Analysis of the import of milk and dairy products of the Republic of Moldova
Authors: Șcerbacov Elena , Zbancă Andrei
Published: December 2023

The purpose of this paper is the analysis of the import of milk and dairy products. To achieve this goal, such methods as analysis, synthesis and comparison were used. The informational base was made up of the analyzes carried out in the field, as well as the statistical data of the NBS. In 2023, the herd of cows in the agricultural enterprises and peasant households increased by 2 times, but the one in households decreased in 2023 compared to previous years. In 2022, the average annual amount of milk milked per cow was only 3478 kg. The objective of the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Industry is that by 2025 there will be approximately 20 thousand cows in farms with a productivity of 8 thousand liters annually. This is due to a project with the World Bank through which 25 million dollars will be accessed in the livestock sector, a fact that will allow the partial abandonment of imports and the creation of new jobs. A trend of increasing milk production at agricultural enterprises and peasant (farmer) households in 2022 compared to previous years is observed, and in households the amount of cow's milk obtained has decreased during this period. Fewer animals are raised in households, the cause being expensive feed and exhausting work. The population prefers to buy meat, milk and eggs from shops or markets. Since 2015, the value of the import of milk and dairy products, bird eggs and natural honey has registered a continuous increase.

Accounting and tax aspects of agricultural product storage losses
Authors: Cojocari Vadim , Dubinina Maryna
Published: December 2023

One of the problems faced by practicing accountants consists in the correct determination of the amount of natural perishability of agricultural products in the case of finding shortages in the respective stocks, as well as the way of accounting for it. Broadly speaking, the problem in question is conditioned by: the lack of normative acts that establish the norms (in percentages of the mass of stored stocks) of natural perishability with their differentiation by terms of storage, places of storage and ways of storage; the absence of clear and well-founded methodological recommendations regarding the authentic determination of the size of inventory stock shortages that can be qualified as natural perishability; the simplistic, non-concrete and superficial nature of points 50 and 52 of the Regulation on inventory which stipulates the way or particularities of stock inventory whose inventory by weighing and measuring is associated with major time expenditures and significant costs.

Published: December 2023

Stress is defined as the activation of complex physiological and psychological response mechanisms in situations that threaten physical as well as mental human homeostasis. Skin diseases and associated skin lesions can become a source of stress and psychological burden. Acne vulgaris affects appearance, which plays an important role in self-esteem, a person’s functioning in society, his or her psychological state, and quality of life. Stress is one of many factors considered in the etiopathogenesis of this dermatosis. Chronic stress hurts the condition of the skin because cortisol levels are increased, which inhibits the synthesis of collagen and proteins the skin’s building blocks. This study aimed to review the literature on the significance of stress in the onset and course of skin diseases, using acne vulgaris as an example. Due to the recurrent and chronic course of acne, treatment should be interdisciplinary, complemented by appropriate psychological care and effective methods of stress management, to increase the efficiency of dermatological therapy.

Authors: Arslan Ayten
Published: December 2023

This study employed a word association test to determine middle school students' cognitive perceptions and misconceptions of the key concepts regarding "cycles of matter and environmental problems." The study adopted descriptive research in survey model. The sample consisted of 457 eighth-grade students from four middle schools affiliated with the Ministry of National Education (MoNE) in the central district of Muş province in the 2020-2021 academic year. Data were collected using a word association test developed by the researcher. The test addressed eight key concepts: “water cycle,” “nitrogen cycle,” “oxygen cycle,” “carbon cycle,” “ozone layer,” “global warming,” “greenhouse effect,” and “ecological footprint.” The data were analyzed using content analysis. Concept networks were created based on participants’ responses. Participants associated “water cycle,” “nitrogen cycle,” “oxygen cycle,” “carbon cycle,” “ozone layer,” “global warming,” “greenhouse effect,” and “ecological footprint” with “evaporation,” “lightning,” “photosynthesis,” “carbon dioxide,” “ozone hole,” “melting of glaciers,” “global warming,” and “humans,” respectively. Participants did not make adequate associations with oxygen cycle, which was one of the key concepts. It was found that participants did not know enough about the key concepts from the sentences they wrote, preventing them from making scientific statements. They mostly had unscientific and superficial remarks and misconceptions.

Self-Consuming Generative Models go MAD
Authors: Casco-Rodriguez Josue , Alemohammad Sina , Luzi Lorenzo , Imtiaz Ahmed , Babaei Hossein , LeJeune Daniel , Siahkoohi Ali , Baraniuk Richard
Published: December 2023

Seismic advances in generative AI algorithms have led to the temptation to use AI-synthesized data to train next-generation models. Repeating this process creates autophagous (“self-consuming”) loops whose properties are poorly understood. We conduct a thorough analysis using state-of-the-art generative image models of three autophagous loop families that differ in how they incorporate fixed or fresh real training data and whether previous generations' samples have been biased to trade off data quality versus diversity. Our primary conclusion across all scenarios is that without enough fresh real data in each generation of an autophagous loop, future generative models are doomed to have their quality (precision) or diversity (recall) progressively decrease. We term this condition Model Autophagy Disorder (MAD) and show that appreciable MADness arises in just a few generations.
Behavioral Classification and Characterization of Autism Spectrum Disorder in Naturalistic Settings using Classical Machine Learning
Authors: Aguiar-Pulido Vanessa , Huang Elliot , Mojica Lemuel , Echevarrieta-Catalan Nicolas , Vitale Laura , Messinger Daniel
Published: December 2023

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a group of complex neurodevelopmental disorders that affects about 1% of the world’s population, impacting the quality of life of not only the diagnosed individuals but also their communities. Early detection and intervention are paramount to limit its effect on a child’s development, however overlap with other disorders and medical comorbidities make these tasks challenging. The present study explores the use of a novel multimodal, interpretable approach to characterize ASD children’s behavior in a naturalistic environment. Spatial (real-time location tracking), audio and demographic data from children in a classroom setting are integrated and analyzed to identify traits potentially connected to ASD. Our findings point to the use of this type of approach as a potential tool for screening individuals in a naturalistic setting, allowing for further evaluation and, ultimately, earlier diagnosis by a clinician. Results show good classification performance and suggest vocalization, speech, proximity and certain movement-related features to be impacted in ASD.

Clove oil is a natural, eco-friendly, and highly effective odorant for triggering hygienic behavior in the colonies of Apis mellifera. Bees with highly hygienic behavior can quickly remove Varroa destructors and other enemies of bee hives. The estimation of hygienic behavior is estimated by a pin-killed method. 24 hours of experiments were conducted for observation at different months. Observed significant difference at 3 hours (P ˂ 0.001) and a non- significant difference at 6,9 and 24 hours (P > 0.09), (P > 0.014,) and (P >0.5) for the opened cells. For the cleared cells there has been observed significant difference at 3 and 6 hours (P ˂ 0.03) and (P ˂ 0.04), non- significant difference at 9 and 24 hours (P > 0.25) and (P > 0.012). clove oil also has acaricidal properties which is very effective in controlling Varroa mites and other parasites of honey bees. For the trapping of Varroa destructor and Apocephalus borealis, the sticky board method was used, in which a petroleum jelly-coated sheet was inserted at the bottom board for the trapping of mites and flies can be controlled within a week, highly significant differences observed in the first 3 days, P-values are respectively (P ˂ 0.00013), (P ˂ 0.0011), and (P ˂ 0.01), on the fifth, sixth and seventh day no significant difference discern. Mites could control within 40 days, there has been no significant difference between the first and last week, and notice a significant difference between the second and third week (P ˂ 0.0025).

EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS OBTAINED WHEN STUDYING THE NOXES REMOVED DURING THE PRODUCTION OF COMBINED FODDER FOR DAIRY COWS
Authors: VASILE Cristian , GLODEANU Mihnea
Published: December 2023

Given the competition at the profile market, combined fodder factories have as their main objective to be as efficient as possible, which can be achieved by delivering to clients of very high quality finished products at a cost price as low as possible. Many combined fodder recipes are produced, depending on the species of animals fed and of their age.

This article analyses the production process of combined fodder used to feed dairy cows. That is because, analysing the statistics obtained worldwide, it can be seen that a fairly large percentage (approximately 16-17% of the total production of combined fodder) is directed to feed this zootechnical sector, represented by dairy cows. An essential requirement imposed by the European Union is that of maintaining a level of pollution as low as possible. That is why this article presents the experimental results obtained at measuring the noxes eliminated by the work installations during the production of the combined fodder assortments for dairy cows. The rigorous monitoring of the noxes eliminated during the production process in a combined fodder factory is necessary for the following reasons: the safety of the human staff servicing the work equipment and a lowest pollution of the environment.

Drosophila suzukii has become a species of significant concern for agricultural crops worldwide. This insect is particularly worrisome for farmers due to its short life cycle, enabling rapid and prolific reproduction, resulting in substantial damage to fruit and vegetable crops.In this context, this article focuses on examining the biology and behavior of Drosophila suzukii, providing an in-depth understanding of these crucial aspects for efficient habitat management in agricultural crops. Recent research has shed light on the species' life cycle, highlighting it as a short one with a high reproductive rate. This means that the species has the potential to cause significant crop damage if not properly managed.Furthermore, the feeding preferences of Drosophila suzukii are a key factor in its behavior. This species tends to target ripe fruits, with a particular preference for soft-fleshed varieties, posing a major challenge in fruit cultivation. Understanding this aspect is essential for developing crop protection strategies.The article also addresses how this knowledge of the biology and behavior of Drosophila suzukii can be integrated into habitat management strategies in agricultural crops. Biological control agents and environmental modification techniques are becoming increasingly important in the fight against this pest.
