A. Rationale
Bioconversion is the conversion of organic materials, such as plant or animal
waste, into usable products or energy resources by biological processes or agents, such as
a certain microorganisms or enzymes, bioconversion can be carried out physically,
thermochemically and biologically.This process has been applied in the production of
foodstuffs, organic chemicals and energy. Biological methods for bioconversion has
given priority with the use of microorganisms as less expensive yet effective agents, this
process is also know as fermentation. The agriculture sector is deemed unsustainable by
various studies as the main focus of the current development agenda is feeding the ever-
expanding population. It loses sight of the negative environmental consequences it
creates, particularly on soil health. Land use is optimized through technologies and
management practices that fall short of requirements for sustainability. The current
practice in agriculture is basically chemical-based farming that makes a considerable
contribution to the degradation of our natural resources especially soils. Heavy
application of fertilizers has polluted surface and groundwater resources (dela Cruz,
2006). Growing vegetables has been a practice for centuries in civilized countries.
Vegetables are a very important food commodity. Aside from playing a major role in
meeting our vitamin, mineral and protein requirements, they also serve as a reliable
source of income of farmers (Chauburg, 1984 as cited by Torrefiel, 2006). The income
derived from growing vegetables is relatively higher than other crops, because growers
can produce more crops from a small area in a very short period of time.

B. Research Question and Hypothesis

 This research study aims to determine the effectiveness of chicken bone and tulya
shell as a nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, fertilizer to be used for the productiveness and
growth of the mustard plants.

Specifically,the researchers seek to answers to the following questions:

1. How effective are chicken bone and tulya shell as an npk fertilizer for
mustard plant?
2. Is there a significant difference between the growth of mustard using the
chicken bone mixed with tulya shell?
3. Among the three set ups what is the most effective in growing the mustard
plant in terms of:
a. height
b. number of the leaves

C. General Procedures
A. Gathering of materials

The researcher will prepare and gather the materials at the same time from
different parts of Barangay Bigaan with appropriate quantity of materials such as the
following: 1 kilo of chicken bone and tulya shell, commercial fertilizer, loam soil, twelve
(12) plastic pots, hammer, two (2) unused bottles and lastly is a weighing scale will be
borrowed from the store, this were the following materials that the researcher will use
throughout the experimentation.

B. Marerial Preparation

1 kilo of chicken bone and tulya shell (corbicula fluminea) will gathered by the
researcher from different parts of Barangay Bigaan. The researcher will washed the
chicken bone, tulya shell with tap water to remove dirt and let it expose to the sun.

C. Pulverizing

Using a weighing scale 200g of chicken bone and tulya shell will be measure. The
bone and the shell will be crush into smaller pieces and will be put in one bottle
containing 125g of chicken bone and tulya shell.

D. Seedling production
 Seeds of pechay will be sown in seedling trays filled with garden soil and
compost at 1:1 ratio. The seed box will be place under structure to protect the seedlings
from the rain and direct sunlight.

E. Transplanting

The seedlings will be transfer into the 9 plastic pots 7 days after germination. One
seedling will be planted per plot. The loam soil will be filled with ¾ of the volume of the
plastic pot. The transplanting of seedling will be done in the afternoon to minimize
transplanting stress. The seedlings will be water adequately before and immediately after
transplanting.

F. Experimental Design and Set ups

9 polyethylene pots will be use in the study with a size of 10 cm. The pot
experiment will be laid on the ground with 5 hollow blocks around it. There will be three
set ups for the mustard plant. The set ups will follows:

Set (A) = Tulya Shell,Chicken Bone

Set (B) = Commercial Fertilizer
Set (C) = Pure Soil

Abstract
This experimental research aims to create an npk fertilizer in improving the growth interms of
height gain and leaves count of green mustard plant using chicken bone and tulya shell
( corbicula fluminea ). We will add of pulverized chicken bone to the soil and were being put in
the soil with the green mustard plant ( brassica juncea ) to get the nutrients. In doing our
experiment , we have done 3 set ups we’re each of the 3 mustard plant in the given set ups. Set
A is the Experimental group we’re the 50g of chicken bone and tulya shell being mixed with
the soil everyday from day to night for about 1 month. IN Set up B is our Positive Control we’re
the 60g of commercial fertilizer were being mixed with the soil from plant1 to plant3 and lastly
is our Set up C which is our Negative control we’re the mustard plant in this set up haven’t
being putted any kind of fertilizers because they only need to be watered everyday with normal
water.
Green mustard plant treated with commercial fertilizers grow faster than
others because after weeks of observation , the plant in this set up reach an average height of 4
cm and 5 no. of leaves gain compared to chickens treated with chicken bone and tulya shell that
only have an average height of 3 cm and leaves count of 4 this results prove that our hyphothesis
is rejected thus , there is a significant difference between the effects of the three set ups on
enhancing the growth of agreen mustard(bassica juncea) plant interms of height and no. of
leaves gain.

I. Introduction
Fertilizer is a substance helping crops to grow quickly. Fertilizer is a natural and
synthetic material used for soil fertility or to replace the soil's chemical elements removed from
prior plants. The use of artificial fertilizers can harm the natural nutrients of the soil, with most
farmers discovering a better way to help their crops grow rapidly. Some gardeners used
artificial fertilizer that can damage the soil's natural nutrients. The researchers discovered
another way to prevent damage in plant growth and productivity by using banana peels and
eggshells as an alternative fertilizer. It is a useful way to use chicken bone and tulya shells as an
alternative npk fertilizer for mustasa, taking into account the fact that it releases nutrients such
as potassium, phosphorus, potassium that crops needed, as well as the soil. It also seeks to
decrease the waste of food simply by using it as a fertilizer. Bioconversion is the conversion of
organic materials, such as plant or animal waste, into usable products or energy resources by
biological processes or agents, such as a certain microorganisms or enzymes, bioconversion can
be carried out physically, thermochemically and biologically. This process has been applied in
the production of foodstuffs, organic chemicals and energy. Biological methods for
bioconversion has given priority with the use of microorganisms as less expensive yet effective
agents.
 The agriculture sector is deemed unsustainable by various studies as the main focus of the
current development agenda is feeding the ever-expanding population. It loses sight of the
negative environmental consequences it creates, particularly on soil health. Land use is
optimized through technologies and management practices that fall short of requirements for
sustainability. The current practice in agriculture is basically chemical-based farming that
makes a considerable contribution to the degradation of our natural resources especially soils.
Heavy application of fertilizers has polluted surface and groundwater resources (dela Cruz,
2006). Growing vegetables has been a practice for centuries in civilized countries. Vegetables
are a very important food commodity. Aside from playing a major role in meeting our vitamin,
mineral and protein requirements, they also serve as a reliable source of income of farmers
(Chauburg, 1984 as cited by Torrefiel, 2006). The income derived from growing vegetables is
relatively higher than other crops, because growers can produce more crops from a small area
in a very short period of time.

Mustard is a type of leaf vegetable that is favored by people and consumers from various groups.
Almost all people like mustard because it tastes fresh and contains lots of vitamins A, B, and a
little vitamin C, E, and K (Sunarjono, 2004). Mustard plants grow well on soil that con-tains lots
of nutrients, loose structures, and good drainage (Haryanto et al., 2006). Therefore, to in-crease
the yield of the mustard plant, more inten-sive management is needed, followed by improved soil
fertility. One of the actions that can be taken to meet and improve the chemical properties and
soil nutrients is the provision of organic fertilizers (Gusnidar et al., 2011). Inorganic fertilizers
are the most common fertilizers used by the farmers. However, its use incurs a high cost and its
supply is sometimes limited that many farmers now are still adapting the idea of using npk
fertilizers no matter how long and laborious is the preparation. Brady (1974) reported that
organic matter increases the cation exchange capacity of the soil. Aside from its ability to supply
nutrients,npk fertilizers are also capable of improving the physical, chemical and biological
properties of the soil which could significantly improve the growth and development of plants.
There is paucity of information on the use of NPK fertilizers for vegetable production and
therefore this study aimed to evaluate the effect of different levels of chicken bone and tulya shell
as a source of NPK fertilizers on the growth and yield performance of green mustard. Hence,
this research is designed to assist home gardeners and future researchers. Instead of spending
too much on purchasing chemical fertilizers in increasing crops, it is much better to use banana
peels and eggshells or other decomposed materials to assist fertilize the soil. The gardeners and
farmers can grow more crops and at the same time can save money as well.

2. Materials and Method

Research Method

The researcher used an experimental research to find out the difference among the three
set ups in the study. He perform and gathered the results in terms of height and number of the
leaves of the plant. Experimental research is based. In the observation to find out it can be
specific and testable.

Preparation Of Materials
 The researcher prepared and gathered the materials at the same time from different
parts of Barangay Bigaan with appropriate quantity of materials such as the following: 1 kilo of
chicken bone and tulya shell, commercial fertilizer, loam soil, eight (8) plastic pots, hammer,
one(1)glass bottles and lastly is a weighing scale will be borrowed from the store, this were the
following materials that the researcher were use throughout the experimentation.

1 kilo of chicken bone 1 kilo of tulya shell

commercial fertilizer loam soil

polyethylene bags glass bottle

 hammer weighing scale

Pulverizing

 (after pulverizing it the researcher place it in a glass bottle)

Seedling production

Seeds of green mustard will be sown in seedling trays filled with garden soil and compost at
1:1 ratio. The seed box will be place under structure to protect the seedlings from the rain and
direct sunlight.

(the picture below shows the green mustard plant after germinating it for 7days)

o
Transplanting

The seedlings will be transfer into the 9 plastic pots 7 days after germination. One seedling
will be planted per plot. The loam soil will be filled with ¾ of the volume of the plastic pot. The
transplanting of seedling will be done in the afternoon to minimize transplanting stress. The
seedlings will be water adequately before and immediately after transplanting.

Experimental Design and Set ups

9 polyethylene pots were use in the study with a size of 10 cm. The pot experiment were
being laided on the ground. The loam soil of each plant were being mixed and cultivated, in Set
(A) 50g of chicken bone and tulya shell were mixed with the soil everyday, Set (B) 60g of
commercial fertilizer were being mixed with the soil, and lastly Set (C) remained the same with
no variable being used. There will be three set ups for the green mustard plant.The set ups were
as follows :

Set (A) = Chicken bone, Tulya shell

Set (B) = Pure fertilizer
Set (C) = Pure soil
