TLE - Agriculture Week 1 – Day 1 IMPORTANCE OF PLANTING AND PROPAGATING TREES AND FRUIT- BEARING TREES  Today We Will Learn… 1.1 Explains benefits derived from planting trees and fruit-bearing trees to families and communities TLE6AG-Oa-1 Have you imagine what will be our environment looks like if we don’t have plants or trees? What are the benefits of the trees to us as human?  Name It! Can you name the trees/plants in the picture? Are there trees and plants grown in our country? What are the benefits of the trees to us as human? From our first activity we will see that our discussion is about importance of tree and propagating and fruit-bearing trees.  Discussion Planting and propagating trees and fruit – bearing trees is a source of livelihood for many Filipino families. Nowadays, many people engage in this as a source of additional income for their daily needs. Fruit –bearing trees can be planted in your backyard depend on several factors: the space in your backyard , the kind of soil, and, and the type of climate in your own community. The pupils should be able to demonstrate understanding of scientific practices in planting and propagating trees and fruit bearing trees. It is important, however, to first learn the benefits derived from planting and propagating trees and fruit-bearing trees to families and communities. This lesson will discuss these benefits. It will also identify successful orchard growers in the country. At the same time, the lesson will present sources of fruit-bearing seedlings for sale. In addition, this lesson will also present the latest data on the volume of production of the most in demand fruit crops in the country. Why is there a need for plant propagation? Plant propagation is the process of reproducing or creating a new plant or seedling. It is an important part of gardening, whether outdoors or indoors. Plants are living things that grow either through their roots, stems and leaves of their flowers, fruits, and seeds. It is a method of growing new plants from seed or from parts of existing plants. Let’s Complete the Concept Map. Instruction: Complete the concept map. What are the benefits deprive from planting trees and fruit-bearing trees to families and community. Trees are valuable to the family and the community for the products and amenities they give such as:  Interview Time! Instruction: Group yourself into 5, conduct a survey with you community. Guide Questions: 1.What are the named of the trees/plans that they have in their yard or community? 2.What are the uses of these plants/trees give in the community? 3.Do they have project in promoting planting trees? Can you list down? 4.How the students contribute to these projects? 5.What have you learn from this activity? After conducting your survey and data. Write it down in a short bond paper. Prepare your group to dicuss this data and information to your classmates on Friday.  Let’s Remember Trees are important to the family and community as they are sources of food, lumber for construction of houses, fiber for paper, fuel for cooking, and chemicals like resin and turpentine. Trees provide benefits to the environment. Some of these are: 1) they protect the soil from erosion; 2) they help maintain high quality water supplies; 3) their root system promotes soil stability; 4) they serve as valuable wildlife habitat; 5) they are attractive and effective windbreakers: 6) they prevent floods; and 7) they prevent lake and river sedimentation, etc.  Let’s Reflect Instruction: Find a partner and answer the following questions. 1.What is you favorite plant or trees? 2.Do you think plants are important to us? Why? 3.Are you in favor of cutting trees in our environment?  Let’ name it! Can you give some delicious food with fruit-bearing trees or plants? Example: Salad Let us learn about importance of planting and propagating trees and fruit-bearing trees.  Other Benefits Derived from Trees There are benefits derived from trees to maintain a healthy environment. Some of these benefits include: 1.They provide shade and fresh air around the house and, along the streets and surroundings. Trees are very much needed by people in these times of climate change when the temperature is high and the heat of the sun becomes intense. Without trees, there are no shades to keep us cool. 2.They protect the soil from erosion. Have you seen big roots that extend several meters from the trunk or go deeper into the soil? These roots hold the soil, preventing it from eroding when rain or floods come. 3.They help maintain high quality water supply. The roots of plants and trees help strain the dirt and cleanse the water as it passes through the roots. 4.The root system promotes soil stability. This means that the soil held by the roots remain there and does not erode. 5.They serve as valuable wildlife habitats. Wild animals live in places with many trees like that of a forest. 6.They serve as windbrakers during typhoons and storms, thus, reducing the destruction of home and agricultural crops. A typhoon that is strong usually moves at a very fast speed. It continues to be that strong if there are no barriers on the path where it moves. But when it passes barriers like mountains and trees, it slows down and its speed is reduced. Small crops and plants as well as houses are safe when typhoon is weak. 7.They help reduce pollutions in congested urban areas. Remember that trees take in carbon dioxide emitted from vehicles that belches smoke. The more trees present, the less amount of carbon dioxide is in the air. 8.They contribute to the beautiful landscapes in the city and the countryside. Imagine a land with plenty of trees and grass and a scattering of flowers of beautiful colors, sizes, and shapes. 9.They improve the atmosphere of a place by giving a feeling of freshness and coolness as they reduce temperature. 10.They prevent river and lake sedimentation. Have you observed a river bank that is lined endlessly with full-grown trees? These trees help hold the water in the lake and river and keep it there. This prevents the lake and river from drying up. 11. They prevent floods. Floods occur when water from rain rushes in causing soil erosion. However, if there are trees to serve as barriers and the roots to hold the water, flood will not occur. Trees and Fruit-bearing trees that one can plant Some of the common trees planted in both rural and urban areas are the following: Can you give other trees that can grow in rural and urban areas that you know? Some of the common fruit-bearing trees are the following: Can you give other trees that bearing fruits that you know? Instruction: Fill in the blanks with the best answer by selecting from the box below. a. home f. oxygen to help us b. trees breathe c. oxygen h. home for animals d. food j. food for animan ang e. shade from sun people ___ are an important part of our world. They are ___ for birds and other animals like monkeys.

Have you try to plant a tree, plants, or flower? What are your experiences? Is it fun? Do you want to plant again if you given a chance? Did you know that some of our fellow Filipinos are successful orchard owners? Let’s meet them! Let us learn about the successful orchard growers in the Philippines.  Successful orchard growers in the Philippines If you get to know the success stories of our country’s top orchard growers, you would never imagine how they got to where they are now. Their hard work, determination, and will to succeed is truly worth emulating. Below are three of our successful orchard growers: Editha Aguinaldo Dacuycuy- Manang Editha ventured into the dragon fruit business when she was told how the fruit can help relieve constipation problems – a condition common to cerebral palsy patients. Her daughter, Kate, was suffering from this ailment. Selling at Php 450.00 per kilo, dragon fruit was too expensive for Editha, so she decided to raise her own fruits in their backyard. From a small plot, they now own a 10-hectare property. Dubbed as “Dragon Lady”, Manang Editha, together with her husband and daughter, Mimie Mildred), also expanded their business into dragon fruit ice cream, vegan dragon fruit lumpia, wine, vinegar, and even empanadita, dumplings, and burger patties. Located in Barangay Paayas, Burgos, Ilocos Norte, REFMAD Farms ( Rare Eagle Forest Marine and agricultural Development) is now an agritourism showcase offering research and livelihood training to fellow Ilocanos and interested farmers. No less than President NOYNOY Aquino awarded Manag Editha for her hardwork, as well as other well- known awarding bodies. Her farm has a steady market in neighboring provinces in Ilocos Norte and Metro Manila. Dole Philippines orders in bulk, while hotels in Ilocos Norte are their regular clients. Alfredo M. Yao – The “Juice King of the Philippines, also owns a farm in Negros Occidental aside from Zest – O Corporation. At 12 years old, he lost his father and grew up doing odd jobs to help his mother feed her family of six children. One of his jobs was working in a warehouse of a packaging company. Encouraged by the promising profitability of a packaging format in Europe (Doypack), he bought one and tried to market the machine to local juice manufacturers. When no factory took notice, he made his own fruit juice and launched what was to become one of the biggest local juice brands. Patricio Base – With his 3-hectare plantation of watermelons, honeydew melons, and papaya, he produces crops year-round in Alicia, Isabela. He was able to send his four children to college with his earnings. He used to grow rice before venturing into watermelons. He said there was no money in planting rice, but now with melons, one can even hit the jackpot. In July 2013, he planted Diana watermelons in 3,500 square meters and got 12 tons worth Php 480.00.  Successful orchard growers in the community or adjacent communities: 1.Sinura Pampanga Farm (San Fernando, Pampanga) It has 1000 guapple trees, few mango trees and calamansi. 2.Anon, Florida Blanca Farm Has fruit bearing trees, 600 calamansi, 35 mango and other assorted fruits. 3.Sta. Ana Mango Farm Has 50 income generating mango trees and fish pond. 4.Mango Farm, Magalang ,Pampanga Has mango and other fruit bearing trees. 5.Fruit Farm – Mitula Homes, San Fernando, Pampanga This is a dragon fruit farm.  Let’s Reflect 1.What are the benefits we derived from trees and fruit – bearing trees? 2.How do trees contribute to a healthy and safe environment? 3.What are the benefits of having a skill in planting trees?  Let’s Check your understanding Instruction: Write T if the statement is true and F if it is false. _______ 1.
