Aim. To find and substantiate the optimal combination of elements of winter triticale cultivation technology in the organic farming system based on the use of green manure, biological products and growth stimulants of organic origin to obtain competitive organic products. This article analyses the results of research obtained in a semi-stationary experiment of the National Research Centre "Institute of Agriculture of NAAS" on the cultivation of winter triticale in an organic farming system during 2019-2020. Methods. During the research, we used field (to determine the interaction of the object with natural and studied factors), weight (to determine the yield and its structure), morphophysiological (for biological control over the growth and development of productivity elements by stages of organogenesis), laboratory (chemical and physicochemical analysis of the main products), as well as mathematical statistics using basic and special statistical indicators and criteria. Results. Work carried out, it was found that the highest yield of winter triticale 4.57 t/ha was noted in the variant where the combined application of organic-mineral fertilizer Rokogumin (3 times 5 l/ha, respectively, at 27-28, 30-31, and 58-59 stages of plant development) and organic fertiliser Bio-gel (2 times at 1.5 l/ha, respectively, at 27-28 and 30-31 stages) in combination with growth regulator Regoplant (2 times - at 27-28 and 30-31 stages, 50 ml/ha) against the background of green manure (30 t/ha of green mass of peas). This crop productivity was formed due to the optimal parameters of crop cenosis. In particular, the number of productive stems that survived until harvesting was 460 pcs/m², with a grain weight per ear of 0.99 g. Such a density of winter triticale greatly affected the weediness of crops. In the process of growth and development of the main crop cenosis, weed growth was suppressed, and some of them were suspended, and their number in the phase of full ripeness of winter triticale decreased, depending on the experimental variants by 90-95%, to 20-33 pcs/m².With regard to diseases (powdery mildew and leaf septoria) of winter triticale, there was also a slight tendency to reduce the damage to plants from the action of biological products. However, the obtained two-year results do not allow us to conclude on the fungicidal effect of the studied preparations. Conclusion. Such a combination of organic fertilizers and growth stimulant provided an increase in the yield of winter triticale by 0.55 t/ha and provided 23435 UAH/ha of net profit at 249% profitability. There is a tendency of high resistance of winter triticale to the negative impact of pests and diseases, and an increase in the degree of competitiveness of plants in the fight against weeds due to an increase in the density of cenosis. This crop is well suited for growing in an organic farming system.

Aim. To create a late-ripening heterosis hybrid of pumpkin with high yield and quality traits; to investigate the level of the adaptive potential of promising hybrid combinations in terms of commercial yield. Methods. Field, breeding, visual, measuring and weighing, laboratory, mathematical and statistical. The research was carried out during 2011–2020 at the Dnipropetrovsk research station of the Institute of Vegetables and Melons Growing of NAAS (Oleksandrivka village, Dnipro district, Dnipropetrovsk region), according to generally accepted methods in melons growing. Results. A new high-yielding, high-quality hybrid of the pumpkin Korol was created for the Steppe and Forest-Steppe of Ukraine. Over the years of research, the new hybrid has shown significant advantages over analogues in productivity traits.The hybrid Korol provides a high level of total yield: 37.1 t/ha (+ 6.3–10.6 t/ha; + 20.5–40.0%). Due to the accelerated terms of ripening (123 days), the maximum marketability of the fruits was achieved (97%), with a yield of marketable products – 30.6 t/ha (+ 8.5–16.4 t/ha; + 30.9–83.6 %). The study of the influence of ecological factors on the realization of the productive potential of promising hybrid combinations made it possible to identify highly adapted (2), labile (2) and breeding-valuable (1) hybrids. The combination Yuvilei / Slavuta (Pharaon) guarantees the production of marketable pumpkin at the level of 36.8 t/ha. Conclusions. The expediency of using the phenomenon of heterosis to increase the marketable yield of pumpkin has been proven. The newly created hybrid Korol is characterized by high competitive heterosis for this trait, which makes it possible to recommend it for ensuring the high economic efficiency of pumpkin cultivation in the Steppe and Forest Steppe of Ukraine. Promising heheterotic hybrids of pumpkin were studied and the combination of Yuvilei / Slavuta (Pharaon) with the highest ability to stably form productive potential regardless of ecological features of the environment was selected.

Field, statistical (statistical processing of research results), comparative and calculation (determining the economic efficiency of growing crops). Established and conducted research in accordance with generally accepted methods in agriculture. Results. The highest yield of white mustard (0.91 t/ha) was provided by the chisel system of the main tillage against the background of organic-mineral fertilizer, which was 0.12 t/ha (15%) of the increase compared to the control (shelf system). In general, the background of organo-mineral fertilizer provided a significant increase in productivity compared to the mineral background (13–25%) for all systems. The highest yield of winter wheat (6.51 t/ha) was provided by the flat-cut system of the main tillage against the background of organic-mineral fertilizer, which was 0.2 t/ha (3%) increase compared to the control. In general, the background of organo-mineral fertilizer provided an increase in productivity compared to the mineral background by 0.3–8%. The highest yield of soybeans (2.55 t/ha) was provided by the chisel system of the main tillage against the background of organic-mineral fertilizer, which was 0.25 t/ha (11%) of the increase compared to the control. In general, the background of organo-mineral fertilizer provided an increase in productivity compared to the mineral background (1–4%) for all systems, except for the shelf system. The highest yield of spring barley (5.31 t/ha) was provided by the shelf (control) system of the main tillage against the background of organic-mineral fertilizer. In general, the background of organo-mineral fertilization provided a significant increase in spring barley productivity compared to the mineral background (9–15%) for all systems. Conclusions. Based on the results of research, it was determined that the best option for the main tillage against the background of organo-mineral fertilizer for white mustard is a chisel system with chiselling under the crop at 25–27 cm, for winter wheat - flat-cut with flat-cut tillage at 22–25 cm, for soybeans – chisel with chiselling at 25–27 cm, for spring barley - shelf with plowing at 20–22 cm. In terms of profitability, the background of organic-mineral fertilizers is dominated by mineral by 19–25%.

Authors: Demуdenko O.V.
Published: November 2023

Aim. To scientifically substantiate the significance of the transition period after the abandonment of plowing and the transition to the No-till system for changing the agrophysical conditions of fertility, as the basis for optimizing the regime of moistening of chernozem of podzolized highly regraded low-humus soil in a 5-fold grain rotation for the conditions of the Central Forest Steppe of Ukraine. Methods. Field, agrochemical (selection of samples and determination of total humus, structure density, structural state, in the 0-30 cm layer of the soil, productive moisture reserves of a meter thick, statistical and calculation (to justify the reliability of the obtained results and develop statistical models of relationships).. The research was carried out in a stationary field experiment of the Cherkasy State Agricultural Research Station of the NSC “Institute of Agriculture of the National Academy of Sciences”. Results. When abandoning plowing per unit increase in the density of the structure, the optimization of the ratio of gaps occupied by moisture to air (1 to 1) increases under No-till systems by plowing in 1.81 times, for surface tillage - 1.98 times, and for No-till systems for surface tillage - 2.68 times. Implementation of the No-till system for surface tillage formed an average reserve of productive moisture in the crop rotation at the level of 154 mm, which was at the level of stock on plowing and significantly higher than under systematic surface cultivation. Deviation from the average o the value of the moisture reserve under the component crops was the lowest compared to systematic plowing, the No-till system after plowing and surface treatment and systematic surface treatment, which is associated with the optimization of the agrophysical properties of the 0-30 cm soil layer and the presence of a layer of plant mulch on the soil surface from predecessors. Conclusions. When switching to the No-till system in a 5-field grain rotation, it is necessary to apply a transition period with soil-protective shallow tillage, which in 5 years helps to overcome the manifestation of agrophysical degradation of podzolized chernozem due to the reproduction of the humus, structural state and water resistance of the structure, will ensure the achievement of an equilibrium state of density structures, the most optimal ratio of the volume of cracks occupied by moisture to air, which will provide a mechanism for regulating the consumption of the productive moisture reserve for physical evaporation compared to systematic plowing and the No-till system for plowing where the manifestation of agrophysical degradation remains at a high level.

Published: November 2023

This paper examines the role of religious institutions in promoting political participation in the Somali Federal Government. It argues that religious institutions can play a significant role in facilitating cooperative governance and communication between different stakeholders, which can help to build trust and consensus and create a more inclusive political process. Given the nation's historical, cultural, and religious diversity, the Somali experience is particularly intriguing due to its intricate interplay between religious institutions and political structures. By adopting a case study approach, this research investigates the mechanisms through which religious organizations participate in political processes, ultimately shaping governance dynamics. The paper draws on a case study of the Somali Federal Government, which has been strengthening its relationship with religious leaders to promote peace and stability. The study employs qualitative research methods, including interviews, document analysis, and content review, to elucidate the strategies used by religious institutions to facilitate political participation. The cooperative governance model is utilized to explore the extent of collaboration between the government and religious bodies, considering factors such as policy formulation, service delivery, and conflict resolution. Additionally, the communication model is employed to analyze the effectiveness of information dissemination between religious institutions and the government and how this communication impacts citizen engagement. The paper finds that religious institutions can be valuable in providing mediation services, building social capital, and promoting civic education. However, it also notes some challenges to overcome, such as addressing the diversity of religious beliefs and practices in Somalia.

FORMING CHILDREN’S CHARACTER TO LOVE THE ENVIRONMENT THROUGH WASTE MANAGEMENT ACTIVITIES
Authors: Shinta Arundati , Mahamudah Siti
Published: November 2023

Character building is generally carried out in schools, with the teacher as the model. This character building will be more intensive when schools achieve the Adiwiyata School predicate. Adiwiyata is a sign that the school's teachers and students have environmentally friendly habits. One of the activities that show love for the environment is processing waste in an environmentally friendly manner. There is a tendency for the character building to loosen up when the process of obtaining the Adiwiyata predicate is completed. However, character education should not stop. To overcome this, parents should also adopt the habit of processing waste in an environmentally friendly manner (making compost). If parents can do that (make compost) sustainedly, then children will be trained to behave in a commendable manner, i.e being responsible, not delaying on tasks (not procrastination), and being diligent and thrifty. Responsible behavior arises because children learn to manage their own waste. Economical behavior emerges so that less waste is processed. Diligent behavior occurs because composting must be carried out continuously since humans produce waste every day. Procrastination does not occur because waste must be processed immediately. If it is too late, the garbage will be surrounded by maggots. The existence of maggots usually will reduce the motivation to process waste, which can stop the character education

The Indonesian property and real estate sector refers to the industry involved in the development, sale, purchase, and management of properties, including residential, commercial, and industrial real estate. This sector is significant in the Indonesian economy due to its contributions to employment, investment, and economic growth. This study aims to comprehensively examine the impact of board size, profitability, and capital intensity on tax aggressiveness within the context of the Indonesian property and real estate sector. Employing a quantitative approach, the research utilizes multiple linear regression analysis with Eviews software version 12 to analyze data from 60 entities in the sector listed on the Indonesian stock exchange from 2017 to 2019. The findings reveal intriguing insights. Board size is found to exert a discernible influence on tax aggressiveness, emphasizing the role of corporate governance in shaping tax strategies. However, the study challenges conventional assumptions by demonstrating that profitability does not significantly impact tax aggressiveness. In contrast, capital intensity emerges as a significant determinant of tax aggressiveness, highlighting the role of financial structure in tax planning decisions. These findings contribute to the understanding of the intricate relationship between corporate governance, financial metrics, and tax strategies in the examined sector. The research underscores the importance of nuanced decision-making in tax planning, acknowledging the varying impacts of different variables. By providing empirical evidence, this study offers valuable insights for practitioners and policymakers aiming to enhance tax strategy effectiveness and transparency.

Published: November 2023

According to the WHO guidelines 2020, Dolutegravir-based antiretroviral treatment (ART) is a preferred first-line ART regimen for people living with HIV (PLHIV) because of its efficacy, tolerance, high barrier to resistance, and minimal drug interactions. The main aim of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of a Dolutegravir based antiretroviral therapy regimen to that of older regimens. A retrospective observational study was conducted among the people who visited the ART center on an Out-Patient basis. One to One interview was taken with the patients who met the inclusion criteria and all the information was noted down in the demographic form. Adverse Drug Reactions were noted in the Suspected Adverse Drug Reaction (ADR) Form and then we assessed causality, severity, and Prevent-ability. All the data was entered into an excel sheet and analyzed using SPSS21 software. Out of the study population of 100, 63% are females and 36% are males. The paired T-test sampling statistics revealed a significant difference between an increase in CD4 count after transitioning to a Dolutegravir-based regimen in comparison with the older regimens (p<0.001). 34 ADRs are reported before the transition and 54 ADRs are reported after the transition to Dolutegravir. The most common ADR found was rashes before the transition and blurred vision after the transition respectively. The comparison with various parameters like CD4 count, and viral load, proves that the Dolutegravir based drug regimen is quite more effective in reducing HIV load. So proper counseling and regular screening are advised to prevent the risks of the newer drug regimens.
Physicists and Computer Engineers Do Commute

Published: November 2023

When two operators, which help us to measure the physical quantities e.g. Momentum, Energy and Position etc. of a system, commute Physicists say that both quantities can be measured or observed at same time. So the title of my paper implies that both Computer engineers and Physicists can be observed working together to solve many real life problems. A physicist needs a computer engineer and vice versa. Unfortunately students of computer engineering seem to be a little unaware of the fact and they don't devote much time to learning physics[4,5,6], they seem to believe that they will be a computer programmer and they won't need much physics in future. There may be other reasons for the ignorance of this subject. Student’s approach to understanding physics can highly influence their motivation and ultimately development of great computer programs using different languages and platforms. Learning physics can help them to develop programming skills that will solve many day to day life problems. The ultimate work of a programmer /engineer is to solve our daily life problems and build a sustainable world. Here I discuss for computer engineers the importance of learning physics at an introductory level and how it will help to be a good programmer.

Vehicle to Everything (V2X) is a communication system used in a Vehicular Adhoc Networks that supports the exchange of information from a vehicle to moving components of the traffic system that might impact the vehicle. Technologies such as the Machine Learning, Internet of Things (IoT), 5G, cloud computing, have enhanced the digital capabilities of V2X technology. However, along with communication performance improvement there is increase in security and privacy issues. A trust value has to be calculated to mitigate the uncertainties and risk caused by unreliable information in vehicular environments. In this paper, a fuzzy trust model based on various vehicular parameters is proposed to secure the vehicular network.

An improved Doubly-Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) control strategy for the Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS) is presented in this paper. To produce the best aerodynamic torque and enhance the WECS's dynamic performance, a robust Super-Twisting (STW) sliding mode control for variable speed wind turbines is developed. To maximize power extraction, the proposed control directly tracks the DFIG's electromagnetic torque. The STW control strategy is contrasted with conventional Sliding Mode (SM) and Proportional-Integral (PI) controllers in terms of performance and efficiency. Chattering reduction, a finite convergence time, and robustness to changes in parameters and system disturbances are among the intriguing characteristics of the proposed STW algorithm.

In this paper, a multi-input DC-DC converter is proposed and studied for hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs). Compared to conventional works, the output gain is enhanced. Fuel cell (FC), photovoltaic (PV) panel and energy storage system (ESS) are the input sources for proposed converter. The FC is considered as the main power supply and roof-top PV is employed to charge the battery, increase the efficiency and reduce fuel economy. The converter has the capability of providing the demanded power by load in absence of one or two resources. Moreover, power management strategy is described and applied in control method. A prototype of the converter is also implemented and tested to verify the analysis.

For small-scale wind energy conversion systems (WECSs), an adaptive maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm is presented in this paper to increase wind energy harvesting. For its adaptability across a wide range of WECSs and quick tracking of maximum power point, the proposed algorithm combines the computational behavior of hill climb search, tip speed ratio, and power signal feedback control algorithms. Using buck–boost-featured single-ended primary inductor converters, the proposed MPPT algorithm is implemented in this paper to extract maximum power from the entire wind velocity profile. A laboratory-scaled dc motor drive-based WECS emulator is used to test the proposed algorithm. The in-lab experimental setup's control schemes are carried out with the help of a 32-bit floating point digital signal controller called TMS320F28335. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm's tracking capability is effective and efficient in both sudden and gradual wind conditions.

One of the problems in pastoral care is not understanding the spiritual needs and character of each congregation. A pastor acts as a parent and teacher for his congregation. In the process, a pastor of the congregation often does not reach the ultimate goal of his pastoral care, namely the maturity of the faith of his congregation with a sign of changing earthly characteristics into heavenly ones. This is because there is no brotherly love and the pastor does not fully understand the spirit of heresy that develops in the congregation and how to avoid this error that starts in the church. In line with this problem, this article seeks to provide ideas and explanations about the role of the pastor as a parent for his congregation in facing the end-time character crisis. The research method used in this paper is a qualitative study with a literature analysis approach.
