Resource Manual on IPPM in Vegetable World Education Philippines, Inc. 2. EGGPLANT a. Introduction Eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) is known as aubergine (Europe), brinjal (India and Bangladesh), talong (Tagalog), tarong (Ilocano), or bringhinas (Bisaya). It is cultivated for the immature fruits which are either roasted, fried, boiled, baked, pickled, or processed and can be used in stews or for garnishing. Preferred eggplant types are the long, purple varieties with green calyx, but some regions also prefer the long or round, green-colored varieties. Eggplant is generally cultivated as mono-crop year-round type of plant. b. Climate and Soil Requirements Eggplant is a warm season vegetable adapted for year round production in the tropics. It is not sensitive to daylength and can grow and flower freely anytime of the year. Its temperature requirement is 25-35°C (day) and 20-27°C (night). It is tolerant to hot night temperature. Eggplant is moderately tolerant to salinity and can grow at pH 4.3 8.7 (optimum pH 5.5 6.8). It is best adapted to fairly fertile, well-drained loams but can also grow on sandy soils and clay soils where its roots are often waterlogged. Table 27.

Seedling Production Eggplant fruit colors (top row) and shapes (bottom row) About 250 g of seeds is required in one hectare eggplant production. Prepare soil mix (generally 2:1:1 soil: sand: compost). Sterilize mixture by drenching boiling water or burning rice hull on the bed. Allow the soil to cool off before sowing. Sow seeds at the rate of approximately five seeds per linear centimeter or ten grams of seeds per square meter and cover lightly with soil. 103
