SUMMARY, CONCLUSIONS AND


RECOMMENDATIONS

This chapter presents the summary of the study which includes the

statement of the problem, short discussion of the methodology, and the findings

presented in outline form. It also states the conclusions as based from the findings

and finally, the recommendations of the study.

This chapter presented the summary of the problems, the conclusions based

from the findings and the recommendations based from the conclusions of the

research study.

Summary of the Problem. The research study focuses on the growth enhancing

potential of Optimizing Tomato (Solanum Lycopersicum) Growth Through the

Use of Banana Peel as A Biofertilizer.

. Specifically, it sought to answer the following questions:

1. Does the alternative growth enhancer have significant effect on the growth of
tomato plant?

2. In what concentration level does the growth enhancer most efficient to

the growth of tomato plant.

Findings

The salient findings of the research study after the experimentation are as

follows:

74

1. A. In the surface area of the leaves of Solanum lycopersicum of treated group,

10% solution has significant difference with 20% and 40% solution and has

greater mean of 7.1 but has no significant difference with 75%

solution; greater mean of 8.14. The 40% solution has no significant difference

with 30% but with lesser mean of 4, and has no significant difference with 40%;

greater mean of 4.3. The 40% solution has no significant difference with 75%

solution but with lesser mean of 4.3. B. In the surface area of leaves in controlled

group and treated group, controlled group has no significant difference with 10%,

20% and 30% solution but with greater mean of 7.6. The controlled group has no

significant difference with 40% solution; greater mean of 8.14 C. In the root mass

growth of the treated group, 20% solution has no significant difference with 20%,

30% and 40% solution but with a greater mean of 8.7. The 40% solution has no

significant difference with 40% but with lesser mean of 4.625, has no significant

difference with 100%; lesser mean of 4.17. The 75% solution has no significant

difference with 100% solution but has a greater mean of 6 D. In the root mass

growth of controlled group and treated group, controlled group has significant

difference with 20; greater mean of 8.7. The controlled group has no significant

difference with 30%, 40% and 40% solution but has a greater mean of 6 E. In the

height of Solanum lycopersicum, 20% solution has significant difference with 40%

solution; lesser mean of 13.55. The 25% solution has significant difference with

30% and 40% solution but with greater mean of 19.2. The 40% solution has
75

significant difference with 40% solution; greater mean of 16.79, and has no

significant difference 100% but with lesser mean of 13.55. The 40% solution has

no significant difference with 40% solution; lesser mean with 14.58 F. In the

height of Solanum lycopersicum in controlled group and treated group, controlled

group has no significant difference with 25% solution but with lesser mean of

16.9, has significant difference with 40% solution, and has no significant

difference with 40% solution and 40% solution but with greater mean. 2. Among

other concentration level, 25% solution has the highest mean in both Height of the

plant and root mass growth. Also, 40% solution has the highest mean in surface

area of the leaves but with no significant difference with 20% solution.

Qualitative Analysis

In the research experiment, researchers were able to observe dead subjects

after a week of experimentation. 40% solution has recorded four dead subjects,

40% Previous researches and related literatures has showed that using pure

solution or high amount of concentration could yield into mortality. This

implication has a significant and close similarity on the results of the research

study. According to a study of urine as liquid fertilizer, using a pure urine without

mixture of other low-concentrated substance such as water, subjects of that study

has derived and resulted into mortality of the samples. Subjectively, among other

concentrations, 20% solution has yielded an enhanced growth. Other

concentrations has records of dead subjects or samples. However, though the


76

control group has not recorded dead samples, still it is statistically different when

it comes to the growth development of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) plant,

which has been shown in the data presented and interpreted in tables through One-

way ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) as statistical tool with 0.05 level of

significance.

Conclusion

1. Alternative growth enhancer using Liquid Fermented Banana (Musa acuminata)

peels has a significant effect on tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) plant in

terms of its surface area of the leaves, root mass growth and height.

2. After the experimentation, 25% solution is more effective in terms of Root

Mass Growth and height of the plant. In the surface area of the leaves, 75%

solution is more effective between other concentrations and the Control Group

Banana peel as an organic growth enhancer has a significant effect in tomato

(Solanum lycopersicum) plant.

Recommendation

1. Liquid Fermented banana peels will help farmers and tomato growers to

utilize an organic source of nutrients in enhancing the growth development of

tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) plant.


77

2. It is highly encouraged that in using liquid fertilizers, low concentration

of the solution will yield an enhanced effect.

3. The future researchers are encouraged to examine what is the minimum

concentration level of the solution which the effects are still observed.
