Red Lady-Rene Pablo farm

As far as I remember, it was the 2nd week of September when I visited the 200 red lady papaya of Rene Pablo in Barangay Suklayin in Arayat.

He learned his first lesson when the papaya started to stretch out their leaves in search of sunlight. The space become so crowded that is why some stunted trees did not grow well.

Rene Pablo farm

Rene Pablo's experimental farm during September for lady papaya taught him a lesson on how to plant the red lady's. During his first planting, the distance he had chosen is only 1.5M between rows and hills which he later admit too crowded for the papayas to bear good fruits.

Now, for half an hectare of farmland, the planting distance is now 3M between rows and hills, allowing more rooms for the papaya to grow freely and produce more fruits.

To maximize the land, he will be planting Onse tomatoes, the old reliable heavy fruiting tomatoes planted during summer.

His objective is to return his investment within a short period by turning the cash crops tomatoes into cash after three months of planting.

The farm will be using BPN as the main nutrition for the papayas. As estimated, 20 gallons will be used for the project.

Red Lady- Manding Calma

Looking back during September 15, 2008 blog when the papayas were newly planted compared to the healthy papayas taken this month, no one can really compared the difference, the papayas are blooming with flowers as of date, ready for fruiting this December.

The variety of papaya he planted originated from the Aeta, roaming the highlands of Mount Pinatubo.

Noy is now using BPN on his palay as well as the other crops. For this summer, he ordered 20 gallons of BPN to be used to his riceland.

Red Lady- Manding Calma

Kagawad Manding Calma is a small scale grower of Red Lady papaya in Suclayin. His farm is located at the back of Suclayin Elementary School.

To maximize the potential of the farm, he intercrop tomatoes along with the red lady's. Aside from papayas, he also grow stringbeans and squash. The crops in his farm are now receiving nutrition of BPN.

Kagawad Calma along with Rene Pablo will be the caretakers of the 1.1hectare OFW farms to be planted with Red Lady's.
