TOMATO
Variety Color Shape No. of Locules Seedness
Native vibrant red orange oblate 2 more
SML Baguio red orange spherical 6 least
Diamante yellow orange spherical 3 most seedy
Rocky 1 orange spherical 2 less
The seeds of the tomato os essential in flavoring. Since I do not have any digestive problems I
would prefer Diamante as a variety for tomato.

EGGPLANT
Variety Color Shape Size (cm)
TM-9 green and violet spherical 5
Purple Star dark violet oblong 14
A shiny violet oblong 19
Casino violet oblong 26.5
As someone who loves to pick the eggplant when our dish during our meal is pinakbet, I would
prefer the Casino variety of eggplant. Since it is longer, it means more eggplants in the pinakbet. It is also
the perfect variety for tortang talong. I would also pick TM-9 if I would be cooking nilagang talong because
of its shape and size, it will fit in the caserole.

BANANA
Variety Color Shape Size (cm)
Lakatan bright yellow crescent 16
Latundan light yellow round 8.5
Saba pale yellow angular 12
Lagkitan pale yellow oblong 10
There are lot of varieties of banana. Each have different purpose. Saba is for bananaque. Other
varieties can be for maruya and others. But I would prefer the lakatan which is longer and can be eaten
every after meal or even just when someone is craving for it. It is ready to eat.

CORN
Variety Color Size
IPB Var 6 white 16.5
IPB Var 11 orange 17
IPB Var 911 yellow 18.75
Camotes brass-color 15.25
IPB Var 13 yellow 17.5
Sweet Corn yellow 15.5
Lagkitan white 15.5
Kayuta dark violet 10.25
Tiniguib white 7.5
I am not fan of sweet corns and corns with other colors except white. So, the lagkitan and IPB Var
6 would be my preference. And since it is long then it means more kernel.
MUNGBEAN
Variety Pod Color Seed Color
Pag-asa 3 brownish-black yellowish-brown
Pag-asa 5 brownish-black green
Pag-asa 7 brownish-black green
Pag-asa 15 brownish-black green
Pag-asa 21 reddish-brown green
Pag-asa 5, 7, and 15 would be my preference because their seeds are green and the pods are
brownish-black which is the common color for a mungbean. Since there are no other characteristics
mentioned in the table and since there is just a slight difference in the color of the seeds, I would go to the
variety which have a longer pods and do not have shattering pods.

SORGHUM
Variety Size of the Grain Color
SG-5 0.4 mm brick-brown
Sweet Sorghum SPV 422 0.4 mm off-white
Since the color is the only difference between the two I would go the variety which will
have a higher yield which is not mentioned in the table. As a customer, I would still pick SG-5
because it is more common to me.
