The speakers and facilitators of the School of Management's Knowledge Management Initiatives 

The UP Mindanao School of Management (SOM) delivered its "Knowledge Management Initiatives," a lecture forum, online on March 18, 2024. The forum discussed cacao farming in Davao, the resources in Mt. Apo Natural Park, and mango production in Samal Island.

Instructor Francis Levi Durano presented their team's research on the "Technical efficiency of cocoa farms at varying elevation levels in Davao City, Philippines: Implications to sustainable upland farming systems." Cocoa is a high-value crop in the Philippines, and their findings showed that increased input costs and the number of trees per hectare are key factors in production efficiency. Also, older and more developed farms and a farmer with a family contribute to farm efficiency. However, farms with higher elevations and older farmers are prone to inefficiency. He stated that the study contributes to Sustainable Development Goal #12, Sustainable Production and Consumption, and SDG #15, Life on Land.
