Bach, Mozart, Beethoven.


Bring to their serene world lifting piped-in music of the masters and they will give you more eggs and milk in return. On the other hand, poultry and cattle farms set up in places "far from the madding crowd" have not been known to be profitable.

Apply gibberellic acid (GA3), a hormone that promotes plant growth and development.


Take this advice from Wilhelmina Castañeda, a researcher of the Department of Agriculture-Regional Field Unit 1 (RFU)-Regional Outreach Station 2 (ROS) based at the Mariano Marcos State University (MMSU) complex in Batac, Ilocos Norte.


Castañeda said the application of gibberellic acid increases the yield of garlic by 56 percent, resulting in a 66-percent rise in net income.
