This multi-quarter, multi-student project, titled \u201c2024 Solanum aethiopicum \u2018Gilo\u2019 Variety Trial at the Evergreen Organic Farm\u201d, is designed to evaluate four varieties of S. aethiopicum \u2018Gilo\u2019 in the categories of germination, vigor, insect and disease resistance, yield and marketability, and flavor. Specific learning objectives are to study the design and implementation of variety trials, to establish parameters and rubrics for evaluating S. aethiopicum \u2018Gilo\u2019, to learn how to assess selected varieties for insect and disease resistance, to collect data regarding yield and marketable yield, to assess the possibilities for marketing \u2018Gilo\u2019 in our area, to create educational materials for customers of the farm, and to establish tasting protocols to be utilized when evaluating crops for flavor. Student will utilize a selected field at the Evergreen Organic Farm to create a replicated variety trial for S. Aethiopicum \u2018Gilo\u2019 and assess the suitability of the selected varieties for the climate and the farm. Students will design, implement, manage and monitor a replicated field trial for selected varieties of ‘Gilo\u2019. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Student or Group Info Name(s): Gregorio, Emmerson RTerm: Summer 2024Credits: 4Title of ILC or Group Project: 2024 solanum aethiopicum “Gilo” Variety trial at the Evergreen Organic Farm Sponsor Contractor: Dr. Sarah WilliamsOrganization: TESC Subcontractor Name: Ben HunsdorferTitle: Faculty Organization: TESC Program of Project Description Narrative: This multi-quarter, multi-student project, titled \u201c2024 Solanum aethiopicum \u2018Gilo\u2019 Variety Trial … Continue reading ILC<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.evergreen.edu\/foodagproject-su24-gregorio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/35"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.evergreen.edu\/foodagproject-su24-gregorio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.evergreen.edu\/foodagproject-su24-gregorio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.evergreen.edu\/foodagproject-su24-gregorio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.evergreen.edu\/foodagproject-su24-gregorio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=35"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.evergreen.edu\/foodagproject-su24-gregorio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/35\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":95,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.evergreen.edu\/foodagproject-su24-gregorio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/35\/revisions\/95"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.evergreen.edu\/foodagproject-su24-gregorio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=35"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Learning objective
