Department of Science and Technology - Industrial Technology Development Institute (DOST-ITDI), DA - Fertilizer and Pesticide Authority (FPA), DA - Bureau of Soils and Water Management (BSWM)

is a practice of preparing soil for crop cultivation that involves the mechanical alteration of soil properties to create an optimal environment for crop growth

60°C

_________ contaminated raw materials should be avoided in the production of liquid organic fertilizer and organic plant supplement.

Heavy metal

is a practice of tilling the sloped land along the lines of consistent elevation to minimize and/or prevent soil erosion. Moreover, it stores rainwater through its ridges thus it conserves water

Contour farming

is a temporary ridge or excavated channel (or a combination of both) to reduce volume or the potential erosion by diverting the water around or from an area

Diversion canals

is a vegetated and shallow slope area that infiltrates microbes and runoff materials

Filtration pond/ Filter area

is a clearly defined and identifiable boundary between organic and non-organic area. Buffer zone prevents the introduction of, or contact with, prohibited substances from an adjacent area

Buffers/ Buffer zone

are usually established by planting single, double or triple rows of trees to reduce the wind speed, crop transpiration and unnecessary loss of soil water. Usually, Sugarcane or tall grass species are being used

Windbreaks

covers the surface soil with plant materials such as leaves, grass, twigs, crops residues, and straw, or plastic films. Use of mulch enhances the activity of the soil by protecting the porosity of the soil surface by disrupting the action of raindrops

Mulch

delivers water directly to plant roots, optimizing moisture levels for enhanced productivity. This method prevents disease, reduces weed growth, and proves cost-effective by saving time, money, and water. Additionally, it decreases labor, works effectively on uneven terrain, and minimizes leaching of water and nutrients, contributing to sustainable and water-efficient agricultural practices

Drip irrigation

determines the optimal timing and frequency of irrigation to meet crop water requirements while minimizing water wastage.

Irrigation schedule

is a crucial strategy for sustainable water use in agriculture especially during drought or dry season. This technique involves collecting and storing rainwater; and surface runoff using constructed ponds, reservoirs, or tanks. The stored water sources can provide plants with moisture when needed.

Capturing and storing water

is used to harvest surplus rainfall (runoff) produced in the catchment area and in-situ rainfall, and store the water for subsequent use

On-farm reservoir

occurs in soil that is rich in salt. In low-lying areas, the source of salts is seawater. Salts can also come from irrigation, where the water added to the soil is used by the crop, and the salt is left behind. As a result, the left- over salt accumulates and causes salinization

Salinization

is the process of land degradation that occurs in arid regions, leading to a reduction or loss of biological productivity, ecological integrity, and value to humans

Desertification

, also known as the Philippine Clean Air Act,

Republic Act (RA) No. 8749

is defined as the addition of new crops or cropping systems to an existing farmland. It can also be referred to as the changing of cropping patterns or the expansion of other non-farming activities

Crop diversification

is the practice of alternating the species or families of annual and/or biennial crops grown on a specific field in a planned pattern or sequence to break weed, pest, and disease cycles and to maintain or improve soil fertility and organic matter content

Crop rotation

is the planting of rows of trees and/or shrubs to create alleys within which agricultural or horticultural crops are produced

Alley cropping

is another type of multiple cropping system in which crops are planted on different dates and cultivated together for at least part of their life cycle

Relay cropping

is growing plants with different heights in the same field at the same time utilizing varying heights, root depths, and crop canopy
