PRACTICE<br />

❏ What do we mean by cross-pollinated vegetables? Did you observe different kinds, varieties, or<br />

cultivars <strong>of</strong> cross-pollinated organic vegetables (e.g., chayote, cucumber and zucchini) grown in<br />

adjoining fields <strong>of</strong> learning field?<br />

❏ What kinds, varieties, or cultivars <strong>of</strong> cross-pollinated organic vegetables did farmers commonly<br />

grow? Why did farmers prefer these vegetables to others?<br />

❏ Which kinds, varieties, or cultivars <strong>of</strong> cross-pollinated organic vegetables initiated buds and<br />

flowered first? How many fruit priming or harvesting did farmer conduct?<br />

❏ What cultural management practices did farmers employ <strong>for</strong> different kinds, varieties, or<br />

cultivars <strong>of</strong> cross-pollinated organic vegetable at different growth stages? Why did farmers<br />

employ these cultural management practices?<br />

❏ Do we need insect pollinators <strong>for</strong> cross-pollinated vegetables? Do we need to hand-pollinate<br />

cross-pollinated vegetables? Why? Why not?<br />

❏ Did you observe distinct changes in morphological structures <strong>of</strong> different kinds, varieties, or<br />

cultivars <strong>of</strong> cross-pollinated organic vegetables at different growth stages? What are these<br />

distinct changes in morphological structures?<br />

❏ Did farmers use this knowledge in morphological structures as basis <strong>for</strong> employing different<br />

cultural management practices? How?<br />

❏ Did you learn innovative cultural management practices from other farmers at different growth<br />

stages <strong>of</strong> cross-pollinated organic vegetables? What are these innovative cultural management<br />

practices?
