Bayombong: Nueva Vizcaya State University, 2021 .
xx, 121 leaves : , In the study, to determine the most appropriate medium for the production of quality organic vegetable seedlings, vermicompost made from combinations of locally available substrates was explored. Specifically, the study determined the physicochemical properties of the different vermicompost’s, evaluated the effects of the different vermicompost’s on the growth of plug seedlings, determined the effect of the different vermicompost’s on the production of quality seedlings, and identified which among the treatments could influence the production of quality seedlings. The study was conducted from February 2021 to April 2021 in a greenhouse situated at the College of Agriculture Experimental Area of the Nueva Vizcaya State University (NVSU), Don Mariano Perez, Bayombong, Nueva Vizcaya. A 1:1:1 ratio of CD+BB+IP (T1), CD+BB+KK (T2), CD+BB+RS (T3), CD+BB+WH (T4), and GS, control (T5) was used following the Completely Randomized Design (CRD) on eggplant, tomato, and pepper that were separately set-up into A, B, and C, respectively. Each treatment was replicated three times. Physicochemical analyses and tissue analyses were done by the Department of Agriculture Regional Soils Laboratory in the City of San Fernando, Pampanga Results revealed that the different vermicompost’s, especially CD+BB+IP (T1) and CD+BB+KK (T2), have greatly affected the growth parameters of the seedlings, such as the number of leaves and stem diameter of eggplant, tomato, and pepper. Also, the aforementioned treatments affected the seedling height, fresh and dry shoot, and leaf color of tomato seedlings as well as the fresh and dry shoot and total leaf area of pepper seedlings. The shoot-to-root ratio was significant in eggplant and pepper seedlings but not in tomatoes. However, on the seedling emergence time (SET), seedling emergence rate (SER), and survival percentage (SS), the results were not significant for eggplant seedlings, but in tomato seedlings, a significant difference was noted for SET and SS. Moreover, SS was greatly affected by the different vermicompost’s in pepper seedlings, but no effect was noted for SET and SER parameters. In the tissue analyses of the different seedlings, high content of N and K was noted in the seedlings grown from CD+BB+IP, P from GS (eggplant) and CD+BB+RS (tomato and pepper), and Ca from CD+BB+IP (eggplant and tomato) and CD+BB+RS (pepper). Therefore, the production of quality organic seedlings can be improved by the combination of locally found substrates of CD+BB+IP and CD+BB+KK. | Thesis (Master of Science in Crop Science - Horticulture) 28 cm..

Bayombong: Nueva Vizcaya State University, 2021 .
xx, 126 leaves : , The study was conducted to evaluate the growth performance of eggplant and tomato plug transplants as affected by various organic amendments and substrate volumes under Kiangan, Ifugao condition. Specifically, the study aimed to identify the optimum ratio of growing media for each crop through organic substrate amendments; to determine the optimum volume of the substrate mixture, to determine the best combination of substrate mixture and substrate volume, and to determine the interaction between the substrate ratio and substrate volume on the growth and quality of vegetable plug transplants. The study was arranged in a split-plot completely randomized design with three replications The ratio of organic substrate amendments, I part garden soil (GS) + 1 part rice straw compost (RSC) part GS + 1 part VC, 3 parts GS + 1 part VC; and 1 part GS +3 parts VC were designated as main-plot while the substrate volumes, 50 cc, 100 cc, and 150 cc, were designated as sub-plot. Based on statistical analysis, the optimum ratio of growing media for both the tomato and eggplant plug transplants is the composition of 3 parts GS + 1 part VC. It is evident that it significantly affected most of the growth and quality in terms of seedling height, stem diameter, root weight, root length, root length density, root weight density, leaf area, leaf number, percentage emergence and root to shoot ratio. The optimum volume for both the eggplant and tomato crops is 150 cc. Hence, it is concluded that the best combination among the treatments would be 150 cc of 3 parts GS + 1 part VC. On the other hand, the substrate ratio of the growing media affected the tomato plug transplants in terms of internode length, stem diameter, root weight, root length, root length density, root weight density, leaf number and true leaf emergence. With regards to the interaction of the ratio and volume of substrates, there is a varying effect on the growth and quality of eggplant plug transplants in terms of internode length, root length density, root weight density and true leaf emergence. | Thesis (Master of Science in Crop Science - Horticulture) 28 cm..

Tuguegarao City, Cagayan: St. Paul University Philippines, 2021 .
v, 37 leaves : , In this highly challenging and demanding world, the presence of data and technology is overwhelming. The Rural Health Unit (RHU) of the Municipality of Solano, Nueva Vizcaya is currently using a manual system in terms of implementing medical services and patient profiling. A descriptive-developmental Interviews, research method, particularly observations, and document scanning, was conducted in order to gather data relevant to the objectives of the study. During the interviews, different problems on medical services were encountered in this manual method such as tedious work in assessing health conditions, difficulty in diagnosing, and high time consumption in backtracking previous health records. As regards patient profiling, there was difficulty in data processing because patient records were sifted from various source documents, there was a lack of confidentiality and security because of the absence of central storage, among others. With the extraordinary availability of data, these issues could be handled using data mining techniques to predict disease occurrences. In this study, clustering and classification techniques were utilized to predict disease occurrences of every barangay of the municipality at a given time. An efficient records-management system along with a decision-support system was developed to meet the challenges of the RHU. It mainly features the disease-occurrence mapping to assist physicians and other health professionals in their decision-making tasks particularly in diagnosis, treatment, and recommendations. In terms of the ISO/IEC 25010 Software Quality Standards, the system was assessed to have a "very great extent" of compliance. | Thesis (Master in Information Technology) 28 cm..

Bayombong: Nueva Vizcaya State University, 2021 .
xi, 141 leaves : , The study was conducted to determine the predictors of Language Learning Strategies (LLS) and English proficiency, as well as the relationship that exist between the two among the 314 students of Quirino State University. It also aimed to develop a Computer-Aided Instruction model and craft an English Proficiency Test (EPT) for second language learners. This study used the descriptive-inferential research design. Descriptive statistics was used to give account on the profile and the overall proficiency level of the student-respondents. The backward step-wise Multiple Regression Analysis was used to determine the predictors of Language Learning Strategies and English Proficiency and Pearson's correlation was used to look into the relationship that exist between them. Findings reveal that respondents have a Low English proficiency level. It also reveals that majority of the respondents described the six Language Learning Strategies as Usually True of them and Metacognitive strategy is the most used strategy. Respondents think of the relationships between what they already know and the new things they learn in English is the dominant Memory Strategy. Watching English language TV shows or go to movies spoken in English to aid them learn the English language is the main Cognitive strategy used. Along compensatory domain, if they can't think of an English word, they use a word or phrase that means the same thing. Metacognitive strategy, they plan, monitor, evaluate and regulate their language learning process. While for Affective domain, respondents encourage themselves to speak in English even when they are afraid of making a mistake. In Affective strategy, if they do not understand something in English, they ask the other person to slow down or to say it again. Sex, Ethnicity and Parents Educational Attainment were the predictors of Language Learning Strategies while none of the predictor variables can predict the English proficiency. The English proficiency is not significantly associated with the adoption level of LLS. The result of the study can be an eye opener to school administrators and educators in validating and reinforcing the level of Language Learning Strategies and English Proficiency of the students. This can also serve as potent factor in introducing meaningful activities that will gradually increase their performance in English. Keywords. Computer-Aided Instruction, English Proficiency.

By Miguel, Jaymike G..
Bayombong: Nueva Vizcaya State University, 2021 .
xv, 89 leaves : , A field study was conducted at Miguel's family farm located at Purok 3, Maasin, Quezon, Nueva Vizcaya from December 2020 to February 2021. This study aimed to determine the field performance of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) varieties as influenced by applied rice hull ash (RHA), evaluate the single and combined effect of variety and RHA on the growth and yield of cucumber, identify the cucumber variety that would give better performance when applied with RHA; determine the most appropriate rate of RHA for best field performance of the test varieties, and determine the most appropriate variety and rate of RHA for optimum growth and yield of cucumber. The experiment was laid out in a 2 x 6 Split-Plot arranged in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications. The main factor treatment corresponded to cucumber varieties, Thunder Fi and McArthur Fi while rice hull ash (RHA) in different rates such as Otha RHA without IF, Otha RHA with IF, 2tha RHA with IF, 4t/ha with IF, 6t/ha RHA with IF, and 8t/ha RHA with IF was the subplot factor treatment. On the growth components, McArthur F, had longer vine length and greater number of lateral vines than Thunder Fi However, both varieties had similar number of days to first flowering and number of days to first priming Furthermore, both varieties obtained comparable results in all other yield and yield components which include number of fruits per plant, weight per fruit, yield per plant, yield per plot and computed yield per hectare. All measured variables were enhanced by the application of 8t/ha RHA with inorganic fertilizer. Increasing the rates of RHA up to this rate gave significant advantage to all parameters except for the days to first priming. The number of days to first priming recorded a comparable result when RHA rate was increased from 4t/ha to 8t/ha. For high cucumber yield, Thunder Fi and McArthur Fi should be applied with 8t/ha RHA as basal application added with inorganic fertilizer. | Thesis (Master of Science in Crop Science - Horticulture) 28 cm..

Bayombong: Nueva Vizcaya State University, 2021 .
xvi, 90 leaves : , The present study profiled six selections from the original mixed population of Bingawan Black rice and three selections from Vizcaya Black rice variety. Characterization included selected qualitative traits at both vegetative and reproductive stages, agronomic parameters consisting of growth and yield components, and physical grain attributes following the International Union for the Protection of New Varieties of Plants (UPOV) standard descriptors for rice. The study was conducted for one season covering February to July 2021 at the Research, Extension, and Training Division of the Nueva Vizcaya State University, Bayombong, Nueva Vizcaya. Of the six selections from Bingawan Black rice variety, five appeared distinct based on specific morphological traits observed at vegetative and reproductive stages. At vegetative stage Black Violet and Red Bold were differentiated from the four black selections by basal leaf sheath color, leaf anthocyanin coloration of auricles, and leaf color of ligules Black Small and Black Long appeared distinct from the others by flag leaf attitude and culm angle. At reproductive stage, Black Violet and Red Bold differed in anthocyanin coloration in both lemma apex and nodes. Black Violet, Red Bold, and Black Small were further distinguished from the others by stigma color. In addition, flag leaf attitude differentiated Black Small and Black Long from the rest of the selections. Likewise, Red Small differed with the two selections of Vizcaya Black rice in terms of basal leaf sheath color and leaf color of ligule. Black Long appeared distinct from Red Small and Black Intermediate in terms of culm angle. Growth parameters also differentiated specific selections in both cultivars. Recorded heights and days to heading indicate that selections from both black rice cultivars were semi-dwarf and early maturing. Values for yield components in both Bingawan Black and Vizcaya Black rice selections were relatively close to one another with no evident distinctions among selections. Physical grain attributes further differentiated the selections in grain color, length, and shape. Results of characterization of selections provide conclusive evidences of identification of distinct pure lines from the two black rice cultivars with further purification of these materials by growing them from pure seed lots, there will be potential new pigmented rice cultivars from the two original mixed populations. | Thesis (Master of Science in Crop Science - Agronomy) 28 cm..

Administrative and supervisory practices among elementary school heads in the schools division of Nueva Vizcaya: towards redefining exemplar practices/

By Jimenez, Rosalie L..
Bayombong: Nueva Vizcaya State University, 2021 .
xvi, 183 leaves : , This study determined the personal and school-related profile of the school heads, the level of their administrative and supervisory practices as to the different dimensions. It also aimed to redefine the administrative and supervisory practices of school heads. This study was conducted to 18 school heads and 206 elementary teachers from the Schools Division of Nueva Vizcaya. The data were generated through the use of online survey questionnaire via google form as the main data gathering tool supported by document analysis and interview. The online survey questionnaire has two parts, demographic profile and assessment of the school heads' administrative and supervisory functions. The data were analyzed using both quantitative and qualitative methods. In the quantitative approach, the descriptive evaluative type of research using a survey questionnaire was utilized to provide descriptive data in dealing with the demographic and school-related profile of the respondents as well as the level of practices of elementary school heads in terms of administrative and supervisory functions, differences on the administrative and supervisory practices of school heads when grouped according to profile variable and the significant relationship between the level of school heads practices of administrative and supervisory functions. In the qualitative approach, document analysis was utilized to strengthen or support the administrative and supervisory practices of school heads. The results of the qualitative analysis were supported by an interview with the Public Schools District Supervisors to further strengthen the findings of the study and to develop a better analysis and provide details on the exemplar practices of school heads. The administrative and supervisory functions of elementary school heads were compared by their profile variables. Results of the study revealed that most of the school heads are within the age group 60 years old and below mostly females, school heads by position and master degree holder. Most of the school heads were awarded in the district level and were assigned in central schools with a population of 15 and below teachers and 301 and above pupils with a total school MOOE of 21, 000 and above. The level of practices of elementary school heads in terms of administrative and supervisory functions as to the different dimensions was strongly practiced. Significant differences were observed in the administrative functions of the school heads as to the different dimensions when grouped according to age, sex, position and highest educational attainment while no significant differences occur on the school leadership management and operations and other functions/ special assignment when grouped according to age and sex. Significant differences were also noted on the administrative functions of school heads as to the different dimensions when grouped according to type of school, teacher population, pupil population and total school MOOE. Furthermore, the age group of respondents belonged to 60 years old and below had a significant impact on the execution of plans for a sustainable learning environment. Female school heads are practicing their administrative functions than the male school heads. They engage more in collaboration with parents and community in attaining the DepEd goals inbasic education. In addition, the position of the school heads had no influence on the learning environment and parents' involvement and community partnership for performance. School heads with master's degrees are strongly practicing their administrative functions than the school heads with doctorate degrees. Moreover, the various awards received by school heads either regional, national, and international awards could contribute in the execution of learning environment strategic plans of school heads. The type of school had significant influence on the learning environment, parents' involvement and community partnership for performance school leadership management and operations and other functions/ special assignment. The higher the teacher population of schools, the better execution of learning environment strategic plans. Thus, having more teachers in schools could have a positive influence on school academic functions such as partnerships and community involvement. Likewise, the more the population of the pupils, the more they manifest their practice of administrative functions. In terms of MOOE, the more finances given the more task to be conducted signifying more practice of their administrative functions to improve their learning environment. Schools with higher MOOE has a great impact on the formulation and implementation of school plans. Supervisory practices directly influenced the instructional leadership and human resource management and development in terms of their position and highest educational attainment. Moreover, school heads do not vary in their practice of supervisory functions as to instructional leadership and human resource management and development in terms of their age, sex, and awards received. As to the school-related profile of the school heads, they do not differ in their practice of supervisory functions when grouped according to type of school, teacher population, pupil population and total school MOOE. Significant relationship between the level of practice of school heads in their administrative functions and supervisory functions in all of their respective dimensions was also observed. This indicates that when the school heads strongly practiced their administrative functions, it follows that they manifest a high level of practices in terms of their supervisory functions. Lastly, redefined exemplar practices are derived based on the data gathered through online survey questionnaire supported by document analysis and interview. | Thesis (Master of Education - Educational Administration) 28 cm..

By Sagun, Jessie John B. .
Bayombong: Nueva Vizcaya State University, 2021 .
xi, 99 leaves : , The COVID-19 pandemic had hit science education hard. Because of its rippling effect, schools in the country shifted to distance learning a combination of online classes and printed learning module pursuant to the Inter-Agency Task Force's (IATF) recommendation to suspend face-to-face classes until vaccines are available to the public. Hence, the challenge and responsibility not only lie on the shoulders of the teachers but also on the students and their parents/guardians. As such, this study was conceptualized with a focus on the acceptability of the Chemistry module as perceived by the students as well as the scientific literacy and performance of Grade 9 learners in the Schools Division of Quirino. Specifically, the level of acceptability of the module as evaluated by the students, the level of scientific literacy, and science performance of the students including the interrelationships among the variables. This study was carried out using a survey-questionnaire with three parts, one targeting the determination of the level of acceptability of modules in terms of the learning competency, content, language, social content, assessment, format and technical specifications and intellectual property rights; the level of scientific literacy of the students adopted from McKweon (2017) with the following parts: Value of Science, What I Can Do in Science, and What I Believed about Science, and the level of science performance of the students. These questionnaires were distributed to 84 respondents identified using Simple Random Sampling wherein 50 respondents were chosen from 7 national high schools and 34 from 24 selected integrated schools. In analyzing data, descriptive-correlational method was applied. Results revealed that the seven components of modules, are all observed to be acceptable by the respondents. The module is foremost acceptable in terms of its social content, followed by the intellectual property rights, assessment, format and technical specifications, language, learning competency and least acceptable on content. Moreover, the overall level of scientific literacy of the respondents is satisfactory. They agree in most of the statements regarding the value of science followed by what they can do and lastly on what they believe about science. Meanwhile, on the level of science performance of the respondents, it is very satisfactory. Furthermore, the overall level of acceptability of the Chemistry module as perceived by the students and their level of scientific literacy are highly significantly correlated. Moreover, all of the components of the module and scientific literacy are positively correlated. However, the component of module pertaining to format and technical specification is not significantly correlated with what the students believe about science. On the other hand, no significant relationship existed between the overall level of acceptability of the modules as perceived by the respondents as well as their scientific literacy, and their level of science performance at 0.05 level of significance.

Bayombong: Nueva Vizcaya State University, 2021 .
x, 65 leaves : , The study examined factors that will predict Grade 11 STEM students' academic achievement in Mathematics in the Division of Quirino with the ultimate view of enhancing the learning of Mathematics of STEM students. Two hundred and twenty-eight Grade 11 STEM students were randomly selected from five secondary schools offering STEM strands in Quirino Province. This study focused on descriptive correlational research design. Descriptive statistics such as frequency count was utilized to describe the different selected independent variables. In addition, the data collected were analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis. This study has established that among the selected independent variables, there are five statistically significant predictor variables in Grade 11 STEM students' academic performance in Mathematics. The results showed that the five predictor variables have 77.80% of the total variance observed in achievement accounted for by the independent variables. By implication, significant relationships existed between academic performance in Mathematics and the student's Grade 10 general weighted average and Mathematics final grade, libraries' functionality, teachers' educational attainment and length of service. The relative effects of the predictor variables revealed that teachers' educational attainment to Mathematics achievement had the greatest, followed by libraries" functionality, Grade 10 general weighted average, Grade 10 Mathematics final grade, and lastly by the teachers' length of service. However, the latter gives a negative relationship with the students' academic achievement in Mathematics. Furthermore, the study came upwith a proposed intervention plan to help improve the students' academic performance in Mathematics.

Bayombong: Nueva Vizcaya State University, 2021 .
xi, 66 leaves : , This study aimed to determine the discriminators of the research achievements of the Grade 12 STEM students in Division of Nueva Vizcaya. It also sought to identify the profile of the students, to determine the levels of research interest, research self-efficacy, interpersonal and instructional perception towards research training environment of the students, and to determine the model that discriminates students with high or low Research Achievement. This study employed the descriptive and exploratory designs. The descriptive statistics like frequency, percent, mean and standard deviation were used to describe the profile of the students and the levels of research interest, research self-efficacy. interpersonal and instructional perception towards research training environment of the students. Discriminant analysis was used to determine the significant discriminators of high or low Research Achievement. This study found that Grade 12 STEM students considered themselves interested and moderately efficient towards research activities and research-related tasks. They perceived that the intervention of research training environment was moderately effective in their study of research. Out of nine discriminating variables, the size of school and the Statistics and Probability grade are the discriminators that differentiate the high or low performing of the research achievement of the Grade 12 stem students. Between these two variables that are significant, Statistics and Probability grade is more powerful predictor with standardized canonical coefficient of 0.973 while 0.427 for the size of school. This implies that size of school was also a discriminator but not as powerful as the grade in Statistics and Probability.

xi, 41 leaves : , The study was conducted to determine the lung lesion score of pigs presented at slaughter in Solano Municipal Abattoir In addition, this was conducted to find out the prevalence of pneumonia in slaughter pigs. Random sampling was used to gather the 30 samples from the 84 slaughtered pigs. The scoring used was based on the scheme point used by Ostanello et al (2007) wherein the individual lung lobes were first scored from 0 10 4. The results revealed that respiratory diseases resulting to lung lesions are prevalent in the slaughter pig in the abattoir Majority of the swine lungs exhibited lung lesions with 63.33% of them having lesions. The lung lesion scores of the samples ranged from 0 to 16. Notably. 36.7% of the samples have no lung lesion. The results per lobe revealed that among the seven lobes, right caudal lobe had the highest frequency of pneumonic lobes with 19 (63.3%) lobes out of 30. On the other hand, the left cranial lobe appeared to have the least number of pneumonic lobes with 12 (40%) lobes affected with lesions. The right cranial lobe had 16 (53.3%) lobes with lesion The lesion scores ranged from 0 to 4. Nine (30%) lobes out of 30 lung samples displayed lesions affecting less than 25% of the lobe surface. On the other hand, there is 1 (33%) tight cranial lobe that scored the maximum point of 4 by having lesions affecting more than 75% of the lobe surfaceThe right middle lobe also had 16 (53.3%) lobes out of 30 lung samples with leston The lesion scores ranged from 0 to 4. Eight of them were scored with I for having lesions affecting less than 25% of the lobe surface One lobe was scored with the hughest score of 4 The accessory lobe had 14 (46.6%) lobes out of 30 lung samples with lesion The lesion scores ranged from 0 to 3. Twelve (40.0%) out of 30 lobes had scores of 1 The right caudal lobe had 19 (63.3%) lobes out of 30 lung samples with lesion Thirteen (43.3%) of them were scored with 1. Five lobes were scored with 2 and one lobe was scored with the highest score of 3 The left cranial lobe had scores ranging from 0 to 2 Twelve (40%) left cramal lobes of the 30 lungs had lesions Specifically, 11 (36.7%) of them were scored with 1 while the remaining lobe was scored with 2 The left middle lobe had scores ranging from 0 to 3 There were 17 (56.7%) lobes out of 30 lung samples with lesions.

Bayombong: Nueva Vizcaya State University, 2021 .
xiii, 88 leaves : , The study determined the growth and yield response of pepper to varying concentrations and frequencies of Carrageenan Plant Growth Promoter (CPGP). The evaluation was done under field conditions at Brgy. Quezon, Solano, Nueva Vizcaya from November 20, 2020 to February 21, 2021. The study was set-up in a split-plot randomized complete block design with three replications. The three varying application frequencies were designated as main-plots, and the four concentrations of CPGP, as sub-plots. Peppers applied with 120 ppm and two to three times application of CPGP significantly matured earlier based on number of days to flowering and number of days to first priming. The same treatment combination resulted in significantly taller plants and higher number of lateral shoots. In terms of yield, however, CPGP at 120 ppm applied three times gave significantly higher number and heavier weight of fruits. The concentration of 120 ppm CPGP applied thrice in growing pepper is shown in the study to be the best treatment combination. | Thesis (Master of Science - Crop Science) 28 cm..

Drip irrigation system for enhancing organically- grown soybean (glycine maz l.)/

By Collado, Mary Lou F..
Bayombong: Nueva Vizcaya State University, 2021 .
xii, 49 leaves : , Proper irrigation management is critical to optimize yield while increasing the efficiency of irrigation water. Several studies conducted for a wide range environment have demonstrated that soybean yield increase with irrigation (Gercek et al., 2009). Thus, this study was conducted to enhance the growth and yield of soybean using drip irrigation system and determine the effect of different irrigation management on growth and yield of the crop. The study was conducted under Pangasinan condition for four months. Irrigation was scheduled based on different moisture allowable depletion (MAD) levels set at 20%, 40%, 60% and 80% soil available water. Electrical resistance type sensor was used in determining the irrigation timing and refill point of the study. The result of the treatments with different MAD levels was also compared with the result obtained from the farmer's practice and rainfed treatments. In order to conserve water, the moisture allowed depletion (MAD) levels were set at 80% during the germination stage and the vegetative stage. While at reproductive stage was 20% MAD to sustain growth and good performance of the plant. The total water requirement in each phenological stages of the soybean were 1.5 cm for germination stage, 5.3 cm for vegetative stage and 24.4 cm for reproductive stage to pod fill to harvest. Total yield of soybean ranged from 1222 kg/ha (Treatment 6) to 1958 kg/ha (Treatment 1). Yield of soybean affected by different treatment using drip irrigation system resulted significantly greater yield of 1,625-1,958 kg/ha than farmer's practice and rainfed yield which is 1,458 kg/ha and 1,222 kg/ha.

Modeling the hydrolgic response to land use and land cover change of the magat Watershed/

By Bartolome, Catherine A. .
Bayombong: Nueva Vizcaya State University, 2021 .
xiii, 82 leaves : , Watershed plays a very important role in the hydrologic balance. One of the factors accountable in altering the hydrologic response of watershed is the land use and land cover (LULC) change affecting, particularly, the water quantity. The extent of these changes on catchment hydrology will be needed for the planning and implementation of various water resources projects. The main objective of this study was to assess the hydrologic responses to LULC change of the Magat Watershed located in the northern part of the Philippines. In particular, the study evaluates the LULC change for the period 2003 and 2015 and the effect these changes have had on water quantity, specifically, streamflow in the watershed using the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT). The SWAT model simulation was performed for a period of 23 years. Calibration and validation were performed through comparison of the simulated and observed streamflow from the gauging stations, the Magat and Bagabag stations. The outputs were calibrated for the period 1998 to 2007 and validated for the period 2008 to 2017 for the Magat station. Due to insufficient streamflow data for the Bagaheg station, the calibration and validation was deme for the period 2001 so 2007 and 2008 to 2013, respectively Sensitivity analysis was also performed to identify the most sensitive parameters out of the 12 parameters selected and so determine the best fitted values for each of the parameters. It was found out that the baseflow alpha factor (ALPHA BF) was the most sensitive parameter that could possibly affect the SWAT model output. The calibration and validation processes yielded the values 0.77, 59.98% and 0.69 for the Pearson Coefficient (r), Coefficient of Determination (r) and Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency (NSE), respectively. These values imply that the performance rating of the model, generally, is good. The LULC change analysis revealed that range-grasses (RNGE) and residential built-up (URBN) have the greatest increase with a rate of change of 414.50% and 340.70%, respectively. Additionally, the LULC change detection analysis performed using the ArcGIS depicted that the range-brush/shrubs (RNGB) has contributed to the increase of forest-mixed (FRST) and RNGE and for the expansion in URBN and water (WATR), the agricultural land-generic (AGRL) has the greatest contribution. In the evaluation on hydrologic response of streamflow due to LULC changes, the output of simulation resulted to a minimal variability for the three components that contribute to streamflow. Surface runoff and lateral flow has a minimal increase 0.22% and 3.41%, respectively, whereas, groundwater has a decrease of 11.53%. Though there was an increase in URBN, there was also an increase in FRST and RNGE, thus, this change resulted to a minimal increase in surface runoff, since the effect in the expansion in URBN compensated the increase in RNGE. As surface runoff and groundwater flow are the major components contributing to streamflow, with FRST and RNGB, the infiltration increases and further lead to decreased surface runoff and increase of groundwater flow. On the other hand, URBN had the strongest contribution in surface runoff due to reduced infiltration rates on the impervious surface. The study also evaluated the hydrologic response on streamflow using different LULC scenarios. From the simulation results of the three scenarios, it was depicted that the greatest effect was observed in scenario 3 where there was a remarkable increase in surface runoff and a notable decrease in lateral flow and groundwater flow. Generally, from the results of this study, it is good to conclude that the calibrated model can accurately simulate and could be effectively used to simulate streamflow in the Magat watershed and a confirmation that the calibrated model can be used to examine the responses of hydrological processes to LULC change in watershed. Further, the output of this study can be used as a decision support tool for policy makers and water resources planners for a sustainable watershed management.

Bayombong: Nueva Vizcaya State University, 2021 .
xv, 129 leaves : , Technological advancements encourage the faculty members to develop different teaching strategies especially during the global pandemic caused by the novel coronavirus or COVID-19. As a guide, CHED issued Memorandum No. 04 Series of 2020 which contains the general recommendations on the flexible learning strategies depending on the levels of technology and availability of devices of the stakeholders. Faculty members were challenged to continue teaching beyond the traditional mode of learning during the pandemic. Therefore, the study focused on the level of management functions and technology preparedness of the faculty members with permanent employment status under business programs of HEIs in Nueva Vizcaya. The concept of the study was drawn from the theories of Planning, Organizing, Leading and Controlling (POLC) and technology preparedness in terms of technology access, technology skills and literacy, and attitude in technology. The respondents' profile, level of implementation of management functions and level of technology preparedness were determined through descriptive statistics such as percentage, standard deviation, and frequency count. The result of the study showed that faculty members of business programs have high level of implementation of management and technology preparedness. Moreover, significant relationships between the respondents' profile and management strategies, respondents' profile and technology preparedness, and management strategies and technology preparedness of the faculty members were determined using the statistical tools like Pearsons Product Moment Correlation Coefficient (Pearson's r), Correlation Ratio (E2), and Point Biserial Correlation Coefficient depending on the type of data being tested. The study revealed that the profile of the faculty members has no relationship on their level of implementation of management strategies. On the other hand, younger faculty members have higher technology access and technology skills and literacy. Furthermore, result showed that profile were not significant factors on their level of attitude in technology. More results showed that when the level of implementation of management strategies is high, the result is also high in terms of technology preparedness of the faculty members. Based on the results of the study, the researcher recommended an enhanced program for better implementation of flexible learning in HEIs.

Bayombong: Nueva Vizcaya State University, 2021 .
xiv, 200 leaves : , Financial literacy is one of the big predicaments facing among government employees, most especially the teachers. Based on the Salary Standardization Law 1, public teachers have better compensation than any other government employees, considering their basic salary and all of the benefits. However, teachers were financially challenged in understanding and managing their own finances. The concept of the study was drawn from the theories of Maslow's Hierarchy of needs, areas of personal finance, financial literacy identifiers and core competencies, top-down processing theory and behavioral finance. The respondents profile, level of financial literacy, financial perspectives and financial practices were determined through descriptive statistics such as percentage, standard deviation, mean and frequency count. The result of the study showed that public secondary teachers had high level of financial literacy and financial perspectives, but this is in contrast with the level of the financial practices which yielded a low result. Moreover, significant relationships between the respondents' profile and level of financial literacy, financial perspectives and financial practices; level of financial literacy and financial perspectives and financial practices; and financial perspectives and financial practices of the public secondary teachers were determined using the statistical tools like Pearson's Product Moment Correlation Coefficient (Pearson's r), Correlation Ratio (E2), and Point Biserial Correlation Coefficient depending on the type of data being tested. The study revealed that all of the above relationships were significant.

Bayombong: Nueva Vizcaya State University, 2021 .
xiv, 66 leaves : , Antimicrobials are a precious resource in the veterinary sector however, there has been limited data and published articles on its usage in animals in the country Overuse of antimicrobials in the food-animal production sector is considered a factor in the rise of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in animal pathogens The study determined the antimicrobial usage in swine farms in Nueva Vizcaya through the conduct of a semi-structured survey in 84 commercial and backyard farms to assess their usage and practices related to antimicrobials. Most of the respondents are male (67.9%) with majority of them being the head of the family (96.6%), were between 40-60 years old (59.5%), has reached college level (56%) and has relevant training in pig husbandry (51 2%). Majority of the respondents are into backyard operation at 83 3% Results showed that most (98 8%) of the respondents regardless of the type of farm operation used antimicrobials in their pigs for treatment, prevention and growth promotion. All commercial farms are knowledgeable of the antibiotic used in their animals while only 46.4% of the backyard farms are aware of it The commonly used classes of antimicrobials in backyard and commercial farms are tetracyclines (50.6%), penicillin’s (44.6%), aminoglycosides (31.3%) and fluoroquinolones (30.1%) with the following types of antimicrobials identified as commonly used including oxytetracycline, enrofloxacin, amoxicillin, doxycycline, penicillin, gentamicin, tiamulin, streptomycin, trimethoprim-sulfa combinations and lincomycin. On practices of farms on antimicrobial usage, most of them accessed antimicrobials over the counter (91.7%), with 929% of the backyard farms acquiring their antibiotic this way though only 40.5% have prescription from veterinarians A high proportion of the backyard farmers (98.9%) seek instructions on antimicrobial usage from animal technician while in most commercial farms (92.9%) get instructions on usage from veterinarian. Majority of them (70.2%) said that they always acquire prescription or instruction when buying antibiotics. In the farms surveyed, 82 1% confirmed that there are other substances in the farms that contain antibiotics. A high percentage (88 1%) of them give antibiotics to all pigs in pen even if only one pig is sick, with 100% of the backyard farms doing this practice while only 28 6% of commercial farms practice it Some farmers tend to self-combine antimicrobials (11.9%) and give dose that were low or high than recommended (26.2%) A high proportion of the respondents (96.4%) stops giving antibiotics when the animal gets better. Most of them (91 7%) however, observed withdrawal period and were aware of negative consequences of giving antimicrobials (94%), but very few (23%) were aware of what antimicrobial resistance is. This study revealed that there is widespread usage of antimicrobials in swine farms in Nueva Vizcaya Thus, there is a need to conduct regular surveillance on antimicrobial usage to ensure rational use, reduce AMR development and preserve their efficacy particularly those that are also used medically. | Thesis (Doctor of Veterinary Medicine) 28 cm..

xiii, 57 leaves : , This study was conducted to evaluate different types of fertilizer management and water irrigation levels on Arabica coffee seedlings in CAR so that coffee seedlings will be distributed to farmers in a span of one and half year. Data gathering was done during a four-month period after the date of transplanting for plant height and girth under Baguio City conditions. Fertilizer management (no fertilizer applied, wood vinegar (bamboo), phosphorus and lime, and nitrogen) and water management (pot capacity, 60 ml-farmer's practices, 25%, 50%, and 75% of pot capacity) were factorially combined and laid out in split plot experiment arranged in the randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications. Results showed that phosphorus and lime rates at a rate of 2.31 g lime and 750 mg P/pot and 50% of pot capacity (30 ml) water significantly (p ≤0.05) increased plant height and stem girth of the potted coffee seedlings. The results further indicated significant reduction in the nursery period of coffee seedlings from two (2) years to one (1) year with an average height of 16.23 cm, close to the required and recommended height of 20-30cmready for distribution to the farmers, Significant effects in the interaction between fertilizer and irrigation factors was observed. On-farm evaluation of the root length to check the nutrient response during the nursery period and irrigation frequency using a soil moisture tester for the purpose of drip irrigation studies are highly recommended. | Thesis (Master of Science in Agricultural Engineering - Soil and Water Management) 28 cm..

Development of a forecast model on carbon sequestration of underutilized trees in quirino forest landscape project (qfluscarbon)/

By Orpiano, Gerlyn B..
Bayombong: Nueva Vizcaya State University, 2021 .
xiv, 88 leaves : , Forests are generally known to have high carbon sequestration rates. Sustaining forest carbon sinks is a priority in climate change as well as forest management strategy. However, several issues confront the role of Philippine forests in climate change mitigation: the loss of old-growth cover, unsustainable forest land use practices, and lack of site-specific modeling. These are the realities in the Quirino Forest Landscape, a semi-contiguous collection of secondary forests in 4 municipalities of Quirino Province. This study was undertaken to develop a forecast model for carbon in aboveground of underutilized trees in the Quirino Forest Landscape Project (QFLP) located in the Quirino Province. The study used forecasting variables such as DBH, abundance, density, and other related factors such as accumulation rate of AGB, change in forest cover, and time. Data were collected through field inventory, NAMRIA Land Cover Databases, and secondary sources. Multiple linear regression, principal components analysis, and biodiversity indices have been used in the analysis of data collected from different sampling areas and in the development of a forecast model. The results of the study showed the strong forecasting power of the developed model, which was precise enough to provide future values for the accumulated carbon in QFLP over the next 30 years. The 30-year forecast data showed that the average carbon sequestration in AGB of underutilized species of all forested areas in QFLP from 2020 to 2050 is QFLUSCarbon 228.88 G1C (SD-3.70). The high proportion of underutilized trees among those economically more important and more popular species of trees has also been observed in QFLP, indicating the dependence of its carbon sequestration on these species. The results of the analysis of forest cover change data illustrated the declining forest cover in the QFLP over the last several years, suggesting the need for policy-based management. | Thesis (Master of Science in Agricultural Engineering - Soil and Water Management) 28 cm..

Bayombong: Nueva Vizcaya State University, 2021 .
xii, 165 pages : , The study focused on the establishment of an enhanced learning material in Physics based on the level of performance of the respondents before and after the implementation of the (Physics Education Technology) PhET simulations measured on the different learning competencies. Specifically, it identified the demographic profile of the respondents, levels of performance based on pretest and posttest, and the significant difference on levels of performance according to profile variables. As a result, the researcher crafted an enhanced learning material aimed at improving the level of performance of the respondents. Descriptive-inferential design on a single group pre-test-post-test design was implemented where 84 randomly selected Grade 8 students were given pretests and posttests. Their mean scores were used as measure of their level of performance, corresponding to the descriptive statistics utilized. Moreover, the normalized gain scores were also computed to establish a description for the level of increase in the performance of the students based on module topics. The analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was employed where the pretest means scores of the students per module served as the covariates for the dependent variables which were the posttest can store. ANCOVA was used to establish the significant differences in the level of performance the respondents before and after the implementation of the PhET simulation activities. Results showed that students mostly spend one to five hours on the internet or gadgets in a They had low level of performance before and after PhET simulations but normalized gain scores were observed ranging from low to moderate levels. Moreover, no significant difference in the level of performance of the students were recorded when grouped according to profile variables.

Corn nutrition to mitigate fall armyworm (spodoptera frugiperda j. e. smith) infestation and yield loss/

By Cena, Claudette Faye R..
Bayombong: Nueva Vizcaya State University, 2021 .
xviii, 95 leaves : , The study evaluated the effectiveness of applying pyroligneous acid (PA) and carrageenan plant growth promoter (CPGP) in reducing FAW infestation and yield loss in com. The experiment was laid out in a split plot arranged in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications. The main plot treatments corresponded to the corn variety (IES Glut No. 4 and IES CN 9) while the sub-plot treatments corresponded to applied PA and CPGP with inorganic fertilizer (inorganic fertilizer alone, IF; PA at 200x dilution IF, PA at 300x dilution + IF; 300 ppm CPGP, 600 ppm CPGP; and PA at 250x dilution + 450 ppm CPGP + IF. IES Glut No. 4 and IES CN 9 were similar in all measured growth and yield variables except on maturity based on days to tasseling. IES Glut No. 4 matured at 47 days after seedling emergence that was four days earlier than IES CN 9. All measured plant growth and yield variables were significantly affected by applied PA and CPGP except the number of ears produced per plot which seemed to be a stable character of the corn plants. Applied IF alone consistently gave the lowest values of the measured variables. Greater FAW incidence was observed during the vegetative stage of corn plants particularly during Carly whorl and late whorl stage. The same number of plants in both varieties were infested with FAW but the application of PA and CPGP, in general resulted to a significant decrease in percent infestation. Applied PA at 250x dilution + 450 ppm CPGP IF was the most effective corn nutrition among the employed treatments in terms of enhancing growth and yield of corn as well as mitigating FAW incidence and FAW infestation. | Thesis (Master of Science in Crop Science - Agronomy) 28 cm..

x, 75 leaves : , This study identified Acute Respiratory Infections (ARI) hotspots and cold spots in Nueva Vizcaya and consequently investigated the environmental aspects of the identified ARI hotspots and cold spots. This study made use of a descriptive exploratory design. Data regarding ARI cases were collected from the different Municipal Health Offices in Nueva Vizcaya. Descriptive statistics such as frequency count was used to determine the number of ARI cases of each municipality in the province. Furthermore, frequency count was also used in analyzing the environmental aspects of ARI hotspots and cold spots. Moran's 1 and Getis Ord-Gi from GIS were used to analyze and to identify cluster pattern, hotspots and cold spots. It was discovered that Aritao had the most recorded cases while Dupax del Sur had the least occurrence of ARI. In addition, spatial clustered patterns appeared when ARI cases were categorized according to age group, i.e., 0 to 11 months old, 1 to 5 years old, and above 5 years old. Moreover, hotspot analysis revealed that residents of the municipalities of Ambaguio, Alfonso Castañeda, Kayapa, Bambang, Bagabag. Aritao, and Santa Fe were prone to acute respiratory illnesses, while the resident of the municipalities of Kasibu, Bayombong, Dupax del Sur and Dupax del Norte had low risk of acquiring such diseases.

Bayombong: Nueva Vizcaya State University, 2021 .
xi, 92 leaves : , Science education is essential in understanding the environment. With the COVID-19 pandemic around the corner, teaching science has been a challenge. Incorporating virtual simulation activities is a must for students to be able to understand science without having actual laboratory set-up to explore. This study focused on enhancing the science process skills and performance of students through virtual simulation activities. Specifically, it determined the levels of science process skills and science performance of the students based on their pretest and posttest mean scores, and the difference in their gained scores as well as the relationship between the variables. In this study, two questionnaires were handed to 48 randomly chosen senior high school students enrolled in Chemistry 2. The questionnaires underwent both validity and reliability tests. Moreover, this study employed the descriptive-correlation design on a single-group pretest-posttest design. Pretests and posttests were administered to the same group of respondents both designed to measure their science process skills and science performance after applying the virtual simulation activities. In the analysis, descriptive statistics was used to determine the mean scores of the students in the pretest and posttest establishing their levels of science process skills and science performance when grouped according to their profile variables. Meanwhile, paired sample t-test was used to determine significant differences in the levels of science process skills and science performance of the learners based on their pretest and posttest mean scores. Moreover, normalized gain analysis to determine the effect of virtual simulation activities on the science process and performance of the learners. Finally, Pearson-r correlation coefficient was determined to establish significant relationship between science process skills and science performance of the respondents. Results showed that the respondents have an average level of both science process skills and science performance. Significant differences in their mean scores were observed for both variables. Furthermore, the normalized gain scores of the students fall under the moderate category implying a moderate effect of the virtual simulation activities on the science process skills and performance of the students. In addition, significant positive correlations were observed between the interpreting component under science process skills and the understanding, evaluating, and creating components of science performance of the students. Hence, it is recommended that virtual simulation activities be strategically incorporated in modules used in the blended learning modality.

It also determined the level of teaching strategies of the respondents in terms of: direct instruction/lecture method, inquiry method, problem solving method, inductive method, project method, cooperative learning, peer tutoring/peer teaching, blended learning, reflective learning, and constructivist approach; level of classroom management approaches adopted by the respondents in terms of assertive approach, business-academic approach, behavioral modification approach, group managerial approach, acceptance approach, success approach, alternative approaches /contingency approaches, general preventive measures, moderate preventive measures and humanistic preventive measures. Further, it determines the significant difference on the level of teaching strategies and classroom management approaches when grouped according to the demographic profile of the respondents, determine the significant relationship between the level of teaching strategies and classroom approaches of the respondents. The study employed the descriptive-inferential method. A total of 188 respondents were used as respondents of the study through a purposive sampling. A questionnaire which was validated by experts was used to gather the needed information. Data were statistically analyzed using frequency counts, percentage, mean, and correlation procedure to treat the data. To test the significant correlations, Pearson product moment correlation was used. The t-test and ANOVA were used for measures of differences between and among treatment means, test of relationships, and test of causes and effects if any. The different stated teaching strategies and classroom management approaches were always practiced by the teachers. The age, number of years in teaching and grade level of the respondents have an influence in electing teaching strategies and classroom management approaches. The teachers teaching strategies who used inquiry method, problem solving method, inductive method, cooperative learning, reflective learning, peer tutoring/peer teaching and constructivist approach have a great influence in the teacher classroom management approaches. Direct instruction/lecture method directly influence the behavioral modification approach, group managerial approach and acceptance approach used by the teachers. Blended learning directly influences classroom management approaches who used behavioral modification approach, approaches/contingency approaches and general preventive measures.

xii, 107 leaves : , This study determined the level of self-efficacy, burnout, and attitudes towards change of the high school science teachers in the Schools Division of Quirino, consequently showing the interrelatedness of these three variables and the effect of teachers' characteristics to each of them. Random sampling was used in selecting the 90 respondents from the 14 secondary schools and 8 integrated schools in the Schools Division of Quirino. This study used descriptive correlation research design. Particularly, frequency count was used to describe the characteristics of the respondents, t-test and ANOVA were used to determine the effect of the teachers' characteristics to their level of self-efficacy, burnout, and attitude towards change, and correlation procedures were used to examine the interrelationships between and among the three variables. The results revealed that the respondents are "quite certain" in practicing the related activities in self-efficacy, they experienced "a few times a month or less the emotions/feelings related to burnout, and they "moderately agreed" on the statements related to attitude towards change. The number of dependents significantly affects the teachers' level of self-efficacy, none of the characteristics significantly affects the level of burnout, and the teachers' gender and civil status significantly affect their level of attitude towards change. Finally, there is a significant correlation between burnout and self-efficacy and so with self-efficacy and attitude towards change.

Descriptive statistics such as frequency count was utilized to determine the number of earthquake occurrences in each municipality of the province. Furthermore, frequency count was also used in describing the awareness and preparedness of the residents in the hotspot areas. Analysis of the data for identifying the hotspot areas, the Moran's I and Getis Ord-Gi from GIS were used. Results showed that the highest frequency count in earthquake occurrences are in the municipality of Kayapa. Meanwhile, no recorded earthquake occurrences based on epicenter was observed in the municipality of Villaverde. In addition, spatial clustered patterns existed and were not attributed to random chance at the north-westward part of the province. Hotspot areas were identified in the municipalities of Ambaguio, Bayombong. Bambang, and Kayapa. There is 99% confidence that these earthquake occurrences were identified at these municipalities. Furthermore, survey was conducted on the hotspot areas wherein 42% assumed that earthquake is associated with climate change and 76% thought it was due to volcanic eruption. Meanwhile, only 54% of the respondents knew the emergency/hotline numbers of the local fire, police, and hospital department and also the barangay staff. In addition, 49% of them had their furniture mounted to the wall or floor. The study showed that the residents in the hotspot areas are very aware and very prepared when it comes to earthquake. Moreover, a crafted earthquake mitigation plan for Nueva Vizcaya is recommended for implementation. It is coined as "Project EM - Educating the community & Materials for Awareness and Preparedness for Earthquake". This study is aimed at strengthening earthquake prevention, mitigation and preparedness which are the key strategies to address the vulnerability of the communities.

xv, leaves : , A total of twelve (12) or 44% of the total metallic and non-metallic mineral reserves of the region are found in Nueva Vizcaya. The province primary sector includes mining and quarrying. In Didipio, Kasibu, known for its rich gold and copper was found to be present in sediments and waters. The study was conducted at Buliwao, Quezon, Nueva Vizcaya. Generally, the objective of the study was to determine the copper uptake efficiency of Brassica spp. planted in biochar amended soil. Specifically, the study aimed to (1) evaluate the physical and chemical characteristics of the soils used in the study; (2) determine the Cu uptake efficiency of B. juncea and B. rapa planted in biochar amended soils collected from the two tributaries of Didipio river; and (3) characterize the soils for the suitability of the areas for agricultural crops. The experiment was laid out in a two-way factorial experiment in Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with three replications. Two B. spp. and three levels of biochar (carbonized rice hull) as soil amendment were used. The treatments evaluated were as follows: Factor A (B. spp.): A1 Mustard and A2 Pechay. Factor B (Levels of Biochar): B, 0.4 kg ha¹ soil + 0.06 kg ha¹ biochar; B2: 0.34 kg ha¹ soil + 0.1 kg ha¹; and B3 -0.3 kg ha¹ soil + 0.1 kg ha¹ biochar. Comparison of means of residual and total loss of Cu in the soil showed that treatments started to differ significantly 30 days after biochar application. Residual Cu in the soil ranged from 0.48 ppm4.87 ppm. The residual Cu in the soil decreases as the treatment time increases. The total Cu loss ranged from 0.77 ppm to 5.16 ppm which the Cu loss in the soil increases as the treatment time increases. For the suitability of crops, common bean was found to be moderately suitable and sweet potato and upland and lowland rice were marginally suitable in the production areas near Dinauyan stream. Meanwhile, common bean and sweet potato were found to be moderately suitable, upland rice is moderately suitable and lowland rice was found to be marginally suitable in the production areas near Dupit stream. | Thesis (Master of Science in Crop Science - Horticulture) 28 cm..

Bayombong: Nueva Vizcaya State University, 2021 .
xvi, 59 leaves : , The study was conducted to determine and characterize the macroscopic lesions present in pneumonic lungs of slaughtered pigs in San Mateo Municipal Slaughterhouse. Specifically, this was conducted to characterize and describe the gross morphology (color, consistency, distribution of lesion, exudation, pleurisy and adhesion) and to determine the prevalence of pneumonia based only on the gross morphological lesions. Data that were gathered from the mentioned parameters served as the basis in the etiologic diagnosis of pneumonia. The Systematic Random Sampling was used in the selection of pig lungs that was inspected and examined. The result of this study showed that bronchial and interstitial pneumonia were the two most common classification that greatly affects those of the swine slaughtered. It also showed that the occurrence of pneumonia has a strong relationship with the macroscopic changes on the structure of the lungs especially in color (0.016), presence of Efferent exudate (<0.001), distribution of lesions (< 0.001) and a low relation in the changes of lung consistency (0.051). The lesions greatly influenced the occurrence of infection, and data from this study revealed that 83.3% (25) from the total lungs mined were positive with pneumonia. Majority of the lungs were affected with bronchial pneumonia which often caused by bacterial infection such as Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae, Haemophilus parasuis, Actinobacillus pleuropneumonia, etc. and interstitial pneumonia mainly caused by respiratory viruses such as Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory (PRRS) virus and/or Porcine circovirus. In conclusion, swine pneumonia is highly prevalent in the slaughtered pigs at San Mateo Municipal Slaughterhouse (AA) implying the chances of not having a strict management practice among backyard raisers in reducing the development of different risk factors thus, resulting to the development of respiratory disease. | Thesis (Doctor of Veterinary Medicine) 28 cm..

Bayombong: Nueva Vizcaya State University, 2021 .
xv, 97 leaves : , The study aims to assess the surface water resources potential of an ungauged catchment which is located at Barangay Nagsabaran, Diadi, Nueva Vizcaya. For this purpose, an interview was conducted to selected respondents, water quality was tested in the area, streamflow and water discharge was collected and surface runoff modelling was done with the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) Model. It was identified through survey that the major source of water of the barangay comes from unprotected spring (59.8%) and stream, river (42.3%) that is utilized by the residents for their household (98.9%), business (22.4%), livestock (13.2%), farming (11.7%) and aquaculture (0.7%) activities. The water quality did not exceed the water quality guidelines promulgated by DENR except for color whose value ranges from 39 Color Unit to 63 Color Unit compared to 5 Color Unit during the period covered. This exceedance is associated with naturally dissolved organic matter. Water discharge from the waterpipes connected to Nagsabaran waterfalls is also has an average discharge of 0.08 Lps (0.00008 cu m/s) while, thestreamflow from the Nagsabaran waterfalls to the Oriwong creek was 0.069 cu m/s. The SWAT model extracted 14 subbasins with 177 Hydrologic Response Units (HRU's). There are eight parameters used in this study for which Soil Available Water Capacity (SOL AWC) is the most sensitive with p-value of 0.06 and 1-stat of -1.90. SWAT simulation have been done for the period 1997-2013. Calibration and simulation were done for the streamflow and the performance of the model is evaluated using two methods: the coefficient of determination (r²) and the Nash-Sutcliffe Simulation Efficiency (NSE) with an overall value of 0.5066 and -0.72, respectively. The, effective allocation of water resources requires knowledge of the area and sufficient data for use of watershed models to simulate the flow of water and the transport of sediments and other associated water quality constituents.

xiii, 113 leaves : , This study analyzed the factors that influenced the performance of the NBI-CAVRO personnel to identify areas for further improvement and to determine relevant corrective management interventions to address areas of weakness. Specifically, it described the sociodemographic profiles of the NBI-CAVRO personnel; determined the levels of satisfaction of the NBI-CAVRO personnel in terms of the motivator and hygiene factors based on Herzberg's Two-Factor theory, tested the relationship between demographic profile variables, motivator factors, and hygiene factors to the performance of NBI-CAVRO personnel; and recommended interventions to enhance the personnel performance of the NBI-CAVRO. A survey questionnaire was developed and distributed to the NBI-CAVRO personnel involved in the criminal records clearance services and investigation services. The results showed that the satisfaction levels of the NBI-CAVRO personnel in terms of motivator factors (achievement, recognition/promotion, the work itself, responsibility, professional growth) and hygiene factors (organization policies, supervision, work conditions, relationship with boss, relationship with peers, relationship with citizens, benefits, salary, job security, personal life and work balance) were very high. The results also showed that younger personnel as well as respondents who had spent lesser years in the Bureau, or those who were contractual or had casual employment status, contributed substantially to the overall performance of the NBI in Region 02, and that the performance of the NBI-CAVRO personnel in the records clearance services and criminal investigation services would be high when the different hygiene factors were satisfactorily met. Hence, the satisfactory implementation of the hygiene factors would boost the overall performance of NBI personnel in Region 02regardless of the unit they were serving. Furthermore, the persistence, determination, and dedication of the younger personnel and those who were new and still holding contractual or casual employment status should be maintained but should be given a program for permanent status to encourage and further enhance the overall performance of the Bureau.

xi, 28 leaves : , The experiment was conducted to evaluate the antifertility effect of Andrographis paniculata aqueous leaf extract in rabbits The parameters involved in the experiment were the pregnancy test results at day 14 post costum, and days 5 and 10 after discontinuation of treatment Eighteen female rabbits were used in the study, which composed of three treatments with two replicates each and three animals per replicate It was randomly distributed following the Complete Randomized Design (CRD) The treatments used in the experiment were as follows Treatment 1- positive control (Ethinyl estradiol plus Cyproterone acetate), Treatment 2- negative control (distilled water), and Treatment 3-Andrographis paniculata aqueous leaf extract. The eighteen female rabbits were treated for 15 days and were allowed to be mated to male rabbits with proven fertility After fourteen days post coitum, the rabbits were examined if they conceived or not. Female rabbits under treatment 3 were again mated to the same male rabbits 5 and 10 days after discontinuation of the treatment. They were assessed again after 14 days post coitum. Results showed that Andrographis paniculata aqueous leaf extract exhibited antifertility effect comparable with Ethinyl estradiol plus Cyproterone acetate. All the female rabbits in both treatment 1 (Ethinyl estradiol plus Cyproterone acetate) and 3 (1000 mg/kg Andrographis paniculata aqueous leaf extract) did not conceived. For the duration of antifertility effect of Andrographis paniculata aqueous leaf extract in female rabbits, it was totally reversed 10 days after the discontinuation of the treatment wherein all the three rabbits conceived after pairing off. On the other hand, I out of 3 female rabbits only got pregnant when mated 5 days after the discontinuation of the treatment. It was concluded that Andrographis paniculata aqueous leaf extract can be used as alternative and cheaper way for animal population control. | Thesis (Doctor of Veterinary Medicine) 28 cm..
