Organiczna całość w „Brzezinie”. Ekokrytyczna reinterpretacja opowiadania Jarosława Iwaszkiewicza
Authors: Mytych-Forajter Beata
Published: January 2021

Artykuł jest propozycją czytania znanej prozy Iwaszkiewicza z wykorzystaniem nastawienia ekokrytycznego. Ta propozycja pozwala uznać za głównego bohatera tekstu nie ludzi i ich losy, ale las, w którym rozgrywa się akcja opowiadania. Autorka proponuje wydzielić w narracji kilka trybów konstruowania narracji o lesie: ekonomiczny, medyczny, symboliczny, estetyczny, z których każdy zakłada ludzką próbę zapanowania nad roślinnym żywiołem za pośrednictwem języka. Doznanie braku, wyrażone przez umierającego Stanisława, wydaje się tematyzować poszukiwanie nowego języka, za pomocą którego możliwe stałoby się włączenie człowieka w organiczną całość.
Dendrocentryczny świat późnej poezji Jarosława Iwaszkiewicza
Authors: Szóstak Anna
Published: January 2021

Celem artykułu jest wskazanie na miejsce i rolę drzewa w późnej, senilnej poezji autora Brzeziny – jego znaczeń symbolicznych oraz szerokiego kontekstu kulturowo-społecznego, psychologicznego, estetycznego, i co istotne – metafizyczno-duchowego, w jakim jest sytuowane. Drzewo bowiem w poetyckim uniwersum Iwaszkiewicza to nie tylko oś i centrum rzeczywistości, lecz także – przede wszystkim – samoistne, odrębne, podmiotowe, równe ludzkiemu lub nawet doskonalsze istnienie, z którym porozumienia szuka poeta, by odkryć tajemnicę nieśmiertelności, dotrzeć do transcendentnego jądra bytu. Filozoficzny namysł nad egzystencją w drzewnej postaci przynosi niezwykle nowoczesną w swoim wyrazie, głęboką i wyrafinowaną refleksję nad obecnością i pozycją człowieka w naturze, daleką od triumfalistycznego, nieuprawnionego myślenia w biblijnych kategoriach czynienia sobie ziemi poddaną.
Drzewo, człowiek i drobnoustroje w powieściowym laboratorium. O „Historii kołka w płocie" Józefa Ignacego Kraszewskiego
Authors: Marcin Lul
Published: January 2021

Tematem przedstawionej w artykule interpretacji Historii kołka w płocie, jednej z żytomierskich powieści Kraszewskiego z 1858 roku, jest zetknięcie ludzkiej kultury i cywilizacji (w tym społecznego bytu wsi polskiej) z materialnością świata nie-ludzkiego. Zagadnienie to wywołuje szereg pytań i wątpliwości zwłaszcza dzisiaj, w kontekście historyczno-metodologicznego zwrotu w stronę świata rzeczy i ekologii. Teoriopoznawczy sceptycyzm Kraszewskiego nakłada na odbiorcę obowiązek lektury zgodnej z „dyrektywą nieufności”, to znaczy ironicznie podejrzliwej wobec wszelkich prawd „absolutnych”. Znajduje tu pole do realizacji ironia sokratejska, podniesiona przez Schlegla do rangi głównej zasady filozoficzno-estetycznej. Pod piórem Kraszewskiego staje się ona mechanizmem twórczej samokontroli, powstrzymuje twórcę przed jednoznacznym dydaktyzmem, z którym oswoił czytelników sporej części swoich poprzednich powieści o tematyce społecznej. Metoda konfrontowania „wiedzy” bytów nie-ludzkich (pochodzących ze świata roślin) z ludzkimi relacjami i sądami, krytyka sztuki sądzenia, rezygnacja z wyraźnej dyskursywizacji własnego ideowego stanowiska na rzecz „ukrytej filozofii”, wreszcie wprowadzenie do powieści perspektywy mikroświatów w postaci drobnoustrojów – całe to spektrum stanowi wyposażenie powieściowego laboratorium, w które zamienia się Historia kołka w płocie.

Building econometric tools for assessing the investment attractiveness of the region
Authors: Dmitriev Nikolay , Rodionov Dmitriy , Kubarskiy Alexander
Published: January 2021

Correlation and regression analysis is used as a method for constructing an econometric model of the region's investment attractiveness. The result of this work was the identification of key factors that affect the inflow of investment in the Pskov region. Testing of the model with identical factors in other regions showed inaccuracy of the results, which confirms the author's hypothesis about the need to consider the investment aspects of each region and other territories separately, and the use of ratings with identical parameters will not make it possible to reflect the essential side of investment attractiveness. The significance of the obtained model lies in the possibility of implementing measures to increase the investment attractiveness of the region, paying attention to the most valuable factors in a particular region.

Empirical Analysis of the Factors that Affecting Maize Production of Farmers among Smallholders: The Case of Eastern Oromia, Ethiopia
Authors: Mohammed Murad
Published: January 2021

In Ethiopia, maize is the second largest in production areas and first in its productivity but there are high yield gaps between the actual yield currently producing and the potential yield. Therefore, this study was aimed to identify factors that affecting maize production of smallholder farmers at the farm level in the Meta district in the east Hararge zone, Oromia, Ethiopia. A two-stage random sampling technique was employed and a total of 200 smallholder farmers were randomly and proportionally selected to collect primary data. Multiple linear regression models were used to analysis factors that affect maize production among smallholder farmers. The result showed that the production of maize was influenced by several factors. The coefficient provided that as the farmers obtained 1 dollar from non-farm activity, the maize production of farmers increased by 293.2 kg, keeping other factors constant. Thus, the farmers who had money from non-farm sources used as additional income to gain agricultural inputs for maize production and thus generate more maize quantity. The result was pointed out that the size of the cultivated areas of land had a positive influence on the quantity of maize production of farmers. The coefficient entailed that as the size of the cultivated areas of land increased by one hectare, the farmer‘s quantity of maize production increased by 140.4 kg by keeping other factors constant. The result was also indicated that other factors being constant, the maize crop production of smallholder farmers of Meta district was decreased by 4 kg as Development Agent‘s (DA‘s) office distance increased by one minute. The possible explanation was that extension services were a critical source of information on agronomic practices. Therefore, policy makers should encourage the current maize production and supplying improved seed and chemical fertilizer which support to improve smallholder farm households‘ welfare by increasing their sources of income.

Authors: Shimira Flavien , Uğur Senem , Özdemir Şamil Muhammet , Yalçın Mendi Yeşim
Published: January 2021

Nowadays, immediate environmental friendly solutions such as the use of biopesticides and other methods to control and manage pests are well needed. They are imperative due to the continuous accumulation of toxic residues from synthetic insecticides into the environment, the contamination of global agro-ecosystem and resistance of certain insects and pathogens. The global renewed interest of botanical pesticides does not leave aside Turkey. Thus, many environmental reports pointed out contaminations in different regions of Turkey by chemical pesticide residues, like lambda-cyhalothrin in some conventional grapes farming in the Aegean region. The use of botanical pesticides like Pyrethrin extracted from Pyrethrum‘s flowers (Chrysanthemum cinerariifolium) is part of sustainable agriculture goals to reduce the incidence of pests and diseases without any alteration to the natural balance. The purpose of this review is to analyse and identify the possibilities of Pyrethrum production in Turkey. Various research works around the world were compiled and some key informants were correlated to existing researches in Turkey. Subsequently, it was found that the Black-Sea region of Turkey has great potential in the growing and industrial production of Pyrethrum by its weather patterns (temperatures, pluviometry and humidity) and soil characteristics. The region has a similar climate with the East-African high-lands well-known for Pyrethrum production. Thus, the country has shown great technological advances and the capacity to produce vegetative and disease-free clones for other ornamental plants by using tissue culture techniques. Therefore, the multiplication of high-quality vegetative clones of Chrysanthemum cinerariifolium and their maintenance can sustain commercial and long term production of Pyrethrum in Turkey.

Hibernation Period in Some Land Snail Species (Gastropoda: Helicidae): Epiphragmal Structure and Hypometabolic Behaviors
Authors: Şereflişan Hülya , Duysak Önder
Published: January 2021

In this study, the hypometabolism behavior, epiphragm formation process, and the mineral composition of the epiphragmal structure of the Helix pomacella, Eobania vermiculata, Helix melanostoma, and Helix asemnis land snails were investigated during the hibernation period. 100 snails selected among mature individuals, 25 from each species, were collected from nature for the research. The snails were placed in four 50x50x5 cm pans containing 20-cm-deep humus soil. Snails were fed with lettuce by free feeding until the hibernation period. Hypometabolism behavior of snails that had hibernated between November and December 2018, and January and February 2019 were examined as entering the hibernation stage, hibernation stage, and leaving the hibernation stage. The ionic concentration (Calcium, Iron, and Phosphorus) of the epiphragm layer formed during the hibernation process was analyzed, its formation duration, and its degradation at the end of the hibernation period were examined. In the study, it was determined that the weight before hibernation reduced by 18-22% in all examined species (H. pomacella, E. vermiculata, H. melanostoma, and H. asemnis). The highest values in terms of epiphragm formation duration (19±0.30 days), weight (0.41±0.26 g), and thickness (0.310±0.22 mm) were determined in H. asemnis. In terms of the ionic concentration, the highest Calcium level was determined in H. asemnis (29.96±0.12 mg/g) while the highest Phosphorus level (4.02±0.20 mg/g) was determined in E. vermiculata, and the highest Iron content was found in H. pomacella (19.50±0.33 mg/g). The degradation duration of the epiphragm layer at the end of hibernation was determined the longest in E. vermiculata (7 days) whereas the shortest in H. pomacella (3 days). As a result of the present research, it was seen that the epiphragm layer is important for snails in terms of a sustainable life cycle and that the ecological tolerances of snails depend on the epiphragmal structure.
Glomalin and Contribution of Glomalin to Carbon Sequestration in Soil: A Review
Authors: Hossain MD. Belal
Published: January 2021

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) improves the uptake of nutrients and water to the plants through mutual symbiosis. Only AMF produces glomalin related soil protein (GRSP). Acaulospora morroaiae, Glomus luteum, Glomus verruculosum, Glomus versiforme are the effective glomalin producing AMFs. Mixed primary forest, tropical rainforest, soil organic matter, clay soil, no tillage, quality and quantity of fertilizers, crop rotation, and water stable aggregates are also suitable to increase glomalin production. Glomalin is a glycoprotein that contains 30–40% carbon (C) which is assumed to be stable and persistent in soil. The glomalin can sequestrate more carbon in the soil due to its high carbon and aggregate stability. Greater aggregate stability leads to high organic carbon protection in terrestrial ecosystems. The lowest glomalin content (0.007 mg per gram soil) was found in Antarctic region, and the highest glomalin content (13.50 mg per gram soil) was observed in tropical rainforest. In agricultural soil, glomalin content varies between 0.30 and 0.70 mg per gram soil. The GRSP containing soil organic carbon (SOC) in deeper soil layers was 1.34 to 1.50 times higher than in surface layers. Glomalin can sequestrate 0.24 Mg C ha-1 in soil when present at 1.10±0.04 mg g-1. At elevated CO2 (700 Âµmol mol-1) level, easily extractable glomalin (EEG) and total glomalin (TG) were 2.76 and 5.67% SOC in the surface soil layer over ambient carbon dioxide (CO2) level. This finding indicates the effective function of GRSP C sequestration in soil under global environmental change scenarios. Glomalin can also protect labile carbon that can help regulating nutrient supply to the plants. No tillage practice causes higher AMF hyphal length, GRSP and water stable aggregate (WSA) compared to that of conventional tillage practice. The current review demonstrated that GRSP is an important tool for carbon storage in deep soils. Glomalin mediates soil aggregates, improves soil quality, increases carbon sequestration and crop production, and mitigates climate change.

Lumpy skin disease is explained as a significant cattle disease affecting cattle of many parts of the world. An outbreak was experienced in different parts of Bangladesh including Barishal for the first time in the last quarter of 2019. This investigation was carried out to know the outbreak scenario of the disease in southern part of Bangladesh. A total of 726 cattle were included in this study covering 50 dairy farms of Barishal region from September 2019 to December 2019. Morbidity rate was found 21% (CI: 18-24%) and mortality was 1% (CI: 1-2%) in the outbreak area. Young animals (24%) and pregnant animals (70%) were significantly more susceptible compared to aged animals (17%) and non-pregnant animals (15%), respectively. Moreover, male and crossbred cattle were slightly more prone to the infection in comparison to their counterparts. About 45% of the affected animals showed nodular and remaining 55% had edematous lesions. Almost 90% of the affected animals were treated with NSAID followed by antibiotics, antihistaminic, steroid drugs and antiviral drugs where only 20% of the affected animals were treated by authorized veterinary personnel. This was the first epidemiological investigation in the mentioned outbreak area which may serve as a baseline for LSD research in the location needed for developing effective control strategy.
Performance Characteristics and Cost Optimization of Self-Compacting Concrete with Industrial Waste Additives to be Used in Agricultural Buildings
Authors: Memiş Selçuk
Published: January 2021

Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) is a building material that has gained importance recently because it can easily and spontaneously settle in high buildings, where pouring conditions with frequent reinforcement are difficult. Agricultural structures, on the other hand, are structures that involve many units such as plant and animal barns, storage buildings and residences, and require care in their design and construction. In this study prepared for this purpose, it is used in concrete by replacing marble dust and fly ash with cement in concrete that will be used in agricultural structures. The main factor in these studies is to obtain information about the behavior of KYB with marble powder and fly ash, its fresh properties as well as its effect on durability, as well as to calculate the cost of marble powders in SCC with superplasticizers and similar chemical additives. Within the scope of the study, different ratios of marble powder (MP) and fly ash (FA) mixtures were created instead of OPC 32.5 and OPC 42.5. 100 mm cubic samples were prepared with the prepared mixtures and some of the physical properties of these samples were determined in 3th, 7th and 28th days. Samples were compared with SCC concrete values with traditionally produced references. As a result, it has been determined that the contribution of fly ash to SCC is more effective than the contribution of waste marble powder and can be used as powder material. In terms of cost, it has been observed that it will provide advantages in agricultural structures thanks to the high strengths obtained.

Küçük aile işletmeleri gıda üretimin yaklaşık %80‘ini karşılamakta ve bu işletmelerin piyasadan çekilmesi gıda arzında ani düşüşe sebep olabilmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı küçük aile işletmelerine pazarlama eğitimi sağlanmasının, çiftçilerin becerilerini, üretimi ve karlılığı nasıl artırabileceğini göstermektir. Bu beklentilerin gerçekleşmesi büyük işletmelerin ya da kamunun sağlayacağı desteklerle mümkün olabilecektir. Bu çalışmada oyun teorisi kullanılarak, iki oyuncu (Proje kurucu ve çiftçi) arasında gerçekleşen olası stratejiler dikkate alınmış ve her aşamada elde edilecek kazançlar bulunmuştur. Sonuç olarak, yatırımı yapan kuruluş ile eğitimi alan çiftçinin iş birliği yapması, kazancı artıracağı sonucuna varılmıştır. Bu sonuç güven duygusu, iş birliği ve örgütlenmenin temelini oluşturmaktadır. Böylece üretim artarken, kalifiye eleman eksiği azalacak ve istihdama katkı sağlanacaktır. Ayrıca teknoloji kaynaklı pazarlama sorunlarının aşılmasına da katkı sağlayacaktır.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui persepsi calon legislatif perempuan terkait hoax yang terjadi selama pemilihan umum serentak tahun 2018 dan 2019. Konsep tentang persepsi di fase kognitif, afektif, dan konatif, digunakan untuk menganalisis hasil wawancara.

Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa secara kognitif calon anggota legislatif perempuan memiliki pemahaman yang komprehensif terkait hoax tetapi kurang peduli untuk mengidentifikasi hoax.

Meskipun demikian, secara tindakan, tidak ada upaya pelaporan oleh calon anggota legislatif perempuan terhadap penyebar hoax karena beberapa hal; ketidakpahaman mekanisme pelaporan hoax, tidak mau melaporkan jika tidak menyinggung pribadi secara langsung, dan instruksi dari partai.
