Banano - Ethical - Consideration (Revised)
Banano - Ethical - Consideration (Revised)
the respondents participating in the study. To ensure the research is conducted ethically
and responsibly, the researchers will fulfill the nine ethical considerations set by the
guidelines and regulations are a legal requirement and a moral obligation to protect the
Social Value. The research aims to study how to prevent the spread of banana
disease and help local farmers preserve a high-quality product and maintain the banana
plant's health. The respondents will benefit from the said study by alleviating the spread
of banana-related diseases, thus producing more products and increasing their income,
ultimately improving their living standards. Additionally, preventing the spread of banana
disease can have positive environmental impacts, as it may reduce the need for harmful
pesticides and other chemicals commonly used to control the disease. This can lead to
a more sustainable and eco-friendly approach to banana cultivation, which can benefit
the farmers, the community, and the broader ecosystem. The Department of Agriculture
would greatly benefit from the study results since it would improve the detection of
banana-related diseases and thus help improve the quality of banana and banana
Informed consent. The researchers will prioritize the well-being and autonomy
of the respondents and are working to create a consent process that is respectful,
transparent, and sensitive to individual needs and circumstances. To achieve this goal,
the proponents crafted an informed consent form that is clear and free from technical
terms that might lead to confusion. Before conducting the survey, the proponents will
follow the strict health protocol of the IATF by implementing these protocol such as wear
facemask, physical distancing and disinfection. The proponents will give a health
screening before the face-to-face interaction. The proponents will give the informed
consent form in print. The respondents will have to write their printed name and
signature to certify that they are willing to be part of the study and accept the purpose,
risks, and benefits of participating in it. Withdrawing their consent at any time and their
observed.
Risk, Benefits, and Safety. Despite the benefits that the research study may
provide, there are risky practices associated with dealing with the device, such as
inhaled fumes and direct skin contact when handling pesticide that will be poured into a
small barrel and used as a refill the container that contains the pesticide that is precisely
part of the system. To alleviate the said risk, PPE must be worn as a safety precaution
to alleviate the said risk when directly interacting with the pesticide container. It will act
as the distribution point and point of origin for the pesticide utilized in every sprayer the
researcher’s device. Furthermore, the researchers will consider the sake of the
respondents and their risk in the deployment of devices, such as the dispersing of
pesticides through the air produced by each sprayer and potentially affecting the air, as
this may result in health issues for the individuals living beside or surrounded by the
plantation area. The area where the device is designated is an isolated area where
most of the parts of the area are banana plantations, and it is at least 5 km away from
the community. The researcher will implement safety measures by providing them
protective equipment and train them on safe handling of the technology. Pesticides can
vegetation or water can suffer from acute toxicity, which can lead to illness or death.
The effects of pesticide poisoning can be particularly severe for small animals, such as
birds and insects, which can be more vulnerable to pesticides than larger animals. The
use of pesticides on banana plantations can have negative effects on wildlife, including
acute toxicity, disruption of the food chain, changes in behavior, and reduced
these chemicals in a responsible and sustainable manner, following best practices for
pesticide use and taking steps to minimize their impact on the environment or death. In
order to mitigate these effects the researcher ensured that there are no domestic
animals on site. If soil becomes contaminated with banana pesticides, it can have a
range of negative effects on the soil quality and the surrounding environment.
Pesticides can persist in soil for varying periods, depending on the type of pesticide and
reduce the populations of soil bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms that play
essential roles in maintaining soil health, such as nutrient cycling, soil structure
formation, and plant growth promotion. As a result, soil fertility and productivity can
decline, and plants may become more susceptible to diseases and pests. In order to
mitigate the result of the pesticide on the soil, the researcher will apply bagasse on the
surface of the testing site before the actual testing. After several applications of the
pesticide, farmers may remove the contaminated bagasse to clean the area and the
researchers will also be helping the respondents in case the respondents chooses to
remove the bagasse. The study that we will conducting as a fabricators can provide
significant benefits to both the respondents and our group. By developing innovative
technology for agriculture, we can help to improve crop yields, reduce labor costs,
preventing the spread of disease, create new market opportunities, increase revenue,
enhance our reputation, and have a positive social impact. The benefits of the study
consent, and taking appropriate measures to mitigate risks, we can help to ensure that
researchers will be safeguarding the privacy and confidentiality of the research study
respondents. Thus, the researchers will adhere to the Data Privacy Act of 2012 and not
collect sensitive data and information from the respondents. Furthermore, no private
information will be gathered from the respondents, and study respondents will never be
specifically identified. The soft copy record will kept on a laptop (owned by the lead
researcher) has secure password that only the lead researcher has access. The
secured filing cabinet while the research is still going through. Once the research is
Justice. To ensure the fairness and integrity of the research study, the
researchers will use random sampling in selecting study participants and respondents.
The respondents must be (18 years of legal age and above) and have been farming
bananas for at least one year in a banana plantation in the region. The researchers will
assist the respondents if they have concerns about the consent form and questionnaire,
and the researchers will give clear instructions and assistance to secure their safety and
the safety of the respondents. The researcher will provide a contact number or direct
message to the provided social media platform of the researchers. The researcher will
implement safety measures to minimize the risk of exposure to pesticide and train them
on safe handling use of pesticides. If any of the respondents and researcher becomes ill
or shows signs of pesticide poisoning we should respond promptly to address the issue
this may include providing medical care and removing them from further exposure of
pesticides. The researcher will be giving a certificate of appreciation when the study is
relationship with their research adviser, technical panel, and respondents. The study is
also not funded by private or public agencies; the researcher personally funds it. To
uphold the integrity of the study, the researchers will be disclosing any forms of conflict
of interest that arise. To minimize or eliminate conflict, the researchers will remove
themselves from certain aspects of the research or ensure that the study design and
data analysis are conducted independently. The researchers will give the respondents a
copy of the results if they ask them. A final printed copy of the study will be given to the
College of Engineering and Technology, the institution where the researcher is currently
enrolled, and to the Commission on Higher Education. Moreover, the researchers are
degree. The researcher had practical experience in farming or agriculture can provide
valuable insights into challenges and best practice associated with crop management
and pesticide use. The researcher will be assist by the adviser or instructor to ensure
that the study is conduct safely or effectively. They had already undergone Methods of
Research and CpE Practice and Design 1 as well as seminars and workshops on
design facilities. For the safety and security of the respondents and the researchers,
these farms have vast areas and well-ventilated farms. The researchers will also adhere
to the rules and guidelines for entering banana farms. They will subject themselves to
proper authorization for compliance for the participants, such as foot cleansing, before
Community involvement. The design aims for local farmers to automate their
methods, whether they are not into technology, and to modernize the old techniques of
banana farming. Using the study's result, the researchers are willing to impart their
knowledge to these farmers to adopt these technologies in Banana farming slowly. The
