[Summary] => The Paulo Farm in Sta. Ignacia, Camiling, Tarlac had been growing carabao mangoes since 1986 using chemical fertilizers. It harvested during on-season or by summer along with other farms. Therefore, its products were priced similarly as those of other farms.

Last November, it harvested organic mangoes for the first time during the off season period from November until March, which is why it enjoyed better prices for its produce. It sold high at P1,000 (instead of just P800 during on season) per crate precisely because it was off season.

In December 2004, the college was alarmed with the high mortality rate of the chicks in the poultry farm due to the cool weather associated with other factors. It was then that the new product was introduced to the college by Chong Ken Foo.
