Published: July 2022

Hog cholera is an epizootic viral diseases that attack pig. The disease is caused by Pestivirus C which belongs to the genus Pestivirus and the family Flaviviridae. Information about the prevalence and risk factors of hog cholera incidence in North Sumatra and especially in the Deli Serdang Regency became the basis for this research. This study aims to find out the prevalence and factors associated with seropositive hog cholera in Deli Serdang Regency. Samples were taken using a random sample technique with a simple random type. A total of 196 blood samples were collected from 8 sub-districts, 11 villages, and 54 farms in the Deli Serdang district. Animal and breeder data were collected with questionnaires to determine the incidence and causative factors of hog cholera seropositive. Data analysed using univariable and multivariable logistical regression tests to determine the association between hog cholera infection and risk factors. The results showed that the prevalence of Hog Cholera seroposive events at the agricultural level was 9% (5/54) and the individual rate was 10% (20/196). The results showed that the prevalence of Hog Cholera seroposive events at the agricultural level was 9% (5/54) and the individual rate was 10% (20/196). The conclusion of this research that the risk factors associated with pig cholera were landrace pigs (OR 14,28, 95% CI: 1.04-195) were more likely to have seropositif than other breeds and vaccination (OR 0.0048, 95% CI: 0.004-0.498) potential factors reducing hog cholera infection.
Effects of Phosphorus on Different Genotypes of Wheat and Canola Differing in P-Efficiency in Acidic Soils of Western Australia
Authors: Mahdikhani Mohammadreza , Navaei Fatemeh , Sadeghi Kamal
Published: July 2022

We hypothesized that phosphorus addition would result in plant morphological changes and changes in rhizosphere carboxylates among wheat and canola cultivars in different acidic soils. Concentration of carboxylates in the rhizosphere extracted with 0.2 mM CaCl2, expressed per unit root dry mass. Dry weight of root and shoot were measures after harvest; total root length, and average root diameter were determined using a scanner. Also, the concentration of phosphorus (Colwell P) in rhizosphere and bulk soil was measured using UV-VIS Spectrophotometer. Shoot and root dry mass of wheat and canola increased significantly with increasing P supply. There was significant difference in total root length and average root diameter between treatments and genotypes in both acidic soils. Citrate was the dominant carboxylate in the rhizosphere of wheat genotypes, and malate was the second one. In canola genotypes, concentration of carboxylates in the rhizosphere were at least 10 times higher than rhizosphere of wheat genotypes. Surprisingly, malonate which there was not in the rhizosphere of wheat genotypes, was the most important carboxylate in the rhizosphere of canola genotypes followed by malate and citrate. This study showed there were significant differences between plant P-efficient and non-efficient in acidic soils when we used different level of P.

Authors: Sadiq Sanusi Mohammed , Singh Invinder Paul , Ahmad Muhammad Makarfi
Published: July 2022

The present research attempted to address cost inefficiency of USAID MARKETS II smallholder farmers in Nigeria’s Kano State using farm survey data obtained from 189 farmers through a multi-stage sampling technique. The farm survey data were elicited viz. well-structured questionnaire coupled with interview schedule during the 2018 cropping season. The collected data were analyzed using both descriptive and inferential statistics- stochastic cost frontier function. The empirical evidence showed that none of the technical unit was cost efficient and this owed majorly to extension gap given its interwoven link with risk inducing factors. Besides, only 57.7%, marginally above half of the sampled technical units were fairly cost efficient i.e. close to the optimum minimum cost preferred for the production process. On the average, a technical unit wasted 14.7% of its actual incurred cost which translates to N1100 ($3.7) relative to the best practiced farmers facing the same technology and producing the same output. Therefore, since the farmers still have the room to eliminate the extra cost incurred, the study advice the program to explore further the advisory services offered to the farmers, thus addressing the extension gap that inhibited the farmers’ cost efficiency. The sustainability of the project in the near future in the absence of the advisory services especially farmer-2-farmer extension services if not explored is unlikely.

Published: July 2022

Root rot in brinjal is one of the most important problems. In the present research, five different fungicides; Mancozeb, Copper oxychloride, Hexaconazole, Metalaxyl+Mancozeb, and Carbendazim, at 100 ppm were evaluated for their efficacy against the causative agent of this disease, Fusarium solani, In-vitro. The experiment was carried out in Completely Randomized Design with seven replications. Our result shows the difference in the efficacy of all tested fungicide against this pathogen. The application of Carbendazim at 100 ppm gave the highest inhibition of mycelium growth (100%) followed by Mancozeb (85.08%) and Metalaxyl+Mancozeb (64.3%) (at the same dose) on the 7th day of incubation suggesting Carbendazim (100 ppm) as a better one to use for the management of F. solani.

Authors: Ejoh Nonso , Onyeulo C.G.
Published: July 2022

The main objective of this research is to compare the amino acid and proximate compositions of raw and roasted maize samples. Complete randomized experimental design with triplicates replications was applied. From the analysis, we were able to obtain the following values: total carbohydrates (78.28-79.85 percent), crude protein (7.32-7.05 percent), crude fat (2.70-2.20 percent), crude fiber (2.40-2.10 percent) and ash (2.10-2.50 percent) for both raw and roasted maize seeds. Prolonged exposure to the heat from roasting altered the amino acid content as obtained from the result. The concentration of amino acids in the seeds was reduced by the heat effect. The highest concentration of leucine was contained in seeds, with a value of 1.30 g/16 g N and 0.95 g/16 g N in the case of the raw and roasted seeds, respectively. Lysine and tryptophan concentrations were low, but they contain equal quantities of amino acids containing sulphur, which are methionine and cystine.

Published: July 2022

Introduction. The worldwide globalisation processes lead to academic mobility of students, which is expressed in the possibility of entering any educational institutions, including those located abroad. As a consequence, educational institutions are developing a special intercultural learning environment, where peaceful coexistence is largely determined by the presence of such quality as intercultural tolerance. This quality is especially important for students of pedagogical specialties since the quality of educational process and the psychological climate within the involved learners’ team will depend on them. Therefore the problem of formation of intercultural tolerance comes to the fore. Materials and methods. The research involved 81 pedagogical-profile students of the 1st-4th years of study at the State budget-funded educational institution of secondary vocational education of Kaluga region “A.P. Churilin Kirov Industrial and Pedagogical College”. The teaching at experimental groups involved the use of specially developed technology for foreign-language teaching and the digital educational resource. The control groups worked under a teaching technology described in the programme for the discipline “Foreign language”. In order to assess the level of formation of intercultural tolerance, A. Kyveralg’s method was used, which allows the researcher to evaluate the general level of formation of the explored phenomenon proceeding from each component’s indicators. The mathematical and statistical processing of the results was carried out using Pearson’s chi-squared test (χ2). Results. A number of statistically significant differences were revealed in the distribution between the control and experimental groups under the following indicators: motivational χ2=16.98 and χ2=31.369), cognitive (χ2=21.123 and χ2=38.956), activity-based (χ2=12.588 and χ2=8.75) and reflexive (χ2=7.892 and χ2=7.317). Conclusion. The diagnostic indicators made it possible to conclude that the students in the experimental groups used the methods of intercultural interaction that are based on the knowledge of cultural diversity of educational process participants, the ability to apply different interaction methods from the positions of the explored phenomenon, to seek ways out of conflict situations independently, to plan educational and professional activities.

Introduction. The relevance of the research is accounted for by the need to take into account the specific organisation of muscular-activity energy supply in children at different stages of age development in the process of physical education. The purpose of the study is to identify the typological features of muscular activity bioenergetics in 9-10-year old girls and experimentally substantiate the methodology of differentiated physical training at physical education lessons on this basis. Materials and methods. The study encompassed a number of girls aged 9-10 (n=211). A set of functional and ergometric indices was used to assess the muscular energy and fitness for work. In order to identify the typological characteristics of muscular energy, the cluster analysis was applied – iterative method for k-means grouping. Results. Based on the cluster analysis, the following types of muscle energy supply were identified: aerobic; mixed; phosphatic; anaerobic. There are distinctions between separate clusters in indicators of muscular energy and capacity for work (t=2.3-34.7; p<0.05-0.001), physical development (t=2.6-6.1; p<0.05-0.001) and fitness (t=2.3-34.6; p<0.05-0.001). It was revealed that schoolgirls with the prevalence of aerobic metabolism show high level of endurance along with leptosomal physique, while the ones with prevalent anaerobic metabolism – high level of fastness, strength and swiftness/strength-specific qualities, along with eurysomal physique. Special methodology of differentiated physical training at physical education classes was developed with regard for the type of muscular energy. The use of this methodology in the experimental group revealed more expressed increment in absolute and relative values of maximal oxygen consumption in comparison with the control group (t=3.1; p<0.01 and t=3.4; p<0.01) and PWC170 (t=3.8; p<0.01 and t=3.1; p<0,01), V40 (t=4.0; p<0.01), V240 (t=3.5; p<0.01), V900 (t=3.4 ; p<0.01), Lns (t=4.1; p<0.01), coefficients “a” (t=3.0; p<0.01) and “b” (t=3.4; p<0.01), 30-metre running (t=2.3; p<0.01), 60-metre running (t=4.6; p<0.01), jumping (t=7.5; p<0.01), shuttle run (t=3.0; p<0.01), 6-minute running (t=3.5; p<0.01), torso lifting (t=4.9; p<0.01). Conclusion. The research results testify to high efficiency of using the differentiated physical training methodology based on account of typological features of muscular-activity energy supply at physical education classes at school.

Authors: Carvalho Tatiane Kelly Pinto de , Cardoso Wemerson Gonçalves
Published: July 2022

Considerando que os estudos sobre estudantes-trabalhadores no ensino superior revelam desafios para que estes indivíduos possam garantir sua permanência na graduação, a questão que buscamos responder compreendeu quais as estratégias estes estudantes recorrem visando garantir a permanência no ensino superior, considerando os principais desafios em conciliar o trabalho e os estudos. O objetivo geral desta pesquisa foi compreender os percursos, ingresso e estratégias de permanência destes estudantes no espaço acadêmico, bem como investigar como os capitais (social, econômico e cultural) têm impacto em suas trajetórias. O desenho metodológico, para além de um levantamento bibliográfico sobre a temática, pautou-se em uma abordagem quali-quanti, que contou com a aplicação de um questionário on-line aos estudantes-trabalhadores do curso de História da UEMG (Universidade do Estado de Minas Gerais – Campus Divinópolis) matriculados e frequentes no ano de 2020. Os resultados evidenciaram que a renda destes indivíduos é essencial para o sustento familiar, impossibilitando que eles se dediquem integralmente à graduação. Além disso, o campo de atuação profissional atual destes universitários se distancia da licenciatura, concentrando-se em atividades laborais relacionadas ao setor de prestação de serviços. Contudo, os estudantes-trabalhadores se esforçam para permanecer na universidade, inclusive atingindo rendimento acadêmico satisfatório, embora não tenham oportunidades consideráveis de participação em atividades científico-acadêmicas.

‘Ransack the histories’: Gay Men, Liberation and the Politics of Literary Style
Authors: Cronin Michael G.
Published: July 2022

It is now twenty years since the publication of Jamie O’Neill’s At Swim, Two Boys (2001). O’Neill’s novel was not the first Irish novel to depict same-sex passion, and not even the first Irish gay novel of the post-decriminalisation period. However, it did attain a wider and higher level of recognition among mainstream Irish, and international, readers. This may have been at least partly due to O’Neill’s decision to write a historical romance – a genre which still retains its enduring appeal for readers. By adapting this genre, O’Neill uses fiction to unearth, and imaginatively recreate, an archaeology of same-sex passions between men in revolutionary Ireland. As such, his novel speaks powerfully to a yearning to make the silences of history speak and is motivated by the belief that, as Scott Bravmann puts it in a different context, ‘lesbian and gay historical self-representation – queer fictions of the past – help construct, maintain and contest identities – queer fictions of the present.’ Revisiting O’Neill’s novel now – after two decades of remarkable social change for Ireland’s LGBT communities, and after almost a decade of national commemoration of the revolutionary period – is a timely opportunity to reflect on the relationship between history, fiction and how we imagine sexual liberation.

Understanding the 4th market of children as consumer
Authors: Mulyawan Agusanto , Nabilah Jehan , Irawan Silvia , Haryanto Jony Oktavian
Published: July 2022

There are some aspects that can impact a consumer's purchase decision. Before purchasing a product or using a service, a consumer will examine a number of things. In addition to this study, there is an unconscious behaviour carried out by a consumer before making a decision. According to the previous studies, there is still a lack of research into children as a future market or the factors that impact parents' purchase decisions for their children. Twenty participants were subjected to a series of directed in-depth interviews, which were grouped by gender (male and female) and income (middle low and middle up). This research has been conducted between October 2021 and January 2022. Researchers discovered that the higher a parent's income is, the more thoughts they have before purchasing goods or services, and the higher a parent's educational level is, the more considerations they have before purchasing goods or services. Before purchasing products or services, parents think about their children's health, safety, comfort, and educational value of the goods or services.

Keywords: children behaviour; parents’ purchase decision; unconscious behaviour.

Published: July 2022

The article substantiates the resources of social interaction “teacher – student” in preventing the crisis of motivation in student learning and highlights areas for improvement. To study the motivation of the modern student youth, the author used methods for determining learning motives (modified by A.A. Rean, V.A. Yakunin), methods for diagnosing the internal motivation for learning (T.D. Dubovytska), method “Value Orientations” (M. Rokeach), method “SAMOAL”, author’s questionnaire “I master the profession”. In the process of analysis of the obtained results, the methods of descriptive statistics were used: determination of average values and frequency analysisConclusions based on the results of an empirical study of learning motivation are presented. Key aspects of the theory of motivation and factors of motivation of the person to educational activity are noted. It is noted that the interaction of a teacher and the students is a situational factor motivating educational activities, it is able to actualize a significant number of learning motives, to ensure the effectiveness of procedural and effective component. The author claims that in the interaction of a teacher with the students there is a wide range of opportunities to ensure positive flow experiences of both parties. Among them - the ability to meet the needs of students in security (by forming readiness for adult independent life: mastering the profession, a sense of support from others), respect and self-esteem (by forming competencies and awareness), self-actualization and self-realization (by ensuring individual choices, interests) in educational activities. The components of social interaction of teachers with students aimed at maintaining the motivation of learning and prevention of the crisis of motivation are offered. The program of seminars-trainings for scientific and pedagogical workers of the universities is described, which provides elaboration of various aspects of interaction with students, important for maintaining their motivation for educational activity. Limitations: the article contains the results of a study of student motivation conducted by the author before the pandemic, which could make adjustments to the prevailing motives for learning; signs of crisis of learning motivation and risks of its occurrence are described according to the teaching experience of the author and colleagues, no data were collected on the spectrum of their manifestation and frequency in a representative sample; the conclusion about the resources of social interaction “teacher – student” in preventing the crisis of learning motivation is based on a theoretical understanding of the problem of motivating individuals to work and requires further long-term and thorough research to obtain more specific data

Background: Consultant Couple Interactive (CCI) session is an interactive session held weekly between service provider and the infertile couple.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of CCI sessions on fertility outcome.
Methodology: This mixed method study was conducted from May 2009 to August 2012. The samples were collected from a primary care center at Bheramara upazila of district of Kushtia on couples attending during that period. The qualitative part was performed on couples by asking open-ended questions as well as the focus group discussion (FGD). For quantitative part, a preformed data collection sheet (questionnaire) was used to collect data through face to face interview.
Results: A total number of 275 couples were studied. For qualitative study, 55(20%) couples were selected, of them 41 participated. In a single focused group up to 6 (12 persons) couples were included. Among the 41 couples, 61% had primary and in 39% had secondary infertility. All the respondents were exposed to CCI sessions but 186 (67.6%) were treated with only with CCI. Out of the remaining 53 (19.3%), needed ovulation inducing oral drugs, 5 (1.8%) were treated with metformin and the others required medical and surgical treatments in different combination according to need. Out of 275 respondents, 112 (40.7%) conceived and among the conceived group, 72 (64.3%) conceived only following CCI. From the seven FGDs, it was revealed that most of the couples followed the advices provided during CCI session, majority were able to improve the relationship among partners and two third of the respondents could relieve 75% of environmental pressure exerted on them.
Conclusion: The consultant couple interactive session has significant effect on fertility outcome among infertile couples.

Authors: Hasan Md Mahmudul , Ehsan MQ
Published: July 2022

The interaction of some divalent metal ions with leucine (leu) and isoleucine (ile) was studied in aqueous solution. Electrochemical techniques like cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry and chronocoulometry were used for this study. The electrochemical study demonstrates that the maximum interaction of each metal ion occurs with two deprotonated ligand. The metal ions exchange electrons quasi-reversibly in presence of the ligands and some sort of chemical reaction may be competing with diffusion process at the electrode surface. The current-time and charge-time response accounts for the adsorption of reactant or product or both at the electrode surface.

To Be or Not to Be Vaccinated? The Perilous Evolution of COVID-19
Authors: Sofra Xanya
Published: July 2022

The COVID-19 classification and evolution through its multiple mutations have increased its transmissibility rate up to 70% or more globally, threatening to undermine the promise of a number of emerging medications and vaccines that primarily focus on the immune detection of the Spike trimer. Mutations have been long considered as random events, or mistakes during the viral RNA replication. Usually, what can go wrong will go wrong; therefore, repeated transformations lead to the extinction of a virus. On the contrary, the aggregate result of over 300,000 COVID-19 variants have expanded its transmissibility and infectiousness. COVID-19 mutations do not degrade the virus; they empower and facilitate its disguise to evade detection. Unlike other coronaviruses, COVID-19 amino acid switches do not reflect the random unfolding of errors that eventually eradicate the disease. COVID-19 appears to use mutations adaptively in the service of its survival and expansion. One of the COVID-19 primary strategies is to inhibit the production of interferon type (INF) that is involved in recognizing the virus. The deleterious consequences of the cytokine storm where the CD8+ killer cells injure the vital organs of the host may well be collateral damage, as the blind immune system struggles to annihilate the unidentified COVID-19. It is probable that evolution has programmed COVID-19 with an adeptness designed to debilitate key systemic defences to secure its subsistence. To date the infectiousness of the COVID-19 pandemic is exponentially increasing, denoting the possibility of an even more dangerously elusive, inconspicuous, and sophisticated version of the disease.

Background: The article raises a topical scientific problem regarding the physical inactivity and low physical capacity of the elderly population, the indicators of which, according to researchers in old age, can help predict institutionalization, disability, or even the risk of premature death. Various organizations around the world are striving to increase the number of physically active people by raising awareness and developing preventive measures. In this study, we looked for optimal activities that can effectively improve the physical capacity and quality of life self assessment of older people.
Methods: Eurofit tests were used to assess physical capacity (Jones, & Rikli, 2002). The study assessed the physical capacity of elderly people to determine body composition, motor system capacity, skeletal muscle capacity, and cardiovascular capacity. A shortened version of the WHO questionnaire (World Health Organization Quality of Life 100 - WHOQOL-100), WHO-BREF-26 was used to assess quality of life (World Health Organization, 2012).
Results: The indicators of quality of life of the subjects did not improve in a statistically significant way after physically energetic activities – exercise, swimming and Nordic walking. The indicators of physical capacity of the subjects improved in a statistically significant way after physically energetic activities. The three-month exercise increased hand muscle strength and body composition, swimming activity increased hand muscle strength, upper body flexibility and motor system performance indicators, Nordic walking statistically significantly improved upper body flexibility.
Conclusions: Different physical activity activities significantly improve different components of physicalcapacity.
Keywords: physical activity, elderly people, physical capacity.

Published: July 2022

Studies have been conducted to establish the influence of plant growth regulators and drip irrigation on the productivity of marshmallow in the first year of the growing season. It was found that the increase in dry grass yield from the use of growth regulators ranged from 0.15 t/ha to 0.88 t/ha without irrigation. In the variants with the use of irrigation, the increase in yield ranged from 0.29 t/ha to 1.16 t/ha. It was found that the yield of dry roots without irrigation with the use of growth regulators increased by 0.05–0.42 t/ha compared to the option without the introduction of growth regulators (control). Under irrigation conditions, the use of growth regulators helped to increase the yield of dried roots of marshmallow by 0.12 0.47 t/ha relative to control. The highest productivity of marshmallow grass was obtained with the application of Emistin and Vimpel, where the yield was 4.69 and 4.88 t/ha without irrigation, in the variants with irrigation the yield was 7.31 and 7.44 t/ha of dry raw materials. The highest yield of dried marshmallow roots without irrigation was in the variants with the application of Vimpel and Potassium Humate where it was 1.89 and 1.95 t/ha. Under irrigation conditions, the highest root yield of 2.22–2.34 t/ha was obtained in the variants with the introduction of Emistin, Potassium Humate and Vimpel. The study of the effect of drip irrigation on the yield of dry raw material of marshmallow showed a positive effect, on average, the increase in yield from the use of irrigation was 2.5 t/ha of grass and 0.39 t/ha of roots. In a study of the influence of growth regulators on the share of leaves in raw materials, it was found that without irrigation among the studied options, the percentage of leaves ranged from 43.5 to 46.7%. The use of Sodium Humate provided the raw material with the largest share of leaves. The smallest share of leaves was under the control and with the introduction of growth regulators of Potassium Humate and Emistin. Under irrigation, the share of leaves in raw materials ranged from 42.9 to 47.1%. The lowest percentage of leaves in the raw material was recorded in the version with the introduction of the growth regulator of Potassium Humate, the highest percentage of leaves was in the version with the introduction of Pennant.

Issues of quality and diversity of available food, environmental safety and guarantees of sustainable energy supply are becoming critical for the population of urban areas. Part of the urbanized areas cannot be used directly for food production for environmental reasons, but it is quite suitable for the production of energy from biomass. In order to create strategies for processing organic biomass from urban plantations of parks and squares, it is necessary to determine the tools for obtaining and interpreting data on the available and prospective amount of biomass in cities, which was the purpose of our work. Unmanned aerial vehicle studies were conducted at the Botanical Garden of the National University of Life and Environmental Sciences of Ukraine using the Slantrange 3P multispectral sensor system from an industrialtype UAV platform. The study of squares and lawns of the city was conducted using an archive of satellite images in the visible range of high resolution — 0.5 m/pixel and a specialized agricultural service EO Browser with a resolution of images of 10 m/pixel. Monitoring of the park using the Slantrange 3P complex, with specialized SlantView software, allowed to identify tree crowns and grass cover, while it was not possible to distinguish vines. The best identification results for the Slantrange complex were obtained for the red and infrared measurement channels. Using satellite monitoring data, the possibility of identifying the biomass of trees and shrubs occurs in drought conditions, when the grass on the lawns suffers more than trees and shrubs, apparently due to the developed root system. It is noted that satellite imagery is usually carried out at different angles and, accordingly, fixed both roofs and partially walls of buildings, and accordingly, such imagery is more suitable for assessing the biomass of promising vertical landscaping with vines.

Berg, Pistacia vera L., Citrus trifoliata L., Diospyros virginiana L., Actinidia chinensis Planch. Plants are presented in the collection areas «Garden of subtropical fruit crops», «Paradise Garden» and «Shaped Fruit Garden». The collection fund of the botanical garden was formed for a long time and each culture is at a certain stage of introduction. Subtropical fruit crops of the Khorol Botanical Garden: Asimina triloba L., Punica granatum L., Zizyphus jujuba Mill., Ficus carica L., Amygdalus communis L., Mespilus germanica L., Diospyros virginiana L. are studied as introductory populations. When creating garden compositions from subtropical species, attention was paid to the reaction of introducers to adverse weather conditions. According to the planting scheme, possible artificial forms of the plant crown are taken into account: formation of a plant with a low trunk and the same rounded crowns, in the form of spherical bushes, with main shoots-conductors formed in the form of ascending spirals. The search for the optimal life form for subtropical fruit introducers in the Forest-Steppe zone of Ukraine is carried out. The problematic moments are revealed and the ways of their solution are offered. During the modification of the crown shape, the morphological structure, peculiarities of growth and development of the introducer in new conditions, resistance to adverse weather conditions were taken into account. Asimina triloba, Cydonia oblonga, Chaenomeles × californica, Cormus domestica, Mespilus germanica, Prunus armeniaca, Ziziphus jujuba, Elaeagnus multiflora, Elaeagnus umbellate, Diospyros virginiana began to bear fruit at 6–9 years of age. The fruits have plants of typical and derived life form. This is the practical purpose of their introduction. Ficus carica, Punica have a modified life form. They are covered for the winter. It is established that most of the species composition of the collection of subtropical plants (22 species) have typical and derived life forms. 7 species: Laurus nobilis, Ficus carica, Camellia sinensis, Passiflora incarnate, Feijoa sellowiana, Punica granatum, Olea europaea in terms of introduction to the Forest-Steppe of Ukraine require mandatory modification of life form. Modification of life form is pruning, as well as warming the crown in the cold season.
Basic principles of emergency of the system of protection of property rights of the Ukrainian people to land and its natural resources
Authors: Kovaliv O.
Published: July 2022

The article reveals the requirements for immediate institutionalization of the current land norms of the Constitution of Ukraine as carried out over thirty years the so-called «land and agrarian reform» in Ukraine does not correspond to the declared land transactions, which aim at the development and real economic and legal strengthening of Ukrainian statehood. The aim of the article is to substantiate the basic principles of emergence of the system of property rights of the Ukrainian people to land and its natural resources in the accomplishment of land reform in New Ukraine as a new paradigm that develops at the highest quantum level understanding of the synergetic role legitimate interests of all citizens of Ukraine. The fundamental differences between the land norms of the Constitution of Ukraine (Articles 13, 14) and the Constitution of the Russian Federation (Articles 9) are revealed. It has been established that in the current hybrid environment of degradation and opposition to the development of the state by the unconstitutional corruption system, there is a need to unblock the resistance — in a constitutional way, by providing an immediate and fair official interpretation of the current constitutional land norms by the Constitutional Court of Ukraine. It was found that due to the absence of a constitutionally declared special Law of Ukraine «On the Right to Use Natural Objects of Property Rights of the Ukrainian People» for a quarter of a century, the rights of their owner (all citizens of Ukraine) are violated and the unauthorized use of the nation’s capital occurs. As a result, the rights, duties and responsibilities of users of natural objects are not standardized, as well as full-fledged requirements for their rational use and protection on a paid basis in accordance with established regulations. The necessity of urgent introduction of land reform to date is proved — in the current constitutional field of Ukraine, ensuring the institutionalization of constitutional norms regarding the land and its natural resources as natural objects of the property rights of the Ukrainian people and the main national wealth, which is under special protection of the state. It is proposed to adopt a number of relevant laws and regulations.
