Authors:   Timirâzevskaâ selʹskohozâjstvennaâ akademiâ, Klevtsova T.A.  ,   Melitopol State University
Published: February 2025

The on-farm production of compound feeds from the farm own grain reduces feed costs. The introduction of technological lines for the production of compound feeds in the form of technological modules using gravitational, inertial and centrifugal impact on feed materials will enable small grain processing enterprises to receive a wide range of compound feeds of high quality at a low cost. In order to design high-performance and low-energy feed preparation units of a block-module type, the authors carried out a technical and technological analysis of small grain processing enterprises. As a result, they have developed a block-module unit, including a gravity separator through which grain passes (before being crushed in a direct impact crusher) and grinding products (before preparing compound feeds), as well as a continuous volumetric dispenser with a cylindrical working body and a high-speed mixer humidifier. Compared with its counterparts, the unit ensures the same quality of compound feeds, but at the lowest power consumption (8 kW) and minimal costs when used for the production of a given type of compound feed (only opening and closing the corresponding dispensers). The developed unit will make it possible to obtain a wide range of low-cost high-quality compound feeds.

Published: February 2025

A qualitative study of greenhouse carbon dioxide transformation in the soil-plant-atmosphere system requires appropriate tools to make ecosystem models, record the occurring transformations, and process the obtained data. To expand the methodology forstudying carbon dioxide flows, the authors developed an installation forstudying the mechanisms of CO2 transformation in the soil-plant-atmosphere system, simulating and ensuring autonomous vital activity of a plant organism with parallel recording and demonstration of the daily dynamics of CO2 concentration inside a completely closed system. For a more detailed assessment of carbon dioxide transformation, the installation ensures complete isolation of the leaf and underground parts of plants. Afoxglove tree (Paulownia) seedling weighing 7.47 g was used to test the installation; its formed roots were immersed in river sand enriched with a solution of nitroammophoska (NPK 16:16:16). For 30 days, the iMK LoRa measuring system recorded the absorption and emission of CO2 in two zones of the installation every 5 minutes. The model experimentshowed that the plant is able to continue its development and growth in the absence of an externalsource of carbon dioxide, and biomass (+111.8%) is formed due to the mechanism of root carbon nutrition. In this case, soil carbon partially (76.4%) goesinto the atmosphere as a result of plant respiration and is again absorbed in the light phase, thereby providing a “small carbon cycle”. Another part of the soil carbon (23.6%) takes direct part in the formation of plant biomass, bypassing the transformation through foliation. The proposed installation can identify the features of carbon nutrition modes of various agricultural crops for furtherselection of means and agrotechnical methodsfor biomassregulation.
Sharp edges led us here

This work explores the intersections of digital technology and creative poetic expression by integrating binary code as its artistic medium. Inspired by the duality embedded in binary constructs, the authors interrogate how unseen frameworks unify ideologies while perpetuating the damaging effects of singularity. Drawing on Gottfried Leibniz’s foundational binary systems, this piece metaphorically examines the pervasive role of binary operations in modern society. The poem’s binary translation integrates code writing using Python, as a part of combined efforts to make visible the boundaries that often prevent collaboration between technological and social disciplines. By playing with these structures, the authors advocate for a shift away from binary constructs toward embracing complexity, offering a transformative lens in hopes for the reconsidering of the systems that influence human lived experiences.

A Post-Pandemic Wellness Experiences Scale: Demographic Variation and Influences on Depression
Authors: Tawa John , Insalaco Milena E. , Jiang Nancy , Lorenzo Alejandra
Published: February 2025

We developed a post-pandemic wellness scale (PPWS) to help understand some of the specific reasons why the pandemic may have differentially impacted the mental health of people from various sociodemographic groups. With an initial sample of 404 adults (74.3% White) collected in 2021 and in close proximity to the pandemic, we established adequate fit for a four-factor model of post-pandemic experiences including financial stress, social stress, and existential stress, and positive reframing experiences, which each predicted depression in the expected directions. In this initial sample, we found some evidence of race-based differences in post-pandemic experience as they related to mental health. In the interest of replicating these findings with more robust samples of non-White racial and ethnic groups, we collected a second sample of 462 adults (26% White) in 2024. Although we failed to replicate our race-based findings, we were able to verify the fit of the four-factor model. Moreover, some exploratory findings related to participant demographics were consistent across sample cohorts, including the influences of age and gender on post-pandemic experiences. In addition, all four PPWS subscales continued to predict depression in the expected directions. Thus, in two samples assessed in proximity to and more distally from the fallout of the coronavirus pandemic, we find evidence for the psychometric stability and predictive validity of our scale for mental health. We expect this scale to be useful to future researchers and clinicians attending to the pervasive impact of the pandemic on mental health and wellbeing.
Consumer Protection in the Digital Era: Challenges and Solutions from an Islamic Legal Perspective
Authors: Wibowo Dwi Edi
Published: February 2025

Technological advancements have transformed buying and selling transactions from conventional to digital, providing convenience for people in conducting transactions. However, this progress also brings new challenges for consumers, particularly regarding protection from fraud, privacy issues, and fulfillment of consumer rights. Consumers' personal data stored in digital systems is vulnerable to misuse, and there is no guarantee that the goods or services received match the agreement with the seller. This study aims to analyze consumer protection challenges in the digital era from an Islamic legal perspective and offers solutions based on sharia principles. This research employs a normative legal method with a literature study approach. The findings reveal that Islamic law, through primary sources such as the Qur'an, Sunnah, Ijma', and Qiyas, as well as muamalah principles such as ash-shiddiq (honesty), al-adl (justice), and al-ihsan (benevolence), provides a strong foundation for consumer protection in the digital era. The study highlights that Islamic law not only emphasizes technical protections but also ethical and moral aspects in digital commerce. In conclusion, consumer protection solutions from an Islamic perspective include three main aspects: transparency in digital transactions, strengthening sharia-based regulations, and enhancing consumer education. By applying the values of justice, honesty, and responsibility in transactions, the goal is to establish safe and fair digital transactions for all parties involved

Published: February 2025

Pulmonary Embolism (PE) can present with symptoms resembling pneumonia, creating a diagnostic challenge, particularly in patients with comorbidities. We report the case of a 67-year-old male who presented with cough, hemoptysis, shortness of breath, fever, and pedal edema. Initially diagnosed with consolidation based on chest X-ray findings, he was treated with antibiotics. However, persistent symptoms prompted further evaluation, leading to the diagnosis of PE with pulmonary infarction and deep vein thrombosis on computed tomography pulmonary angiography and Doppler ultrasound. This case highlights the need to consider PE in the differential diagnosis of consolidation, particularly in high-risk individuals, to avoid delays in appropriate management.

Published: February 2025

The rapid evolution of telemedicine and mobile health imaging technologies has transformed the landscape of healthcare delivery, offering unprecedented opportunities to bridge gaps in access, particularly in rural and underserved regions of the United States. As traditional healthcare systems grapple with challenges such as provider shortages, geographic barriers, and rising operational costs, telemedicine and mobile imaging present scalable, cost-effective solutions that can enhance diagnostic capabilities and patient care. These technologies leverage advancements in digital communication, artificial intelligence (AI), and portable diagnostic devices to deliver real-time consultations, remote monitoring, and imaging services directly to patients, regardless of location. However, the successful implementation and expansion of these innovations depend on the development of sustainable business models that address key factors such as technology adoption, regulatory compliance, reimbursement policies, and infrastructure investments. This paper examines various business strategies, including subscription-based models, pay-per-use frameworks, and public-private partnerships, that have proven effective in integrating telemedicine and mobile imaging into mainstream healthcare. Additionally, it highlights the role of policy reforms and technological interoperability in fostering an environment conducive to the widespread adoption of these services. Focusing on the U.S. healthcare system, the paper explores how these business models can be tailored to meet the unique needs of diverse populations, reduce healthcare disparities, and improve outcomes through timely and efficient care delivery. Ultimately, this research underscores the transformative potential of telemedicine and mobile health imaging technologies in creating a more accessible, equitable, and patient-centered healthcare system across the nation.

Published: February 2025

This study was carried out on the Saga rice growing area near Niamey. The main objective is to analyze current water management practices and identify improvement opportunities for more efficient and equitable use of water resources. A mixed methodological approach was used, combining surveys of local stakeholders, direct observations and documentary analysis. The results showed that although local management structures exist, they encounter difficulties linked to the coordination of users and the maintenance of infrastructure. Traditional practices, although still in force, are not always adapted to modern challenges, such as climate variability and increasing population pressure. Regarding the satisfaction rate of water allocated to irrigators, we note an average water coverage of the area is estimated at 82% for dry season rice cultivation and 51% for rainy season rice cultivation. Regarding performance indicators, there are low levels of fluctuations in agricultural reinforcement rates, with coverage estimated at 73% during the dry season and coverage of irrigation water demand of 82%, directly at 97%. % during the campaign. Achievable with a coverage rate of irrigation water demand of 51% during the winter season. The agricultural efficiency (Ea) values of irrigation water for all crops are low. Based on these observations, solutions were proposed for good participatory governance, improving infrastructure and integrating innovative approaches to integrated water resources management. These proposals aim to ensure sustainable and long-term management of the irrigated area, while meeting the growing needs of users.

DEVELOPMENT OF ECONOMIC METHODOLOGY IN THE CONTEXT OF SOCIO-ECONOMIC TRANSFORMATIONS IN THE 21ST CENTURY
Authors: Babukh Ilona , Halin Anatolii
Published: February 2025

Modern economic methodology is in the process of profound changes, determined by the development of scientific and technological progress and the complexity of socio-economic systems. Since the late 20th century, economics has been experiencing a crisis that requires new approaches to the methodology of research, in particular, in economic theory. A significant methodological boom, which has led to the allocation of economic methodology as a separate scientific subdiscipline, has been noted. It combines the views of economists, philosophers, psychologists and research methodologists. This allowed to expand the subject field of economic methodology including epistemological issues, in particular, the study of the economic knowledge structure and the cognition process. Methodological approaches to economics have undergone significant changes with the emergence of new theoretical guidelines, such as neopositivism and general theory of equilibrium. Econometrics that focuses on empirical data also occupies an important place.
The distinction in economics is made between normative and positive methodology. The normative methodology defines the ideals and standards of research, often criticizing practical application, while positive methodology focuses on empirical research and creation of working hypotheses to solve specific economic issues. Taking into consideration the complexity of modern socio-economic systems, the economic methodology must consider not only economic, but also social, cultural and moral factors. This also includes issues of moral factors in economic progress, where the man is considered as the central element of economic processes.
The development of economic methodology in Ukraine in the 21st century is focused on training young researchers, but it also requires in-depth research aimed at updating its theoretical and practical aspects. Modern research in economics emphasizes the importance of integrating various disciplines for the deeper understanding of economic processes, where moral and socio-cultural components play a significant role. Thus, economic methodology undergoes the transformation process that reflects changes in the economics as part of complex social and cultural systems' perception.

Authors: Cherkasova Svitlana
Published: February 2025

This article addresses the evolving challenges of modern business environments characterized by volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity (VUCA) and, more recently, the brittle, anxious, nonlinear, and incomprehensible (BANI) world. The article emphasizes the critical need to enhance professional competencies among managerial personnel within Ukrainian enterprises, especially during crises like the ongoing wartime uncertainty. It explores the transformation of key competencies required to navigate rapid technological, economic, and societal changes effectively.
The aim of the article is to develop a set of modern requirements and approaches for building the professional competencies of managerial personnel in domestic enterprises under conditions of uncertainty, through the lens of the concept of sustainable human development (human potential development).
Achieving this goal requires expanding knowledge about the concept of professional competence of managerial personnel in domestic enterprises, as individuals making managerial decisions in a rapidly and chaotically changing business environment, through the lens of the concept of sustainable human development (human potential development).
The article analyzes historical and emerging paradigms of crisis management, such as VUCA, BANI, SHIVA, and TACI, examining their implications for competency development. It underscores the importance of fostering resilience, adaptability, creativity, critical thinking, and emotional intelligence among decision-makers. These traits are essential for effective problem-solving and maintaining competitiveness in dynamic environments.
The findings highlight the necessity of continuous professional development and the integration of innovative management frameworks, like hybrid project management and the "Cynefin" model, to improve decision-making processes. The research also identifies the urgent need for strategies that enhance cognitive, emotional, and behavioral capabilities to manage the increasing demands of complex and unpredictable business ecosystems.
This article concludes that adapting to these challenges requires an interdisciplinary approach, combining theoretical insights with practical tools to support sustainable human and organizational development.

METHODOLOGICAL APPROACHES TO CREATING RISK MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES FOR MODERN ENTERPRISES
Authors: Ovsiienko Nataliia , Kotvytska Nataliia , Ovsiienko Volodymyr
Published: February 2025

The article proposes a concept for a risk management strategy for modern enterprises. Entrepreneurial activity encompasses numerous aspects, ranging from the movement of goods to the relocation of orders in the market space and time, influenced by various factors related to different risks. One of the fundamental principles of production is the principle of reliability. Therefore, risks in business must be minimized or even eliminated. Many corporate risks may be associated with the characteristics of goods that arise during the provision of economic services. These risks can be avoided or mitigated during the planning process of contract execution. The risk management process of an enterprise should be based on a related strategy and a set of procedures approved by its management. Otherwise, the organization faces serious financial consequences from business activities conducted by individuals responsible for risk management. The best solution is to create a document that outlines the goals and principles of risk management, as well as designates responsible individuals for various elements of this process. Transparency in the risk management system, both internally and externally, is considered a fundamental requirement that ensures the safety of the enterprise's operations. In Ukraine, the attitude toward the problem of active risk management remains predominantly formal and general, lacking sufficient scientific support. Practical solutions are limited to the use of standard tools, which mainly provide only procedures for transferring or distributing risk. In modern business, existing financial instruments for insurance, such as self-insurance and co-insurance, as well as risk hedging, are becoming increasingly expensive or less effective.
The creation of a risk management strategy for modern enterprises is considered an important task for management in the current unstable environment. Global experience shows that leading companies pay significant attention to developing appropriate management strategies and seeking effective methods for assessing and minimizing risk. The primary task of creating such a management strategy is the professional diagnosis of the likelihood of risk occurrence, identifying the weaknesses in the enterprise's economic activities, and finding management solutions to ensure an effective balance between risk and profit, minimizing losses in the event of adverse occurrences, and preventing them.
