                    [Summary] => Call it folk technology.


A project of Silang (Cavite) farmers, it has been named 1:4 Pooc Agroforestry, a multi-storey cropping system. The system explains its name: 1 stands for one hectare and 4 for the number of crops simultaneously grown.


The technology was adjudged the Most Outstanding Agroforestry Practice (first prize) in the poster presentation contest at the First National Agroforestry Congress held last Nov. 19-20 at the Leyte State University (LSU) in Baybay, Leyte.

                    [Summary] => Mention Roselle and what instantaneously comes to mind is a woman. 


But in the agriculture world, it’s an okra-like plant commonly used in the preparation of "sinigang" mix, tea, jam, jelly, and juice. It is also a good source of fiber products such as textile, thread, and pulp and paper.


Roselle’s seeds are likewise best as feed for chicken.


Its leaves have medicinal uses as well, such as treatment for constipation, indigestion, antiseptic, and aphrodisiac. It also can normalize blood pressure and prevent cancer.
