أثر الترخيص الإداري على المسؤولية الجزائية عن التسرب الكيميائي (دراسة مقارنة)
Authors: Aqeel Aziz awdh  , Ghusen Mnahi KHyoon
Published: August 2023

قد اتضح من خلال هذا البحث أن التشريعات المتعلقة بالحماية من تسرب المواد الكيميائية تقوم على مجموعة من المبادئ ، من بينها أن هذا التشريع هو وسيلة لتنظيم الأمن وتطويره ، مع مراعاة الالتزامات الدولية بوضع الأسس اللازمة لذلك. ممارسة النشاط الكيميائي وترك تفاصيل هذه الممارسات التي تنظمها  الانظمة والتعليمات الصادرة عن السلطة المختصة للترخيص الإداري في المدى الذي تم فيه تحقيق المسؤولية الجنائية عن تسرب المواد الكيميائية .

وبالتالي لا يعتبر ترخيصًا إداريًا. كمبرر لتلويث البيئة كيميائيا. لا يجوز استخدام المواد الكيميائية. أو العمل فيها بأي صفة كانت ، أو إنشاء أو تشغيل أو إدارة أي منشأة صناعية إلا بعد الحصول على الترخيص اللازم لذلك. لا تشكل التراخيص الإدارية سببًا لتبرير ارتكاب جريمة تسريب مواد كيميائية ، ما لم ينص على خلاف ذلك في نص التجريم ، حتى لو تجنب القضاء أحيانًا هذا السبب ما لم يسمح النص الجنائي المنشئ للجريمة بالإعفاء من المسؤولية الجنائية. تصدر هذه التراخيص من الجهة المختصة لمنع تسرب المواد الكيميائية عند منح التراخيص وأهمها الغرض من استخدام هذه المواد الكيميائية وموقعها وتحركاتها وحماية العمال بشكل خاص وكذلك حماية الناس. والبيئة من تأثيرات وأخطار الانسكابات الكيميائية

أدى تفشي وباء فايروس كورونا إلى توقف كبير في مظاهر الحياة العامة وشكل تهديداً خطيراً للصحة العامة, فتفشي الفايروس التاجي أثر سلباً على جميع قطاعات المجتمع وتسبب في حدوث خلل في المنظومات الصحية للدول مما حدا ببعض الدول إلى العمل وفقاً لقوانين استثنائية , لذلك لا جدال في أنه من الضروري اتخاذ إجراءات حكومية فعالة تجاه هذا الفايروس وحماية المجتمعات وتوفير كل أسباب التخفيف من آثار المرض وتداعياتها على الصحة العامة للمواطنين , لذلك لجأت السلطات الصحية في محاولة منها للتصدي لهذه الجائحة في فرض مجموعة من الإجراءات والتدابير الوقائية للحماية والتقليل قدر الإمكان من خطر تفشي جائحة فايروس كورونا على الرغم مما اتصفت بها هذه الإجراءات من تقييد حقوق وحريات الأفراد إلا أنها بالرغم من ذلك ساهمت بدرجة كبيرة في التقليل قدر الإمكان من تفشي الفايروس التاجي
تعويض المتهم عن التوقيف التعسفي (دراسة مقارنة)
Authors: Hussain Jassim Shati
Published: August 2023

لما كان توقيف الإفراد من الإجراءات التي تتسم بالخطورة في نطاق قانون أصول المحاكمات الجزائية أثناء مرحلة التحقيق، إذ تقتضي المصلحة في بعض الأحيان، اتخاذ ذلك الإجراء للوصول إلى الحقيقة، وهذا الإجراء تكمن خطورته في كونه يمس مباشرة حريات الإفراد أو ممكن أن يقيدها، ويحول بينهم وبين ممارستهم لحياتهم الطبيعية.

          وعلى هذا الأساس تذهب التشريعات، إلى إحاطة هذا الإجراء بجملة من الضمانات والاحتياطات التي تحول دون التعسف في استعماله ، وبالتالي بما يمنع إلحاق الضرر بالأبرياء وبما يحول دون إن يكونوا ضحايا للقانون.

       ومن أبرز تلك الضمانات التي وضعتها التشريعات ، أنها حصرت قرار التوقيف بالجهات القضائية، مفترضة فيها الكفاءة والاستقلال والنزاهة والحياد بين إطراف الدعوى. ومع وجود تلك الضمانات التي حرصت التشريعات على إحاطة إجراء التوقيف بها، إلا إن ذلك لم يمنع إن يتم التعسف في اتخاذه، وخاصة حين يسرف قضاة التحقيق في التوقيف في الكثير من الحالات التي لا تستوجب التوقيف أصلا.

          فقد يتخذ بعض القضاة من إجراء التوقيف وسيلة عقابية خاصة في قضايا النزاعات العشائرية، او المشاجرات التي تحدث بين بعض العوائل المتجاورة، إذ يتحجج القاضي باستمرار التوقيف، لإجبار المتنازعين للمصالحة فيما بينهم، وفي مثل هذا الحال هل يعوض المتهم الذي ثبت التعسف في توقيفه؟

Uddannelse for bæredygtig udvikling på danske professionshøjskoler og universiteter
Authors: Lysgaard Jonas Andreasen , Haase Sanne
Published: August 2023

Artiklen undersøger, i hvilken grad bæredygtig udvikling optræder inden for strategiske satsninger blandt danske universiteter og professionshøjskoler (Lysgaard & Haase 2021). Dette sker på baggrund af en forståelse af, at danske institutioner rykker på bæredygtighedsdagsorden i forskellige tempi og retninger (Bauer, Rieckmann, Niedlich & Bormann 2021). Grundlaget for bidraget er en kortlægning og komparativ analyse af danske professionshøjskoler og universiteters strategiske satsninger inden for området med specielt fokus på sammenhænge, overlap og modsætninger mellem strategier, uddannelsesudvikling og uddannelsespraksis (Lysgaard & Jørgensen 2020b; Wals & Jickling 2002). Forskningsfelterne, som bidraget bevæger sig inden for, er uddannelse for bæredygtig udvikling (UBU) og kritiske perspektiver på institutionelle translationsprocesser (Czarniawska 2012; Læssøe 2020; Røvik 2016). Vi har undersøgt tilgængelige strategi-papirer og andre relevante dokumenter fra alle 15 danske universiteter og professionshøjskoler, og i hvilken grad bæredygtig udvikling og nabo-begreber som bæredygtighed, grøn omstilling, verdensmål etc. optræder. Vores resultater peger på, at tre forskellige tilgange til bæredygtig udvikling er på spil: 1) Bæredygtighed som vækst, 2) Bæredygtig udvikling som understøttelse af praksis og 3) UBU som en del af en større holistisk transformation af uddannelse og samfund. Dette peger på en række forskellige tilgange til arbejdet med og implementeringen af UBU, der spænder over forgrønning af campus, komplekse koblinger mellem uddannelse og praksis, svære møder mellem ledelse og underviser-/forsker-interesser og generelt store nuanceforskelle på ambitionsniveauet mellem de forskellige institutioner.
Racialisering og ordblindhed
Authors: Filikci Hatice , Li Jin Hui
Published: August 2023

Ordblindhed menes at være den mest almindelige indlæringsvanskelighed i skolealderen, men de såkaldte ”tosprogede elever” med diagnosticeret ordblindhed er underrepræsenteret i folkeskolen (Gellert 2009). ”Tosprogede elever” har siden 1970’erne været genstand for skolepolitisk debat og pædagogiske interventioner (Buchardt 2016), men hverken uddannelsessystemet eller forskningen har haft fokus på ”tosprogede elevers” læse- og skrivevanskeligheder i forhold til ordblindhed (Gellert 2009). Med den manglende opmærksomhed på området er det derfor relevant at undersøge, hvad der kan ligge til grund for denne underrepræsentation af ordblindhed hos ”tosprogede elever”. I denne artikel fokuserer vi på, hvilken betydning kategorierne køn og race får for lærernes opsporing af ordblindhed hos ”tosprogede elever” i folkeskolen. Vores undersøgelse bygger på deltagerobservationer af undervisning samt interviews med lærere og læsevejledere om deres praksis med at opspore ordblindhed.
Det affektive samfunds udfordringer af pædagog- og lærerprofessionerne

Kan og bør man f.eks. som professionsarbejder have kendskab til, hvordan børns, unges og voksnes affekter og affektmønstre fremkommer og fungerer – også når de i høj grad er sammenvævede med deres forbrugspraksis? Kan og bør professionsarbejdere diskutere den positive psykologis dominans på det pædagogiske område og opsøge andre forståelsesrammer, der kan udfordre den positive psykologis herredømme? Kan og bør professionsarbejdere i højere grad forholde sig til børn og elever samt sig selv ud fra et bevidst affektivt sociokulturelt tilhørsforhold?
Frivilliges samarbejde med medarbejdere i kirken - med hvilket engagement?
Authors: Højlund Holger , Espersen Helle Hygum
Published: August 2023

Ved at bruge fransk pragmatisme som optik viser artiklen, hvordan frivillige, når de indgår i kirkeligt arbejde, har forventninger til de ansatte, de samarbejder med. Fordi samarbejdet er spændt ud mellem forskellige værdiordener stiller de frivillige krav til de professionelle om at være eksplorative, rammesættende, planlæggende, ligeværdige samt værter og værtinder gennem opbygning af trygge, hjemlige og kærlighedsfyldte rum. I samarbejdet med frivillige træder de professionelle ind i en arena af modstridende forventninger og uafklarethed, hvilket stiller krav til de professionelle om nye kompetencer.
Udvikling af præ-professionel identitet i en ung uddannelse
Authors: Lang Nanna R. , Nielsen Birgitte L. , Grosen Trine H. , Høyer Hanne
Published: August 2023

This paper examines pre-professional identity (PPI) in a young professional education. PPI is a matter of students’ dawning professional identity during education. The empirical material are group interviews with nutrition and health students and educators as well as participatory observation. Data is analysed using reflexive thematic analysis. The analysis shows that it is difficult for students and educators to identify the characteristics of the profession of nutrition and health. However, they do point to these unifying elements: A Bachelor of Nutrition and Health holds knowledge of nutrition and health, and works with foods, counselling and communication based on evidence and with respect and care of the individual. The analysis also shows that it impacts the understanding and development of PPI in young professional educations that students and educators find the profession broad. Therefore, it might be of relevance to facilitate students’ reflections on PPI during their education. This could be done by facilitating room for reflection across students, lecturers, head of education, and practitioners, and through a logbook for professional identity.
Et godt arbejdsliv
Authors: Nielsen Marie Konge
Published: August 2023

This article deals with how, when, and why one develops an identity as a professional. To be able to develop a professional identity a good working life is a necessary companion. The underlying premise of this assumption is that the professional needs to be able to internalize the identity, i.e., identify with the profession in a community of practice. The article begins with the Danish society’s demographic development and the appearance of the ageing society. This development is related to the concept life course and the importance of transitions. Specific attention is given to the transition from graduation to working life as a professional. The argument is that older and more experienced generations’ significance for the development of a professional identity is of crucially importance for this transition and therefore also for both attraction to and retention in a profession. The case material is based on the nursing profession.
« Soudaines clartés et ombres sanglantes » : Jean Rousset éditeur de La Ceppède
Authors: Barreau William
Published: August 2023

Cet article se propose d’étudier l’édition par Jean Rousset en 1947, chez l’éditeur Guy Lévis Mano (GLM), d’une sélection de sonnets tirés des Théorèmes spirituels. Cette édition est importante pour deux raisons. La première, c’est qu’elle est la première réédition moderne de Jean de La Ceppède. La seconde, c’est qu’elle constitue dans la trajectoire de Jean Rousset un événement qui s’inscrit dans la constitution de sa définition d’un baroque poétique français. Le choix des sonnets, la matérialité du recueil ainsi que la préface signée par Rousset sont autant d’éléments qui témoignent des débuts de la constitution d’un corpus poétique baroquiste. Le geste anthologique traduit également la lecture spécifique qu’il a faite de La Ceppède (dont il édite les Théorèmes en 1966), auteur duquel il a tiré des éléments d’une poétique baroque, en sélectionnant certains sonnets dont les caractéristiques stylistiques ou thématiques l’ont attiré et qu’il a agencés d’une façon qui annonce déjà ses travaux ultérieurs.
La causalidad formal y del ser (esse) en las etapas de constitución del ente
Authors: Serra Pérez Manuel Alejandro
Published: August 2023

En este artículo se pretende explicar cómo debe ser comprendida la relación entre la causalidad formal y del esse en las etapas de constitución del ente según el pensamiento de Tomás de Aquino. Forma y esse, que son acto en su respectivo orden, se relacionan como acto y potencia, lo cual obliga a un detallado análisis que explique cómo es esta relación y cómo su interpretación condiciona el modo de entender la constitución metafísica del ente. Llevaremos a cabo este propósito dividiendo el artículo en dos grandes apartados: En el primero abordaremos la relación entre forma y esse tal como el Aquinate lo expone en el capítulo cincuenta y cuatro del segundo libro de la Summa contra gentiles. En la segunda intentaremos articular la relación causal entre forma y esse desde el punto de vista metafísico a partir de las enseñanzas obtenidas en el apartado anterior. Nuestro objetivo es proporcionar una respuesta que medie entre las dos posiciones tradicionales que han interpretado la filosofía tomista, bien acentuando el papel del esse sobre la forma o bien al contrario la forma sobre el esse. Este trabajo entra en uno de los aspectos más debatidos en el tomismo contemporáneo, que es la comprensión de la causalidad del esse respecto al ente y la forma. Lo primero que defiende es que el esse es verdadera causa, algo que sólo tímidamente ha puesto en evidencia Cornelio Fabro. Seguidamente, después de justificar esta tesis mayor, propone concretamente el modo en que debe ser comprendida esta causalidad, especialmente respecto a la forma. En definitiva, se trata de una articulación entre ambos tipos de causalidad, de forma y esse, salvando la primacía que el Aquinate da al segundo.
Nietzsche, as forças e a psicanálise | Nietzsche, the forces and the psychoanalysis
Authors: Schiavon Joao Perci , Pál Pelbart Peter
Published: August 2023

Investiga-se o conceito de força, tal como aparece em Nietzsche e na psicanálise. Objetiva-se esclarecer e potencializar seu uso clínico. A pesquisa se justifica porque se trata de conceber o processo clínico como explicitação da força pulsional, uma vez que a tipologia das forças proposta por Nietzsche e a precisão analítica, de caráter ético e clínico, convergem inteiramente. Uma ética nietzschiana da força ativa (o amor fati) torna-se providencial para se pensar a retomada do conceito de força na psicanálise. Objeções levantadas à noção de força serão oportunas para, inversamente, justificar seu uso: equivalente à noção de real, a de força não se beneficia do deslocamento que a primeira sofre e opera. Que o real possa ser tratado pela negatividade, mas não a força, problematiza o uso das duas noções: a força jamais definir-se-á pelo impossível ou pelo vazio, e sim por atos de resistência ou sublimações. Conclui-se que ao nível dessa potência avaliadora, seletiva, não condicionada pela atualidade, perfilam-se os temas nietzschianos do intempestivo e da transvaloração dos valores. O tempo por vir das forças ativas depende de seu exercício. Esses temas essenciais à filosofia nietzschiana implicam, portanto, a consideração da força e de suas vicissitudes. O mesmo vale para a psicanálise e a noção irrevogável de pulsão. É verdade que, inversamente, a força se esclarece pela transvaloração dos valores que o intempestivo deflagra. A pulsão também só é conhecida mediante seu exercício, ou seja, enquanto ela mesma opera sua decifração pragmática. Ela requer, para tanto, uma perspectiva ética e clínica aliada às suas avaliações imanentes, extramorais. É a razão para que a análise se ocupe do sonho e de sua memória ativa, interpeladora, desde um tempo por vir.

Icariin activates far upstream element binding protein 1 to regulate hypoxia-inducible factor-1α and hypoxia-inducible factor-2α signaling and benefits chondrocytes
Authors: Wang Pengzhen , Zhu Pingping , Zhang Shaoheng , Yuan Wei , Liu Zhihe
Published: August 2023

Icariin (ICA) is a typical flavonoid glycoside derived from epimedium plants. It has both anabolic and anti-catabolic effects to improve bone mineral density and reduce bone microstructural degradation. However, the effect and underlying mechanism of ICA on the proliferation and metabolism of chondrocyte and synthesis of extracellular matrix are still unclear. This study aimed to investigate the role and regulation of far upstream element binding protein 1 (FUBP1) in chondrocytes treated with ICA to maintain homeostasis and suppress inflammatory responses. In the study, the effect of ICA on chondrocytes with overexpressed or silenced FUBP1 was detected by the MTS and single-cell cloning methods. The expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1/2α (HIF-1/2α), FUBP1, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)9, SRY-box transcription factor 9 (SOX9), and type II collagen (Col2α) in ATDC5 cells, a mouse chondrogenic cell line, treated with ICA was evaluated by immunoblotting. Western blotting revealed 1 µM ICA to have the most significant effect on chondrocytes. Alcian blue staining and colony formation assays showed that the promoting effect of ICA was insignificant in FUBP1-knockdown cells (P > 0.05) but significantly enhanced in FUBP1-overexpressed cells (P < 0.05). Western blot results from FUBP1-knockdown cells treated with or without ICA showed no significant difference in the expression of FUBP1, HIF-1/2α, MMP9, SOX9, and Col2α proteins, whereas the same proteins showed increased expression in FUBP1-overexpressed chondrocytes; moreover, HIF-2α and MMP9 expression was significantly inhibited in FUBP1-knockdown chondrocytes (P < 0.05). In conclusion, as a bioactive monomer of traditional Chinese medicine, ICA is beneficial to chondrocytes.
A Narrative Review on Emergency Management of Poisoning
Authors: Singh Rajiv Ratan , Yadav Pradeep Kumar , Tripathi Sachin Kumar
Published: August 2023

Poisoning cases are coming to the Emergency Department (ED) and cases are increasing day by day due to their easy and vast availability. Clinicians are frequently dealt with to manage critically ill poisoning patients. With the swing of prominence in managing poisoning from in-patient care to early decontamination and early stabilisation, ED physicians are playing a more dynamic role in the care of poisoned patients. The clinical effects encountered by them are dependent on numerous variables, such as the dose, the duration of exposure, the health history of the patient, to provide thorough supportive care, recognition of patients requiring treatment with a specific antidote, and to use the appropriate methods to restrict poison absorption or to increase its elimination, which is the foundation of management. If poisoning in the patient is documented early and appropriate compassionate care is commenced hastily, maximum of patients recover soon. This article is aimed to focus on the more specific issues of emergency management of the poisoned patient.
Acute Mesenteric Ischaemia: A Case Series
Authors: Babu C Arun , Jeyalaksmi T , Srividhya N
Published: August 2023

Acute Mesenteric Ischaemia (AMI) is a group of disorders characterised by a sudden occlusion of blood supply to varing portions of the small intestine, eventually progressing to ischaemia and peritonitis. The present case series highlights a total of seven cases, three of which are classified as acute superior mesenteric artery thrombosis and four as acute superiormesenteric vein thrombosis. The typically symptoms reported were sudden onset of abdominal pain, distension, and melena (a late finding). Among the seven cases, four patients who received early intervention had favourable outcomes. All patients presented late with peritonitis symptoms, except for one patient. Emergency laparotomy was performed on all patients, except for one who underwent diagnostic laparoscopy. Therefore, although abdominal pain is an uncommon symptom, physicians need to exercise a high level of diligence. If left untreated, the overall mortality rate consistently exceeds 70-90%. This case series emphasises the importance of timely diagnosis, early intervention, and immediate postoperative heparinisation, which significantly decrease morbidity and mortality.

According to Global Digital 2023 as of February, social media users in India is about 467 million. Considering the wide use of social media by the farmers and public, it is imperative to understand the usage behaviour of farmers, as it is essential for researchers, extension officials and policy makers to develop appropriate strategies for improving the technology delivery among farmers. Hence, a study was conducted among 120 randomly selected farmers in Annur and Kinathukadavu blocks of Coimbatore district during 2023 to find out the utilization pattern of social media. This study mainly focused on the understanding the usage pattern of farmers of Coimbatore district how they are engaged with social media platforms. It was observed from the study that majority of the farmers were young, educated up to higher school level, practised farming as the major occupation with medium level of information seeking, innovativeness and with high level of digital literacy. It is evident that WhatsApp is the most used tool (78%) for communication while Facebook and YouTube for entertainment purpose. It is found that the utilization index was high for messaging friends and family in using WhatsApp whereas looking for funny and entertaining content ranked top in both Facebook and YouTube. Further, significant relationship was found between age, education, occupation, farming experience, information seeking behaviour, perception and digital literacy with utilization pattern of social media. People should be made aware that it can provide real time information and support and has the potential to improve the efficiency and effectiveness, facilitate interactive collaboration and communication.

Fruit growing is one of the main strategic axis for income generation and poverty reduction in all localities. The Guinean High Savannah of Cameroon are host to numerous fruit farms families but they are underdeveloped. In order to improve this situation and make this sector a tool for development, the present study aims to carry out a socio-economic characterization of fruit farms. This characterization was carried out by means of producer surveys. A total of 101 growers interviewed were married (92%) and farmed 75% of the land acquired on a customary basis, of which only 11% had title to ownership. Over 65% associate farming with fruit production. The main obstacles to production are pests and diseases, and outdated production technique Between 40% and 70% of production is lost in the field or after harvest. Fruit production on family farms can be improved by strengthening pest- and disease-resistant fruit varieties and advanced production technique.

Published: August 2023

The study was carried out to analyse the constraints faced by maize farmers of Tamil Nadu in use of smartphone for accessing agricultural information, and to elicit strategies for improving the smartphone usage among maize farmers. Ex- Post Facto Research Design. The selected districts for the study were Perambalur and Cuddalore based on maximum area under maize cultivation. Two blocks were selected from each district, and from the selected blocks, two villages were selected for the study based on maximum area under maize cultivation. The study was conducted during June 2023. Totally 120 respondents were selected for the study based on simple random sampling technique. The responses of the respondents were subjected to frequency and percentage analysis. The constraints were grouped into two categories viz., hardware constraints and software constraints. The suggestions were grouped into three categories viz., hardware strategies, software strategies, and training needs. Most of the respondents reported that the major hardware related constraints were high cost for repair and maintenance of smartphones (70.83%), high data tariff (66.67%), and less knowledge and skill in using smartphone (57.5%). The major software related constraints were less availability of location-specific information (85.00%), information not updated (81.67%), receiving unreliable forward messages (71.67%) and less awareness on agricultural mobile apps/web portals (69.17%). The major strategies suggested by the farmers for improving smartphone usage were provision of assistance by the government to purchase high end smartphone (91.67%), sale of farmer friendly data packs (79.17%), adding voice recognition facility in mobile apps (98.33%), developing maize specific mobile apps (97.50%), developing knowledge of farmers on downloading and operating different apps and portals related to agriculture (99.17%) through method demonstration and trainings. Most of the farmers faced high cost for repair and maintenance of smartphones, high data tariff, and less availability of location-specific information as major constraints. To overcome these constraints State Department of Agriculture may consider providing assistance to farmers to purchase high end smartphones. Farmer friendly data packs and Location specific contents will also enhance smartphone usage behaviour among farmers.

Authors: Maheshbabu N. , Mohan S. Rama
Published: August 2023

Aim: In our study, we investigated, based on the premise of a long wavelength, how Hall's theory affected the peristaltic pumping of a fluid with a hyperbolic tangent within an inclined planar channel, and how both affected each other.

Study Design: Abstract, introduction, Statement, Analytical Solution, Results and Discussion, and conclusion.

Methodology: The intra-uterine fluid motion with tiny particles in a non-pregnant uterus is one of the many applications of the current physical problem, and this fluid motion condition is crucial for analysing the motion of the embryo in a uterus. Perturbation-oriented numerical research has been carried out in the current study to characterise the properties of velocity and axial pressure gradient in an inclined channel under Hall effect on the peristaltic flow of a Hyperbolic tangent because of these real-world applications. Under low Reynolds number and long-wavelength approximations, the current physical model yields the governing two-dimensional coupled nonlinear flow equations. For different values of the physical parameters, a suitable equation for the stream function is derived, and a regular perturbation scheme is used to produce the numerical solutions in terms of pressure rise and velocity. Weissenberg number, power-law index, Hall parameter, Hartmann number, and amplitude ratio relationships are examined in graphs along with their effects on the axial pressure gradient and time-averaged volume flow rate. According to the findings of this study, whereas the axial pressure gradient and time-averaged flow rate in the pumping region enhance with rising values of the Weissenberg, Hartmann, Reynolds, angle of inclination, and amplitude ratio, they diminish with enhances in the power-law index, Hall parameter, and Froude number. Hyperbolic tangent fluid has been discovered to require less pumping than Newtonian fluid.

Plant biomass can be utilized to produce bioethanol, because they are abundantly available in nature. The cost of ethanol production from lignocellulosic materials is relatively high with low yield. But this can be solved by strain improvement processes. This study is aimed at evaluate bioethanol production potential of improved strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae developed through random mutagenesis. Bagasse was hydrolysed with 1% NaOH and 1.0M H2SO4 respectively for five days. The hydrolysed bagasse was saccharified using Aspergillus niger isolated from soil samples. Saccharomyces cerevisiae isolated from locally produced wines; sorghum (burukutu) oil palm wine (emu) and raphia palm wine (oguro) with the highest ethanol production (5.0g/ml) were used, and then treated with physical mutagen (ultraviolet light) and chemical mutagens (Acridine dye, Bromo acetaldehyde, dithiothreitol, Ketoconazole and Nitrous acid) respectively to develop mutant with high ethanol producing efficiency under varied operational parameters. Three mutant strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae namely;- SUV, SCD and SCK produced higher volumes of ethanol (7.5 g/ml, 9.8 g/ml, 11.2 g/ml respectively). SCD and SCK were able to grow at 25% ethanol concentration indicating that they had higher ethanol tolerance ability than the other strains. The optimum temperature and pH for ethanol production by all the strains were 350C and 6.0 respectively. The improved strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae developed through random mutation techniques had produced more ethanol from the bagasse than the wild-type.

A field experiment on wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) was carried out during two consecutive rabi seasons 2021-22 and 2022-23 at Crop Research Centre of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel University of Agriculture and Technology, Meerut, Uttar Pradesh, India.  The soil of the experimental field was sandy loam in texture, low in organic carbon and available nitrogen, but medium in available phosphorus and available potassium having slightly alkaline pH (8.7) with an electrical conductivity of 0.327. The field experiment allocated three moisture regimes in main plots, I1: irrigation at IW/CPE ratio of 0.7, I2: irrigation at IW/CPE ratio of 0.9 and I3: five irrigations at critical stages (CRI, LT, LJ, F and M) and six integrated nutrient management (INM) modules in sub-plots, N1: control, N2: 100 % RDF (150:75:60 kg NPK/ha), N3: 125 % RDF, N4: 50% RDF+PM @ 2.5 t/ha, N5: 50% RDF+PM @ 2.5 t/ha+Azotobacter+PSB+KMB, N6: 50% RDF+PM @ 2.5 t/ha+NPK consortia were tested in split plot design with three replications. On pooled basis of two years experimentation the results showed that, the irrigation applied at critical stages (CRI, LT, LJ, F and M) resulted in significantly (P<0.05) tallest plants, more number of physiologically active leaves/plant at 50% flowering stage, days taken to 50% flowering, days taken to maturity, spike length, grains weight/spike, grain yield (48.7 q/ha), protein content (11.1 %) in grains and crop water use (541.9 mm) over IW/CPE ratio of 0.7. While, the reverse trend was noticed for soil pH and electrical conductivity, being maximum under the IW/CPE ratio of 0.7. Moreover, the highest water productivity was obtained with 0.9 ratio followed by 0.7. In respect of INM modules, the tallest plants, more of days taken to 50% flowering, days taken to maturity and soil pH were noticed with N3 treatment, which was significantly (P<0.05) higher over the rest of the treatments, except plant height, being on par with N2 and N6 and soil pH which did not show any significant variation during both the years. While, the maximum number of physiologically active leaves/plant, grains weight/spike, protein content (11.2%) in grains and electrical conductivity were recorded under N5. However, the physiologically active leaves/plant and grains weight/spike was significantly (P<0.05) superior over control and protein content in grains under N1 and N2. Moreover, the longest spike, grain yield (51.0 q/ha), crop water use (481.0 mm) and water productivity (6.38 kg/ha-mm) were registered with N6, being significantly (P<0.05) superior over the control. Further, this treatment out yielded control and RDF by 23.7 and 6.3 %, srespectively.

The present study was conducted in Kolar district of Karnataka state during 2018-19 to understand the knowledge level of vegetable growers on the effects of agricultural chemicals. The data was collected from 120 vegetable growing farmers in Kolar and Malur talukas by applying simple random sampling technique and pretested interview schedule. Results revealed that more than forty per cent of the vegetable growers (42.50 %) possessed medium level of knowledge on the effects of agricultural chemicals, more than three fourth of the vegetable growers. (77.50 %) knew that taking bath using soap immediately after application of agricultural chemicals was a must, only 53.33 per cent. of the vegetable growers knew that red colour on the agricultural chemical container indicated extremely toxic level, sixty per cent of the vegetable growers knew that usage of same fertilizer for a long time reduces soil fertility, nearly seventy per cent of the vegetable growers (69.17 %) knew about importance of puncturing the pesticide bottle to prevent its reuse and burying it in the waste land as a safe method of disposal. The results of the study implies that still majority of the farmers were largely unaware of ill-effects of agro-chemicals on various entities like soil, underground water, water bodies, soil micro-organisms, natural predators as well as their personal health. This necessitates the extension agencies to sensitize farmers on optimum use of agro-chemicals for a sustainable farming and livelihood. Other variables like age, family size, annual income, size of land holding hardly associated with their knowledge on the effects of agricultural chemicals.

Aim: This study examines the multifaceted challenges encountered by organic farmers operating within the Cauvery Delta Region of Tamil Nadu.

Study Design: Ex-post facto research design was used to investigate and reveal the challenges that organic farmers have encountered over the preceding years.

Place and Duration of Study: The study was conducted in the Cauvery Delta Zone of Tamil Nadu. Five districts were selected for the study namely, Thanjavur, Thiruvarur, Nagapattinam, Mayiladuthurai and Tiruchirapalli. Respondents were interviewed during the period of June 2023 – July 2023.

Methodology: The study aimed to include 40 organic farmers from each district, resulting in a collective sample size of 200 respondents across these districts, facilitated through snowball sampling technique. A well – structured interview schedule which included the major constraints faced by organic farmers of the CDZ was developed based on review of past literatures and discussion with experts in the area of organic farming. Based on the ranks given by the respondents to the constraints, the data was analyzed and conclusive results were obtained using the Rank Based Quotient (RBQ) technique. Constraints were studied in 7 different dimensions namely, labour, technical, service and supply, credit and economic, environmental, cropping and marketing constraints. 

Results: The prime constraints with a higher RBQ values identified in these dimensions were, Labour scarcity due to MGNREGA (93.13), Cumbersome (Slow and complicated) certification process (79.90), Lack of supportive institutions for organic farming (91.80), Inadequate subsidies for organic agriculture (92.75), Use of polluted river water for irrigation (93.90), Lack of inputs specifically for weed management (96.63), Challenge in finding proper marketing channel (90.38). In addition to this, some minor issues were also identified as constraints in the study area.

Conclusion: Through an in-depth exploration of these challenges, the study aims to provide insights that can guide policy makers, practitioners, and stakeholders in devising strategies to overcome the obstacles faced by organic farmers in the Cauvery Delta Zone which could have a threshold effect in boosting up the organic productivity of the state.
