520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc The increasing cost and environmental impact of chemical fertilizers have called for the exploration of sustainable alternatives for crop production. This study used a randomized block design (RBD) with three treatments and three replications to experimentally ascertain the effects of Mosquito Fern Fermented Plant Juice (FPJ) on the growth performance of bell pepper. The Mosquito Fern FPJ was used as an alternative organic fertilizer since it is abundant, cost-effective, and has no negative effects on the environment.<br/><br/>The problem examined here was the growth performance in terms of height, number of branches, number of flowers, number of fruits and yield of bell pepper plants with varying levels of mosquito fern FPJ. The researchers compared the results to see if there were any significant differences between the treatments. They also checked its economic profitability in terms of cost of production, net income, and return on investment.<br/><br/>The study was conducted at Sitio Halang, San Isidro, Cainta, Rizal, from October 18, 2024 to January 29, 2025 using 54 bell pepper plants. FPJ was applied thrice weekly in Treatment 2 (5 mL:1000 mL) and Treatment 3 (15 mL: 1000 mL).<br/><br/>Results showed that Treatment 1 (no FPJ) had the tallest plants (41.83 cm) and produced the most fruits (3.89). Treatment 2 had the most branches (3.72), while Treatment 3 had the most flowers (58.59). The hiighest yield was seen in Treatment 2 (51.00g). However, ANOVA showed no significant differences among treatments for any parameters indicating that FPJ has potential as a supplement but not as a sole substitute for chemical fertilizers.<br/><br/>Financially, the study incurred a loss with total revenue of P704.00, total expenses of P2,372.00, and a net income of -P1,668.20, resulting in a negative ROI of-209.23%.<br/><br/>It is recommended to incorporate mosquito fern FPJ alongside other fertilizers to enhance plant growth. Additionally, exploring alternative crop protection methods can help secure the yield. To reduce expenditures, planting bell peppers directly in the soil instead of using container gardening is advised. Experimenting with different concentrations of mosquito fern FPJ may also improve its effectiveness. Lastly, extending the data collection period to 100 days after transplanting, rather than 90 days, could provide more comprehensive insights into the crop's development.
