Authors: De Paula Júnior Rogério Augusto , Meneguelli Fialho Thainara
Published: April 2023

Introdução: A campanha de vacinação antirrábica é parte do programa nacional de profilaxia da raiva e possibilitou a redução da incidência da raiva humana por meio da eliminação do ciclo urbano de transmissão. Nos últimos anos a transmissão por morcegos e animais silvestres tem adquirido importância epidemiológica e a redução das taxas de cobertura de vacinação de cães pode acarretar o recrudescimento do ciclo urbano de transmissão. Relato de experiência: Relata a experiência da organização das atividades da campanha de vacinação antirrábica no município de Colatina no ano de 2020. Realizou-se o planejamento das ações compreendendo o ambiente institucional e elaborando formulários de monitoramento de procedimentos que possibilitaram a criação de indicadores. Comparativamente ao ano de 2018 verificou-se, no ano de 2020, o aumento da cobertura de vacinação em 57% na área rural do município e a redução no perímetro urbano (-17%). Conclusão: Os indicadores elaborados permitem o acompanhamento e planejamento das atividades para os anos posteriores. Recomenda-se traçar estratégias que possibilitem maior adesão à vacinação animal na área urbana do município e que as atividades das campanhas de vacinação antirrábica sejam realizadas entre os meses de junho e setembro, pois são meses de maior probabilidade de clima seco, o que favorece o encaminhamento da totalidade de animais vacinados ao Programa Nacional de Imunização em tempo hábil.

Authors: Pujab Rahab
Published: April 2023

Purpose: The study sought to investigate the challenges and the influence of offering equal job opportunities to people with disabilities in Ghana.

Methodology: The study adopted a desktop methodology. Desk research refers to secondary data or that which can be collected without fieldwork. Desk research is basically involved in collecting data from existing resources hence it is often considered a low-cost technique as compared to field research, as the main cost is involved in the executive’s time, telephone charges and directories. Thus, the study relied on already published studies, reports and statistics. This secondary data was easily accessed through online journals and library

Results: The results revealed that in terms of supply, education emerged as a key aspect that employers looked at when it came to the employment of PWDs. Thus, it was seen as advantageous for PWDs to seek post-secondary and vocational education to enable them to access the labour market. Internships were also seen as a way for PWDs to gain relevant work experience and access the labour market. However, the transition rates into employment were quite low. Type of disability had a very strong relationship to the employment of PWDs. It was seen to negatively influence the employment of PWDs as HR personnel were more inclined to employ persons with physical disabilities than other types of disability. In conclusion employment of PWDs in the human resource sector was predicted by legislation, supply and type of disability

Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: This study used virtue theory, the socio-economic theory of compliance and the Keynesian theory of employment. These theories may be used to anchor future studies in the employment sector. The study will benefit many stakeholders.  The top management of companies in the country will also use the study findings to improve the employment sector and ensure high and stable performance in all their activities and programs. It is expected that the adoption of effective employment methods will help to improve efficiency in their major operations and activities. The study results will also benefit other stakeholders such as the policy makers as well as researchers and scholars from different parts of the world. Scholars may attempt to bridge the conceptual and contextual gaps identified in this study.
Dress Reform and Fashion
Authors: Zhang Abby , Nunn Tessa
Published: April 2023

From the early 1820s through the mid-1850s, a dress reform movement to emancipate women from tight-lacing and corsets became prominent. Living in the prevailing gender hierarchy, male reformers and female authors took different approaches to express their arguments and participate in the public discourse. Although women’s clothing may have started as the instrument of misogynistic fetish, it has also become a medium to advocate women’s agency when women take control. Society’s expectation on how female members should appear remains prevalent in modern days.

Systematic Objectification of Eastern Women in Western Society: A Case Study of ‘The Optimist’ by Bina Shah
Authors: Lashari Sajid
Published: April 2023

Patriarchy is deeply rooted in all societies of the world and many sociological, political and religious reasons are behind this ideology. This was not highlighted by western writers in the past but it exists in the western modern world is also as presented by Loius Tyson (2006). He has claimed that women are kept oppressed economically, politically, socially and psychologically by patriarchy, moreover, women are considered as the ‘other’, therefore objectified and marginalized. The writings of eastern writers like the short story ‘The Optimist’ written by Bina Shah verifies the claims of Tyson. The narrated story proves that oppression of women is not the issue of eastern western society but it is a universal problem that has strong roots in the societies of the men dominating societies. Pakistani writers have always tried to expose such ideologies through their writings, which allegedly justify the dominance of men over women. Human relations are reciprocal and cannot be directed from one side. The approach employed is qualitative with techniques of textual and thematic analysis keeping claims in mind, presented by Lois Tyson in his book Critical Theory Today. It was found, through the analysis of the story, that women are oppressed economically, politically, socially, and psychologically and they are treated as the ‘other’: objectified and marginalized, by men not only in the east but all over the world. However, the element of ‘revolt against biased ideologies’ is also very significant through the rebellious behavior of the character and emphasizes bringing change in the societies.

Published: April 2023

This study aimed to identify the factors affecting farmers’ perception of climate change and the adoption of Soil and Water Conservation (SWC) measures as a mitigation strategy for climate change. From the existing literature review, the study has identified the factors that potentially influence the adoption of climate mitigation and adaptation technologies. The binary logit model was employed using survey data collected from the Agra district of Uttar Pradesh during the year 2018-19. Results show that about 60 per cent of households had a clear perception of climate change, and age, education, membership of groups, mass media exposure, and extension agency contacts were key influencing factors in farmers’ perception of climate change. Similarly, education, occupation, mass media exposure, awareness of climate change consequences, climate change perception, and attitude of farmers increase the probability of adopting soil and water conservation measures by the farmers in their fields. Therefore, the study results have significant implications for policies and campaigns promoting adopting climate-smart technologies to make the agricultural system more resilient to climate change.

Authors: Ray Poulami , Das Bhagirath
Published: April 2023

The study was conducted in West Tripura district of Tripura to examine the utilization and repayment of farm loans obtained by borrowers based on a survey done in 2020.The development of agriculture depends on farmers receiving adequate and timely loans. Purposive multi-stage random sampling was used to pick 120 farmers and 20 lenders for a comprehensive investigation. The majority of the sample beneficiaries availed of crop loans (82.5%) as compared to allied activities loans (17.5%) and it was observed that marginal and small farmers diverted a portion of the loan as compared to medium farmers. The extent of repayment of loans by the medium farmers was higher than the small and marginal farmers. To improve the utilization and repayment pattern of credit by farm households, the Bank Field Officers need to conduct post-credit supervision to reduce credit diversion to unproductive uses and disbursement of the majority of the loan in kind form may be used.

Published: April 2023

The study was conducted in the hills and valley regions of Manipur with the objectives of assessing the level of technical efficiency and determining the factors influencing the technical inefficiency of pineapple production in the state during the year 2022-23. A total of 240 farmers were interviewed in person to gather primary data. A stochastic frontier technique was used in the study to achieve the stated objectives. Results showed that pineapple production was a profitable business. However, the study’s efficiency score of 0.603 indicated that farmers were operating inefficiently. The estimated stochastic production frontier model showed an adverse association between the cost of the sapling, transportation, fertilizer, and manure to the efficiency of pineapple production. According to the technical inefficiency effect model, the only factors that positively explained the technical inefficiency in pineapple production were the farmers’ age and household size while factors like education, years of farming experience, credit availability, and contact with extension agents had a negative effect. Therefore, the study concludes that attracting youth in agriculture, extension services, and production inputs availability has to give due attention to augment the effectiveness of pineapple production across the state and nation as a whole.

Published: April 2023

When assessing farmers’ predispositions and developing a strategy for extension work in the region, the attitude of farmers toward conservation agriculture is a crucial consideration. The purpose of this study was to develop a valid and reliable instrument for assessing farmers’ attitudes toward conservation agriculture. The scale product method is used to construct the scale. It is a hybrid of the Likert and Thurstone techniques. The study was conducted in March 2022. On a 5-point scale, 65 judges evaluated 25 statements. Finally, 18 statements including 14 positive statements and 4 negative statements were chosen to build a scale that would assess the attitude of farmers towards conservation agriculture. The scale was found reliable, with the reliability coefficient (r) (Guttman split-half Coefficient and Spearman-Brown Coefficient Equal Length) determined to be 0.917. The scale’s validity was evaluated using expert judgement. Employing the scale in research will aid in knowing farmers’ attitudes about conservation agriculture.

Використання суміші супутньо-пластової води і пробіотичних препаратів як основного добрива на посівах сільськогосподарських культур
Authors: Pysarenko Pavlo , Samoilik Maryna , Dychenko Oksana , Tsova Yurii
Published: April 2023

Мета. Метою роботи є визначення можливостей використання суміші супутньо-пластової води (СПВ) та пробіотичних препаратів як основного добрива на посівах сільськогосподарських культур.

Результати. Дослідження щодо формування інноваційних удобрювальних засобів на основі біологічних методів – СПВ (при нормах внесення 900–2400 л/га) та пробіотику (100 л/га, 10 % розведення) проводили протягом 2016–2021 рр. Кращим варіантом за роки досліджень виявилася технологія комплексного використання пробіотику 100 л/га (10 % розведення) та СПВ 900 л/га, при цьому урожайність пшениці озимої становила 51,3 ц/га, що на 28,9 % вище за контроль. Установлено, що найкращою дозою СПВ у цій суміші на посівах кукурудзи також є 900 л/га та пробіотик 100 л/га (10 % розведення), що дозволило отримати усереднену прибавку врожаю за роки досліджень у розмірі 24,3 % порівняно з контролем. Це пояснюється тим, що при цих концентраціях СПВ та пробіотику складаються сприятливі умови для життєдіяльності цілого ряду ґрунтових мікроорганізмів, зокрема стимулюється ріст і розвиток мікроскопічних грибів і целюлозоруйнівних мікроорганізмів, які беруть участь у розкладанні пожнивних решток. Кількість амоніфікуючих та азотфіксуючих бактерій при використанні СПВ та пробіотику збільшується відразу після внесення, потім протягом наступних місяців їх чисельність вирівнюється до рівня контролю. Використання доз СПВ більше 1200 л/га призводить до зменшення цих груп бактерій. Також установлено відсутність негативного впливу суміші СПВ та пробіотику на структуру ґрунту при внесенні їх у певних дозах СПВ – від 600 до 1200 л/га, пробіотику у дозі 100 л/га (10 % розведення). Таким чином, одержані результати досліджень дають можливість у подальшому використовувати суміші СПВ та пробіотичних препаратів як основного добрива на посівах сільськогосподарських культур.

Наукова новизна. Визначено, що використання суміші пробіотичних препаратів і СПВ у якості основного добрива сприяє оптимізації мікробного ценозу ґрунту та формуванню сталих агросистем.

Практична цінність. Запропоновано інноваційний екологоорієнтований метод удобрення сільськогосподарських культур на основі використання суміші пробіотичних препаратів і СПВ, що дозволяє підвищити їх урожайність і якість сільськогосподарської продукції при сталому функціонуванні агроекосистем.

Even though the learning environment is still an online class, the implementation of the extensive speaking project is good and also in accordance with the actual method. In a semester, students work on two types of projects: group projects and individual projects. The lecturer allows students to choose their own topics, and students' project-related activities are conducted more outside of the classroom. Students' learning experiences in implementing large speaking projects were also reflected in numerous indicators in this study. These indicators include benefits such as strengthening students' public speaking skills and assisting them in being more critical thinkers, and also increased motivation and speaking fluency. Extensive speaking projects can contribute to developing students' abilities to be more creative, independent, collaborative, communicative, and technological. The project can also promote vocabulary knowledge, practice pronunciation, acquaint students with conveying ideas by extending the topic, and build students' self-confidence in the area of oral communication. As a result, they will be able to speak effectively and openly. The other indicator is the difficulties that students face in conducting extensive speaking projects, such as online learning, which renders the method less than optimally implemented.
