Published: December 2022

Objectives:

Less than a quarter of the world population has access to microneurosurgical care within a range of 2 h. We introduce a simplified exoscopic visualization system for low-resource settings.

Materials and Methods:

We purchased a 48 megapixels microscope camera with a c-mount lens and a ring light at a total cost of US$ 125. Sixteen patients with lumbar degenerative disk disease were divided into an exoscope group and a microscope group. In each group, we performed four open and four minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusions (TLIF). We conducted a questionnaire-based assessment of the user experience.

Results:

The exoscope achieved similar outcomes with comparable blood loss and operating time as the microscope. It provided similar image quality and magnification. Yet, it lacked stereoscopic perception and the adjustability of the camera position was cumbersome. Most users strongly agreed the exoscope would significantly improve surgical teaching. Over 75% reported that they would recommend the exoscope to colleagues and all users saw its great potential for low-resource environments.

Conclusion:

Our low-budget exoscope is safe and feasible for TLIF and purchasable at a fraction of the cost of conventional microscopes. It may thus help expand access to neurosurgical care and training worldwide.

Published: December 2022

The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has badly impacted many sectors, particularly medical waste generation in healthcare facilities. The increasing amount of medical waste poses a serious threat to health and environmental sustainability. Traditional waste processing (burning) cannot be used for B3 medical waste and is often mixed with non-B3 medical waste. This is because it potentially generates dangerous chemicals emitted into the atmosphere. Meanwhile, pyrolysis as a superior thermochemical technology is an effective solution for treating both B3 medical waste and non-B3 medical waste. The waste used in this study has good characteristics, as indicated by the low water and high fixed carbon content. The pyrolysis process yields products with economic value, such as solid, liquid, and gas products. Therefore, this study aims to determine the levels of products that can be produced from B3 and non-B3 medical waste. The results showed that rubber bands produce the highest proportion of liquid products at 44%, the highest solid products were obtained from LDPE plastic waste with a proportion of 65%, while the highest gas product was produced by mask waste at 45%. Based on the results, waste with high product yields can be used as an alternative energy source, such as gasoline, LPG, briquettes, and battery-based materials.

„Niemy krzyk” ujgurskiej mniejszości – prawa człowieka w Chińskiej Republice Ludowej
Authors: Strzemkowska Natalia
Published: December 2022

Przestrzeganie praw człowieka w Chińskiej Republice Ludowej budzi wiele kontrowersji, od wielu lat w debacie publicznej pojawiają się doniesienia o łamaniu praw mniejszości etnicznych, w szczególności ujgurskiej. Przyczyną takiego stanu rzeczy jest konflikt ujgursko-chiński, który stał się jednym z czynników nasilonej represji wobec omawianej mniejszości. W konsekwencji obecna sytuacja Ujgurów w Xinjiangu wywołuje konsternację wśród społeczności międzynarodowej, która szuka potwierdzenia swoich obaw dotyczących znamion ludobójstwa za pomocą prawa międzynarodowego.
Izolacja penitencjarna a prawo do wolności religii w teorii i praktyce
Authors: Mirecki Mikołaj
Published: December 2022

Prawo do wolności sumienia i wyznania to jedno z podstawowych praw każdej jednostki. To nie tylko prawo, ale także swoista wolność ludzka, która reguluje życie w społeczeństwie. Dostęp do tych praw i wolności ma każdy człowiek bez względu na płeć, narodowość, wiarę czy chociażby status społeczny. Prawa do wolności religijnej należy przestrzegać we wszystkich dziedzinach życia. Izolacja penitencjarna to kierująca się innymi zasadami rzeczywistość. Osoby skazane prawomocnymi wyrokami sądów doznają pewnych ograniczeń, ale zgodnie z polskim prawem mają zapewnioną wolność sumienia i religii. Stanowi o tym przede wszystkim Konstytucja RP. Autor, poddając rozważaniom tematykę izolacji penitencjarnej w teorii i praktyce, pochylił się przede wszystkim nad odniesieniem rzeczywistości do regulacji prawnych, co możliwe było dzięki wywiadowi przeprowadzonemu w Gnieźnieńskiej Kurii Metropolitalnej z biskupem Radosławem Orchowiczem, który wiele lat pełnił funkcję kapelana więziennego.

La vulnérabilité des élèves vendéens à la doxa mémorielle : une proposition didactique
Authors: Gomes Lucie
Published: December 2022

En Vendée, en France, les sites touristiques développent une histoire idéologique où les Vendéens constitueraient un peuple différent du reste de Français : plus croyants, plus conservateurs, voire royalistes. Cela s’appuie sur une construction mémorielle héritée des Guerres de Vendée, où une partie de la population a pris les armes contre la Révolution française et a ensuite été réprimée pour cela. En tant que didacticienne de l’histoire, nous avons décidé de nous appuyer sur trois outils (un parc à thème, un musée, une bande dessinée) qui favorisent la diffusion de cette doxa mémorielle rendant les jeunes élèves vendéens vulnérables à ce type de discours pour ensuite analyser les enjeux qui se posent pour les enseignants en Vendée. Les professeurs peuvent difficilement rivaliser avec l’attractivité des sites touristiques, mais ils peuvent apprendre aux élèves à avoir un regard critique et réflexif sur ceux-ci. C’est ce que nous proposons en nous appuyons sur nos travaux antérieurs afin de penser autrement la dialectique entre Histoire et Mémoire et de permettre le développement de compétences critiques historiennes chez les élèves. L’ambition est de rendre moins vulnérables les élèves face aux discours qui leur sont tenus.
Movimento indígena e descaso da saúde Yanomami na Amazonia: análise sobre a falta de assistência do governo federal e as consequências do garimpo em reportagem do G1 Roraima
Authors: FERREIRA Josué , HILGEMBERG Tatiane
Published: December 2022

O movimento indígena em Roraima tem sido pioneiro em discutir pautas para melhorias nas comunidades. Busca-se discutir como esse movimento social levou à imprensa - Portal G1 RR - denúncia importante sobre o surto de malária e casos de desnutrição nas crianças na maior reserva indígena do país, a Terra Yanomami. Neste artigo, traçamos um panorama sobre movimentos sociais e indígena, indicando-os como caminho para conquistas de direitos no Brasil, discutimos o direito à saúde conquistado pelos povos originários após anos de lutas, e analisamos a reportagem especial “Terra Yanomami e o retrato do abandono: desnutrição, surto de malária e frascos de dipirona”, publicada no Portal G1 RR, em novembro de 2021, para discutir elementos que configuram a resistência dos Yanomami. Concluímos que por mais que a reportagem em alguns momentos use termos inadequados, apele na narrativa ou não aprofunde em determinadas questões, ela estabelece um novo momento sobre o movimento indígena enquanto notícia e simboliza um fruto da atuação do movimento indígena.
Los hombres y el homicidio calificado

Published: December 2022

La construcción de la masculinidad, entendida ésta como educación en el privilegio, la libertad, la multiplicidad de opciones y la seguridad de que, por el solo hecho de haber nacido varón, se es intrínsecamente valioso e importante, ¿lleva a los varones a elegir la muerte de aquel o aquéllos que los molestan, los incomodan, los confrontan, como la única solución posible para continuar adelante? Así, ¿podríamos decir que los varones eligen matar por encima de cualquiera otra opción? Elección ésta que nos habla de una masculinidad que lleva al extremo sus opciones y concepciones sobre la vida y esos otros que, cabría pensar, están ahí, justamente para aprender a convivir con ellos en un mundo de razón, madurez, equilibrio y, ¿por qué no decirlo? humana ternura. Nuestra investigación, la que nos dimos a la tarea de realizar mi equipo: Doctorando en Derecho Penal, Leonardoi Mendívil Chávez, Psicóloga Lydia Martínez Valdez y Dra. Zonia S. Peterson, fue de índole cualitativa; se llevó a cabo en varios de los penales del estado de Sonora. Entrevistamos a cientos de homicidas, entre los cuales resaltan los que vienen a continuación.
Hacia una historia de resiliencia y la pretensión de una paz duradera

Published: December 2022

En el presente documento*, el autor reconstruye un concepto subjetivo de “paz duradera” a través de la experiencia sufrida durante el 2019 en la Comuna 13 de Medellín, lo que ha implicado su desplazamiento forzado y el de su familia. En el desarrollo del mismo se procura mostrar cómo podría consolidarse una vía de perdón, en donde se corte la cadena de violencia y se viva una experiencia de resiliencia en la que se presupone el derecho a la vida que tienen los victimizadores, procurando reconstruir los elementos necesarios para defender la idea de la no-repetición de las causas que podrían consolidar un nuevo conflicto intra-urbano. Se introducirán algunos comentarios de los diarios personales de la víctima.* Este artículo es uno de los resultados de la maestría en educación que el autor realizó en la Universidad de Antioquia (Colombia).
Participação popular e democracia. O local e o global vividos ao sul de nuestra America
Authors: Silva Paulo Celso , Brugnerotto Soares Fernanda
Published: December 2022

Este trabalho visa refletir acerca do tema da democracia e participação popular tendo como referente de pesquisas as audiências públicas realizadas pela Câmara Municipal de Sorocaba, visando abarcar a escala local. Verificamos que apesar da audiência pública ser um direito dos munícipes, há uma baixa participação popular na cidade de Sorocaba quando se compara a quantidade de participantes com alguns indicadores como número de habitantes e quantidade de eleitores da cidade; e/ou capacidade do plenário onde esses eventos são realizados. E, para a escala global, os dados publicados em novembro de 2022 na pesquisa “América Latina – Unión Europea: miradas, agendas y expectativas”, realizada por Latinobarómetro, Nueva Sociedad y la Fundación Friedrich Ebert em 10 países da região (Argentina, Bolívia, Brasil, Chile, Colômbia, Costa Rica, Guatemala, México, Uruguay y Venezuela), com ênfase nas análises e gráficos relativos à pergunta “A democracia - Numa escala de 1 a 10, em que 1 é "não é uma democracia" e 10 é "uma democracia plena", onde você colocaria cada um dos seguintes países? E são listados Estados Unidos, França, Rússia, China, Alemanha. As duas escalas, local e global, escolhidas se complementam, uma vez que a globalização é vivida nos lugares. Assim, neste artigo, fazemos uma breve apresentação da Câmara Municipal de Sorocaba, definimos o conceito de audiência pública e suas características; e o relacionamos com a participação popular tendo como norte a problemática da democracia.
Anomia en las democracias contemporáneas latinoamericanas: desarrollo socioeconómico y político de una comunidad globalizada
Authors: Gómez Muñiz Magdiel , Díaz Thomé Yaniz Luis Rodrigo
Published: December 2022

La estabilidad de los regímenes democráticos se garantiza cuando el Estado de Derecho produce vías de comunicación horizontal para que los derechos humanos se ejerzan en plenitud, libertad gubernamental y en ecosistemas donde florezcan comunidades integradas, resilientes, participativas y gobernables. En este contexto, los espacios públicos son el entramado natural para modelos de inclusión derivados de la participación activa de los ciudadanos. No obstante, existe la posibilidad de convertir a los regímenes del consenso en plataformas para descalificaciones y polarizaciones ideológicas, todo ello como subproducto de un franco debate de libertades en donde diferentes posturas ideológicas incentiven la anomia. Anomia no es autoritarismo; tampoco subordinación a la voz de las mayorías; mucho menos alineaciones a regímenes social-demócratas o de extrema derecha. La anomia es una condición que subraya las ausencias de mecanismos regulatorios para impulsar reestructuraciones normativas a partir de colectivos que trazan sus prioridades desde una convivencia activa con diferencias. La anomia sobrepone al individuo a la ley y se normaliza una visión hobbesiana del hombre por el hombre sin Leviatán que los regule.
As liberdades de expressão e de imprensa sob a otica multiterritorialista
Authors: Aguiar Dornelas Matheus
Published: December 2022

A partir dos apontamentos contemporâneos sobre a ética liberal da comunicação, retomamos as discussões de Arendt e Dewey sobre as noções de público e privado, no sentido de situar em quais territórios estariam localizadas as liberdades de imprensa e de expressão. Posteriormente, partindo da noção de que essas distinções são performadas para reivindicar poder, argumentamos que o descompasso entre essas liberdades ora favorecem o público (regulações sociais), ora violentam os Direitos Humanos através da subalternidade. Diante do problema, sugerimos uma perspectiva de análise que seja alternativa a oposição entre essas liberdades, dadas em espaços rígidos, centrada nos seus atravessamentos, a partir de uma noção de “multiterritorialidade”. A partir de uma visada pós-colonialista, em função da discussão sobre a territorialidade, a subalternidade na assimetria dos espaços de escuta - para além da fala - se apresenta como marcador substancial para uma abordagem ética sobre a comunicação pública.

Authors: Элина Салмановна Дикаева,
Published: December 2022

В статье приведены результаты исследования судебной практики возложения обязанностей на лиц, условно-досрочно освобожденных от наказания. Опираясь на положения ч. 2 ст. 79 Уголовного кодекса Российской Федерации (УК РФ), суды при условнодосрочном освобождении возлагают на освобождаемое лицо такие же обязанности, которые возложены на условно осужденного. Статус освобожденных от наказания и статус отбывающих наказание - это разные понятия. Соответственно, обязанности для освобожденных должны быть ориентированы под определенные случаи освобождения, что обеспечит надлежащий контроль за ним и успешную социальную адаптацию. Кроме того, некоторые из перечисленных в ч. 5 ст. 73 УК РФ обязанностей не могут быть возложены на освобожденное от наказания лицо. Предложена авторская редакция ч. 2 ст. 79 УК РФ, содержащая специфический перечень обязанностей, которые могут быть возложены на лицо, освобождаемое от наказания условно-досрочно.

The article presents results of a study dealing with judicial practice of imposing duties on persons conditionally released from punishment. Relying on the provisions of Part 2 of Article 79 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, the courts, when granting parole, impose on a released person the same duties that are laid on a conditionally sentence person. The status of those released from punishment and the status of those serving a sentence are different concepts. Thereby the duties for those released should be case oriented and fall under specific cases of release, which will ensure proper control over and successful social adaptation. In addition, some of the duties listed in Part 5 of Article 73 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, in principle, cannot be assigned to a person released from punishment. The author's version of Part 2 of Article 79 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation is proposed, which contains a specific list of duties that might be assigned to a person released from punishment on parole.

On Initial Stage of Criminal Proceedings in Code of Criminal Procedure of the Russian Federation and Kyrgyz Republic
Authors: Андрей Сергеевич Виноградов,
Published: December 2022

Стадия возбуждения уголовного дела в том виде, в котором она регламентирована действующим Уголовно-процессуальным кодексом Российской Федерации (УПК РФ), на протяжении многих лет находится в центре активной полемики ученых-процессуалистов. Сохранить ли эту стадию в существующем виде, модернизировать или от нее отказаться? На основе анализа научных взглядов автор приходит к выводам о целесообразности сохранения данной стадии, но о необходимости ее дальнейшего совершенствования. В статье проанализирован начальный этап уголовного судопроизводства в Кыргызской Республике, где за четыре последних года принято два уголовно-процессуальных закона. Автор приходит к выводу о необходимости заимствования передового опыта Кыргызстана с целью его имплементации в УПК РФ для повышения эффективности функционирования механизмов стадии возбуждения уголовного дела.

Initiation stage of criminal proceedings as it is regulated in the current Code of Criminal Proceedings of the Russian Federation (CCP) has been for a long time the focus of processionist scholars active debates. The question is whether to keep this stage as it is, to upgrade the one or to abandon it. On the basis of the analysis of various scientific viewpoints the author concludes that this stage should be retained yet to be further improved. The article provides analysis of the initial stage of criminal proceedings in Kyrgyz Republic wherein 2 criminal procedure laws have been adopted over the past four years. The author concludes that it is necessary to emulate the best practices of Kyrgyzstan in order to implement the ones into CCP of the Russian Federation so that to raise the efficiency of functioning criminal case initiation stage.

Reconstruction of NMR Relaxation Rates from Coarse-Grained Polymer Simulations
Authors: Gravelle Simon , Beyer David , Brito Mariano , Schlaich Alexander , Holm Christian
Published: December 2022

NMR relaxometry is a powerful and well established experimental approach to characterize dynamic processes in soft matter systems. All-atom (AA) resolved simulations are typically employed to gain further microscopic insights while reproducing the relaxation rates $R_1$. However, such approaches are limited in time and length-scales that hinder modeling of systems like long polymer chains or hydrogels. Coarse-graining (CG) can overcome this barrier at the cost of loosing atomistic details that impede the calculation of NMR relaxation rates. Here, we address this issue by systematic characterization of $R_1$ while performing systematic measurements on a PEG-H$_2$O mixture at two different levels of details: AA and CG. Remarkably, we show that NMR relaxation rates $R_1$ obtained at the CG level obey the same trends when compared to AA calculations, but with a systematic offset. We find this offset to be due to, on the one hand, the lack of an intra-monomer component and, on the other hand, the inexact positioning of the spin carriers. We show that the offset can be corrected for quantitatively by reconstructing a posteriori the atomistic details from the CG trajectories.
BIOFERTILIZERS- A BRIEF INSIGHT
Authors: Badhai Sirpat
Published: December 2022

Chemical fertilizers are more commonly used for crop production nowadays, which has a negative impact on soil and environmental quality. The rising use of chemical inputs in agricultural production systems harmed the sustainability of agricultural crop production systems, raised cultivation costs, and reduced partial factor productivity, making preserving global food security and environmental quality a difficult task. Increasing usage of commercial agrochemicals over the previous century led in bioaccumulation of various pollutants in agricultural soils and surrounding water bodies. Various scientists have observed that the constant and indiscriminate use of primary nutrients (N, P, and K) has resulted in numerous micro and secondary nutrient shortage as well as a negative impact on soil health. Microorganisms can play a variety of roles in organic farming's long-term sustainability. According to the literature, using nitrogenous fertilizers under certain meteorological conditions might result in the release of nitrous oxide (N2O), which contribute to the greenhouse effect and causes environmental imbalances. As a result, biofertilizers microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, and algae have been proposed as potential solutions for large-scale agricultural practices that are not only ecological, ecofriendly, and cost-effective, but also sustain soil structure and biodiversity. Microbes as biofertilizers are being investigated as an alternative to chemical fertilizers in the agricultural industry because of their vast potential for improving crop yield and food safety.

Published: December 2022

Nepal, a country whose most of the economy is dependent on agriculture yearns to be self-sufficient but due to an unaware as well as ignorant population and poor infrastructure, the productivity is still unsatisfactory. As a result of which, haphazard use of pesticides was exercised. To resolve this problem, IPM tactics were introduced that includes a combination of biological, physical, chemical, cultural, and all kind of strategies to minimize pest risk and improve the yield sustainably. IPM components must be institutionalized in appropriate educational, research, extension, and farmer groups, as IPM has been proposed as an option for reducing pesticides overuse and misuse. The dissemination of these tactics to all levels of farmers is still underway in Nepal. However, the impacts seen are considerable. According to various research, the implementation of IPM tactics and approaches has drastically (more than 50%) reduced pesticide uses and increased yield by more than 10% in a very short period. Its complete execution is yet to be obtained which will revolutionize the agricultural practices and economic pattern of import and export.

The ove ruse of chemicals and pesticides on the concept of increasing production is declining soil health, biodiversity, and cropland. As a result of which it has been a major threat to agricultural longevity to be thesame in future generations. Organic agriculture boosts agricultural production while also improving soil and consumer health, and it appears to be a superior alternative in many nations where the integrated croplivestock system is still widespread. The paper attempts to bring light on the current scenario of paced organic agriculture and the solutions to restore pesticide-dominated agricultural farming.

Authors: Khulal A. , karki D. , Sharma P. , Gnyawali P. , Banjade N.
Published: December 2022

This study was done to determine the effect of different seed priming methods on germination and seedling parameters of black gram. The experiment was laid out in Completely Randomized Design replicated thrice. Treatment combinations were; control (no priming), hydro priming, Osmo priming (PEG-10% and 20%), halo-priming (1% NaCl and 1% KNO3), and hormonal priming (Salicyclic acid 125ppm). For all treatments, seeds were soaked for 12 hours and dried in ambient conditions, and grown for 8 days at 24°C in a germinator, and readings were taken. PEG (10%) exhibit the highest GP (96.8) followed by hydro priming (94.4). 1 % NaCl showed the highest value of GE and GI. The highest value of MGT was shown by PEG (10%). Whereas the highest value of CVG was given by Salicylic acid 125 ppm. The seedling parameters like root length (10.251), shoot length (10.671), and dry weight (4.580) was maximum in seeds primed with Salicyclic acid except for the SVI which was highest in PEG 10% primed seeds (1846.708). The lowest value of seed GP and SVI was shown by non-primed seeds. It was found that primed seeds were superior over non primed ones regarding parameters studied.

Published: December 2022

Organic amendment has a great potential to increasingly replace the use of mineral fertilizer and pesticide for sustainable crop production. A screen house experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of organic amendments on the growth of two cowpea varieties with and without mycorrhiza inoculation. The experiment was a completely randomized design and a factorial combination of two cowpea varieties (IT99K573-1-1 and Oloyin), two levels of inoculation with mycorrhiza (with and without) and five levels of organic amendments (formulated from palm kernel cake, oil palm empty fruit bunch ash, plantain peels and Tithonia). Each treatment combination had six replicates. Organic amendments were incorporated two weeks before planting of cowpea seeds and inoculation of mycorrhiza to the soil. Data were collected on cowpea growth attributes such as the number of leaves, number of branches, plant height, stem girth and leaf area. Data were subjected to analysis of variance using the GenStat Discovery Edition 4 and treatment means were separated using the Duncan’s Multiple Range Test at α0.05. Organic amendment 5 (control) was best in terms of mean values for number of leaves, number of branches and plant height. Cowpea plants inoculated with mycorrhiza were best for all growth attributes. In the residual experiment, Oloyin variety with organic amendment 3, previously inoculated with mycorrhiza and had the highest mean number of leaves and oloyin variety with organic amendment 4 not previously inoculated with mycorrhiza and had the highest mean plant height. Therefore, we need to transform and use some of the agricultural waste that are rich in nutrient particularly in phosphorus as a source of organic fertilizer for cowpea cultivation.
Loss of surface transport is a main cellular pathomechanism of CRB2 variants causing podocytopathies

Published: December 2022

Crumbs2 (CRB2) is a central component of the renal filtration barrier and part of the slit diaphragm, a unique cell contact formed by glomerular podocytes. SomeCRB2variants cause recessive inherited forms of steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome. However, the disease-causing potential of numerousCRB2variants remains unknown. Here, we report the establishment of a live-cell imaging–based assay, allowing a quantitative evaluation of the pathogenic potential of so far non-categorizedCRB2variants. Based on in silico data analysis and protein prediction software, putative disease–associated CRB2 missense variants were selected, expressed as CRB2-GFP fusion proteins, and analyzed in reporter cell lines with BFP-labeled plasma membrane. We found that in comparison with PM-localized WT, disease-associated CRB2 variants remained predominantly at the ER. Accumulation at the ER was also present for several non-characterized CRB2 variants and variants in which putative disulfide bridge–forming cysteines were replaced. Strikingly, WT CRB2 retained inside the ER in cells lacking protein disulfide isomerase A3, indicating that posttranslational modification, especially the formation of disulfide bridges, is a crucial step for the CRB2 PM transport.
Literature Review: Model Edukasi Menyusui Untuk Suami

Published: December 2022

Breastfeeding can prevent annual deaths in children, including having a positive impact on the country's economy and even at the family level. Men are often forced to be involved in breastfeeding and caregiving, but the approach of the Maternal and Child Health (MCH) program is too girly, which often makes men feel alienated. Breastfeeding education for men is not impossible. This paper tries to describe several models that have been shown to have a positive impact on breastfeeding success using the literature review method. The results show that some face-to-face models for 2-3 hours can be done with several sessions for 2-3 weeks. Other models without face-to-face can also be done, for example by providing flyers, booklets, and disseminating information through mass media including education through Facebook and WhatsApp groups and smartphone applications. The government and health services should start seeing men as subjects in the MCH program and start developing breastfeeding education activities for fathers, even if breastfeeding education activities are combined with mothers, they should use a gender-free approach.

The previous takakura composting model used takakura baskets covered with cloth and cardboard to produce leachate through the wastebasket process which seeped and wetted the cloth and cardboard. It was also found that the increase in the C/N ratio did not meet the requirements. Therefore an innovation was carried out in this study which aims to determine the effectiveness of making compost with the Takakura Model which uses a plastic bucket with filter media to accommodate the leachate produced so that the leachate can also be used as raw material for liquid fertilizer. The materials used are organic waste, EM4, and cow dung in the community in Way Layap Hamlet, Hajimena Village, Natar District. This research is an experiment. The independent variables in this study were 3mm, 4mm, and 5mm filter diameters for buckets, cow dung, organic waste, and EM4. The dependent variable in this study was the quality of compost (organic C, macronutrients (N+P2O5+K2O), C/N ratio, and pH for 15 days. The results obtained were compost quality (organic C 15.63%, macronutrients (N+ P2O5+) K2O) ranges from (6.71% -7.87%), C/N ratio ranges from (13.44-16.57) and pH 7-8.5 all meet standards according to SNI 7763: 2018.
