological characteristics of Saug watershed is already degraded considering the low biodiversity for flora, fungi, birds, arthropods and other life within the watershed. The water use efficiency of white lauan was higher compared to ilang-ilang and this indicated better performance of the …
The Quinali Watershed’s natural and man-made features, the land cover and corresponding land use, and the climate, particularly precipitation, affect the quality of its water bodies. The water quality data from fourteen sampling stations within the Quinali Watershed show that elevation influences the water temperature, electrical conductivity and total dissolved solids (TDS). The correlation analysis …
This project is a member of the national watershed network with the primary aim of developing a management decision support system for watersheds. It has the specific objective of generating watershed database, establishment of monitoring plots within the watershed, installation of monitoring instruments, and conducting watershed related studies along the categories of bio-physical characterization, socio-economic …
The watershed has a relatively flat to moderately sloping to rolling topography starting from the lakeshore going towards the mountains. In the case of the Pagsanjan-Lumban Watershed, the drainage density value is relatively high, which may be due to the presence of impermeable sub-surface material, sparse vegetation and high relief. The dominant land cover in …
Primary objectives of the project are measured based on the existing data and information generated within the study duration of the program. As part of the Learning Watershed Program in the Philippines, Muleta watershed has established baseline data for watershed management decision support system through watershed monitoring. The watershed has geomorphologic features of a total …
