Funeral and Memorial Rites and the Role of Ritual Specialists Among Russian-Yurlians
Authors: Королёва С.Ю. , Тихонова М.А.
Published: December 2023

В  статье на примере одной микролокальной традиции показано состояние похоронно-поминальной обрядности юрлинцев  — этнографической группы русских, проживающих в коми-пермяцком окружении. Материалом послужили интервью с ритуальным специалистом с. Усть-Зула Пермского края и наблюдение домашнего поминовения в 2013 г. На обследованной территории сохраняются традиционные ритуалы и  диалектная обрядовая терминология, архаичный пласт которых содержит семантику дороги на тот свет (сбор «котомочки» для умершего, проводы души и т.п.). Местная кухня включает блюда, вышедшие из повседневного рациона, но сохраняющие статус ритуальной пищи. Усложненный характер юрлинской обрядности делает востребованной фигуру ритуального специалиста — распорядителя, знатока традиционной обрядовой лирики и фольклоризованных поминальных молитв. Важную роль в обряде играют обращения к умершему, которые выстраиваются из формульных выражений, стилистически связанных с молитвами, заговорами, причетами; владение навыком такого разговора, как и комплексом жанров похоронно-поминального фольклора, является показателем мастерства сельского ритуального специалиста. Домашнее поминовение имеет четкую структуру, но является гибкой обрядовой формой, которая может адаптироваться к особым случаям и приобретать «многослойную» прагматику (просьба о прощении у умерших за нарушение ритуальной нормы, публичное покаяние, укрепление статуса ритуального специалиста и др.).

This article considers the current state of funeral and memorial rites of the Yurlians, a group of Russians living in the Komi-Permyak area. It describes traditions of the village of Ust-Zula in the Perm region, and is based on interviews with ritual specialists and the observation of home memorial services carried out in 2013. In the territory under investigation, traditional rites and ritual terminology in dialect are well preserved. The archaic linguistic stratum includes the semantics of a road to another world (packing a “bag” for the deceased, seeing the soul out, etc.). Yurlian cuisine contains dishes that have gone out of everyday use but have the status of ritual food. The complicated character of the Yurlian ritual creates a need for a ritual specialist. This is a kind of manager, a connoisseur of traditional ceremonial lyrics and folklorized funeral prayers. An important role in the ceremony is played by conversation with the deceased, which can be built up from formulaic expressions stylistically related to prayers, spells, and laments. Skill in leading such conversations, as well as in other genres of funeral folklore, is part of the “professional mastery” of a rural ritual specialist. Home memorial rite has a stable structure, but it turns out to be a flexible ritual form that can adapt to special cases and acquire “multi-layered” pragmatics (asking for forgiveness from the deceased, for public repentance, strengthening the status of a ritual specialist, etc.).
Moscow Conservatory Folk Expeditions to the Starodubsky Region in the 1950s (On the History of Field Study Under the Leadership of Klyment Kvitka)
Authors: Битерякова Е.В.
Published: December 2023

Статья посвящена экспедициям Московской консерватории в  Стародубский район Брянской области, инициированным профессором К.В. Квиткой в  1950-е гг. Уникальные аудиозаписи, многочисленные рукописные полевые заметки и фотодокументы на протяжении ряда десятилетий оставались неопубликованными и  не введенными в  научный обиход. Между тем материалы, собранные сотрудниками Кабинета по изучению музыкального творчества народов СССР Л.А. Бачинским и  К.Г. Свитовой, сохраняют научную и  художественную ценность в  наши дни, а  их совместная работа может быть вписана в историю отечественной фольклористики как один из важнейших ее эпизодов. На основе изучения фонограмм и  рукописных документов, хранящихся в  фондах Научного центра народной музыки им. К.В. Квитки, автором статьи воссозданы обстоятельства полевой работы в 1950-е гг., уточнены ее цели и задачи, а также дана общая оценка материалов и итогов. Главными достижениями собирателей признаны высококачественная запись на студийной аппаратуре образцов ансамблевого пения и сольной инструментальной игры в период активного бытования местных народных традиций и фиксация значительного объема этнографических сведений.

This article is devoted to the expeditions of the Moscow Conservatory to the Starodubsky region of the Bryansk region in the 1950s, initiated by Prof. Klyment Kvitka. Their unique audio recordings, handwritten field notes and photographic documents have mostly remained unpublished and not been introduced into scholarly use. Still, these materials, collected by Leo Batchinsky and Klavdia Svitova, retain their scholarly and artistic value today, and their joint work can be inscribed in the history of Russian ethnomusicology as an important episode. On the basis of phonograms and handwritten documents stored in the Klyment Kvitka Research Center for Folk Music, the author analyzes the circumstances of this field work in the 1950s, clarifying its goals and objectives, and gives a general assessment of its results. Batchinsky and Svitova’s main achievements include high-quality recordings of ensemble singing and solo instrumentals, created during a time of active local folk traditions, and the collection of a significant amount of ethnographic information.
The Biography of Folklore Collector Helliodore Rusov and His Collection of Tales in “The Olonets Provincial Gazette”
Authors: Абросимова Д.Д.
Published: December 2023

Работа выполнена в русле одного из современных направлений фольклористики — изучения биографий и деятельности по собиранию и публикации фольклора провинциальных собирателей. С привлечением новых архивных материалов в статье «с нуля» реконструируется биография одного из таких рядовых собирателей первого десятилетия ХХ в., ветеринара по профессии И.А. Русова. Эта биография сама по себе довольно необычна в  силу неоднократной смены места жительства героя очерка: его перемещения по стране охватили окраины Российской империи, находившиеся в противоположных ее концах, а после революции и вовсе вышедшие за ее пределы. Как собиратель фольклора И.А. Русов опубликовал в газете «Олонецкие губернские ведомости» две подборки фольклорных текстов, заговоров и сказок. Сказки — фольклорный жанр, образцы которого редко публиковались на страницах олонецких периодических изданий. Помимо биографического исследования в статье сделана попытка определить место сказочных сюжетов, записанных ветеринаром, среди тех, что были известны в русской традиции. В результате автор приходит к выводу, что среди них есть не только распространенные, но и редкие сюжеты, требующие дальнейшего изучения.

One of the trends of contemporary folklore research is the study of provincial folklorists’ biographies, as well as their work collecting and publishing folklore. This article presents one such biography based on newly obtained archival materials concerning Helliodore Rusov, a veterinarian by profession. Rusov’s biography is quite unusual because of his many changes of residence; he moved from one corner of the Russian empire to another, and after the Revolution of 1917, left the country altogether. As a folklore collector, Rusov published two selections of texts in “The Olonets Provincial Gazette”, one of spells and the other of tales. The latter is a genre of folklore rarely published in periodicals from Olonets province. Together with a biographical study of Rusov, the article discusses the place of these tales’ plots within the Russian tradition. The author finds that among them there are not only common ones but also those that are rare and deserving of further study.

Más del 80% de países en desarrollo, presentan una problemática grave y sin control, de verter sus aguas residuales al ambiente, perjudicando todo ser viviente. Este estudio tuvo como objetivo “Evaluar la gestión de calidad en el tratamiento microbiológico en una PTAR para aprovecharlo en cultivos de tallo alto 2023”. La importancia recae en concientizar el uso correcto del agua y dar tratamiento microbiológico a las aguas residuales, asegurando que su efluente no supere los LMP, mediante productos EM (bajo costo), permitiendo reutilizarlas en cultivos de tallo alto, beneficiando a agricultores (incrementando sus ingresos); además debe ser lo menos perjudicial, evitando focos infecciosos, malos olores, etc. que recaigan sobre trabajadores (de la PTAR y/o aledaños a la zona), flora y fauna. La revisión sistemática de literatura con metodología PRISMA, permitió rescatar 32 estudios (extraídos de base de datos de USS, Repositorios, Dialnet, Google Scholar y Entidades del Estado). Los hallazgos afirman que, los adecuados procesos en una PTAR, mediante un protocolo de evaluación de calidad de aguas tratadas (por operarios calificados y con productos EM), eliminarán todo rastro contaminante. Dicho tratamiento será eficaz, empleando bloques fertilizados con biosólidos o con el proceso físico de luz UV. Como conclusión, la correcta evaluación de gestión de calidad en el tratamiento microbiológico en una PTAR, conlleva a familias enteras a estar seguras, siempre y cuando, el trabajo de las municipalidades y entidades (ATM) sea constante, garantizando el eficiente tratamiento dado a las aguas residuales y su posterior reutilización en cultivos de tallo alto.

The article presents the results of designing a digital model of the technogenically disturbed territories of the recultivation location of the “Taiga Field” of the Taldinskiy open pit of the Kemerovo region using near-earth aerial photography. To achieve this goal, such methods as descriptive, comparative geographical, geoinformation, and modeling methods were used. As a result of photogrammetric processing using specialized software Agisoft Metashape Professional, Credo Scan 3D and QGIS, orthophotomaps and digital terrain models were compiled. Morphometric characteristics of territories with an unplanned (relatively flat) relief of the recultivation site are determined, which are defined as experimental sites for the tasks of recultivation of the planned ecopolygon. On the basis of this, thematic map-schemes of the studied territory are constructed. The data obtained demonstrate that the territory of the experimental site is characterized by significant elevation differences. The theoretical and practical significance of the work is determined by the use of the results obtained for further prediction of the experiment during the recultivation of the ecopolygon, including the determination of morphometric characteristics of the territory with the determination of the probability of erosion of experimental sites, as well as the risk of low plant survival due to terrain features.

Published: December 2023

Heavy metals are the main pollutant substances in the environment. Heavy metals are a type of metal with high density and are very dangerous to living organisms, especially humans. Living organisms can adsorb the bioaccumulative and sedimentation of heavy metals that settle in water. Some compounds which found in wastewater including Cadmium (Cd), Copper (Cu), Iron (Fe), and Lead (Pb). These heavy metals cannot naturally degrade, additional processing is required before it being released into the environment. To prevent environmental pollution impacts, wastewater containing heavy metals must be handled properly and optimally. One method that can be applied for wastewater treatment is degradation by photocatalysis, utilizing the assistance of light. This research is to investigate the effect of pH and irradiation time on the degradation of Cd (cadmium), Cu (Copper), Fe (Iron), and Pb (Lead) heavy metals. To enhance the photocatalytic activity, the synthesis of ZnO-Zeolite nanocomposites was conducted. The ZnO-Zeolite nanocomposites produced were analyzed by SEM-EDX and XRD. The utilization of ZnO-Zeolite nanocomposites is deemed effective in reducing heavy metal concentrations. The degradation with Ultraviolet (UV) light exposure runs within 15-120 minutes with pH variation between 4-8. The degradation of heavy metal runs at 60 minutes and 120 minutes showing an optimum percentage removal of metals approaching 100%. The optimum pH values for Cd, Cu, Fe, and Pb are pH 8, pH 7, pH 6, and pH 8, respectively. The sequential metal degradation percentages are 98.96%, 95.43%, 96.07%, and 95.53%, respectively.

Published: December 2023

The enhancement of industrial green total factor productivity is pivotal for achieving high-quality and sustainable economic development. This study assesses China’s performance using the SBM-GML model, employing province-level panel data spanning from 2004 to 2020. Furthermore, we examine the influence of green finance and technological progress on industrial green total factor productivity using a spatial econometric model. The findings uncover that the relationship between the level of green financial development and industrial green total factor productivity follows a U-shaped curve. Initially, low levels of green financial development exert a suppressive effect on industrial green total factor productivity, proving ineffective in the short term. However, with the progression of green finance development, a positive and significant long-term impact on industrial green total factor productivity emerges. Moreover, technological progress demonstrates a noteworthy promotional effect on industrial green total factor productivity. The analysis delves deeper into revealing that industrial structure and environmental regulation intensity exhibit a significant negative relationship with industrial green total factor productivity. In contrast, both energy structure and education level showcase a substantial positive relationship with industrial green total factor productivity.

ANALISIS GAYA MUSIKAL PADA GENDING LAGU "JALI-JALI" KARYA KOKO KOSWARA
Authors: Yantiningtyas Vita Rindri , Sentosa Gempur
Published: December 2023

"Jali-Jali" is a musical composition in the form of sekar gending (song with musical accompaniment) composed by Koko Koswara in 1970 using gamelan salendro. The main musical pattern used the Sundanese musical pattern and the gambang Kromong musical pattern. The unique musical characteristics of the combination of two different musical backgrounds are the main attraction for researchers to study 2 (two) aspects, namely musical form and style. The theory used in this research is the science of musical form by Karl-Edmund Prier SJ and the style theory from Bruno Nettl. The science of musical form is used to analyze melodic aspects (motives, sequences, phrases, and periods), and Bruno Nettl's theory of style is used to analyze Koko Koswara's musical style. The results of this research illustrate that Koko adapted several characteristics of the original "Jali-Jali" song from Betawi was combined with Sundanese music into the "Jali-Jali" song as a result of his arrangement so that the unique composition that Koko created was very different from Koko's musical works another.
Motivational attitudes of personality of potential scientific and technical elite of Russia
Authors: Karabuschenko N. B. , Bobkov A. N. , Shcherbakova E. E.
Published: December 2023

Introduction. The article presents a theoretical analysis of the need-motivational sphere of the individual, identifying its most important features. The purpose of this analysis was to reveal and substantiate such a substantive component of the theoretical model of the psychology of the subject of the modern scientific and engineering elite as the need-motivational one. To substantiate and test the theoretical model, a comprehensive empirical study was carried out aimed at studying the psychological characteristics of the personality of a representative of the scientific and technical community. Particular emphasis was placed on the study of promising youth (students).

Materials and Methods. The following psychodiagnostic tools were used in the study: diagnostics of socio-psychological attitudes of the individual in the motivational-need sphere by O.F. Potemkina, “coping test” (the technique was developed by R. Lazarus and S. Folkman, adapted by T.L. Kryukova, E.V. Kuftyak, M.S. Zamyshlyaeva), emotional intelligence test by D.V. Lyusin (EmIn). A comparative analysis of the results obtained was carried out using methods of mathematical statistics (Kruskal-Wallis H test), and correlation analysis (Spearman) was also used. The study sample consisted of first-year engineering and technical students of the National Research Nuclear University "MEPhI" in the amount of 111 people, who were distributed into 3 groups: Institute of Nanotechnologies in Electronics, Spintronics and Photonics (INTEL) – 15 people; Engineering Physics Institute of Biomedicine (IFIB) – 27 people; Institute of Laser and Plasma Technologies (LAPLAZ) – 69 people.

Results. Comparative data analysis showed differences between samples. They are expressed in the type of motivation, in the orientation “towards the result” or “process”. The study showed some alarming trends: purely engineering students are more focused on material values and social benefits, while being emotionally restrained and low in contact. Materials scientists and biomedical specialties are focused on communicative interaction and social support, and are more emotionally relaxed.

Discussion and Conclusions. The empirical study, and especially its results, confirmed the feasibility of using the theoretical model and showed its viability. A comparative analysis made it possible to identify common and special features in the manifestation of motivational attitudes among students of various technical profiles.

Published: December 2023

One of the significant directions of scientific research in terms of improving the design of sowing machines and increasing their adaptability to modern requirements of automation is the creation of dispensers that provide adjustment of the seeding rate during the operation of the sowing machine. Specialists of the Siberian Research Institute of Mechanization and Electrification of Agriculture have developed a sample of a pneumatic sowing machine dispenser, which was used as a prototype in the study. The dispenser used allows for a smooth adjustment of the seed rate in accordance with the map task, as well as automatic shut-off of the seed supply to the seed line when the machine turns at the headland to prevent overconsumption of seeds and reseeding. The purpose of the research is to determine the design and technological parameters of the experimental dispenser of the pneumatic sowing machine. To achieve the set goal the following tasks were formulated: 1) to conduct a laboratory study of the process of seed metering in the experimental dispenser of the pneumatic seeding machine; 2) to determine the regularities of mutual influence of significant factors on the throughput capacity of the dispenser and describe them by regression equations. In accordance with the listed tasks the process of seed dosing on the laboratory unit was studied. In the course of experimental data processing, regression dependencies were obtained. According to the characteristics of the obtained equations, it is found that the most significant influence on the throughput capacity of the dispenser is the volume of the dispenser coil. Maximum performance of the dispenser is noted at rotor speeds in the range of 80–100 rpm. The highest feed rate and avoidance of spontaneous seed leakage from the dispenser into the seed pipe are achieved at a gate height of the dispenser discharge window within 2 cm. The results of the research can be used to finalize the design of the dispenser in order to use it as an actuator of the system of complex automation of the sowing unit.

Diagnostic pitfalls in neonatal hypertyrosinemia: a case report
Authors: Khalid Karniza , Kamarudzaman Mohd Fazrul Shafiq , Ahmad Ridzuan Siti Nurwani , Hamzan Nurul Izzati , Khalid Norzahidah , Hassan Noor Hafizah
Published: December 2023

Hypertyrosinemia results from abnormality in tyrosine metabolism. Acquired hypertyrosinemia is notably more common than inherited types and typically presents with profile suggestive of secondary aetiology on biochemical testing. Herein, we present an unusual case of a day 16-of-life baby girl who was screened for inborn errors of metabolism (IEM). She presented with jaundice, hypotonia, lethargy and had hepatomegaly on examination. She was treated for sepsis with multiorgan involvement, requiring escalation of intravenous antibiotics and assisted ventilation. Her dried blood spot (DBS) showed moderate elevation of tyrosine (408umol/L, N:10-182) with low Phe:Tyr ratio (0.15mmol/L, N:0.32-3.45). Plasma amino acid showed isolated hypertyrosinemia at 807mmol/L (N:5-167) with mild, non-significant elevations of other liver metabolites. No succinylacetone peak seen with urine organic acids, making the diagnosis of inherited Tyrosinemia type I less likely despite the characteristic findings from DBS, plasma amino acids, and presenting clinical signs. Repeated IEM screening two weeks later revealed a non-diagnostic profile across both DBS and plasma amino acids in light of resolving sepsis and clinical improvement. This case highlights the challenges associated with incompatible biochemical testing in a child with a high index of suspicion for inherited Tyrosinemia. In our case, repeated screening ruled out inherited Tyrosinemia, suggesting the initial picture of hypertyrosinemia to be likely due to liver dysfunction and impaired activity of liver enzymes that are responsible for tyrosine catabolism.
The Dialectics of Child Marriage and the Age of Maturity for Marriage: A Qur'anic Exegesis
Authors: Abd. Holik  , Moch. Nurcholis
Published: December 2023

This article aims to analyze the gaps in the study of child marriage from a specific Qur'anic perspective. The primary focus of this study centers on the issue of the concept of marriage maturity in the Qur'an. The central problems addressed involve the practice of child marriage as portrayed in the Qur'anic context and the positioning of marriage maturity during the stage of maturity as per the Qur'an's perspective. To conduct this research, descriptive research methods were employed. This paper aims to delineate child marriage within the Qur'anic context and explore the stages of maturity by examining key phrases related to the concept of maturity found in various Qur'anic verses. The key phrases under consideration include "balāghatul aṭfāl minkum al-hulūm," "balāghun al-nikāh," and "balāgh ashuddah." The research findings reveal that, first, the practice of child marriage, as depicted in the Qur'an, serves as a reflection of the prevailing social conditions and is not to be construed as an endorsement of such practices; second, the maturity required for marriage is defined as the second stage of maturity, where both the physical and psychological aspects are fulfilled, even though individuals may not have reached a state of perfection. This research provides a foundation for arguments advocating the discontinuation of child marriage practices. Such practices are detrimental to developmental progress and infringe upon the rights of children.

Authors: Tsapro Galyna , Gryshchenko Olena
Published: December 2023

This article delves into the critical realm of teaching master students and, particularly, the communicative effectiveness embedded within the chosen course topics of «Communication Course for Master Students in Linguistics». The research is based on the questionnaire which elicits students’ evaluation of topics and text genres studied. The results of the study demonstrate that certain topics resonated more profoundly with students than others. Notably, the topics of «Tying the Knot» and «Parenting» emerged as the most highly rated, indicating a heightened level of engagement among the master’s students. Topics such as «When something went wrong» and «Getting through» garnered comparatively lower ratings, shedding light on potential areas for improvement or reconsideration in the curriculum. A further analysis reveals that the second year of the course received more positive feedback from students. The topic «Artificial Intelligence» stood out received the highest overall ratings among the diverse range of subjects covered in the course. This observation suggests a keen interest and appreciation for contemporary and cutting-edge themes among master’s students in linguistics.

Among the various text genres employed in the course, short stories emerged as the most captivating for discussions. Following closely behind were articles, poems, book chapters, and novel extracts, each contributing to the multifaceted tapestry of the students’ learning experience. Students may lean towards complete short stories due to their preference for engaging, creative activities associated with literary analysis. Surprisingly, poems also garnered positive feedback, possibly because of the inventive tasks involved, like translation and responsive poem writing, fostering quick comprehension and facilitating discussions. This contrasts with more complex literary analysis, aligning with students’ interest in freely conversational topics found in articles.

Agricultural production is closely related to natural and climatic factors, of which meteorological factors are the most variable and active. The analysis of climatic precipitation and temperature norms according to the data of 4 meteorological stations of the Novgorod region for the period 1891-2020 showed their steady increase, except for the Novgorod meteorological station, where the annual precipitation rate by 2020 decreased against the background of temperature growth. Analysis of the results of meteorological observations over the past 60 years has shown that there is a steady trend in the Novgorod region to increase the degree of humidification: the hydrothermal coefficient has increased from 1.36 to 1.46. This happened due to the excess of the increase in precipitation over the increase in temperature, so agricultural production of crop production is impossible without reclamation measures. The aim of the research was to gain new knowledge in the formation of soil moisture regimes under the influence of drainage reclamation in the conditions of climate change. In the Non-Chernozem zone, two main methods of drainage are common - a network of open channels and closed drains. Studies on the formation of soil moisture regimes were carried out during 2019-2021 on experimental production sites of closed and open drainage on 8 variants of structures. The conducted studies of the efficiency of the drainage systems of closed and open drainage allowed us to conclude that closed drainage systems better provide the water-air regime of the soil compared to open drainage: the period of soil being in a waterlogged state is 2 times shorter (50 days on open drainage structures and 25 days on closed drainage structures).The most optimal water-air regime of the soil among the options with closed drainage was provided by drainage systems with filling the drainage trench with wood chips, on which the range of moisture changes in the root-inhabited soil layer during 3 years of observation was closest to optimal and amounted to 210-114 mm. Among the options for open drainage are systems of runoff hollows in combination with cultivation strips.

The results of evaluation of the collection of more than 400 soybean samples according to morphological and economically valuable features in the conditions of Belarus and the Central Black Earth Region of the Russian Federation are presented. Experimental research methods were used: field and laboratory. By the duration of the growing season (from 91 to 140 days), the samples are distributed among 4 ripeness groups. More than 50 % of samples are of practical interest for the selection of soybeans for precocity, it is advisable to use them in crosses to obtain new varieties. According to morphological characteristics, samples stable in height of Adess and Memory of Fadeev were identified, in terms of the percentage of attachment of beans below 15 cm, a Kitross sample should be used in selection for manufacturability. In terms of yield stability, the best are Vasilisa, Avanta, Adessa, Kasatka, Lyuba, and Kitross, it is advisable to involve them in hybridization to increase yield. In terms of protein content in the grain, the best were Viscount, Killer Whale, Kitross, Avanta, Adessa and Luba. The Vasilisa variety admitted to use by the State Commission for Testing and Protection of Breeding Achievements for Use in the 5th Region (CDC) is advisable to grow in production to increase the variety of soybean varieties.

Dictyocaulosis in sheep is widespread and causes significant economic damage. Currently, albendazole and fenbendazole are widely used in sheep farming. They have shown high effectiveness against nematodes and cestodes simultaneously. However, a long period of use of the same anthelmintics, led to the expected phenomenon – resistance of helminths. In the Stavropol Territory, ivermectin preparations are used to control the nematode of the gastrointestinal tract and sheep gadfly (June-July) and in rare cases to treat sarcoptoidosis of sheep. The purpose of the work was to determine the effectiveness of the suspension we prepared, which contained 2.5% praziquantel and 0.5% ivermectin for treating sheep dictyocaulosis. The experiment to determine the therapeutic dose of praziquantel 2.5% and 0.5% ivermectin suspension was carried out in the APC collective breeding farm “Russia” on lambs with a live weight of 24-25 kg. For each group of sheep (n=20), the suspension was used in doses of 0.3; 0.4; 0.5 ml/10 kg of animal weight. It was found that the suspension of praziquantel 2.5% and 0.5% ivermectin at a dose of 0.4 ml/10 kg of animal weight was 100% effective against dictyocaulosis in sheep. The experiment to determine the effectiveness of the suspension against dictyocaulosis in sheep under production conditions was carried out in the collective farm “Rodina” in Apanasenkovsky District of the Stavropol Territory. 120 lambs with a live weight of 24-25 kg were selected, 100 lambs of which received the drug at a dose of 0.4 ml/10 kg of animal weight. The drug was administered individually, orally. The remaining 20 lambs served as control group. In production tests, the effectiveness of the suspension at a dose of 0.4 ml/10 kg of animal weight turned out to be slightly lower and amounted to individual performance = 98.0% and economical effectiveness = 92.5%.

The article considers the investigation of the influence heterogeneity of the load node on the required power of the power source and on their comparability. By checking fulfillment of loading conditions of the electric generator unit, the obtained analytical dependencies in relation to determining parameters of an autonomous power supply source for a multi-motor load are solved. The criterion of comparability was proposed for matching the power of the source with the installed power of consumers of the autonomous energy system. A dependency for determining the comparability coefficient was given for the system the electric generator unit and the load node. The analysis of the permissible solution the comparability coefficient has been carried out for ensuring rational loading of the electric generator unit in the continuous operating. The necessity of using devices for reducing or compensating the reactive power of individual electric loads was assessed to reduce the power of the electric generator unit.

In the unfavorable climatic and soil conditions of the Lower Volga region and the Saratov region, the characteristics of the growth and development of soybean (Glicine hispida Maxim) were studied. The most important factor determining the rate of growth and development of plants in an arid region is soil moisture during the sowing period and throughout the growing season. The duration of the sowing-emergence period was most influenced by soil moisture and temperature. The comparative productivity of soybean varieties of different ripeness groups (early ripening - Soer-4, Soer-5, mid-early - Natali and Zernogradskaya-2) was considered depending on weather conditions, varietal characteristics, diet and herbicide use. It has been shown that agrotechnical techniques for caring for plants must be started early. These primarily include weed control and the creation of an optimal soybean nutrition regime. The best way to control weeds turned out to be the application of a combination of herbicides Begin Turbo (for cultivation) and Pivot (during the growing season), which reduced the infestation of crops by 6.7 times and increased the yield by 18.3–32.1% compared to the control. The application of small doses of fertilizers (N30P60) had a positive effect on the development of soybean plants. In our studies, in the most moisture-rich year of 2020, the mid-early variety Natali had the maximum seed yield - 1.15 t/ha when N30P60 was applied. On average over 3 years, the Natali variety also gave the highest yield - 0.95 t/ha. In the early ripening varieties Soer-4 and Soer-5, the seed yield was 0.17–0.12 t/ha lower compared to the mid-early variety Natali.

Regulations stipulate that a political party must prepare financial reports to facilitate sound financial management and accountability of the state subsidies it receives. However, its accountability remains problematic, raising a question: How do the related policies deal with the accountability of state subsidies for political parties? This study aims to evaluate issues related to accountability in the policies governing the management of state subsidies for political parties. This study is normative legal research. Within a meta-analysis framework, critical analysis of the relevant policies in the form of laws and regulations and other reliable sources of information is carried out. The study finds that the policies provide rules to ensure eligible political parties’ right to obtain state subsidies and employ audit and administrative sanctions to enhance state subsidy accountability. Nevertheless, the policies still overlook important issues related to vertical accountability of political parties and government, horizontal accountability of government, internal control mechanisms, supervision requirements, and formal and material responsibilities by relevant in-charge parties. Moreover, the running audit practices do not provide much value for improvement. This study provides policy-makers with a new perspective on relevant studies so that the government will consider the comprehensive management of state subsidies for political parties by relevant in-charge parties before elevating the value of the subsidies.
