2. PROPONENT: The undersigned and Pupils under Care for Non-Readers Program (CNR)
of Norala Central Elementary School
3. PROJECT SITE: Gulayan sa Paaralan of Norala Central Elementary School
4. NUMBER OF BENEFICIARIES: Pupils under Care for Non- Reader (CNR) Program
5. TOTAL PROJECT COST: ₽3,000.00

II. RATIONALE:

Eggplant, Solanum melongena L. (also known as brinjal and aubergine) is one of the most important,
inexpensive and popular vegetable crops grown and consumed in Asia. Eggplants grow into tall, angular plants, so
they should be spaced 24 to 36 inches apart. Improve planting holes by mixing in 2 inches of compost to help hold
moisture and fertilizer in the soil. In the Philippines, eggplant production accounts for more than 30.0% of the
total volume of production of the most important vegetables in the country.

The proponents initiate the project to address and support the needs of the slow and non-readers
under the CNR Program. The proceeds of this project will be used for their feeding and to purchase reading
and instructional materials for effective learning.

This project shall be made whole year round in order to sustain the needs of the pupils under CNR
Program. It is somehow lessen the burden of the parents in terms of financial contribution.

III. PROJECT OBJECTIVES:

GENERAL OBJECTIVES:
1. To sustain the implementation of the vegetable production program in school to address
malnutrition and promote organic vegetable production and consumption.

2. To promote food security in schools and communities, through self-help food production
activities and values among learners and appreciation of agriculture as a life support
system.

SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES:

1. To establish and maintain gardens as a ready food basket/source of vegetables in sustaining

feeding and reading materials.

2. To generate additional income and sustain the demand of eggplant and other vegetables in
the community.

3. To showcase small-scale food production models and inculcate among the learners the
values of gardening, good health and nutrition, love of labor and caring for environment.
IV. PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

Description

The proposed project is, Solanum melongena, locally known as “talong”( eggplant) . It is a tropical,
herbaceous, perennial plant, closely related to tomato, in the family Solanaceae which is grown for its edible
fruit. The plants has a branching stem and simple, long, flat and coarsely lobed leaves which are green in color
and are arranged alternately on the branches. The leaves can measure 10 to 20 cm (4–8 in) long and 5 to 10
cm (2–4 in) broad. The plant produces purple flowers which are 3–5 cm (1.2–2.0 in) in diameter. The fruit is a
large, fleshy ovoid berry which can reach 40 cm (15.7 in) in length, with glossy smooth skin and numerous
small seeds. The color of the fruit is variable and can be white, green, yellow, purple or black.

Eggplants can reach up to 1.5 m (4.9 ft) in height and although they are perennial plants, they are most
commonly grown as annuals. Eggplant may also be referred to as aubergine or guinea squash and originates
from the Indian subcontinent.

Use

Eggplant is usually cooked before consumption and is eaten as a vegetable.

Propagation:

In terms of propagation, eggplants are warm-season crops which require a long growing season. They
grow best in regions where the daytime temperature is between 26 and 32°C (80–90°F) and night time
temperatures around 21°C (70°F). In addition, eggplant is a sun loving plant and should be positioned in an
area that receives full sunlight. Plants will perform best when planted in a fertile soil with a pH between 6.3
and 6.8.

Sowing seeds

In cold areas and regions with a short growing season it is necessary to start eggplant indoors or in a
glasshouse. In addition, eggplant will often perform much better in colder areas if planted in containers or
grown under row covers as this helps to keep the soil warm. Seeds should be sown indoors 6 to 8 weeks
before the last frost date. Sow seeds thickly in seed trays containing good quality sterile seed starting mix to a
depth of 6 mm (0.25 in). Keep the trays moist and provide bottom heat by placing on a heat mat or in a warm
area of the house. Seedling should be potted into larger pots when they have two sets of true leaves.

Transplanting

Eggplant seedlings can be transplanted after hardening-off and when all danger of frost has passed in
your area. Seedlings should be spaced 45–60 cm (18–24 in) apart, depending on variety, allowing a further 60–
90 cm (24–36 in) between rows.

General care and maintenance

Eggplant may benefit from the addition of mulch to conserve soil moisture and maintain a higher soil
temperature. Row covers will help to increase the temperature around the plants in cooler climates and
during cool spells in otherwise warm areas. The row covers should be removed to allow pollinators to access
the plants during flowering. Eggplant should be provided with a steady water supply for optimum
development of fruit and the soil around the plants should not be allowed to dry out but should also not be
wet. Plants can be laden with numerous fruit and the use of stakes and supports can help to support the
plants before harvest.

Harvesting

Time from planting to harvest is 100 to 150 days from seed and 70 to 85 days from transplants.
Harvest eggplant young before the flesh becomes pithy. They are ready for harvest when the fruit is glossy,
firm, and full-colored. Eggplants with no seeds are immature. Fruits with hard, dark seeds are overripe.
 Eggplants that are under or overripe will be bitter tasting. Cut eggplants from the stem with a pruning
shear or sharp knife but leave a short stub of stem attached to the fruit.
