Authors: Salamon-Albert Éva , Horváth Ferenc
Published: January 2023

A systematic overview and landscape pattern of abandoned fields and plant invasion according to semi-natural habitats in Külső-Somogy are summarized based on MÉTA method. Areal distribution of abandoned fields and plant invasion was mostly overlapping, centres were revealed from the North-Western and South-Eastern parts. Dry and semi-dry grasslands (e.g. E habitats) were significant to abandoned fields and/or set of alien species, mesic deciduous woodlands (e.g. K2), dry and rocky woodlands (e.g. L2a) and bush vegetation (e.g. P2a and P2b) to the centres of plant invasion. Cover of threatened habitat types, number and ratio of invasive species were analysed and compared to national results. Average threatening of real semi-natural habitats were greater in Külső-Somogy than similar ones at national scale. Hardly threatened habitat types were among woodlands in great proportion. Most invaded semi-natural habitats are riverine shrublands and woodlands, marshes, mesic deciduous woodlands in lowlands, dry open Quercus woodlands and rocky woodlands. Dry closed Quercus woodlands, colline and montane hay meadows and euhydrophyte habitats were the least invaded groups. Among alien species Robinia pseudo-acacia, Solidago spp., Ailanthus altissima and some other species were the most significant. Prunus serotina is sporadic, Reynoutria spp. is absent in the region. By the analyses a regional order of invasive species importance was created. It is clearly verifiable that plant invasion is a more serious problem than spreading of abandoned fields in Külső-Somogy region.

Published: January 2023

In our research, the salt stress of two sweet corn hybrids (Tyson and Sweetstar) was induced by irrigation with saline water in a pot experiment. We studied the possibility of the decrease of the negative effects of salt stress by applying 1-Triacontanol (TRIA) in various (3, 6, and 9 μM) doses. Plant height, raw biomass, root biomass, parameters characterizing the photosynthetic activity (SPAD, NDVI, chlorophyll content), and proline content were determined in order to quantify the effect of the TRIA treatment on salt tolerance. We concluded that triacontanol treatments had a positive effect on the studied parameters of both hybrids.

Published: January 2023

This study investigated farmers’ use of sustainable production practices for yellow pepper crop in the Nsukka agricultural zone, Enugu State, Nigeria. Multi-stage sampling procedure was used in selecting 135 farmers and interview schedule using structured questionnaires was employed for data collection. Data generated were analysed with SPSS software using frequency and percentage, mean scores, standard deviation, factor analysis, and logistic regression. Findings revealed that the majority (91.1%) of the yellow pepper farmers had moderate knowledge on sustainable production practices and that some of the practices used were mass selection (97.0%), use of poultry manure (95.60%), use of improved varieties of yellow pepper (94.0%), crop rotation practices (91.10%), and minimum use of agrochemicals (78.50). Among the factors considered to be potential determinants of farmers’ use of sustainable production practices, only sex was statistically significant, at 5% level. Also, findings indicated that technical, institutional, and economic constraints affected farmers’ use of sustainable production practices. Furthermore, results indicated that sustainable production practices could be enhanced through the use of improved seeds (85.5%), access to credit facilities (77.8%), access to extension services (71.8%), and training of farmers (68.9%). The study therefore recommends that government and private sectors should provide services that will facilitate the development of sustainable production practices of Nsukka yellow pepper crop, as this will have a long-term effect on productivity and the production environment.

Published: January 2023

Saline conditions affect plant development and significantly reduce its yield. Maize (Zea mays) is the one of main cash crops in Pakistan, and unfavourable saline conditions are among the core reasons for its reduced productivity, especially in arid and semi-arid regions. The identification of potential genotypes is essential for genetic modifications. By considering this situation, the current experiment was conducted to evaluate the inbred maize lines under different salinity levels. We evaluated ten maize inbred maize lines at seedling stage under three salinity levels (0 mM, 75 mM, and 125 mM NaCl). The highly significant (p ≤ 0.001) differences in inbred lines, salinity levels, and in their interaction were revealed by analysis of variance results for most of the traits. The results indicated that inbred lines D-135 and NCIL-20-4 performed better under saline conditions. Our results showed that salinity severely affects seedling growth. Accordingly, a significant decline was observed in root length, shoot length, root weight, and shoot weight, and these traits offered the maximum values for heritability and genetic advance. From the correlation and path coefficient analysis, it has been concluded that root length, shoot length, fresh root weight, and root density are the traits that can be beneficial for the identification of better germplasms under saline conditions and that are helpful for improving tolerance against saline conditions.

Electrolyte leakage (EL) is the method commonly used to test the cell membrane integrity of plants under stress conditions. The cells of the leaf may be damaged by ozone (O3) entering the intercellular space as an oxidative stress agent. The modified EL method was used to test the oxidative stability (OxS) of plant tissue against O3-induced oxidative stress. The modification includes simulation of the artificial oxidative stress by additional ozonation of plant samples in the laboratory chamber. This modified EL method was applied to Pinus mugo Turra needle samples collected in the subalpine zone of the High Tatra Mts (Western Carpathians), in the years 2019 and 2020. Changes in the chemical composition of samples after artificial ozonation were traced by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) analysis. In addition, O3 uptake through open stomata was estimated by calculation of the modelled ozone dose (MO3D). We also conducted an inspection of visible injury (VIN) on the needle surface focused on the occurrence of O3-induced symptoms and biotic harmful agents. Regarding OxS results as well as VIN indices, P. mugo needles showed relatively low sensitivity to oxidative stress induced by O3. Therefore MO3D in a range between 14 and 16 mmol m−2 can be considered as O3 dose with minor phytotoxic effect on P. mugo growing in the mountains of central-eastern Europe.
The changing land use and land cover in the Mediterranean Basin: implications on forest ecosystem services
Authors: Appiagyei Bright Danso , Belhoucine-Guezouli Latifa , Bessah Enoch , Morsli Boutkhil
Published: January 2023

The Mediterranean Basin covers more than 2 million square kilometres and is surrounded by three continents: Africa, Asia, and Europe. It is home to more than 500 million people and is projected to reach 670 million by 2050. The basin is rich in species diversity, with a great wealth of endemism. The supply of ecosystem services is greatly challenged due to the trend of land use and land cover (LULC) change coupled with other global change drivers. The current study thoroughly reviewed the existing body of knowledge on the impacts of LULC change on forest ecosystem services. The LULC change is driven by synergetic factor combinations of urbanization, population increase, agricultural land abandonment and deforestation putting additional strain on forest ecosystem services. The review shows the potential impacts on biodiversity as well as ecosystem services such as wood and non-wood forest products, water resources, and carbon stock. Moreover, there is evidence showing the threats of LULC change to saproxylic beetle species, a key agent in the nutrient cycling process, posing a significant risk to a nutrient-deficient ecosystem. Therefore, there is a need to mitigate the challenges posed by LULC change and adapt forest management practices to impending changes to sustain the provision of ecosystem goods and services.

Consumer Behavior and Competition-Factors of a Successful Marketing Strategy
Authors: Duralia Oana
Published: January 2023

It is well known that the level of competition in an industry is a key determinant of the marketing strategy for the bidders participating in a market. On the other hand, the consumers’ reactions to the actions of organizations are an indicator to follow when defining the companies’ marketing strategies. The marketing approach to competition issues can be seen differently from an economic theory angle. Thus, while the economic theory argues that finding similar ways of acting is the key to securing a similar position on the market, the marketing theory emphasizes differentiation from competition, even an extreme differentiation from competition, which ensures a favorable positioning in the minds of consumers. This paper aims to explain the link between the level of competition on a market, an organization’s marketing strategy and consumer behavior, as a vector of response to the actions taken by the organization as a supplier, but also as a direct participant in the shaping of the company’s market strategy. The approach will be a theoretical one, coupled with research from secondary data sources that will highlight how European consumers perceive competition in the current economic context.
Digital Technologies and the Performance of Small and Medium Enterprises
Authors: Roman Angela , Rusu Valentina Diana
Published: January 2023

The profound negative effects of the current pandemic crisis on firms, especially small and medium-sized ones, have forced them to rethink their business models. In order to survive and compete, many businesses have focused on adopting and using digital technologies. Several studies have shown that digital technologies could facilitate business continuity and increase their resilience to shocks. Starting from the fact that SMEs are an important source of innovation and the predominant form of business organization, the European Commission has repeatedly emphasized the importance of digital business transformation and the need to support the digitalisation of SMEs. Our study aims to analyse the degree of digitalisation of SMEs in EU countries and the obstacles they face in digitizing their business. In addition, we aim to examine the extent to which the use of various forms of digital technology could stimulate the growth of SME performance. The analysis covers the 27 EU member states and is mainly based on data provided by the European Commission and the OECD, as well as information provided by European Investment Bank surveys. Our paper complements the literature focused on the digitization of SMEs, especially by highlighting the gaps between EU countries in terms of digitization of the SME sector, but also by empirically examining the impact of digital technologies on the performance of SMEs in EU countries. Through its content, our study emphasizes the crucial importance of digitizing SMEs so that these companies are drivers of economic growth and development of countries. The results of our research may be of interest to both researchers concerned with business digitalisation and decision-makers at various levels, who should prioritize the identification of appropriate measures to stimulate digital innovation and investment in information and communication technology infrastructure.
Improving Customer Satisfaction for SMES in Emerging Countries: A Comparative Study of Hungary and Indonesia
Authors: Setyaningsih Santi , Kelle Peter
Published: January 2023

Improving Customer Satisfaction (CS) is a key strategical goal for companies, especially for Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises (SMEs). The objective of this research is to find and rank the major factors supporting CS. We focus on SMEs in two emerging markets located in two countries with different geographical and supply chain environments. We test a conceptual framework that includes several factors supporting CS. The data were collected from Hungarian and Indonesian SMEs by online questionnaire. We used statistical analysis such as Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA), Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA), and Structural Equation Model (SEM) to test our model and hypothesis. Based on the survey of the top management of the SMEs, the three factors that have a significant positive effect on CS in both countries are Market Pressure (MP), Organizational Culture (OC), and Corporate Strategy (CStra). The rank order is MP followed by OC and CStra in Hungary; MP, CStra, and OC for Indonesia. Even though many scholars discussed CS, a few studies have shown the connection between CS and the successful implementation of SCM. Evaluating and ranking the supporting factors contributes to the literature and business practice of SME decision-making related to SCM.

This study looked at visitor experience and satisfaction on museum education in Ghana. Visiting and studying nine museums under the Ghana Museums and Monument Board (GMMB) and using both qualitative and quantitative approaches, the study revealed that visitor experiences, satisfaction, and education within museums under GMMB are unsatisfactory. There are issues with teaching methods, the state of exhibits and exhibition styles and a challenge of low possibility for visitor revisit. There is the need to commit resources to strengthen museums and the introduction of activities which would serve as grounds for museum learning. A strong engagement of visitor education in a positive, socio-cultural, and conducive learning atmosphere is very much expedient. The paper recommended a framework of diversity and inclusion that would support the creation of meaningful visitor experiences and enhance museum education in Ghana. Museum di Ghana: Pendidikan, Pengalaman, dan Kepuasan Pengunjung Abstrak Studi ini melihat pengalaman dan kepuasan pengunjung terhadap pendidikan museum di Ghana.

South Java Sea are regions that have quite complex dynamics because they are influenced by several factors, both regionally and globally. The influence certainly affects the variations in oceanographic features such as Sea Surface Temperature (SST), Sea Surface Height (SSH), and Chlorophyll-a concentration. Observation of oceanographic feature at this time has many methods, one of them by remote sensing. The purpose of this study is to calculate the variation of oceanographic conditions based on satellite data and its correlation with field data. The results show that the SPL and ATPL data with the field data have a fairly good relationship, where the value of R2 reaches 0.74 and 0.9. In general, the variation of oceanographic data has the same pattern that is changing seasonally. SST and SSH data are at their maximum in the January-March period, while the minimum is July-September. While the concentration of chlorophyll-a is at the maximum condition in July-September and minimum in January-March. This is thought to be an upwelling phenomenon that occurred in July-September due to the monsoon wind movement. Upwelling index calculation results based on wind data show that in the period June to September is the peak of the upwelling phenomenon.
