Introduction
In recent years, the wheat flour industry the Philippines has been offering a diversified product range from bread to noodles, pasta, biscuits and other baked products, resulting to a greater need for employment so more can have jobs. The industry is growing at fast rate due to increase in population and purchase power, tastes and preference change. And the supply of feeds from flour by-product as well as availability of cheap noodles grows. Four of the largest millers on the Philippines alone comprise the bulk of potential market for suppliers of fortificants (Vitamin A and Iron), as well as equipments or machineries, and labor in fortification. Over the past few years, different kinds of crisis or problems are reported and felt here in the Philippines and in other parts of the world, one of which is Health Problem or Malnutrition. Today, we are experiencing malnutrition. Malnutrition is the condition that results from taking an unbalanced diet in which certain nutrients are lacking, in excess, or in the wrong proportion the World Health Organization cities malnutrition as the greatest single threat to the world’s public health. Testing and studies show that cassava and potato have an ability to become flour. But it has poor availability because it is tropical root crop. So we decided to make a study about Banana. This study will help us to find the way that the flour or banana flour can be a great help to us. There’s so many fruit in the world and each of them have their uses. And the example of this is BANANA.

    After various testing performed by various scientists and experts it “is clearly evident, GM technology can quadruple its maize output, more than triple sweet potato output and increase banana output by eight times” (Wambugu 84). With this much crop increases multiplied by all farms throughout the world mankind can cause world hunger to disappear and replace it with excess food so that none shall have to worry about starving or going hungry ever again. While there are some people who voice their concerns over the safety of genetically modified foods they can be assured that “rigorous testing takes place to ensure GM foods are safe” (Wambugu 82) and as a result “there is no evidence that genetically engineered foods currently on the market pose any human health concern or that they are any less safe than those foods produced through traditional breeding” (Hammerstrom 122). This means that any potential health risks are discovered and rectified before the food is even close to going on the shelves for consumers to purchase. With these potential benefits mixed with the genuine feasibility of achievement they all hold shows that taking the risks involved will be well worth…

The primary experimenter (PE ') used 20 stimulus words for the study. To test the interference effect, 5 articles/reading materials were prepared for the experimental group. The participants were tasked to recall as many words as they can from the list of 20 stimulus words until they are signaled to stop. It was predicted that intervention does have an effect on the ability to recall words but results indicated that the number of words recalled were not significantly different between reading five articles after the stimulus was presented and recalling without any interference.…

The country is the eight largest producer of rice in the world, accounting for 2.8% of global rice production. In 2010, nearly 15.7 million metric tons of palay were produced, which accounted for 21.86% of gross value added in agriculture and 2.37% of GNP.
