"Utilization of Full Fat Copra in Feeding Dairy Buffalo (Bubalus bubalis L."
Two studies were conducted to determine the effect of full fat copra supplementation on its nutrient digestibility and on the lactational performance of buffaloes. In study 1, nine buffaloes were distributed to three dietary treatments...

The fisheries industry has become one of Thailand’s important sectors in recent years as it has contributed to the country’s revenues from export income and foreign exchange earnings. The study analyzed consumption patterns of fish... Read more.MS in Agricultural Economics (Kasetsart University)"An Economic Analysis of Sustainability Status of Marine Capture Fisheries Resources, North Coast of Java"
Recently, the concept of development has changed from the old paradigm with economic growth as an indicator to sustainable development as a new paradigm with broader aspects considered. This has influenced the changing of assessment policies of...

This study evaluated the effects of different level and timing of nitrogen (N) application and row spacings, as well as a combination of these factors on bending resistance and yield of aerobic rice. Two field experiments were conducted... Read more.MS in Agronomy (University of the Philippines Los Baños)"Characterization of the Sub1 locus Conferring Submergence Tolerance in the Rice (Oryza sativa L.) Variety 'Goda Heenati'"
Molecular markers for submergence tolerance would accelerate breeding progress by increasing selection efficiency. Resistance to submergence stress is an important breeding objective in areas where rice cultivars are subjected to complete...

A rapid assessment of smallhold poultry raising in three different regional locations of the country indicated that farmers kept mostly nondescript native chickens in small flocks. While farmers expressed high preferences for faster growth and... Read more.MS in Animal Science (University of the Philippines Los Baños)"Dynamic Floodplain Visualization of Unsteady Flood Models using Geographic Information Systems (Case study: The Downstream Ciliwung, Jakarta, Indonesia)"
Downstream Ciliwung in Jakarta was the focus of the study for the reason that flooding has always been a constant problem to both the immediate residents and the local government. Local planners and decision makers are in need of accurate...

A study on the effect and relationship of land use patterns on runoff (average, peak, and volume), sediment yield, and pesticide loading on a watershed scale was conducted on four selected upland microcatchments in Manupali Watershed in... Read more.MS in Soil and Water Engineering (University of the Philippines Los Baños)"Effect of Single Resistance Genes and their Pyramid on the Diversity of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae Population Under Field Conditions as Revealed by Insertion Sequence-polymerase Chain Reaction (IS-PCR)."
Knowledge of plant-pathogen interaction and pathogen population structure can contribute to sustainable manipulation and deployment of host resistance in disease control. A molecular technique that is reliable but simpler than other methods... Read more.PhD in Molecular Biology and Biotechnology (University of the Philippines Los Baños)
