[Title] => Nganga nut good for deworming goats
[Summary] => Don’t look now, but betel nut, one of the main components of the nganga masticated by a good number of Filipino old folk, is an effective dewormer for goats.
The nut, locally known as bunga (Areca catechu L.), was studied together with makabuhay, another parasiticidal plant, as to their effectiveness in removing liver fluke from goats.
The research was done by a team led by Dr. Bede P. Ozaraga of the Capiz State University (formerly Panay State Polytechnic College) in Dumarao, Capiz.

[Title] => Slaughter pigs when they are heavier — researchers
[Summary] => Heavier pigs turn out more meat – and more income.
Take this from swine raisers, butchers, and researchers from government RAD institutions who are actively involved in various aspects of the country’s swine industry.
Traditionally, pigs are slaughtered at 80 to 85 kilograms, as monitored by the Los Baños-based Department of Science and Technology-Philippine Council for Agriculture, Forestry and Natural Resources Resources Research and Development (DOST-PCARRD).

[Title] => Shrub found good feed for ruminants
[Summary] => This piece is particularly for smallholder livestock raisers.
Flemigia (scientific name: Flemingia macrophylla; local name, "malabalatong"), a leguminous tropical shrub, has been found as a good source of dietary protein for ruminant animals (cattle, carabao, goat).
It contains 22.7 percent crude protein (CP) and eight percent tannin.

[Title] => Carabao meat, anyone?
[Summary] => The meat of a crossbred carabao can be as good as beef if the carabao is raised the same way as a crossbred cattle.
Attesting to this is the result of a study titled "comparative study on the growth, carcass and meat characteristics of crossbred cattle and carabao".
The study was done by Dr. Arnel del Barrio, director of the Philippine Carabao Center (PCC) at the U.P. Los Baños. PCC, headed by Executive Director Libertao Cruz, is an agency under the Department of Agriculture (DA).
