Extracting content from .txt files in Laravel php framework

I am relatively new to Laravel and am building an online taxonomic guide to coral species. Each of 300 species will have a separate page which in turn will show images and have a descriptive section (1-2 paragraphs long). In the past I have handled chunks of text as an entry in a csv file which I upload to phpMyAdmin. One problem however is that a .csv file with 300 entries of 1-2 paragraphs each is very slow to scroll through in excel.

My question is: in this case is it better to have description in separate .txt files, include the .txt files in phpMyAdmin and then write a script to call each text file?

Advice on how to do this in Laravel is most appreciated!

If I were you, I would ditch the idea of managing this data outside of your system.

Laravel comes with a good enough authentication system, so why not create a protected page in which you can update the data directly to the database? Take a look at this simple CRUD project. CRUD stands for create, replace, update, and delete.
