- W2788893711 abstract "The common cropping patterns in the study area were vegetable-rice and vegetable-vegetable, with tomato as one of the alternate crops. Tomato was planted in the months of December, January, February, and October. The average area planted to tomato ranged from 250 to 500 sq.m. Tomato farming was found to be profitable. A 35-basket production (60 kg/basket) from a 500 sq m area and a per kilo price of P11.67 showed a benefit cost ratio of 2.01. Tomatoes in Benguet were brought to Baguio City, La Trinidad, Angeles City, Pangasinan, Tacloban, and Manila. The average volume sold weekly per trader ranged from 1,000 to 3,000 kg. A 100-200% mark-up in price was commonly practiced. The estimated net income of the traders was P22,000/week. Technological intervention recommended was the use of new and improved varieties to increase productivity such as varieties highly tolerant to pests and diseases and longer seed degeneration. Introduction of proper cultural management practices was also recommended, particularly on the control of late blight and bacterial wilt. Other practices and technologies recommended included reduction on the use of chemicals, practice of Integrated Pest Management, and restoring soil fertility. Infrastructure interventions recommended by the study include: 1.) the provision of farm to market roads and tram lines to enable the vertical and horizontal movement of the vegetables along the mountainous terrain of Benguet; 2.) putting up of postharvest facilities, such as cold storage facilties that will ensure longer lasting tomatoes that will command better prices for the farmers; and 3.) communication facilities to ensure quick and up-to-date transfer of information crucial for effective production and marketing decisions. The study also recommended farmers' empowerment through the formation of cooperatives among tomato farmers so as to gain more clout in the market" @default.
