Application of small-scale agrivoltaics in the growth performance of tomato and eggplant variety/ Vienn Josef B. Dacayo Bayombong: Nueva Vizcaya State University, 2024. x, 52 leaves : illustrations, photos ; 28 cm. The study was undertaken to prove if a small area of around 35 square meters was self-sufficient in the production of electricity capable of supplying crops under an Agrivoltaics structure and had a significant effect on the growth performance of Tomato Atlas F1 and Eggplant Callixto Variety. The study was conducted from September 2023 to June 2024 at the field site on the lot of Edgar D. Dacayo besides the residence located at J. Manzano St., Solano, Nueva Vizcaya. The Agrivoltaics system proved to be successful in supplying AC energy obtained from the solar energy generated to the AC submersible pump and deliver water to the tomato and eggplant variety crops from both the experimental and control soil plots through pipe irrigation. This thesis was meant to be an entryway in combining the application of solar energy, construction of a solar structural framework, management of a photovoltaic system, the supply and modification of a pipe irrigation system, and production of crop varieties. It was a difficult undertaking but the execution of all the systems combined would lead to a more efficient use of land areas on producing both solar energy and crops.
