Cucurbitaceae plant family that is produced widely because of high source of nutrients
content like vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. (Ene et al., 2016). Cucumber is an
Philippines all year around, and its production has increased with an average annual
rate of 2.79% from 2003 to 2017 (Knoema, 2018). The demand of cucumbers, as well
use this crop as main ingredient of one of their leading products, the Lady’s Choice
grown vegetable crops the world over. Economically cucumbers are very important, as
(Cucumis sativus). Cucumber is healthy fruit which having lots of benefits. Cucumber
regulates hydration and maintain adequate blood pressure and sugar, soothes skin,
helped in digestion and reduces fat and help weight loss. ( IntecOpen, 2021)

Business Description
and manage by the project manager Mr. Cesar Jade T. Ignacio, a student of Davao De
Oro State College Maragusan Branch student. The project start on November 10, 2022
up to April 22, 2022, at Purok Sampaguita, Bagong Silang, Maragusan, Davao de Oro.
The total production area was 1000 square meters with 40 plots and each per plot with
Seaweed extract also enhances crop yields, promotes plant resilience to frost and
disease, stimulates inorganic ingredient intake from the soil, improves stress
resistance, and minimizes fruit storage losses. Seaweed contain almost every micro-
which plants use as a building block. Seaweed also contains a number of other
substances called bio stimulants which are claimed to help plants grow, ward off
disease and produce higher crop yields. The bio stimulants in seaweed fertilizer might
be more valuable than the NPK nutrient. Given the high cost of seaweed extract, it’s
important to know if these bio stimulants really work. Seaweed has readily available
nutrients such as nitrogen, magnesium, potassium, and phosphate. It also has other
hormones that boost plant growth. Some university studies show that using seaweed
as a fertilizer can increase the yield in potatoes, strawberries, tomatoes, corn, and
cucumbers up to 40%. In addition, the plants suffered less from softening and rotting.
The study suggested that seaweed fertilizer could be the most applicable and should
be widely used in the agriculture industry, as the seed germination rates and root and
shoot elongation were observed high. These fertilizer would lessen the impacts on the
environment. Seaweed fertilizer are among the best modern sustainable biological
plant growth promoters. They have been proven to eliminate plant diseases and abiotic
MEGA C F1 were popular not only as a food source, but also because of their
cucumber has a cooling effect, helping to calm irritations, revitalize the skin and gently
soothe delicate areas of skin like the lips and around the eyes. Cucumbers are also
96% water so are great to incorporate into your diet to keep hydration levels up. This
high water content helps your body flush out any built-up toxins as well.
Market Opportunity
Cucumber is good of income, especially for the small farmer. It can be profitable
and cultivated any time of the year. Cucumber is one of the most highly competitive
auction, cooperative, local retailers, roadside stands, and pick-your-own operation. You
should conduct some market research because often growers overestimate their ability
to sell in given market. Production of less than one acre of many vegetable crops is
typical for most growers. Several marketing alternatives are available to the cucumber
grower.

Transplanting
The cucumber seedling was transplanting manually. The cucumber seedling was
transplanted to the field with three to four leaves available. Transplanting should be
done early in the morning or late moon to avoid stress. There was 2,000 cucumber
planted in the area using the planting distance given. Cucumber was transplanted in
