NEOLİBERALİZMİN ALTERNATİF BİR OKUMASI: ALMANYA’DAN LATİN AMERİKA’YA
Authors: SARIKAYA Mustafa , AĞCASULU Hülya
Published: December 2022

1929 krizinin yarattığı anti-liberal iklimdeki arayışlar kapsamında, kendilerini neoliberal olarak adlandıran bir grup Alman ekonomist, klasik liberalizme kıyasla ılımlı içeriğe sahip olan ve piyasa üzerinde devletin işlevlerine olan ihtiyacı merkeze alan fikirler ortaya koymuştur. Çoğunlukla Freiburg Okulu çatısı altında toplanan ve birçoğu ORDO dergisinde yer alan Alman ekonomistlerin fikirleri, İkinci Dünya Savaşı’ndan sonraki Alman Ekonomik Mucizesinin mimarı olmuştur. Bu çerçevede neoliberalizm, 1970’lerin başına kadar, teorik ve politik açıdan günümüzde “sosyal piyasa ekonomisi” olarak da bilinen dönemin Alman kamu ve ekonomi politikalarıyla ilişkili bir anlama sahip olmuştur. 1973 yılından sonra Şili’de ABD destekli askeri darbe yönetiminin, Alman ekonomik büyümesinden feyz alarak gerçekleştirdikleri reformlarla beraber, neoliberalizm kavramında önemli bir dönüşüm ve anlam kayması yaşanmıştır. Neoliberalizm, Latin Amerika’da, Almanya’da ifade ettiği anlamdan uzaklaşarak, piyasaya üstün yapıcı nitelikler yükleyen ve devlet müdahalelerine neredeyse tamamen karşı olmayı içeren bir anlam kazanmıştır. Bu dönemden sonra Latin Amerika’da neoliberalizm kavramının Almanya ile ilişkilendirilmesi son bulmuştur. Dolayısıyla modern neoliberalizm, ilk olarak 1970’lerde Latin Amerika’da hayata geçirilen Chicago Ekolü fikir ve kuramlarıyla daha fazla benzerlik taşımaktadır. Ancak bazı çalışmalar, modern neoliberalizmin temellerini Alman neoliberalizmine dayandırmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, modern neoliberalizmin Mont Pelerin Cemiyeti’ndeki toplantılarda Alman neoliberalizmine sert eleştirilen yönelten isimlerin yer aldığı Chicago Okulu’nun fikirlerine dayandığını ve modern neoliberalizmin Alman neoliberalizmi ile birbirine rakip olan iki farklı ideoloji olduğunu ortaya koymaktır.

The Mirror of Fashion
Authors:   Sofia University, Ruseva Mariya
Published: December 2022

The book “Adornments and Grimaces. Fashion and Modernity in Bulgarian literature of the 1920s and 1930s” (2022) by Nadezhda Stoyanova takes fashion out of the periphery and establishes it as a significant topic for Bulgarian interwar literature. Highlighted as an alternative to the traumatic experience of experiences of the 1920s and 1930s, fashion is conceived as an authentic expression of life – an expression of self-awareness and of the will to change the Self. The mirror of fashion reflects the various images of the modern man, in which the longing to anticipate the present and the desire to foresee the future can be recognized.
John’s Baptism as a Symbolic Enactment of the Return from Exile
Authors: White Joel R.
Published: December 2022

John’s baptism continues to be the subject of much discussion among biblical scholars. Attempts to trace its origin to Essene ritual washings or proselyte baptism have proven unconvincing as are recent arguments against the traditional site on the lower reaches of the Jordan River. It is likely that John’s baptism was his own invention and that he intended it to be a symbolic depiction of the return from exile, which was by no means viewed as complete in the first century CE. The baptism itself involved crossing the Jordan River from East to West, not just being immersed in it.

Objective: It was aimed to compare the effects of manual therapy (MT) and Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT) on respiratory functions and postural problems of young adults in this study.

Material-Method: Thirty-five volunteers were randomly allocated into IMT and MT groups. All participants received twenty minutes of IMT twice a week for four weeks. Eight sessions of manual therapy were applied to the MT group in addition to IMT. Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1), Forced Vital Capacity (FVC), FEV1/FVC ratio, Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF), forward head posture (FHP), and thoracic hyperkyphosis were evaluated before and after the treatments.

Results: Although there were significant improvements in the FEV1, FVC, FEV1/FVC ratio, and PEF scores of the MT group (p0.05). The comparisons of post-treatment scores of the FEV1, FVC, FEV1/FVC ratio, and PEF between the groups revealed greater improvements in the MT group than IMT group (p
Les impacts du printemps arabe sur l’équilibre des pouvoirs en Afrique et le partenariat turco-africain
Authors: BAYRAM Mürsel
Published: December 2022

Comment l’équilibre des pouvoirs en Afrique a changé après le printemps arabe et de quelle manière cela a influencé les relations turco-africaines sont les principales questions auxquelles cet article cherche à répondre. Le printemps arabe était un tremblement transformateur qui a affecté non seulement son épicentre, l’Afrique du Nord, mais aussi le continent africain dans son ensemble. Les puissances régionales au sein de l’Union africaine (UA) ont ajusté leurs relations internationales au changement de l’équilibre des pouvoirs dans le continent après le printemps arabe. Il apparaît que ni les liens commerciaux existants et les projets de coopération au développement, ni les réunions régulières entre les pays africains et la Turquie n’aient été interrompus par le printemps arabe, bien que la rupture politique entre et Le Caire aient accompagné plusieurs défis. Ce résultat peut être lié à la capacité de la Turquie à s’adapter aux changements géopolitiques en Afrique.

The human brain is more engaged by viewing images than by reading lists of facts. Whenever we try to view, edit, or create an image, we actually have our own interaction with the visual expression in the image. Although everyone has a unique editing style, it is a common practice in the photography industry. Photo editing enables users to enhance and stylize images in ways that would be impossible in-camera. It is much more difficult without image editing application. This paper presents an approach for the development of Windows application that can be a full-scale photo editing tool. Our application is easy to use and it also helps to store images via different extensions. The various image editing libraries used to develop this application are explained here. Different image editing features such as cropping, drawing, etc. help all type of users to use the application efficiently. The detailed explanation of these features are provided. This paper shows how image processing can be used to edit images by using various computer vision algorithms to perform several operations on an image. However, there are certain image editing applications available, but photosav is a simple and comprehensive windows application in which maximum features are clubbed together for the users

Published: December 2022

Porous graphitic carbon HPLC packing material developed by John Knox’s research group and commercialised as Hypercarb™ has been available on the market for over thirty years. However, the unique properties of this phase still prove to be fundamentally novel and provide solutions to difficult separation applications. Of these properties, its lack of an elutropic series and hence ability to provide good retention not just in reversed-phase HPLC but even with non-aqueous solvents was put to good effect in this work. Herein it was demonstrated, the resolution of permethrin isomers, the isolation of coal tar extract constituents, the separation of a homologous series of garlic oil constituents, the clean-up of plant extract fractions and the provision of orthogonal selectivity for the separation of flurbiprofen and its related substances.

The aim of this study was to determine the link between multiple directorships (MDs) and cash holdings. This study used the source from the firm’s annual report, as these studies were secondary data. SmartPLS 3.0 was used to verify the secondary data collected. This study shows that the number of people holding MDs inside the institution is growing, and this has a great effect on the organization’s interests. In addition, the findings support the first theory, which promotes chief executive officers to hold varied directorships because they contain desired elements from the companies. This study is unique because it is the first in the Sultanate of Oman to investigate financial enterprise at the Muscat Stock Exchange with the goal of achieving certainty. It evaluates whether having executives with one or numerous directorships is advantageous for the organization and its stakeholders.

Published: December 2022

Artificial intelligence (AI) and expert systems are essential and vital tools to counter potentially dangerous threats in cyber security. The protection of data requires skilled cyber security technicians for various types of roles. The essential role of an expert system is to monitor the threats and assist the technician to strengthen security. The system uses various datasets like a machine and deep learning as well as reinforced learning in order to make intelligent decisions. The Internet of things (IoT) is one of the major concerns for cyber security because it is potentially the second most likely vulnerable link in the cyber security environment because an attacker can easily gain access to the system by breaching any IoT device that is connected to the system. Still human is the strongest and potentially the weakest link in the cyber security environment. This review intends to present AI and expert systems for cyber security.

Maíces nativos morados: una alternativa para la sociedad
Authors: Antonio Bautista Adriana , Arispe Jose , Flores Naveda Antonio , Hernandez Juarez Agustin
Published: December 2022

El maíz morado posee granos con un color morado intenso y se debe a la presencia de antocianinas: subfamilia importante de flavonoides, que abundan en diferentes partes de las plantas, como: en flores, frutos, semillas, hojas de plantas, por ejemplo; cerezas, frambuesas, repollo morado, berenjena y por supuesto el maíz. Es por ello, que es de vital importancia identificar genotipos con mayor capacidad de adaptabilidad, además de estas dos variables importantes, cabe resaltar la necesidad de buscar genotipos tolerantes o resistentes a plagas y enfermedades que representen una fuente de genes de resistencia potencialmente útiles en programas de mejoramiento genético, para el beneficio de los agricultores y sobre todo agricultores de autoconsumo, los cuales utilizan su producción para su alimento, por ejemplo, en el estado de Guerrero la producción de maíces para autoconsumo es similar al 85% del territorio total.

Los granos de este maíz poseen una de las tonalidades más profundas del reino vegetal (Figura 1), motivo por el cual ha llamado la atención ya que podría servir como fuente de alternativas a los colorantes sintéticos, por ejemplo, también podría representar una fuente de trabajo para la sociedad ya que con este tipo de maíz se puede preparar bebidas, postres tradicionales, colorantes naturales que podrían ser una alternativa de ingreso económico a la sociedad, en el INIFAP Campo Experimental Iguala, Guerrero, destacan el Dr. Noel Orlando Gómez Montiel y el Dr. Cesar del Ángel Hernández Galeano con la producción de V-239 AZ: primera variedad criolla mejorada de grano azul para la región semicálida de Guerrero.
Oasis de las flores, un jardín urbano para polinizadores
Authors: García Albarado J. Cruz , Rosas López Filiberto , Bautista Hernández Laura
Published: December 2022

La producción de 87 de los principales cultivos alimentarios del mundo depende de los polinizadores (abejas, mariposas, abejorros, avispas, colibríes, murciélagos, entre otros). Sin embargo, éstos están en constante riesgo de disminuir sus poblaciones, lo cual provoca efectos negativos en los ecosistemas y la producción agrícola y de alimentos. Ante esta problemática, en 2021 el gobierno de México implementó la Estrategia Nacional para la Conservación y Uso Sustentable de los Polinizadores (ENCUSP), con el fin de asegurar la permanencia de las especies de polinizadores y plantas nativas en sitios urbanos. Esta iniciativa implicó la creación de jardines para polinizadores, de la cual “Oasis de las flores” forma parte y pretende fungir como un sitio de alimentación y mismo centro para incentivar la propagación y cultivo de especies de plantas nativas que ofrezcan, preferentemente, recursos florales para los diferentes tipos de polinizadores. “Oasis de las flores” como modelo de jardín (susceptible de replicarse en otros contextos y escalas urbanas), contribuye a mejorar la calidad de vida de las personas, ofreciendo espacios para el descanso, recreación, inspiración e incluso sanación. Este oasis vegetal ofrece alimento, agua y refugio a los polinizadores, absorbe partículas contaminantes del aire y produce oxígeno, filtra el agua de lluvia al subsuelo y reduce el ruido urbano gracias a la vegetación que lo compone, alberga una gran variedad de plantas nativas y aumenta la diversidad de especies animales. Por lo que el 14 de septiembre 2022, este jardín recibió por parte de la Comisión Nacional para el Conocimiento y Uso de la Biodiversidad (CONABIO), el Certificado como parte de la Red Poliniza que forma parte de la ENCUSP y promueve el diseño y desarrollo de jardines para polinizadores en ambientes urbanos y suburbanos, en bordes de caminos y cultivos, así como jardines regionales de polinizadores con vegetación nativa.

Wielkość mnożników fiskalnych a efektywność polityki fiskalnej w okresie kryzysów – ujęcie makroekonomiczne
Authors: Gajda-Kantorowska Małgorzata
Published: December 2022

Cel artykułu: Celem niniejszego opracowania jest przedstawienie determinant wielkości mnożników fiskalnych z uwzględnieniem specyfiki globalnego kryzysu finansowego i ekonomicznego z lat 2007–2009 (tzw. Wielkiej Recesji), jak również kryzysu będącego następstwem ogłoszenia pandemii koronawirusa w marcu 2020 roku. Uwzględniono także uwarunkowania regionalne wielkości mnożników.
Rezultaty: Na podstawie krytycznego przeglądu literatury przedmiotu przedstawione zostały: pojęcie i istota mnożników fiskalnych, mechanizm i etapy ich działania, determinanty wielkości mnożników fiskalnych, przyczyny nieliniowości dyskrecjonalnej polityki fiskalnej w fazie ekspansji i w okresie konsolidacji fiskalnej. Opisano także metody wyznaczania mnożników fiskalnych w praktyce oraz zaprezentowano wnioski z badań empirycznych z uwzględnianiem specyfiki Wielkiej Recesji, jak również kryzysu będącego następstwem ogłoszenia pandemii koronawirusa w 2020 roku.
Wnioski: Na wielkość mnożników fiskalnych wpływa bardzo wiele czynników, w tym cechy strukturalne gospodarki, faza cyklu koniunkturalnego, a także czynniki związane z poziomem rozwoju gospodarczego kraju. Polityka fiskalna ma charakter nieliniowy – w przypadku zastosowania restrykcyjnej polityki fiskalnej mnożnik ten jest większy w zestawieniu z efektem zastosowania porównywalnego bodźca w ramach ekspansywnej polityki fiskalnej. Poziom oszacowanych mnożników fiskalnych w ramach badań empirycznych, ze względu na duży rozstęp wyników, zarówno w przypadku wydatków rządowych, jak też podatków, jest bardzo niepewną przesłanką do prowadzenia polityki stabilizacyjnej przez rząd.

Previous investigations have demonstrated that interleukin-6 (IL-6), C reactive protein (CRP), tumor necrosis factoralpha (TNF-alpha), in Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients are considerably increased, and their progressive elevation are clinical threat indicators of disease severity. The purpose of this systematic review is to evaluate the efficacy of physiotherapy, specifically chest physiotherapy, on different cytokines in Covid-19 and non-covid-19 patients. The main complications and symptoms of this virus are as follows; a dry cough, fever, and progressive dyspnea. Quickly, the coronavirus, which is named SARS-CoV-21, has spread worldwide, causing severe lung inflammation, respiratory distress syndrome, cardiac and renal injury, especially in comorbidities patients. Approximately 96% of the cases experience mild respiratory symptoms; some progress to pneumonia, respiratory insufficiency, acute respiratory distress syndrome, and multiorgan failure. The overall mortality rate per number of diagnosed cases is 4.6%; it can range from 0.2% to 15% according to age and health problems. Combination MeSH and text terms were used to perform the search strategy. Interventions in RCTs and clinical trials with or without comparison were assessed. Six studies met the inclusion criteria. Studies demonstrated that physiotherapy could have an effect on TNF-alpha, IL-6, IL-10, IL-1β and CRP.

" Background: Mental disorders, especially in children, can be manifested in different ways, which is of great importance to them, so the purpose of this evaluation was to evaluate the changes in psychiatric symptoms in children with ADHD. Method: This evaluation was performed as a descriptive-analytic study on 141 children with ADHD who were followed up for 6 months. At the beginning of the study and the third and sixth months after, patients' symptoms were assessed with the CBCL Behavior Checklist and the ADHD rating scale questionnaire, as well as the course of illness and association with other disorders. Finally, the data were entered into SPSS statistical software and analyzed. Results: The mean age of the children was 5.89±0.81 years and the prevalence of males was 68.8%. Among the two treatment groups, only the mean score below the ADHD-RS questionnaire score in the non-Ritalin group at the end of the third and sixth months was significantly lower than the Ritalin group. During the study in both treatment groups, the overall ADHD-RS questionnaire and both subscales of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) had a significant decrease from baseline to the end of the sixth month. In relation to the CBCL behavioral checklist, the mean score of the total checklist except for anxiety/depression in the non-Ritalin group and the somatic complaints subscale in the Ritalin group decreased significantly from baseline to the end of the sixth month. Conclusion: Based on the results observed in this evaluation, Ritalin had a significant effect on the symptoms of patients with ADHD, although these symptoms improved in both groups, however, further studies are needed"

De Digital Services Act (DSA): een belangrijke stap naar betere regulering van onlinedienstverlening

Deze bijdrage bespreekt de recent aangenomen Digitaledienstenverordening, oftewel de Digital Services Act (DSA). Deze nieuwe verordening reguleert onlinediensten die betrekking hebben op de doorgifte en het opslaan van informatie afkomstig van de gebruikers van die diensten, zoals videodeelplatforms, onlinemarktplaatsen, bloggingwebsites, sociale media en internetaanbieders. De DSA beoogt illegale online-inhoud die via dergelijke ‘tussenhandeldiensten’ wordt verspreid beter te bestrijden en innovatie te bevorderen, maar zeker zo belangrijk is het streven gebruikers beter te beschermen in hun relatie met de aanbieders van deze diensten. Als zodanig probeert de DSA de verschillende, vaak botsende grondrechten van de betrokken partijen met elkaar te verzoenen. De DSA biedt daarmee een nieuw en tamelijk uitgebreid algemeen kader voor deze belangrijke vormen van dienstverlening, zoals de Algemene verordening gegevensbescherming (AVG) dat doet op het gebied van de bescherming van persoonsgegevens. Mede omdat de DSA een aantal innovatieve en op een open wijze omschreven regelingen bevat, zal afgewacht moeten worden hoe de nieuwe wetgeving precies zal uitpakken in de praktijk. De gevolgen zullen echter ongetwijfeld aanzienlijk zijn.

Verordening (EU) 2022/2065 van het Europees Parlement en de Raad van 19 oktober 2022 betreffende een eengemaakte markt voor digitale diensten en tot wijziging van Richtlijn 2000/31/EG (digitaledienstenverordening) (PbEU 2022, L 277/1).

Published: December 2022

The carbon market and electricity market play a decisive role in the optimal allocation of market resources, bringing challenges to the operation and development of power generation companies (especially thermal power). Based on the operation mechanism of the national carbon market, this paper constructs a cost assessment model for thermal power generation units in the context of carbon trading, with the aim of studying the impact of the carbon prices on the cost of thermal power generation both in the near and long term. The calculation results of the model show that the carbon price will have a small impact on the cost of electricity for thermal power companies and the electricity market in the near term. However, in the long term, as the carbon quota is tightened and the carbon price is raised, the carbon market will affect the quotation strategies of market players and market clearing price.
The Improved Design of a Mist Dust Removal Device for Coal Mining
Authors: Wu Xiayi
Published: December 2022

With the development of a fully mechanized mining face, comprehensive mechanized mining face, and high-capacity and high-efficiency mining face in the coal mine, the level of mechanization and productivity is being improved, as well as dust capacity. If dust density is not reduced, it will be a hazard to the respiratory system of the miners seriously, even trigger pneumoconiosis, and the normal running of pieces of equipment will be affected, accelerating insulation equipment aging, and causing an explosion. Miners’ health and safety, normal running of equipment, and economic efficiency are being injured severely.

Mist dust removal is the most widely used in coal mining, and it has been proven very effective. But the dust removal effect is affected because of the low interference resistance of the light control sensor, and small application scope of the solenoid valve, low agility of the spray device. In the paper, mist dust removal from coal mining was selected as the research background, and dust concentration detection and mechanism of mist dust removal were studied. The light control sensor, dust concentration sensor, and spray device were improved. By the mist dust removal device, online and real-time dust concentration monitoring can be achieved, and automatic dust removal can be realized according to the dust concentration.

The aim of the study was to assess the economic and production-related situation of Polish agriculture during the COVID-19 pandemic. The analysis covered the years 2015-2021, i.e. in addition to the years of the pandemic’s occurrence in Poland (2020-2021), the research period included 5 earlier years, in order to identify possible changes during the pandemic. In order to attain the objective, the data from the Economic Accounts for Agriculture – EAA, published by Eurostat, was used. A library query and secondary data from the Eurostat database were employed. Over the years 2015-2021, the value and quantity of agricultural production in Poland increased. In the first year of the pandemic, the value of production increased nominally by 13.7%, and by 8% in real terms. This growth mainly stemmed from the increase in the volume of plant production. The second year of the pandemic brought a slight decrease in the production volume – by 0.8%. It resulted primarily from yield deterioration. The time of the pandemic was characterized by considerable changes in agricultural income. Unfavourable price changes in 2021, related to a large increase in costs, caused the income from agriculture rise in the first year of the pandemic, but over the second year of COVID-19, the income situation deteriorated significantly. Worse farming conditions related mainly to an increase in the cost of loans and the prices of production means may have a significant impact on the food security of the Polish society.

The paper presents a method to determine the burning rate law and the progressivity coefficient of the fine-grained propellants shape. To achieve the objective of this paper, a series of tests were performed in a closed vessel. The results obtained from these tests were processed to determine experimentally the burning rate and the progressivity coefficient of the propellant shape starting from the premise that the burning surface has identical values for the same value of the volume fraction of burned propellant in two closed vessel tests at different loading densities. The experimental determination of the progressivity coefficient of the propellant shape shows that irregularities of the shape of the fine-grained propellants and gradual ignition lead to values completely different from the theoretical ones.

Experiments were conducted to compare the effects of Schisandra chinensis and Viscum album var. coloratum (Korean mistletoe [KM]) powders on the growth performance, carcass characteristics, serum cholesterol, and meat quality of broilers. Arbor Acres male broiler chicks (240) were fed diets supplemented with 0% (control), 0.5%, and 1% S. chinensis, or 0.5% and 1% KM in a completely randomized design. There were no differences among the groups with respect to growth performance or carcass weight and carcass ratio, but there were differences in mortality and relative weights of organs (liver, spleen, and abdominal fat). Diets supplemented with S. chinensis or KM led to reductions in total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLC), and triglyceride levels and an increase in high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLC) level. However, the S. chinensis and KM supplements produced no significant differences in proximate composition. Higher levels of S. chinensis and KM supplementation led to significantly better lipid oxidation stability and chicken thigh-meat quality (color), but there was no effect on pH and b*(yellowness). Moreover, the addition of KM had greater antioxidant and immune system effects than those of S. chinensis. In conclusion, diets with a 1% KM supplement had the greatest effect on reducing mortality and serum cholesterol levels, and increasing the meat quality of broilers.

The study of lactation curve helps to predict lactation milk production at a certain point of time and provides useful information for taking desirable decisions on preliminary sire evaluation, early culling of poor producers, breeding and feeding management and comparison of lactation records of unequal length. The test day milk yield data on 511 crossbred cattle were obtained and utilized according to fortnightly interval upto 305th day maintained at Instructional Dairy Farm, G B Pant University of Agriculture and Technology, Pantnagar (Uttarakhand). The different statistical models predicting the shape of lactation curve considered were exponential function, parabolic exponential function, inverse polynomial function and gamma type function. For fortnightly test day milk yield, the inverse polynomial function exhibited the highest coefficient of determination (R2=99.97%) followed by parabolic exponential (89.32%), gamma type (87.26%) and exponential function (35.70). Inverse polynomial function is the best fitted function for explaining the first lactation curve by utilizing the records of fortnightly test day milk yields.

Malnutrition is one of the important problems which affect the overall human productivity costing huge economic losses to the nations. Addressing malnutrition problem is one of the important components of sustainable development goals. In this context, biofortification of staple food crops could be one of the most practical, environment friendly, cost effective and sustainable approaches in the long run. Maize (Zea mays L.) being staple food crop for more than 900 million populations across the globe, enhancing the nutrient content along with yield is of paramount importance. Maize display large genetic diversity for all the quality parameters and several mutants are available each of the quality traits. Across the globe, several efforts have been made to identify new gene(s) and QTLs for different quality traits and their mobilization to develop new and improved biofortified cultivars. However, any technology or product remains meaningless unless it reaches the main stakeholders. The main stakeholders are the poorest of poor of the society who are most affected due to malnutrition. In order to make biofortification a success story, there is need to address several challenges like appreciated support price for the produce, dedicated production zones, value addition and supply chain development. The policy intervention with respect to sensitization on importance of nutrient rich cultivars and their acceptance by farmers, traders and consumers are the key to success.

Genetic improvement in root system architecture (RSA) is an important trait to achieve stability of grain yield in water-deficit stress environments. Deep rooting is a major component trait that contributes to dehydration avoidance under drought in most crops. Due to the difficulty in the phenotyping for deep rooting, genetic variability in deep rooting is less exploited in genetic improvement programme. Root angle is a surrogate for deep rooting. Here, we report a novel method to measure root angle which is easy, robust and cheaper. By using this method, 56 wheat and 29 rice genotypes were phenotyped for root angle under field conditions. Wide variability in root angle was observed among rice and wheat genotypes. In rice, about 58% of crown roots were having shallow angle (<40Â°), while in wheat, about 67% of the crown roots were in deep rooting angle (>60Â°). This method could categorize the previously known shallow rooted rice cv. IR6 4 in to shallow root category with >90% of its crown root with an angle of <40Â°. Among the rice genotypes, BAM 2574, produced >60% of crown roots with >60Â° and identified as deep-rooted genotype. In wheat CL 3791, CL 3817 and CL 3823 were identified as deep-rooted genotypes. This method issuitable for high throughput phenotyping of root angle in natural field conditions.

Monocropping, low productivity, energyâ€“use efficiency and net returns are some of the major factors that contribute to unsustainable agriculture production system in the Eastern Himalayas. Crop diversification is a sustainable option for enhancing the productivity for food and nutritional security of small and marginal farmers of the regions. A field study was carried at the farmersâ€™ field by KVK, Longleng, Nagaland during 2013â€“15 to assess the most profitable riceâ€“ based system as riceâ€“fallow, riceâ€“toria, riceâ€“vegetable pea (green pod), riceâ€“tomato and riceâ€“cabbage, respectively. Results revealed that rice yield ranges from 1.75â€“1.86/ha under the different cropping sequences. Significantly higher system rice equivalent yield (SREY) was recorded with riceâ€“cabbage (30.6 t/ha) compared to other sequences. Land use efficiency (LUE), water use efficiency (WUE), system production efficiency (SPE) and system profitability had also significantly higher with riceâ€“cabbage. The system energy returns, system net energy returns and system energy output efficiency had higher with riceâ€“pea. Maximum values of system specific energy, system energy efficiency and energy profitability had noted with riceâ€“fallow. Hence, it may be concluded that adoption of vegetables crops (cabbage/tomato) are the viable options for improving productivity, profitability and energy-use efficiency under foothill condition of Eastern Himalayas.
