Impact of external factors on demand and supply in air transport in 2020-2021
Authors: Kobaszyńska-Twardowska Anna , Wantuła Monika , Kinowski Artur
Published: February 2023

The efficient functioning of the air transport system depends on many external factors, such as weather, economic crises, and epidemiological threats. Air operations performed in 2020-2021 at FIR Warszawa were analyzed and compared to 2019. A significant decrease in take-offs and landings was shown. The stability of the transport offer is one of the pillars of the high demand for transport services. Therefore, the legal regulations introduced at that time have been analyzed. Then their impact on the demand and the supply in the aviation market has been assessed. The destructive influence of the activities undertaken in this period on aviation has been demonstrated. Inductive inference on FIR Warszawa data has been carried out. The conclusions have been drawn. Statistics of domestic and international take-offs and landings for regular and non-scheduled flights in Poland in 2019-2021 have been presented. Statistical methods were used to achieve the goal. The analysis of legal acts, regulations, and documents introduced for regulating air operations in the analyzed years, as well as deductive and inductive reasoning, let to indicate and question the legitimacy of the actions taken in this area at that time. The conclusions confirm the thesis by Willie Walsh, former president of the International Airlines Group (IAG), that uncoordinated transport restrictions implemented separately by European countries have created uncertainty in potential passengers and led to losses and deficiencies in bookings in the aviation industry.

Published: February 2023

Experiment was conducted to evaluate the potential of selected plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) towards enhancement of growth and yield of coriander crop (Coriandrum sativum L. cv Acr-1) under semi-arid condition in India. Six PGPR isolates showing in-vitro indole acetic acid production and tricalcium phosphate solubilization were the prime targets. These rhizobacterial isolates were evaluated for their ability to promote growth and yield of coriander under open field conditions. Highest seedling vigour index was recorded for B. aerophilus Cor-15 (1178.50) followed by B. megaterium (1125.20) and minimum was observed with control. The maximum total chlorophyll content was assayed with B. subtilis NRCSS-I which was 1.38 mg/g f wt and 1.30 mg/g f wt at 45 and 90 DAS respectively. The highest Pox activity was recorded with B. megaterium ISB28 (4.31 IU/min/g) in coriander shoot tissues at 90 DAS followed by B. aerophilus cor-15. At harvest stage, maximum plant height was recorded with B. aerophilus Cor-15 (84.36cm) which was at par with B. megaterium (82.90 cm). Coriander seed yield ranged from 1128.80 to 1650.94 kg/ha and the maxmum seed yield of 1650.94 kg/ha was recorded with B. aerophilus Cor-15 being at par with B. subtilis strains and the minimum in control. Maximum essential oil yield was recorded with B. megaterium ISB-28 (5.86 l/ha) followed by B. aerophilus Cor-15 (4.64 l/ha) and least was observed with control (3.09 l/ha).

Published: February 2023

The present investigation was carried out to characterize 22 genotypes of marigold (Tagetes erecta L.) with RAPD (randomly amplified polymorphic DNA) markers. A total of 26 RAPD markers were utilized for assessment of genetic divergence in marigold which amplified a total of 241 amplicons, out of which 238 (98.80%) were found polymorphic. The average number of amplicon per primer was 9.27. The Jaccard's similarity coefficient ranged from0.18 to 0.80. The mean values of polymorphic information content (PIC), resolving power (RP) and marker index (MI) of RAPD primers were 0.38, 8.36 and 3.44 respectively. Cluster analysis was done by unweighted pair group method for arithmetic average (UPGMA) and Principal Component analysis (PCA) was also done for the grouping of genotypes. The broad range of Jaccard's similarity coefficient observed for the genotypic data generated suggest the wide genetic base for marigold genotypes which will be effectively explored for future breeding programmes.
Cotton leaf curl virus disease (CLCuVD) predictive model based on environmental variables
Authors: BUTTAR DALJEET SINGH , SINGH PRITPAL
Published: February 2023

Cotton (Gossypium spp) is one of the most important cash crops in India. The productivity of cotton in the last decade has suffered a great set back due to Cotton leaf curl virus disease (CLCuVD) in Indian Punjab. It has devastated cotton production during the past couples of decades or so causing serious problems in its management. This study, therefore, was initiated to develop a disease predictive model to predict epidemiological factors conducive for disease spread/ incidence. Four years data of CLCuVD incidence, whitefly population density, and environmental variables were collected for the development of a predictive model from the experiments conducted at Punjab Agricultural University, Regional Station, Faridkot, Punjab (India). A close relationship was observed between CLCuVD incidence and whitefly population. A predictive model based the on data (2010-2013) of CLCuVD incidence, whitefly population density, and environmental variables was developed (Y=253.1-11.8* Min T + 3.49 Max T+0.682* Min RH-1.13* Max RH-0.20 RF+1.65* WF popn. ; R2=0.62). The model so developed was validated for the year (2014). Minimum temperature has significant negative and minimum relative humidity along with vector has significant positive, contribution towards the appearance of disease. So if the minimum temperature in the months of June and July is less than 260C to 280C and minimum relative humidity is more than 50%, then chance of appearance of CLCuVD is maximum. There was a moderate difference between the slope of observed and predicted values (5.85 and 6.68) with R2 of 0.82 and 0.78, respectively. It was envisaged that the model would be helpful in forecasting the disease to decide the correct timing of pesticide application, in order to manage CLCuVD effectively.

Published: February 2023

The effect of foliar sprays of plant growth regulators (PGRs), viz. NAA (10, 15 and 20 ppm), GA3 (50, 75 and 100 ppm) and kinetin (10, 15 and 20 ppm) at 25 and 35 DAS was evaluated on growth, yield and seed quality attributes in garden pea (Pisum sativum var Hortense) cv. Pusa Pragati under field condition. Plant morphology was affected by spray of the three PGRs at vegetative stage. Plant height increased with increase in concentration of GA3 and kinetin, albeit NAA. However, GA3 did not influence the number of primary branches/plant, which were significantly increased by kinetin and NAA. GA3 had a profound effect on hastening the initiation of flowering by 3-5 days over water sprayed control, whereas other plant growth regulators did not affect the days to flowering. The seed quality parameters did not increase significantly on increasing the concentration of PGRs except seedling length and vigour index I. Application of GA3 led to best quality of harvested seed. Protein, N, P, Cu, Fe and Mn content of seeds increased with increase in concentration of kinetin and NAA. GA3 had no significant effect on nitrogen and crude protein content of seed but markedly increased K, Cu, Fe and Mn content. Maximum P content in seed was observed in plants sprayed with NAA. No significant change was observed in Zn content with either plant growth regulator.

Published: February 2023

A three year fixed plot field experiment was conducted during rabi seasons of 2011 to 2014 at Research Farm of ICAR Research Complex for NEH Region, Sikkim Centre to study the effect of organic mulches and vermicompost on productivity, profitability and energetics of mustard under popcorn (Zea mays everta)-mustard (Brassica campestris) cropping system. The results revealed that crop residue and/or forest litter mulching exhibited significant effect on yield attributes, yields, economics and energetics of mustard. Among the mulches, application of tree leaf mulch (TLM) @ 5 t/ha recorded the significantly higher seed yield (1.05 t/ha), net returns (19.86×103 `rs./ha) and net rupees per rupees invested (NRPRI) (1.87) over other mulching materials including control. Systematic energy analysis also showed that the maximum values of gross energy output (59.69 GJ/ha) and net energy output (52.85 GJ/ha) was recorded with TLM @ 5 t/ha, whereas energy productivity (0.54 kg/MJ) was higher with rice residue mulch (RRM) @ 5 t/ha followed by maize residue mulch (MRM) @ 5 t/ha. Among the different levels of vermicompost (VC), application of VC @ 1.5 t/ha recorded the highest seed yield (1.05 t/ha) and net return (15.38 × 103 rs./ha) followed by VC @ 1.0 t/ha and control (no vermicompost). However, NRPRI was higher with VC @ 1.0 t/ha (1.62) followed by VC @ 1.5 t/ha. With regards to the energy budgeting, among the various levels of VC, application of VC @ 1.5 t/ha recorded 2.1% and 18.9% higher energy use efficiency (EUE) over VC @ 1.0 t/ha and control, respectively.

Published: February 2023

Fifty genotypes of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) were evaluated to estimate for drought tolerance as well as genetic variability among the selected chickpea genotypes for quantitative characters under normal and drought conditions. A significant variation was observed for control and drought treatments for most of the investigated characters. Under moisture stress treatment, there was sufficient decrease in the mean of most of the characters under study. The two way analysis of variance was carried out for all the characters for irrigated and under drought. The mean sum of square was highly significant for all the characters under study indicating significant variability in the materials. The analysisof variance for irrigated and drought conditions revealed that the differences among the genotypes were significant. The mean sum of square was highly significant for all the characters. Pusa 1103 and Pusa 362 were the most tolerant along with ICC 4958 which is a well-known donor for the drought tolerance.

Published: February 2023

Yield response, profitability margins and oil quality in relation to macro (S) and micro (B and Zn) nutrients application with NPK recommendations were quantified in spring planted sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.). Significantly higher seed yield, synergism in nutrients uptake and superior oil quality was noticed through better expression of physio-morphic traits and yield components, increased nutrient accumulation and improvement in oil quality parameters with application of S, B and Zn. Supplemented nutrition proved to be economically more efficient and sustainable over recommended NPK as evident by relatively higher crop yield response (0.10-0.18 t ha-1), production efficiency (4.7-8.0%), profitability (0.50-0.97 USD/ha/day), relative economic efficiency (4.64- 9.05%) and sustainability yield index (5.1-8.5%). Improvement in saturated fatty acid (SFA): unsaturated fatty acid (UFA) ratio indicated improvement in oil quality, followed the trend of S>B=Zn. An inverse correlation (r = –0.68**) between mono- (oleic) and poly- (linoleic) unsaturated fatty acids indicated the inter-dependence of these two quality parameters. The information generated would facilitate quantitative yield predictions in relation to macro (S) and micro (B and Zn) nutrient application with recommended fertilization in sunflower.

Authors: Tipurić Darko , Barišić Radoslav , Arnerić Josip
Published: February 2023

Complexity of competitive repertoire is the ability of a firm to undertake a wider range of diverse competitive moves than its competitors. Firm undertaking diverse competitive moves can enhance capabilities and potentially achieve competitive advantage and superior performance, especially in environment with uncertainty and volatility characteristics. Besides, complexity of competitive repertoire gives stakeholders a series of information on the firm characteristics, its resources and/or specific know-how for intense rivalry. The goal of this paper is to provide theoretical and practical overview on the construct of complexity of competitive repertoire and the method of its computing. In addition, relationship between complexity of the competitive repertoire and the firm performance on a sample of seventeen Croatian firm dyads are analyzed. Results show that the higher level of complexity in a competitive repertoire has a positive effect on firm performance.
The Influence of Top Managers' Personal Values On Sustainability Of SMEs In Developing Countries
Authors: Ahmić Azra , Šunje Aziz , Kurtić Emir
Published: February 2023

The purpose of this paper is to provide a new theoretical insight regarding top managers' personal values in developing countries based on the Schwartz Values Theory (Schwartz, 1992, 1996, 2006; Schwartz and Bilsky, 1990) and to explore the influence of top managers' personal values on sustainability performances of successful businesses. The research describes personal values differences between top managers and their commitment to pro-social and pro-environmental responsibility who were approached through the validated and reliable questionnaire on identifying top managers' personal values (PVQ40) and questionnaire on sustainability indicators observed through the „triple bottom line“ concept which includes three measuring elements: financial, social and environmental performances (Fauzi, Svensson and Rahman, 2010). Given that top managers are very often the owners in SMEs, their values are largely reflected in the organizational values, which means that in small pro-environmentaly oriented firms, the personal values of owners-managers seem to play a much stronger part in motivating pro-environmental behaviors than in other SMEs (Lawrence at al., 2006). With regard to business sustainability, it is still insufficiently known, developed and understood in Southeast Europe and in developing countries. Therefore, this research may be used to encourage companies and local governments to include a sustainability issues in their business activities as a pre-condition for business success and competitiveness. The managers in SMEs can use this research as a guideline on introduction of contemporary principles of sustainability into their companies and to improve and direct their personal values towards sustainability.
Materialisation of the Concept of Good Governance by Effective Investment Dispute Resolution in the European Union
Authors: Mucha Jagna
Published: February 2023

The concept of good governance constitutes a wide perspective for academic discussion because it provides a substantial theoretical background for settling many practical problems faced contemporarily by the EU. The basic assumptions of good governance have basically remained unchanged since the 90’s, when the concept was introduced by the World Bank. Notably, the scholarly discussions these days reveal new facets of the said concept, when related to specific domains. The paper discusses the application of the specific elements of the concept of good governance in the field of the international investment law. Specifically, it seeks to demonstrate that the concept of good governance regulates the issue of international investments in that, among others, it requires the application of the alternative dispute resolution in order to make the investment law enforceable in the best possible way.
Good and Transparent Management of State-Owned Companies – Reality or Utopia?
Authors: Balantič Janez
Published: February 2023

Certain tasks in the Republic of Slovenia are in the domain of the state or local community. In order to carry out these tasks, state-owned or public companies have been established. The management of such companies is not always good and transparent, and as a result it often leads to considerable damage to public property. Such situations are mostly caused by poor management by the management boards, and rarely by poor and inadequate control by the supervisory boards. They are also the result of poor and inadequate communication between the management and supervisory boards. Unfortunately, poor governance does not occur in isolated cases and the mismanagement of such companies is often only introduced to the public through affairs that are presented in the media. There are, however, also some positive exceptions with good and transparent corporate governance that bring profits to the shareholders and, consequently, lower the prices of individual services for citizens.

Published: February 2023

The preparedness for outbreaks of pandemics such as the COVID-19 is a major concern for health authorities and leaders as extensive studies in the past have been reported and well documented. However, engaging with the response to an outbreak demands many decisions with enormous implications on a population and its regions. A review of past response mechanisms sheds light on different scenarios to provide an understanding of the challenges that will emerge, depicting trends, changes to GDP and the impact on the economy and employment. With this article we aim to identify and bring to light the challenges faced by Malta during the pandemic we are currently facing - COVID. This will help risk managers and leaders understand the devastating social and economic impact of such disruptions and act proactively to avoid repetition and embarrassments of being unprepared. Moreover we aim to provide an understanding of the expected cascading economic domino effects, which may result from the workforce unavailability, during a pandemic and the mistakes in estimation, if any, that could have been avoided. A desk research study technique was adopted whereby data was collected from existing sources, including government websites, online statistics, published reports, trends and internal data to the local Maltese markets. The COVID-19 phenomena led to new measures being taken worldwide as professionals, leaders, academics and businesses took unpredecented steps to change their business as usual strategies. This in turn brought about various questions and discussions on how islands like Malta controlled their situation.

Published: February 2023

It has long been understood that stabilizing the global climate requires human carbon emissions to converge toward net zero (Matthews and Caldeira, 2008). Analysis by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) suggests delays in achieving net zero emissions, or a temperature increase of more than 1.5°C, will necessitate even stronger action: net negative emissions. A very large-scale opportunity for carbon sequestration would include yet unproven ocean-based carbon dioxide removal (CDR) technologies (Rogelj et al., 2018).

Published: February 2023

Contexte. En France, l’insomnie est un motif fréquent de consultation. Les benzodiazépines y sont largement prescrites, et 15 % de leurs instaurations sont prolongées hors des délais. Afin de lutter contre cette surmédication, il est recommandé de privilégier des alternatives non médicamenteuses. L’hypnothérapie est une de ces alternatives, mais peu d’études ont décrit l’impact d’une formation à l’hypnothérapie chez les médecins généralistes. Objectif. Explorer l’expérience vécue des médecins généralistes concernant les modifications induites par une formation en hypnose médicale sur leurs pratiques concernant l’insomnie. Méthode. Une étude qualitative a été menée de juin à septembre 2019 auprès de médecins généralistes libéraux des Alpes-Maritimes et la Haute-Corse ayant suivi une des formations approfondies en hypnose. Neuf entretiens semi-dirigés ont été réalisés jusqu’à suffisance des données. Les entretiens ont été enregistrés puis retranscrits sous la forme de verbatims anonymes, leur analyse thématique a été soumise à une triangulation des données indépendante. Résultats. L’accès à une formation en hypnose était décrit comme une impulsion permettant d’avancer sereinement vers une pratique plus dynamique de la médecine. L’apprentissage par expérience personnelle de l’hypnothérapie était décrit comme facilitant pour accompagner le patient dans une relation sans hiérarchie. Ainsi, les participants ressentaient une amélioration de leur communication verbale et non verbale. La formation leur permettrait de rendre le patient plus autonome et acteur de sa santé. Les participants déclaraient avoir réduit leurs prescriptions médicamenteuses chez les patients souffrant d’insomnie et désiraient approfondir leurs connaissances. Conclusion. Pour les médecins interrogés, la formation en hypnose rendait leur exercice plus serein et amplifiait leur volonté d’enrichir leurs connaissances médicales. Elle rendait la relation médecin-patient plus équilibrée et pourrait avoir une place dans le programme de lutte contre la consommation de benzodiazépines et molécules apparentées.

ENQUETE SUR LES MODALITES ET LES VARIABILITES DE MISE EN PLACE DE LA SODEV EN FRANCE
Authors: BOULET P
Published: February 2023

L’élaboration d’un protocole régissant l’utilisation de la supervision par observation directe avec enregistrement vidéo (Sodev) permet d’envisager un déploiement national. Son utilisation très variable nécessitait de recueillir l’avis des maîtres de stage des universités (MSU) sur les divers aspects du protocole et sur des propositions alternatives. Le résultat de l’enquête montrait que le protocole et certaines des propositions supplémentaires étaient acceptés et que la réalisation d’une séance de supervision utilisant la Sodev nécessitait la sélection d’objectifs pédagogiques et une bonne coopération entre le MSU et son étudiant. Si le déploiement peut s’appuyer sur le protocole élaboré par le département de médecine générale de Rouen, l’approbation des autres propositions a montré que le protocole peut être modulé en fonction des objectifs pédagogiques de chaque faculté.
