Authors: Ghahremani-Nahr Javid , Aliahmadi Alireza , Nozari Hamed
Published: June 2023

The increasing expansion of the needs of human beings and societies has caused various aspects of human life and societies to face serious challenges and be considered. Supply chain organizations operate in a market in today's global environment that is increasingly complex and dynamic in nature. Stable supply chains are inevitable to meet drastic changes in customer needs. Research has shown that manufacturing companies need to accelerate the shift from focus to sustainability and use technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT) and blockchain to achieve the organization's goal. In this regard, by expanding the capabilities of the blockchain under the four main areas (1) designing incentive and tokenization mechanisms to promote green consumer behavior; (2) increase visibility throughout the product life cycle; (3) increase system efficiency while reducing development and operating costs; And (4) strengthen the monitoring of sustainability and performance reporting in supply chain networks; it can be seen that the supply chain based on these transformational technologies can play a colorful role in creating stability and a green and efficient supply chain. In this study, the potential opportunities in the IoT to create a sustainable supply chain are discussed. Also, based on this study, a framework has been proposed to show the relationships and effects of the constituent elements of a stable supply chain system based on the Internet of Things and blockchain. The conceptual framework is designed with an emphasis on sustainable development, collaboration and management and can provide a good perspective for implementing a sustainable supply chain based on technology

The purpose of this paper is to provide information related to waste technology processing. The study was conducted using a literature review technique. This review provides an in-depth discussion of the impact and the recent breakthrough in improving problems arising from the generation and disposal of soiled diapers. Various technologies were highlighted, especially the safer use and cleaner technology, such as biodegradation and composting to maximizing recycle process at a cheaper cost. Moreover, pyrolysis shows an opportunity to improve the efficiency of the recycling process used diapers. Finally, recycling is achievable with an economic incentive if the costs of a series of complicated processes are lower than the value of the end product. Therefore, the best technology for recycling becomes a big consideration. The consideration of which process to use may vary from national and industrial outlook in terms of rate of return, total cost, and environmental. The challenge of recycling is to reduce the cost of waste treatment while providing high-quality final products and need to focus on developing practical and environmentally friendly recovery methods.

This paper examines the impact of financial deepening on economic growth in Nigeria from 1982 – 2019. The objective of the study is to look at the impact of credit to private sector, money supply and gross domestic savings on the economic growth in Nigeria. Secondary data were collected based on the model used in the research work and unit root test was conducted on the data to test their stationary, after which we perform co-integration test to analyze the long run relationship among the variables. The result obtained from our empirical analysis shows that all financial deepening variables possesses a significant impact on the economic growth in Nigeria, that is, money supply, credit to private sector and gross domestic savings financial deepening proxies has significant and positive effect on economic growth. The study therefore recommends that government and the monetary authorities should make policies which would help to boost the saving culture of the people. This could be done by increasing the deposit rate which would lure the people to deposit their money in banks thereby increasing the supply of loanable funds. This would lead to a fall in interest rate and eventually rise in investment.

Energy Storage for High Speed Trains: Economical and Energy Saving Evaluation
Authors: Sertsöz Mine
Published: June 2023

Increasing the utilization rate of regenerative braking energy in rail systems is one of the ongoing applications increasing in significance in recent years. In rail systems, braking is made with two ways, mechanical and electrical. While the energy released due to mechanical braking cannot be recovered, the energy released due to electrical braking can be reused as regenerative braking energy. This regenerative braking energy varies according to the dynamics of the system and it can be given back to the grid, stored in storage devices or burned in resistors (it is not desired). This study develops a novelty algorithm within the scope of this objective and provides the calculation of the regenerative braking energy recovery rate and then making a decision for storage or back to grid of this energy. Afterwards, the regenerative braking energy was calculated with the help of this algorithm for Eskisehir-Ankara and Ankara-Eskisehir trips in two different passengers (load) scenarios, using the YHT 65000 high-speed train, which was chosen as a case study. Then, with a decision maker added to this classical regenerative braking energy algorithm, it will be decided whether this energy will be stored or forward back into the grid for the purpose of providing non-harmonic energy to the grid.

Authors: M Moni , G Raju , M P Silpa Krishnan
Published: June 2023

Cryptocurrencies, especially Bitcoin, is a hot commodity today. High volatility is a common feature of almost all the cryptocurrencies in the world. A systematic exploration and examination of the volatility of cryptos enables the investor to earn more on their investments. After the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, the crypto market witnessed a highly volatile situation with a huge increase in price. The pandemic also affected the volatility and return of Bitcoin. This research aims to analyse and compare the risk and volatility characteristics of Bitcoin after the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. The study further tests the capacity of several autoregressive models, such as ARMA, GARCH, EGARCH, and TARCH in estimating and evaluating the return and volatility associated with Bitcoin. Identified models were tested and compared with the help of Akaike information criteria (AIC) and Schwarz information criteria (SIC). For this article, the data of daily adjusted closing price of Bitcoin INR (BTC-INR) were collected from Yahoo Finance during the period January, 2017 to December, 2021. We witnessed a huge change in the daily average return of Bitcoin after the COVID-19 outbreak. Also, we identified TARCH (1, 1) as the best model in the ARCH family for evaluating and estimating volatility and ARMA (10, 10) as the best model for predicting the return of Bitcoin.
Role of NPA Provisions in Financial Soundness and Profitability: A study on Primary Co-operative Agricultural and Rural Development Banks in Kollam District, Kerala
Authors: Jerome Jincy R , Nair Asha R
Published: June 2023

Primary Co-operative Agricultural and Rural Development Banks (PCARDBs) means a society has an area of operation confined to a taluk and the principal object of which is to provide long-term credit for agricultural and rural development. One of the dangerous problems faced by co-operative banking is the inability of the borrower to repay their overdue interest and principal, leading to Non-performing Assets (NPA). The presence of NPA had an adverse effect on the profitability and existence of PCARDBs, but they are still surviving with the help of provisions created against NPA. Provisioning means the portion of income set aside by the bank to meet contingent losses that may arise in the event of non-recovery of loans. By analysing the data collected from the financial statements of the six PCARDBs in Kollam district, it can be understood that the growth in NPA involves the necessity of provisions which bring down the overall profitability of the bank. But if the banks are capable to create such provisions from net profit, it helps to maintain the financial soundness of banks. The study is based on the data collected from financial statements of six PCARDBs in Kollam District and the results show higher provisioning for overdue which results net loss in the financial statements of banks

Published: June 2023

Number of spikes per unit area in yield trials with winter wheat cultivars and two levels of Nitrogen fertilization, was monitored during 2016 to 2018 at the National Agricultural Research and Development Institute at Fundulea. The aim was to estimate the contribution of this yield component to wheat grain yield, and the effects of cultivars, Nitrogen fertilization and years to the variation of spike number in the continental climate of South Romania. The percentages of yield variation that could be explained by the variation of spike number were on average about 28% with N fertilization and almost 0 without N fertilization The main sources of variation in the number of spikes per m-2 were the different conditions of the years, followed by the Nitrogen fertilization and by the differences between cultivars, while none of the interactions were significant. Several cultivars, like Unitar, Ursita and Şimnic 60, were noticed with superior number of spikes in most conditions. Bezostaya 1, the only non Rht-B1b cultivar in the study, showed a much lower yield than could have been expected from its relatively high number of spikes. The numbers of spikes at the two levels of Nitrogen fertilization were highly correlated (r=0.68**), but Şimnic 60 deviated significantly from the general regression, suggesting that it might have the ability to form more spikes at lower Nitrogen availability.

Published: June 2023

Grain protein content (GPC) is the main quality trait of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) because this parameter is a decisive component of seed quality for malt industry. Reaching the level of protein concentration required by the raw industry is very difficult, due to the negative correlation with the yield level. Seventeen winter barley genotypes (varieties and breeding lines), created at NARDI Fundulea during 2003-2017, known as having different grain protein contents, were tested with and without nitrogen fertilization in yield trials at NARDI Fundulea in 2014, 2015 and 2016. Weather conditions during the testing period was reflected by the variation of average yield of the trial from 3861 to 7722 kg/ha (unfertilized) and 4748 kg/ha to 9492 kg/ha (fertilized) and of the average grain protein content from 9.6% to 14.8% (unfertilized) and 10.3% to 15.4% (fertilized). Correlation between grain protein content and yield was significantly negative under unfertilized condition in two years (2014 and 2016) and under nitrogen fertilization in 2016 only. The genotypes with higher GPC in the grains and low yield under nitrogen fertilization are not adequate for use in breeding for improved protein content. Positive and negative deviations from the regression of grain protein content on grain yield were found, several varieties and lines combining high yields and high grain protein content and few varieties and lines combining high yields and low grain protein content. Differences between protein contents with and without nitrogen fertilization were smaller in some varieties and new lines and also presented negative deviations. The information obtained in this study might be useful in breeding new varieties combining low grain protein content and high grain yield.

Published: June 2023

Genetic resources in sunflower, which could to be used as base of creating new inbred lines or as donor sources for genes controlling different characteristics in the inbred lines breeding, are made up of old or new varieties, hybrids and inbred lines, induced mutations, synthetic populations, as well as sunflower wild species. For improving sunflower resistance to the main diseases all these genetic resources can be used. In the sunflower breeding program of the National Agricultural Research & Development Institute (NARDI) Fundulea, Romania, we have used especially varieties, hybrids, inbred lines and sunflower wild species. The varieties and inbred lines were used for creating synthetic populations, which formed the base of obtaining new inbred lines resistant to Plasmopara halstedii (genes for resistance to different races of this pathogen). Sunflower wild species have been used for crossing with cultivated sunflower, obtaining interspecific hybrids, which allowed creating different donor sources of genes for resistance to Plasmopara halstedii, as well as to Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. We obtained some populations which are still in the breeding process for creating inbred lines with high resistance to Phoma macdonaldii and Phomopsis helianthi pathogens. We improved the resistance of some lines with good agronomic traits, to different diseases. The new inbred lines obtained by using different genetic resources were studied as general and specific combining ability for the seed yield and for oil content. Most of them were significantly superior as general combining ability for the seed yield or for oil content, or for both of them.

Published: June 2023

Alfalfa is generally considered resistant to drought, but its yield may fluctuate appreciably under drought conditions. The strategies for sustainable use of water and drought resistance improvement based on the physiological traits are important and physiological approaches should be integrated in conventional breeding. Research was performed on 74 alfalfa genotypes under vegetation house conditions at two watering levels. The objective was to identify the available genetic variation and to establish efficient testing methods for characters which might positively influence alfalfa performance under drought conditions. Our research focused on plant height, number of shoots, stomatal resistance and biomass yield. The results showed that for drought tolerant genotypes the plant height and number of shoots were reduced less than in sensitive ones. The stomatal resistance was higher for sensitive genotypes than for resistant ones, but there were some sensitive genotypes with low stomatal resistance and vice versa, which opens new opportunities to improve drought resistance. The results showed that the stomatal resistance of young plants was correlated with yield both under optimal conditions and stress conditions, indicating that stomatal resistance has a very significant impact on production both under stress and optimum conditions.

Published: June 2023

The main aim of the study was to assess the profit increase in maize, starting from the yield response according to the nitrogen quantity applied on different PK backgrounds. Answers were searched for on the causes for the low interest in applying nitrogen fertilizers for maize in Romania. Maize yield response curves were determined according to quantities of N and PK, respectively, based on results of yield trials performed at the Didactic Station Timisoara of Banat`s University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, during the period between 2013 and 2015. The production functions obtained facilitated the determination of adjusted yield values, based on the N quantities in the 0-200 kg range, active ingredient (a.i.) ha-1 for multiples of 50 for different PK levels, within the 0-150 kg range, a.i. ha-1 . Four distinct cases were analyzed, the average during 2013-2015 and each year independently. The slope (m), indicating the tangent the straight line creates with the abscissa axis, represented an indicator of the growth speed of the dynamic process represented by the yield in relation with the allotted N and PK doses. The slope related to the PK = 0 up to PK = 150 levels, displayed a growing trend (m2013-2015 = 11.4-23.4; m2013 = 11.2-27.73; m2014 = 9.8-24.8; m2015 = 13.1-19.1), as the four sets of data analyzed strengthen the level of trust in a well-known principle of physiology and nutrition of plants - the synergic effect of nutrition factors. Such results confirm, as a potential cause for the low interest of some farmers for intensive N fertilization, the particular soil fund reduced in P and K, taking into account the lack of agricultural support policies with medium and long-term effects.

Published: June 2023

Soybean can play an important role in securing the European protein resources. Transylvania Plain is a very favourable area for soybean crop. To optimise the crop management in these conditions, thirteen soybean cultivars (9 created at Agricultural Research and Development Station Turda and 4 of foreign origin) were studied with different plant densities and row spacing, in the specific environment of Transylvanian Plain. The yield increased by increasing the plant density up to 60 germinating seeds m-2, after which yield declined at the highest plant density. 60 g.s. m-2 plant population recorded the highest positive significant differences (approximately 10%), as compared to the average of all tested plant densities. The distance of 25 cm between rows produced a significantly higher yield as compared with the average of the trial. The climatic conditions influenced very significantly the yield variation (55.95%) while the genotypes, plant populations, and distances between rows had a statistically significantly lower influence (8.72%, 4.42% and 1.57%) compared to the effect of climatic conditions. The interaction between genotype and plant density contributed significantly (2.26%) to grain yield per unit area, while the interaction between plant density and row spacing had a statistically not significant effect of 1.09%).

Published: June 2023

Mint (Mentha spp.), one of the most used plants in traditional medicine, is cultivated since antiquity, being mentioned by ancient writings. Besides its use for improving the human health, mint extracts are found in food, cosmetics, detergents, perfumes, biopesticides, etc. Due to its multiple benefits mint consumption has increased continuously in the last years. Besides the interest in mint yield, another interesting trait of this species is the antioxidant activity and the quality of essential oils. According to some research in the field, using water given by irrigation and fertilization leads to an increase of green mass production, but the level of essential oils remains the same. The aims of the present research were to determine the effects of irrigation, fertilization and species over the quality of mint and to identify the best matches of the experimental factors for increasing the antioxidants and essential oils content. Plant material was represented by M. spicata, M. piperita and M. suaveolens. Management followed the growing season of mint plants both in non-irrigated and irrigated conditions, with base fertilization and usage of Lignohumate. The analysis of samples was performed using Photochem where photochemical excitation of free radicals is combined with luminometric detection. The composition of the essential oil was determined by Gas chromatography with flame ionisation detector GC-FID. The research concludes that mint quality increased in conditions of no irrigation. For high phytonutrient content it is recommended to cultivate M. piperita, because it has the highest antioxidants content. M. spicata presented the essential oil with the best content of alcohols, esters and aromatic compounds. M. suaveolens reached the best level of esters, aldehydes and aromatic compounds only in the case of fertilization with Lignohumate.
Research Regardig the Agriproductive Properties of the Typical Reddish Preluvosol Between Jiu and Olt Rivers and Its Evolution from 1997 – 2017 in Farms and Agritouristic Households

Published: June 2023

The aim of the research was to identify the main agriproductive properties of the typical reddish preluvosol in the area between Jiu and Olt rivers and to follow its evolution over a period of 20 years, in order to obtain relevant results. This area was chosen as studies had been made since 1993, when rigorous research began to develop into a doctoral thesis. Having well documented and interpreted baseline data, we considered it appropriate to come up with new research in the respective area after a sufficiently long period of time, to identify relevant changes at the level of the main agriproducts of this type of soil. Based on the results of the analyses and their interpretation, we found that at this level of soil there were no substantial changes during this period, considered short in regard to the genesis and the evolution of a type of soil. Moreover, due to the presence of farms and agritouristic households in this perimeter, we considered it wise to carry out research into the presence and concentration of the more common heavy metals. From the main research results we found that several heavy metals such as chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), nickel (Ni), zinc (Zn), cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb) are indeed present, but their concentration does not exceed the normal limits, except for chromium, which slightly exceeds this limit, but still is far below the alert threshold. The results highlight that agricultural producers can obtain high quality agrifood products, that do not pose any safety and traceability risks, and that can be offered to potential tourists without any concerns.

Published: June 2023

A study was performed in the North-West of Transylvania to test the reaction of certain parental forms of maize hybrids (single hybrids and inbred lines) to the following risks: simulated late spring frost in two stages and simulated hail in four stages. Being able to quantify the effects of these phenomena on maize makes it possible to estimate the losses that are involved, losses related to yield, crop tolerance and crop production costs. In 2014, due to the effect of frost, yield losses were from 8% up to 51% in hybrids and from 12% up to 70% in inbred lines. Simulated hail caused losses from 1% up to 71% in hybrids and from 0.5% up to 70% in inbred lines. In 2015, simulated frost caused a yield decrease from 43% up to 71% for hybrids and 76% for inbred lines. Frost and hail in early stages produced smaller losses, but if these risks appeared later or with higher intensity the yield decreases were significantly higher. Breaking resistance was assessed before harvest. In a favourable year, after simulating these mentioned risks, the percent of erect plants was lower compared to a drought year when the yield was smaller. The influence of frost and hail combined with drought during pollination could seriously affect the yield of maize parental genotypes. Within this study, the parental genotypes of maize used showed a remarkable re-growth capacity in early stages, being able to adapt to stressful weather condition.

Published: June 2023

Almost all countries in the world, including Indonesia, have been affected by the spread of COVID-19. As a response, several efforts and solutions have been implemented to avoid the negative impacts of this pandemic. In the context of Indonesia, for example, these include short-term solutions by limiting social contacts and human mobility with national or regional lockdowns. The solutions are surely not an easy way to be implemented in this archipelagic country that has many islands. The initial spread of COVID-19 back in March 2020 had stopped many economic activities in many Indonesian regions, especially in the urban areas. At the end of 2020, when the population mobility was started to be lifted, the spread of Covid-19 became increasingly out of control. Therefore, large-scale social restrictions have once again been implemented, especially in the most populated islands of Java and Bali. This paper aims to investigate the relationship between short-term solutions, human mobility and the spread of Covid-19 in Indonesia. The analyses use data on the trends of Covid-19 cases and human mobility that have been collected by the National Statistical Office (BPS) and the National Task Force (Satuan Tugas/Satgas) on handling Covid-19. The results found that there are strong relationships between human mobility and the increase of Covid-19 cases. Strong enforcement of public policy on how health protocol must be adhering in practices has given a remarkable impact on transmitted diseases on transportation.
