There’s big money in yam (ubi) farming, according to Dr. Evangeline Pera of the Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University (DMMMSU) in La Union. 


Dr. Pera led a group of DMMMSU researchers who developed a technology using appropriate practice for successful cultivation of purple yam (Dioscorea alata L.).


The team documented the practices for the benefit of those who are interested in growing this crop which, in times past, usually were harvested from the wild.

                    [Summary] => A new technology for producing yam (ubi) has been developed by researchers of the Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University (DMMMSU) in La Union.


The technology was crafted by DMMMSU researchers led by Dr. Evangeline M. Pera to help root crop farmers, particularly those producing purple yam, to increase their income.


In doing the study, the researchers noted that ubi has been gaining popularity among farmers owing to its growing demand from food processors, especially those making it into candies and purees for making ice cream.

                    [Summary] => A machine that can remove pollen flowers of tiger grass, the material used in the production of walis tambo (soft broom), is now up for commercialization. 


The device was developed by the Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University (DMMMSU), a multi-campus school in La Union. It may now be purchased from DMMMSU through PCIERD.
