IV. Creating. Read the given example carefully and come up with your own ESTIMATION of the different farm inputs based on this
land area = 3 hectares. Refer to the given example below. (6 points each)

Example:
Mang Jose has 5 hectares of land. One day, he decided to plant mango trees on this vast land. So he planned to buy the
following farm inputs: 250 mango seeds, 100 kl. Fertilizers, 100 kl. Pesticides/Insecticides, 50 tons of water from land preparation
until final harvesting. He then hired 20 workers, with a salary of ₱350.00 per day. He hired them for 6 months until such time, the
mango trees are old enough to stand on their own.
