Controlled Chitosan Molecular Weight Reduction by Mechanochemical and Aging-based Phosphoric Acid Hydrolysis
Authors: Moores Audrey , Yang Galen , Lam Edmond
Published: January 2023

Chitosan is typically produced by the deacetylation of biopolymer chitin. Its molecular weight (Mw) is a function of the chitin source and the deacetylation conditions. It remains a challenge to both control the Mw of chitosan and obtain good polydispersity, essential for optimal function of chitosan in different applications. This study explores the use of mechanochemistry and aging as effective methods towards the controlled reduction of the Mw of commercial high Mw chitosan (HMwChs) with phosphoric acid where Mw was measured by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). In comparison to conventional solution-based methods, this new mechanochemical process features improved process mass intensity in comparison to conventional techniques and affords low Mw chitosan (LMwChs) samples in a range of 200 to as low as 19.5 kDa, with a polydispersity of 1.8.

Authors: Pampararo Giovanni , Debecker Damien
Published: January 2023

Fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) were produced with high efficiency by a cheap, available, and strongly basic catalyst: NaAlO2 (SA). A deep characterization revealed that both basic density and strength played a crucial role in the transesterification reaction. Its catalytic performances were compared with other classical basic catalysts, in the same operative conditions and the outline is that SA outcompetes all other benchmarks in terms of specific activity and final FAME yield. SA is also truly heterogeneous (does not leach).

Published: January 2023

Background Free radicals are linked to numerous human diseases. Free radicals can be neutralised by antioxidants thereby reducing their negative effects. We sought to learn more about the antioxidant and free radical scavenging abilities of quinazoline derivatives in this study.Aim of the study Drug discovery and development is a time-consuming interdisciplinary and expensive process. Advances in computational procedures have empowered in silico routines and specifically structure-based drug design technique to accelerate new target choice for the improvement of lead compounds. Hence the present work aimed to identify the potent quinazolinone compounds for synthesis.Methodology The synthesis was carried out from the reaction of anthranilic acid and primary aromatic amines with Vilsmeier reagent DMFPOCl3 . Five derivatives which obeyed rule of five having desired physio-chemical properties were synthesized PDB code 6DE4. The reaction occurred in few minutes under microwave irradiation providing good yields. The synthesized compounds were isolated recrystallised by using suitable solvents purified by Thin Layer Chromatography TLC and characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy FT-IR Proton-Nuclear Magnetic Resonance 1 H NMR and mass spectroscopy.Results All the synthesized compounds 3a 4a 8b 9b 10b were evaluated for their anti-oxidant activities by 22-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl DPPH Hydrogen peroxide H2 O2 assays. All of them showed significant anti-antioxidant activity with 8b exhibiting the maximum activity compared to others.Conclusion On comparison with standard ascorbic acid quinazolinone derivatives were found to possess effective in vitro antioxidant activity. These quinazoline analogues could be considered as useful templates for further development to obtain more potent antioxidant activity.nbsp

Authors: D. Uko Etim , H. Abidemi Abdullateef , S. Ayanninuola Olatunji
Published: January 2023

Seismic refraction data was acquired in the Middle Benue Trough which is located in the north central Nigeria with latitude 07.5-08.5oN and longitude 08.00-09.30oE. The aim was to find out how velocity vary in the near-surface layers in the area using seismic refraction data. The seismic survey was investigated at 14 acquisition stations. Two overlapping reversed profiles were shot into 14 stations. Each acquisition station was primed with 0.20kg dynamite loaded at 1.5m below the surface. The recording equipment was McSeis-160MXTM, and monitor record was processed with Microsoft Excel software to determine the velocities from both the forward and reversed shot-points. The results show two distinct layers cases. The thickness of the topmost layer varies between 2.75m and 5.45m with a mean of 4.1m. The velocity of this topmost layer varies between 399.0 ms-1 and 767.0ms-1 with a mean of 604.8ms-1. The velocity of the underlying layer (V1) varies between 1212.5ms-1 and 3257.0ms-1 with a mean of 1757.9ms-1. The velocity increases with depth into the subsurface. The results are useful in locating groundwater aquifer, and in the design of source-receiver arrays for reflection seismic.
PERCULTALINA: A NEW LAGENID BENTHIC FORAMINIFERAL GENUS
Authors: Salim Anan Haidar
Published: January 2023

Percultalina n. gen. is introduced here to include the Early Paleogene benthic Lagenid foraminiferids from Jordan and Egypt (Southern Tethys) that characterized by its large lenticular initial portion followed by two or more uniserial elongate erected or inclined inflated rounded chambers, ornamented surface by elevated sutures with a row of tubercles or nodes along the sutures, and spinose surface. This new genus has been previously assigned to different genera: Vaginulinopsis Reuss, or Percultazonaria Loeblich & Tappan, or Marginulinopsis Silvestri. Three Early Paleogene species of the new genus are described here from two countries in Jordan: Percultalina wadiarabensis (Futyan) with rectilinear uniserial portion of the test (the genotype of the new genus), and Egypt: Percultalina misrensis Anan (n. sp.), and P. sinaensis with inclined uniserial portion of the test. Moreover, varied and diverse genera of the Lagenid benthic foraminifera are attempted here to study the holotypes of seven diagnostic genera of this group: Lenticulina Lamarck, Cribrolenticulina Haman, Marginulinopsis Silvestri, Percultazonaria Anan, Leticuzonaria Anan, Lenticubella Anan and Percultalina Anan. The taxonomic revision of these seven genera will greatly aid paleontologists and biostratigraphers to helpfully understanding.

This research work asses the problems of building foundation within Sagari Estate, Akure, Southwestern Nigeria, using remotely sensed data and geophysical methods. The slope, lineament, hill, and contour map were generated using terrain analysis in ArcGIS 10.5 environment. Electrical Resistivity (ER) and Very Low Frequency (EM-VLF) Electromagnetic methods were used in this study. The ER method involves the use of Vertical Electrical Sounding (VES) with Schlumberger configuration. The initial geoelectric parameters obtained from the fifty three (53) VES station points interpretation (layer resistivities and thicknesses) were used to generate geoelectric maps. The variation of strata and physical strength information within the investigated area were determined from the integrated results of the three methods. Results revealed that substantial portion of the areas studied is relatively unsuitable for high rise civil engineering foundations. However, it was showed that the northern and southern parts of the investigated area were more suitable for foundations. The dominant presence of lineaments, steep slopes , fractures, streams, and thick clayey topsoil as well as weathered layers within the western, eastern, and the central portions reveals susceptibility to subsidence if adequate structural supports mitigate the effect of the persistent foundation failure are not provided.

Published: January 2023

This study was conducted to create a re-awakening of thinking in the subject area of wheat importation in Cameroon. The objectives of the study included: examining the production and importation level of wheat, estimating likely job creation potential and community welfare missed due to high importation of wheat and estimating revenue (from taxes) that could have been generated through personal income tax if local production was prioritized. Secondary data was used. Simple descriptive analysis tools building on data for 20 years 2000 to 2019, was used for analysis. Data employed for analysis was collected from online sites namely FAO, USDA, Macrotrends, and Knoema. This was after all efforts to obtain data from the National Institute of Statistics yielded no fruits. The data collected from online sites were averaged and the mean was used for analysis. Wheat production results showed that on average for the period studied, 0.84 thousand metric tonnes of wheat were produced annually in Cameroon. Importation figures showed that an average of 513.85 thousand metric tonnes were imported annually in Cameroon. This shows a huge gap between local production and consumption needs to be filled through importation. Regarding lost job creation potential, estimates indicated that about 246,413 jobs could have been created annually if local wheat production was prioritized over importation. These indicate that unemployment levels would have been much better in wheat-producing areas if this was the case. Estimates relating to revenue generation through personal income tax show that on average, 16,912.24MFCFA might have been missed annually for the period 2000 to 2019 due to the high importation of wheat. Overall, the results suggest that Cameroon is missing a lot by importing huge volumes of wheat. The study recommends that Cameroon should engage heavily in local wheat production given that the agro-ecological conditions are favorable for wheat production. Such an action will bring about significant positive changes in terms of local job creation, income generation, and welfare improvements to the inhabitants, especially in the farming communities.

Published: January 2023

Energy is a vital driving force for development; access to energy can alleviate poverty, improve living conditions and propel economic development. Biofuels as a fossil energy alternative has gained worldwide attention for many years. Drastic changes in the energy system are needed. However, the establishment of the required new energy technologies and associated infrastructure will in itself lead to GHG emissions. Other important aspect affecting Egypt’s agriculture income is water scarcity. Egypt will need to improve the way they manage their water resources and associated services. However, expansion of Jatropha plantation largely depends on profitability from such plantations on small- scale level. The study reveals that Jatropha is a potential renewable energy resource with advantage of grown on marginal lands and irrigated by treated of waste water. The main objective of the study is to assess the profitability of Jatropha through discounted indicators in order to enhancing the sustainable development in Egypt. This study has shown positive returns from Jatropha plantation during the period 2008- 2022. Although the net present value at discount ratio of 30% was LE 8.2 thousand, while the benefit/ cost ratio was 1.45.

Published: January 2023

Dynamics of production efficiency is a key factor in assessing resource-use patterns and production growth. Raising technical efficiency of smallholder farmers in rural areas would not only increase their income but also stimulate the rest of the economy. This study therefore assessed movement of smallholder farmers in and out of technical efficiency regime over time in Nigeria. Panel data from Living Standard Measurement Survey was analysed using stochastic production frontier model, Markov chain and multinomial logit model. Farm size, labour, cassava cuttings and the use of pesticides, significantly influenced the productivity of cassava production while age squared, household size, no access to extension services and membership of a cooperative society reduced the efficiency of the farming households. A higher percentage (64.83%) of cassava farms under mono-cropping system were efficient in 2010/2011, while a large proportion of about 92.91% were inefficient in 2015/2016. Further, the rate of entry into technical inefficiency (31.32%) was more than the rate of exit from technical inefficiency (14.89%). Transition into technical inefficiency was explained by age, age squared, farm size, gender, household size, marital status, secondary school education and farming systems. In the long run, the probability that rural cassava farmers will be technically efficient was higher than that of being technically inefficient in the future.
THE EFFECT OF ANTHROPOGENIC ACTIVITIES ON THE QUALITY OF RIVER FANOMA IN SEFWI AKONTOMBRA IN THE WESTERN REGION OF GHANA
Authors: Owusu-Boateng Godfred , Kwame Nkuah Pious
Published: January 2023

The suitability of the Fanoma River, a source of water used by the Sefwi Akontombra communities in the Western North Region of Ghana for drinking and agriculture, has been a concern since the quality status of the river is perceived as polluted, making it unsuitable for these designated uses. This gives credence to curiosity for research on the quality status of the river. The community’s awareness and understanding of issues related to anthropogenic perturbation and river health could be an important factor influencing the phenomenon. To address these problems, we assessed the physico-chemical, heavy metal, and bacteriological qualities of the river using the APHA protocols and also conducted a questionnaire survey of environmental awareness of the inhabitants, for management consideration. Results showed higher concentrations of phosphate (46.34 mg/L) nitrate (1.08 mg/L) than the WHO Guideline values. This resulted in high levels of BOD (56.17 mg/L) and COD (259.74 mg/L) that strip river water of dissolved oxygen (4.75 mg/L) through microbial degradation. High turbidity (15.78 mg/L), Fe (1.22 mg/L) and Cd (0.01 mg/L) resulted in high electrical conductivity (1608.76 μS/cm) and together with high TSS has imparted intense colour (63.86 mg/L) to the river. These suggest that the river is not suitable for the intended purposes, a situation attributable to a low level of education by the community and a misconception about issues related to river pollution. Collaborative stakeholder action through the design and implementation of education programmes is crucial to averting the phenomenon of pollution and conserving the river.
Vasopressin V1a receptor and oxytocin receptor regulate murine sperm motility differently

Published: January 2023

Specific receptors for the neurohypophyseal hormones, arginine vasopressin (AVP) and oxytocin, are present in the male reproductive organs. However, their exact roles remain unknown. To elucidate the physiological functions of pituitary hormones in male reproduction, this study first focused on the distribution and function of one of the AVP receptors, V1a. In situ hybridization analysis revealed high expression of theAvpr1ain Leydig cells of the testes and narrow/clear cells in the epididymis, with the expression pattern differing from that of the oxytocin receptor (OTR). Notably, persistent motility and highly proportional hyperactivation were observed in spermatozoa from V1a receptor–deficient mice. In contrast, OTR blocking by antagonist atosiban decreased hyperactivation rate. Furthermore, AVP stimulation could alter the extracellular pH mediated by the V1a receptor. The results highlight the crucial role of neurohypophyseal hormones in male reproductive physiology, with potential contradicting roles of V1a and OTR in sperm maturation. Our findings suggest that V1a receptor antagonists are potential therapeutic drugs for male infertility.

Published: January 2023

Posttranslational protein S-palmitoylation regulates the localization and function of its target proteins involved in diverse cellular processes including meiosis. In this study, we demonstrate that S-palmitoylation mediated by Erf2-Erf4 and Akr1 palmitoylacyltransferases is required at multiple meiotic stages in the fission yeastSchizosaccharomyces pombe. We find that S-palmitoylation by Erf2-Erf4 is required for Ras1 localization at the cell periphery to enrich at the cell conjugation site for mating pheromone response. In the absence of Erf2 or Erf4, mutant cells are sterile. A role of Akr1 S-palmitoylating the nuclear fusion protein Tht1 to function in karyogamy is identified. We demonstrate that S-palmitoylation stabilizes and localizes Tht1 to ER, interacting with Sey1 ER fusion GTPase for proper meiotic nuclear fusion. Inakr1,tht1, orsey1mutant, meiotic cells, haploid nuclei are unfused with subsequent chromosome segregation defects. Erf2-Erf4 has an additional substrate of the spore coat protein Isp3. In the absence of Erf2, Isp3 is mislocalized from the spore coat. Together, these results highlight the versatility of the cellular processes in which protein S-palmitoylation participates.

Os conceitos da teoria dos stakeholders tiveram seu início nos anos 1980, sendo R. Edward Freeman o precursor mais notável, baseando-se em diversas áreas temáticas para a conceptualização da teoria, que definia que a organização deveria se ater aos interesses de todos aqueles que estariam interessados no seu bem-estar. Ao longo das últimas décadas, a teoria tem sido utilizada em diversos estudos organizacionais e áreas de pesquisa. Uma das relações da teoria dos stakeholders com o marketing está na ideia de como criar valor para os clientes, que são um dos stakeholders das organizações. Dessa forma, o presente trabalho tem como objetivo investigar a produção científica sobre marketing e a teoria dos stakeholders. Para tanto, foi realizado um estudo bibliométrico a partir da plataforma Web of ScienceTM, em que foi obtida uma amostra de 142 artigos. O banco de dados elaborado foi exportado para o pacote de softwares organizadores de métricas científicas HistCite e, então, para o gerador de imagens Vosviewer. Os resultados apontaram para uma tendência de expansão nos estudos acerca da temática, com países desenvolvidos compondo a maioria das publicações, e uma recente predominância de estudos que abordam percepção de clientes e geração de valor para stakeholders.

Published: January 2023

Analysis of the activities of the first Soviet people’s commissars of agriculture in the context of the restructuring of the agrarian economy after the Revolution of 1917 is presented. A description of the causes and features of the land crisis in Russia and its impact on political life is given. The nature of the first experiments in the transformation of agriculture against the backdrop of revolutionary events is analyzed. As radical revolutionary forces came to power in Russia, the project of "socialization" of the land, developed by the Left Socialist Revolutionary Party and supported by the Bolsheviks, was attempted. The basis of this project was the specific ideas of socialists to achieve progress in agriculture only through the maximum centralization of agricultural production and the nationalization of land, eliminating any private land ownership. The assessment of the Soviet legislative acts related to the introduction of collective forms of land management and state management of the rural economy stands out in this description. It is noted that during the first three years of the revolution's development, decisive steps were taken to implement this project. However, the practical results clearly revealed their utopian nature. By 1921, the development of agriculture, as well as other sectors on the basis of governmentalization led to a general political crisis in the country and the need to introduce the New Economic Policy. The role of the first organizers of the Soviet agrarian system, the people's commissars of agriculture of the RSFSR, is highlighted. Some biographical information about them is given, and their political views on the ways of solving the land issue in the country are evaluated. The article provides an original interpretation of the first revolutionary transformations of the agrarian economy of Russia, as well as the participation of the people's commissars of agriculture in them.
Chlorophyll fluorescence of wheat leaves when infected with Bipolaris sorokiniana, chloride salinity and seed hyperthermia
Authors: Gurova T. A. , Chesnochenko N. E.
Published: January 2023

Results of chlorophyll fluorescence parameters (ChlF) informativity measurement and comparison of 10-d-old spring wheat seedlings under laboratory conditions under separate and combined stressors action are presented. It was found that separate and combined action of chloride salinity (1,3%), infection with cereal root rot pathogen Bipolaris sorokiniana Shoem. (5000 conidia per grain) suppressed light and dark reactions of photosynthesis. The effective quantum yield Y(II), photochemical quenching qP and electron transport ETR decreased significantly in both cultivars, most significantly in the co-activated version (up to 62,7%). The maximum photochemical quantum yield of FS II Fv / Fm was less informative, no significant changes in the parameter were found. Inhibition of light-dependent reactions was accompanied by a significant increase in the values of the parameters of non-photochemical quenching ChlF - coefficient qN and quantum yield of regulated non-photochemical quenching ChlF Y (NPQ) from 24.1 to 72.1% in both varieties, most pronounced in the variety Sibirskaya 12. The parameter Y(NO), the quantum yield of unregulated non-photochemical quenching of ChlF, changed insignificantly relative to the control in both varieties. The positive effect of seed pre-heating (43 °C) on the functional activity of photosynthetic apparatus of seedlings - the reliable (p ≤ 0,05) increase of the parameter Y(II), qP, ETR (by 18,0-59,0%) and decrease of the parameter Y(NPQ), Y(NO) and qN (by 18,8-35,1%) at further infection and chloride salinization in both sorts, mainly in the variety Omskaya 18 was revealed. The informativeness of the parameters ChlF for assessment of varieties stress tolerance was established. Significant intervariety differences (from 1.2-6.2 times) were revealed for almost all parameters (except for Fv / Fm, Y(NO), Fv) for all variants of experiment. The varietal specificity was established - the least changes in ChlF parameters relative to the control were in the stable variety Omskaya 18 in all variants of the experiment. The proposed approach will make it possible to develop a noninvasive method for early diagnosis of stress tolerance (phenotyping) of new wheat genotypes to biotic and abiotic stressors.

US Gambling Stagnation
Authors: Lambert Thomas
Published: January 2023

Much has been written recently in the popular press about the rise of sports gambling, historical horse racing or instant racing (HHR), and esports.  However, despite this, some note an overall decline in the popularity of gambling and gaming in general as horse racing (pari-mutuel) wagering has declined dramatically over the decades and as casino and lottery revenues have fallen slightly since before the Great Recession.  This exploratory research note examines the trends in US gambling over the last several decades and explores whether the new forms of gambling will stem and reverse overall gambling stagnation in the United States.  Despite reports of new gambling outlet successes, it appears that sports gambling, HHR, and esports have not done much to stop the overall fall in gambling revenues.  This is probably due to stagnant disposable personal income growth.

Introduction. The Enhanced Recovery Program (ERP), Fast Track surgery (FTS), and ERAS (enhanced recovery after surgery/rapid recovery after surgery programs) is a multimodal and multidisciplinary treatment strategy designed to reduce the duration of disability and improve the quality of medical care. This program includes preparation at the preoperative stage, the use of minimally invasive techniques for performing surgical intervention and active management of the postoperative period to reduce the duration of inpatient treatment, rehabilitation time and the fastest possible return of patients to normal life. One of the key factors for the success of the ERP is the introduction of multidisciplinary interaction at all stages of examination and treatment. The history of the development of enhanced recovery programs is briefly described, the relevance of the development and application of an optimized treatment strategy, the problems of integration and multidisciplinary are described. The review of the features of the pathophysiology of perioperative stress and practical conclusions justifying the development and application of elements of the enhanced recovery program are presented.

Neste artigo trata-se das contribuições da sociologia da infância, reconhecendo-as como uma
ferramenta que pode auxiliar na consolidação e no fortalecimento da Educação Infantil. Ao
situar a Educação Infantil no Brasil e apresentar os principais postulados da sociologia da
infância, pretende-se contribuir para a conscientização da necessidade de ampliar a oferta da
Educação Infantil e para a reflexão sobre as práticas adotadas nas instituições brasileiras,
apontando a importância de que a criança seja reconhecida como sujeito de direitos e ator social,
com modos próprios de ação que merecem ser respeitados e incentivados nos diversos contextos
em que a criança vive. Essas posturas são vistas pela autora como elementos que fortalecem a
necessidade de construir práticas educativas de melhor qualidade, que atendam às atribuições
legais, estabelecidas pela Lei de Diretrizes e Bases da Educação Nacional (LDBEN), de
promover o desenvolvimento integral das crianças

A violência sexual contra criança tem se tornado um grande e grave problema de saúde pública, ocasionando várias consequências psicossociais na criança. O verdadeiro número de casos é desconhecido, visto que em sua maioria não há a denúncia, impactando no índice de subnotificação, principalmente pelo silêncio familiar, que são os principais responsáveis por tais atos, maior parte sendo pais biológicos e padrastos. Objetivou-se descrever os impactos psicossociais causados à criança que sofre de abuso sexual e espera-se com a pesquisa contribuir com profissionais de saúde despertando o interesse em identificar sinais que apontem para o diagnóstico de abuso sexual infantil e assim possa contribuir para redução dos traumas psicossociais desenvolvidos pela criança.

Desarrollamos el modelo teórico M8 - Modelo de ocho dispositivosadaptativos del cerebro social ? donde incluímos el módulo de puniciónentre los siete que ya estaban previstos en modelos anteriores de cogniciónsocial (Kanazawa, 2004 ). Definimos que el Big five ? 5 grandes rasgos de personalidad , que resultan de la acción estratégica de los módulos . Para testear la existencia del módulo cognitivo de punición, estudiamos elinterés popular por la pena de muerte y la punición en el mundo, conénfasis en los Estados Unidos (2004-2013). Buscamos correlaciones entrecuatro fuentes: 1) datos del Gallup institute ; 2) dados del trabajo de PeterJason Rentfrow (2010); 3) datos del The Democracy Ranking of the Quality of Democracy sobre la calidad de la democracia en los países del mundo y4) datos de Big Data creados a partir de la herramienta Google Trends .Trazamos 4 hipótesis para realizar el estudio: 1) la influencia del M8 (ymás precisamente del módulo de punición), el interés por la punición y la pena de muerte es universal y no varía mucho en su distribución, incluso enescenarios estruturales distintos; 2) existe una fuerte correlación entre altosniveles de extroversión e interés por la pena de muerte en los EstadosUnidos; 3) hay una sólida relación entre interés por la pena de muerte einterés en campañas electorales en los Estados Unidos; 4) existe unatendencia para que niveles similares en cuanto al interés por la pena demuerte aparezca en grupos con preferencias distintas (política y religión),en tanto haya semejanza en cuanto a la distribución de los rasgos de la personalidad (con variaciones en los mismos rasgos). Nuestros resultadosapuntan que la primera y la segunda hipótesis son partidarias tanto en países de alto como de bajo s core democrático, hay incidencia de interés por la punición y la pena de muerte; en los Estados Unidos hay una fuertísima correlación entre interés por la pena de muerte y la extroversión( r = 0,472; p = 0,001). La tercera hipótesis tiene también alta adhesión,existe una correlación altísima entre interés electoral e interés por la penade muerte ( r = 0,336; p < 0,001). Además de eso, encontramos un patrón deestacionalidad de interés consistente, inédito en la literatura. La cuartahipótesis muestra relativa adhesión, puesto que escenarios donde haydistribución de personalidad semejante (con variaciones en los mismosrasgos), los individuos tienden a mostrar niveles de interés semejante por la pena de muerte. La corroboración de las hipótesis 1, 2 y 3 dan base para laexistencia de un módulo punitivo propio del modelo M8 de cognición social.

A educação é uma ocupação humana, com grande relevância na
infância e adolescência. Segundo Tupicanskas e Barbosa ([s.d.]), o
ambiente escolar, contexto que reúne crianças, adolescentes, familiares,
educadores, é rico em estímulos sensoriais que possibilitam e permitem
o impulsionar da aprendizagem e autonomia, na medida em que estas informações se integram e geram respostas que levam o educando ao êxito.

Apart from being in the general community group, residents are also in a complex residential environment. There are housing complexes for the community in subsidized and commercial housing. The large number of citizen data in one housing complex raises many problems, both harmony problems, and administrative problems. The most fundamental problem is how the system records valid citizens and whether the contribution payment system is accountable, valid, and transparent. The team of lecturers from Hamzanwadi University's Informatics Engineering Study Program is doing this service to help the management of RT 005 Lingkar Pratama build a free application system and collect data from citizens. So, it can help RT administrators record and manage complex residential residents' contributions. The method in this service is carried out in stages, starting with problem data analysis, socialization, and training. The results of this service are in the form of implementing applications that can already be used and assist RT admin officers in managing financial reports and information management of citizen data.

Environmental literacy is a part of education that helps students protect the environment by using or consuming nature and by understanding and solving environmental problems caused by actions that exploit the natural environment, forests, and other natural resources in the area. This activity tries to teach people more about the environment by growing hydroponically grown vegetables in the school to make the school a healthier and cleaner place. SDU Hamzanwadi has never enhanced environmental literacy through hydroponic activities; therefore, this should advance environmental preservation awareness. The method is implemented in three stages: 1) the planning stage includes field surveys, cooperation, and communication; 2) the implementation stage includes socialization and mentoring by the Lecturer Team in collaboration with Hamzanwadi University PGSD Students; 3) the monitoring and evaluation stage. The survey findings were shared with school partners, beginning with the principal and teachers. Then, an agreement is drafted pertinent to the school's conditions, notably hydroponics production. The outcomes of the activity demonstrated that 90% of the participants were able to conduct hydroponics directly. Some participants' mastery and comprehension reached 85%, and they could utilize the help material that had been developed. This is evident in the enhanced knowledge and abilities of the partners, as seen by the green and healthy plants. The production of hydroponics necessitates considerable skill and knowledge as well as a sizeable financial investment. Thus, careful planning is required. Hydroponics is not only an educational tool for environmental literacy but may also beautify and green the school environment.

The problem of quantity of peanut shell waste is still the main problem that has an impact on the pile of peanut shell waste in large quantities. As a peanut cultivation center, this is a critical issue in Bulu Ulaweng Village. The community reduces piles of peanut waste by burning or disposing it in the river. This method will undoubtedly cause air and water pollution, impacting environmental ecosystems, especially rivers. So, this community service is planned with the PKK Women's Group in Bulu Ulaweng Village, Patimpeng District, Bone Regency, South Sulawesi Province. The goal is to deal with the problem of waste peanut shells and improve the knowledge and skills of the partners. The method of implementing the activity includes counseling using Tudang Sipulung. The training is carried out offline (product manufacturing, packaging, and labeling) and provides solutions to the problems encountered. The community service activities' results show that partners can process peanut shell waste into organic fertilizer. The resulting product can be a superior product for Bulu Ulaweng Village. It can be an example for neighboring villages and other areas with the same problem of reducing peanut shell waste. Bulu Ulaweng Village cannot only overcome the accumulation of peanut shell waste problem but other villages too. Therefore, this activity aligns with the government's program to create healthy and prosperous villages as a form of sustainable development goals proclaimed by the government through villages.
