Published: September 2023

Stunting is a major health problem for toddlers in Indonesia. To prevent and overcome stunting in Indonesia, the central and regional governments have established various policies and programs to accelerate stunting reduction. This study aims to evaluate government policies and programs from existing studies on the government's strategy for tackling stunting cases in Indonesia. This study used a systematic review method on case study journals indexed by Sinta with the keyword "Stunting Prevention and Management" searched through the Google Scholar database with a range of 2019 - 2023. Based on the researcher's search, five journals met the following criteria. Evaluation based on input, process, and output parameters from case studies on preventing and controlling stunting in Indonesia. The results of a systematic review show that the process of preventing and overcoming stunting in Indonesia is quite good but not optimal. The Covid-19 pandemic is one of the factors causing the process of preventing and overcoming stunting in Indonesia not to be optimal. At the same time, other problems include limited human resources, financing, and inadequate facilities or facilities in several areas.

Published: September 2023

Twelve rice (Oryza sativa) genotypes and three Oryza glaberrima varieties were evaluated for resistance to AfRGM at Edozhigi in the Southern Guinea Savanna Zone of Nigeria during 2004 – 2007 wet seasons. TOS 14519 and FARO 37 (ITA 306) served as resistant and susceptible checks, respectively. Field experiments were laid out in a randomized complete block design with each rice variety replicated three times. Gall midge infestation was recorded from 20 hills of each test genotype per replication at 42 and 63 days after transplanting (DAT). Results showed that O. glaberrima genotypes (TOG 7442, TOG 5832 and TOG 6597) yields were not adversely affected by gall midge infestation levels. The results also gave a further confirmation that truly resistant genes have not been found in the 0. sativa genotypes

Published: September 2023

The efficacy of oils from eight indigenous plants against Angoumois grain moth, Sitotroga cerealella (Olivier) infesting rice (Oryza sativa L.) was investigated in the laboratory at ambient temperature and relative humidity (28±2°C, 75±5%RH). Oils extracted from the seeds of Piper guineense Schum and Thonn, Monodora myristica Dunal, Tectona grandis L, Ricinus communis L, Arachis hypogaea L, Elaeis guineensis, the bulb of Allium sativum L, and the rhizome of Zingiber officinale Roscoe, Jacq. were tested at 1- 3% concentration. Results showed that the oils significantly (P<0.05) prolonged developmental period for eggs, suppressed adult emergence and reduced longevity compared with effects on similar parameters in the control. P. guineense had the highest insecticidal activity by totally preventing adult emergence at 2% oil concentration. P. guineense, A. sativum and A. hypogaea were able to prevent adult emergence at 3% oil concentration. At all concentrations, not more than 10% adult emergence was recorded for M myristica, when compared with P. guineense showing that it also exhibited a high level of insecticidal activity. Adult emergence was also significantly higher (P<0.05) in the controls (46.7 and 48.3%) than in seeds treated with E. guineensis. Developmental period was longest (39.0 days) in seeds treated with M myristica at 3% concentration. The adults in the controls lived longer than those in treated seeds while females generally lived longer than the males. Seed germination was not affected by the oil treatments as the values were virtually at par with those obtained from untreated seeds.

Published: September 2023

Laboratory experiment was conducted during the year 2010 to evaluate the insecticidal
potentials of different parts of Kane plant, Anogeissus leiocaipus Guil and Perri (leaves, stem and root barks), compare their efficacy with conventional insecticide (pirimiphos-methyl) and determine the concentration/rate that is effective in the control of damage caused by Bambara groundnut weevil, Callosobruchus subinnotatus Pic. on stored grains of Barn bar a ground nut (Vigna subterranae (L.) Verd.). The different parts of the plant materials were tested in powdered form at three different concentrations viz: 1, 3 and 5g/100g grain while the synthetic insecticide was applied at the recommended rate of 0.25g/100gseed. The experiment was laid out in a completely randomized design with each treatment replicated three times. The result shows that root bark at 1g/100g grain was the most effective in reducing oviposition (10.78) thereby bringing about a significant reduction in adult emergence (4.72), number of emergence holes (4.72), mortality (4.69) at 3 days after treatment (DAT) and grain damage (3 .07) while it competed favorably with the synthetic insecticide (pirimiphos-methyl). A significantly higher mortality of 2.89 and 2.89 in the first generation progeny was recorded in the leaf treated grains at 60 and 90 DAT, respectively. All the three different plant parts did not exhibit any significant negative effect on viability of the seeds tested. The stem bark and the leaves proved equal in efficacy to the root lark only at the highest rate/concentrations of 5g/100g grain. Based on the results of the experiments conducted, applications of the root bark of A. lelocarpus at the rate of 1- 5g/100g grain is recommended for an effective, cheap and safe protection of V. subterranean grains against damage caused by C. subinnotatus in storage.

Published: September 2023

Field experiments were conducted during the 2008 and 2009 cropping seasons at the Teaching and Research Farm of the Federal University of Technology, Yola, to compare the efficacy of three selected plant extracts and cypermethrin (decis) in the Control of insect pests of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp) . The experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design (RCBD) replicated four times. The treatments included aqueous extracts of Tomato (5% concentration), Basil and Tobacco (3.3% concentration), cypermethrin (6.6 concentration, a synthetic pyrethroid) 10 EC at 0.8 I ha’ and an untreated control. The leaf of selected plants were crushed and pounded, then soaked overnight at 50 g, 33.3 g and 66.7 g of pounded mass per liter of water for tomato, basil and tobacco, respectively. The extracts were sprayed at 12, 14 and 16 weeks after sowing (WAS). Results show that over the two years, plots treated with plant extracts were similar in the number of infesting insects (0.75-2.75), leaf damage (0.6- 1.0), percentage pod damage (17.3-24.4%). These were comparable to number of insects (1.63), leaf damage (0.5), pod damage (15.9%) in cypermethrin treated plots, but significantly different from untreated check. Over the two years, grain yields in all the treated plots were significantly higher than yield recorded in the control (324.8 kg ha-1). It was concluded that all the tested plant extracts have potential to substitute synthetic insecticides for control of insect pests of cowpea.

Authors: UMAR Y.F.
Published: September 2023

Non-chemical materials that can be employed in the management of pests are referred to as green pesticides and include plant extracts, hormones, toxins of organic origin, microbials, entomophagous nematodes, secondary metabolites from micro-organisms, pheromones and genes used to transform crops to express resistance to pests as well as biodegradable synthetic and semi-synthetic products. Fixed plant oils extracted mechanically or chemically from the seeds of Neem, Castor oil, Moringa and Jatropha plants showed broad spectrum pesticidal activity against several insects and other members of the phylum Arthropoda. These fixed plant oils were thereafter transformed separately into emulsifiable concentrates by dissolving in organic solvents at the ratios of 95:5; 90:10; 80:20 and 75:25 oil/solvent respectively and thereafter, mixed with water at various concentrations to form their respective spray liquids. The three products namely the fixed plant oil, the emulsifiable concentrate and the spray liquid were pesticidal against a broad spectrum of insects and other arthropods and are characterized by ease of preparation, quick action, broad spectrum activity, absence of odour, long shelf life etc.

Published: September 2023

The accumulation of heavy metals by arthropods from their environments has been established, but there is the need to monitor the distribution of these metals in their tissues. The concentration of sodium (Na+), potassium (K+), magnesium (Mg2+),Zinc (Zn2+), iron (Fe2+), lead (Pb2+), copper (Cu2+) and chromium (Cr2+) in the antennae, head capsule and femur muscle of both the 6th instar and adult Zonocerus variegatus (L) as well as their host plants collected from five different locations in Abeokuta Nigeria (7°03’N03°19’E) was therefore determined. Of all the tissues examined, the femoral muscle recorded the highest concentrations of metals in both the 6th instars and adult Z. variegatus. However, the antennae recorded a low concentration of these metals. Concentrations of metal in the tissues of the Z variegatus were significantly affected by the locations. Z variegatus collected from NNPC mega station had higher Pb2+concentrations in all the tissues than those from the other locations. Z variegatus from the industrial estate had significantly higher (P<0.05) concentration of Cr2+ in the head and femoral muscle (0.045 mg/kg and 0.097 mg/kg respectively) while those from the mechanics village had significantly higher (P<0.05) Zn2+concentration in the head and femoral muscle (0.255 mg/kg and 0.311 mg/kg, respectively) compared to the other locations.

Published: September 2023

The insect fauna of University of Abuja was sampled with unbaited Bioconica and Nitsetrap from Oct. 19 to Nov. 30, 2012 (early dry season) and from Feb. x to Mar. y, 2013 (late dry season) to determine the occurrence and prevalence of insect species of veterinary importance. Efficiencies of the two traps were compared using the Student’s t statistic at tn = 0.05. Thirteen insect species in eight Families and five Orders were caught in the early dry season compared with seven species in five Families and two Orders in the late dry season. The Order Diptera had the highest representation (six Families) and the most abundant species was Stomoxys calcitrans (57.6 and 57.2 % of the total collections in early and late dry season, respectively); other dipterous species collected were Tabanus, Stomoxys, Chrysops Culicoides. Overall, Bioconical trap was more efficient than Nitse trap (x vs. y trapped insects, to.< 0.05). The roles of the dipterous insects in disease transmission and the repercussions to both man and livestock were discussed. The use of traps as a method of controlling insect population( s) and proper methods of waste disposal were recommended to evade health hazards linked to these insects.

Published: September 2023

Insecticide-treated bed nets (ITNs) is currently being rigorously promoted as a tool for malaria control. A study was conducted in five residential areas, namely, GRA, High Level, North Bank, Wadata, and Wurukum, of Makurdi to investigate the pattern of, and barriers against usage of ITNs. On-the-spot inspection, questionnaires and household checklist was employed to study household, mosquito net ownership and usage and mosquito control practices of the 478 households selected for the study. The results show a ratio of three adults to one child in the sampled population; deployment of mosquito nets in just 105 (21.9 %) of the households; significantly higher (P<0.05) bed net ownership in North Bank than in other residential areas; 11.2% and 6.2% of the children sleeping under untreated and insecticide-treated mosquito nets, respectively. High night temperature (27.0 % of the respondents) followed by high cost of mosquito nets (24.9%) were the main reasons for not owning and/or using nets of any kind. Only 13.3% of the households benefited from government’s :free distribution of mosquito nets while a significant proportion (80.0%) bought nets from the open market. A high proportion (89%) of the households applied insecticides indoor to control mosquito, this was significantly higher (P < 0.05) compared with other mosquito control measures. This study justifies the need to evaluate the current mosquito net distribution strategy and explore better cost-effective methods of distribution that will address emerging mosquito net utilization challenges.

Published: September 2023

The efficacy of five local spices, namely – Hot pepper (Capsicum annum L.), Black pepper (Piper guinense Schum and Thonn), Sweet basil (Occimum canum Sim), African nut-meg (Monodora myristiea Dunal), and Ginger (Zingiber officianale Ross) with conventional insecticide Dichlorvos against the D. maculatus was studied under ambient laboratory conditions. The plant parts were pulverized into powders and applied at the rate of 1.0,2.0 and 3 .Ogper 25g of disinfected tilapia fish. The same amount offish was treated with 5ml of 1.0,2.0 and 3.0 percent solution of conventional insecticide (Dichlorvos) and air dried for 2hrs. Ten newly hatched 1st instar larvae (24hrs old) of D. maculatus were introduced into each powdered dried fish in separate beakers. The same numbers of larvae were also introduced to untreated dried fish to serve as control. Observations on the mortality and developments were recorded daily until the larvae pupated. Each of the treated smoked fish showed significant (P<0.05) effect on the larval mortality and development when compared with the control. The P guinense was as efficacious as Dichlorvos in killing all the larvae (100%) at all concentrations before pupation. O. canum gave the second best mortality results (50.00,63.33 and 100%), while the other three spices resulted in less than 50% mortalities at all the rates of application. The spice powders were also observed to have extended the larval developmental period, where larval duration was extended from a mean 30.50days in the control to up to 53.83days when treated with O. canum. These observations suggested that the spices tested are effective in the control of D. maculatus.

Published: September 2023

Stress analysis using SolidWorks Simulation is a powerful tool for predicting the behaviour of components and structures under various loading conditions. The methodology involves creating a 3D model of the component, assigning material properties, defining boundary conditions, meshing, setting up the analysis, and analysing the results. SolidWorks Simulation includes a wide range of analysis types, such as static, dynamic, and thermal, and provides a comprehensive suite of tools to visualize and analyse the results. The paper focusses on performing Solidworks simulation studies and hence comparing the results with the hand calculated results. The paper is prepared based on the second-year diploma project, in which the students were taught the basics of stress analysis and use of Solidworks 2021 software for performing stress analysis on bars and beams subjected to axial, bending, torsion and combined loads. However, in this paper only bending related problem has been discussed. The concept of stress analysis was also taught to the students and hence an example related to stress concentration has also been discussed. The results of the comparison reveal that the percentage variation between the hand calculated, and simulation results is less than 1%.

Solidarity and the Bond of Nationality in Union Citizenship Law
Authors: Hyltén-Cavallius Katarina
Published: September 2023

While solidarity as an ideal in the legal relationship between a host Member State and the non-national Union citizen has all but vanished from the discourse of EU free movement law, it has resurged in another line of case law concerning Union citizenship. The relationship between the Member States and their own nationals is at the centre of the case law on loss of Union citizenship rights under Article 20 TFEU. The bond of nationality between the individual and the state is there designated as one of ‘solidarity’ and ‘good faith’. This article argues that solidarity, as an ideal, is also relevant for understanding the case law dealing with returning, or naturalising Union citizens who have made use of freedom of movement under Article 21 TFEU. The article provides a discussion on the various expressions of solidarity as a component of the ideal bond of nationality between a Union citizen and their home Member State. Conclusively, it is argued that the meaning of the bond of nationality will continue to develop together with the legal evolution of Union citizenship.

After having stressed the multifaceted nature of the concept of solidarity in the EU legal order, Section 2 discusses the possible interactions this concept may have with loyalty in securing the constitutional framework of the Union. Section 3 traces the ways in which loyalty and solidarity may interact in crisis scenarios. The major findings of the analysis are summarized in Section 5.
EU Rulemaking in Response to Crisis: the Emergence of the Principle of Energy Solidarity and its Use
Authors: Bergström Carl-Fredrik
Published: September 2023

This article presents an overview of the legal development in the energy market, within the general EU internal market, and focuses on the emergence of the principle of energy solidarity. The process has been premised on the inclusion of Article 194 TFEU in 2009 and the resulting shift of legal basis, from Article 114 TFEU. But the significant stages are more recent. The analysis takes its starting point in the ruling by the EU Court of Justice (Grand Chamber) in Case C-848/19 P, where the Court declared the existence of a principle of energy solidarity that both EU institutions and Member States must take into account in the normal operation of the internal market. Then, the article proceeds with an empirical assessment how that ruling has been exploited by the EU Commission and Legislature. The overall conclusion is that the principle defined by the Court in the context of Article 194 TFEU has enabled the EU Legislature to push the confines of its competences and, in that way, to respond to the energy crisis.

Healthy school conditions play an important role in increasing student interest in learning. This research focuses on efforts that can be made by schools in maintaining healthy conditions, especially for third grade students. Based on the literature study, it was found that healthy schools have certain characteristics such as a clean learning environment, good air circulation, and adequate hand washing and sanitation facilities. School readiness in creating a healthy school culture can be seen from the active role of the school in educating students about the importance of health, involving parents of students in school health programs, and the involvement of school committees in monitoring and evaluation. In addition, the provision of facilities and hygiene principles is also important to be applied in order to maintain the health of students. Thus, efforts to maintain healthy school conditions can improve the quality of education and increase students' interest in learning in class III.

The development in computer vision has aided drivers in the form of automatic self-driving cars etc. The accidents are caused by driver's exhaustion and drowsiness about 20%. Its carriages a dangerous issue for which numerous methods were proposed. However, they are not appropriate for real-time implementation. The major encounters confronted by these approaches are forcefulness to handle dissimilarity in human face and lightning conditions. Our intention is to implement a smart operating system that can lower the rate of road accidents considerably. This method enables us to find driver's face features like eye closure percentage, eye-mouth aspect ratios, blink rate, yawning, head movement, etc. In this classification, the driver is uninterruptedly observed by using a webcam. The car driver’s facial features along with the eye movements are observed using a cascade classifier. Eye images are pull out and fed to Custom designed Convolutional Neural Network for categorizing whether both left and right eye are closed. Based on the sorting, the eye closure score is considered. Upon finding that the driver is being detected drowsy that a high alarm will be raised.

We aimed to solve first-order differential equations using two novel techniques: the harmonic mean and the cubic mean of Euler' s modified approach for fuzzy primary value in this research proposal. We present a new formulation of Euler' s classic approach based on Zadeh' s extension concept to address this dependency issue in a fuzzy situation. In the literature, numerical approaches for solving differential equations with fuzzy main values often disregard this issue. With a few examples, we show how our approach outperforms more traditional fuzzy approaches based on Euler' s method.

Business has become a routine that has the highest percentage of interest to the public at this time. This digitalization era is one of the facilities to facilitate businesses in running their businesses. However, the facility does not rule out the possibility for business actors to cheat in their business, bearing in mind the objective of the business is to seek maximum profits. The purpose of business by obtaining the maximum profit is permitted, but business actors continue to do business in a fair manner and the products produced are prohibited from harming consumers and the most important thing is that businesses can apply product quality standards that are legalized by BPOM. However, business operators are often found intentionally circulating their products, especially drugs, food and beverage products, and cosmetics that do not yet have a BPOM permit. The fraudulent behavior of the business actor must be immediately stopped with discipline and tightening regarding the regulation of product quality standards. The purpose of this research, specifically to find and understand product quality standards that are applied in Indonesia and the role of BPOM as a drug and food control agency to create a climate of good consumer protection in Indonesia. In general, to deepen science, especially in law of consumer protection. The research of method is the normative juridical method.

El presente trabajo de investigación tiene como tema “metodologías activas para el aprendizaje significativo”. A pesar del corto tiempo que tiene esta temática, se ha encontrado abundantes trabajos sobre la misma, pero en la práctica de acuerdo con las investigaciones desarrolladas es poca la gestión de implementación de estrategias activas que se realiza en el aula. Dentro de las metodologías activas encontramos: el trabajo colaborativo, el aprendizaje basado en proyectos y en problemas, la gamificación, el aula invertida, debates, etc. Todas estas técnicas motivan al estudiante a una participación constante durante el proceso de aprendizaje, generando un conocimiento significativo, el cual sólo se alcanza cuando el educando es involucrado. El objetivo de este estudio fue establecer la relación entre las metodologías activas y el aprendizaje significativo. La metodología aplicada en este artículo fue con enfoque cuantitativo, con diseño no experimental de forma transversal correlacional, las fuentes para la recolección de información fue una encuesta de tipo likert de 10 preguntas, la misma que fue sometida a la prueba de fiabilidad de alfa de cronbach con un 0,88 de confiabilidad, los docentes encuestados fueron 66 como muestra de un universo de 201. El resultado arrojado de esta investigación corrobora que sí hay influencia directa entre las estrategias activas y el aprendizaje significativo. Concluyendo que cuando se aplican metodologías activas se logra que los alumnos puedan construir su propio aprendizaje, existiendo una significancia entre la variable independiente y la dependiente, permitiendo que el trabajo docente sea de alta calidad. El área general de este estudio es en educación; y el área específica es pedagogía y didáctica.

Published: September 2023

Stochastic networks are one of the most prevalent types of networks these days. Therefore, many researchers directed to study them and summarize the essential points and challenges they face in developing these types of networks, especially optimal route path selection. In this paper, a solution to this problem was addressed using the evolutionary algorithm ACO (Ant Colony Optimization), where the path with the lowest cost was obtained according to several scenarios studied in the research, which consider the fact that, the traffic information in the network is available either in a static or in a dynamic form in real-time. The proposed method presented contributions for real networks that can be used in many applications. The results are essential in solving the problem of choosing the optimal route. Also, they can be applied to various scenarios of the stochastic networks that exist in real life. Optimization improves logistics efficiency, which contributes to sustainability by minimizing fuel consumption, reducing emissions, and conserving resources.
