A. Introduction 60 minutes The lesson deals with the maintenance of farm facilities. It includes cleaning and
Panimula repairing of defective farm tools, implements and equipment.

Installation of Preventive Structure

It has been observed that as we go on our horticultural work we always

experience the occurrence of inclement weather. Before it is too late, think of
anything that you can do to safeguard your crops, tools and other facilities. We
should not only focus our attention for occurrence of inclement weather but we
have to consider also other elements that may cause loss or damage to our property
(ex. astray animals, fire and thieves).

Let’s take a look into our facilities, such as; nursery shed, storage house, and farm
shops. Examine their physical conditions (roofing, sidings, or floorings). Can they
survive any disaster that may occur? Are the things inside safe? If not, what
preventive structures should you undertake?

Below is a table indicating the facilities physical conditions, possible,

calamities or disaster that may occur and the suggested preventive
structures or contingency measures to be undertaken.

conditions contingency measure
