RNA INTERFERENCE IN THRIPS VECTORS: A STEP FORWARD TOWARD SUSTAINABLE MANAGEMENT
Authors: Vavilapalli Rajesh , V Rakesh , Jangra Sumit , Ghosh Amalendu
Published: April 2023

Thrips are major pests of agricultural and horticultural crops worldwide. In addition to causing direct damage, thrips are the most common vector of tospoviruses. Currently, thrips control is mostly based on chemical insecticides, but effective control can be difficult to achieve because it has developed resistance to various insecticides. Therefore, there is an urgent need for novel alternative management options. A viable strategy for the management of the virus-vector complex involves understanding the molecular links between thrips and viruses and disrupting their association. RNA interference, a sequence-specific method to suppress target gene expression, is a conserved process in all eukaryotic organisms and has emerged as a new tool for reverse genetics and potential pest control. Advancements in RNA interference-based gene silencing techniques in the past few years could potentially be utilized in the management of the thrips-tospovirus complexes. RNA interference-mediated plant protection strategies have the potential to revolutionize pest management practices in a sustainable and effective way if development is carried out profoundly by discerning bioinformatics identification, in-silico designing of RNAi trigger molecules, laboratory and field-based toxicity and biosafety investigations.
BIORATIONAL MANAGEMENT OF GRAM CATERPILLAR HELICOVERPA ARMIGERA (HUBNER) IN CHICKPEA UNDER ORGANIC FARMING
Authors: Singh Subash
Published: April 2023

Chickpea is vulnerable to the broad range of insect pests of which the gram caterpillar Helicoverpa armigera is a major pest, and farmers merely rely on pesticides to manage this pest. As pesticides result in many environmental hazards, biorational products are given importance. In this study, Brahamastra and Agniastra @ 10, 15 and 20 litres ha-1 and Neemastra @ 250 litres ha-1 were evaluated against H. armigera in chickpea in 2019-20 and 2020-21. Incidence of H. armigera larvae was significantly less in Agniastra @ 20 litres ha-1 (2.58/ metre plant row) followed by Brahamastra @ 20 litres ha-1 (2.65/ metre plant row) compared to untreated control (3.77/ metre plant row). Agniastra gave maximum pest reduction over control with the least damaged pods. The grain yield was also highest with Agniastra @ 20 litres ha-1 (1011.67 kg ha-1) with economic returns of Rs. 4382.06 ha-1.
Governance by numbers: risico’s verbonden aan de internationale benchmarking en ranking van pensioensystemen

Governance by numbers: risks associated with international benchmarking and ranking of pension systems

This article points out some of the pitfalls and ambiguities involved in quantified cross-national policy comparisons by looking at the construction and use of standardized indicators in the field of pension policy. The empirical analysis looks at three cases where the OESO and EU use standardized pension indicators to score and rank the performance of national pension systems. The cases illustrate some of the problems associated with scoring and ranking the outcomes of unique and complex pension systems by means of internationally standardized indicators. Our results show that internationally standardised indicators for pension systems are not neutral in the sense that they favor countries with certain institutional pension policy mixes over others. When particular institutional characteristics are treated differently under the same metric, systematically distorted conclusions about the performance of national pension systems may, and likely do, result. Consequently, these observed biases hinder reliable cross-national comparison that is based on these indicators. The article concludes with some recommendations on the construction and use of international indicators in the field of pension policy. It also discusses where research on the process of commensuration – transforming qualities into quantities − in a comparative context should go from here.

Professional expertise according to civil servants

Professional expertise is crucial to the functioning of government. Although the vast majority of civil servants strive to do their work well in the interest of society, this does not always guarantee success. For years, civil servants have faced growing challenges in their work. Professional expertise is increasingly undervalued, and their work seems to be obstructed by a tangle of rules and unwieldy structures. This article discusses the results of a survey on professionalism among civil servants. During the survey, civil servants were asked to reflect on various themes related to professional expertise. The authors subsequently discuss the results on (1) civil servant involvement and civil service values; (2) transparency and the interplay with politics; (3) factors that put professional expertise under pressure; and (4) civil servant socialisation through reflection.
Continuing powers of attorney - different legal rules, similar problems and solutions: What can the Netherlands learn from Belgium, England and Wales, Germany and Switzerland?

Continuing powers of attorney - different legal rules, similar problems and solutions: What can the Netherlands learn from Belgium, England and Wales, Germany and Switzerland?

The Dutch levenstestament allows adults in the Netherlands to make their own provisions for a future period of incapacity. Although this instrument is becoming increasingly popular, the current regulation and application of the levenstestament are not without problems. The levenstestament has been designed and conceptualised by the Dutch notariate within the framework of the existing law. This regulatory framework has not been designed with a setting of future incapacity in mind and compliance with international human rights norms and principles, such as Article 12 UNCRPD, is therefore not sufficiently guaranteed. Moreover, empirical research indicates that the application of the levenstestament, in practice, does not run smoothly in all cases. Across Europe there are countries where the possibility to make instruments, similar to the Dutch levenstestament, has already been in place for quite some time and where such instruments are regulated by law. This article presents the results of a comparative study of the legal regulation and practical application of enduring documents in four European jurisdictions (Belgium, Germany, England and Wales and Switzerland). Recommendation CM/Rec(2009)11 on Principles concerning continuing powers of attorney and advance directives for incapacity has been used as a frame of reference to look at the regulation on the form, content, entry into force, registration and/or certification of each enduring document as well as the appointment and role of attorneys, the preservation of legal capacity, conflicts of interests and supervision. The aim has also been to gain an impression of the law in action. Based on this information best practices have been identified which provide a solution to the problems with the regulation and application of the levenstestament in the Netherlands. The adoption of specific legislation incorporating these best practices in Book 1 of the Dutch Civil Code is recommended.
Tailoring tree ideotypes for multiple purposes in agroforestry
Authors: Thakur Sapna , Gautam Kamini , Chauhan Sanjeev Kumar , Sharma Jai Pal
Published: April 2023

Domestication of indigenous tree species in agroforestry can play a seminal role to mitigate and diversify existing farm ecosystems to adapt against the vagaries of climate change by imitating “Mother Nature” in its pristine state. In this direction, developing elite genotypes in agroforestry matching with the need of farmers and associated industry can fetch higher prices in the market, while ensuring economic and livelihood security of subsistence farmers. To apprehend and enhance the flow of benefits from tree domestication, direct selection of superior genotypes or the conventional breeding approach for desired gene ingression followed by clonal propagation needs to be prioritized for developing ideotypes for specific end use. Further, exploring and tapping the potential of molecular breeding by collaborative efforts of conventional tree breeders, molecular geneticists, and tree physiologists in developing desired ideotypes in agroforestry is highly desirable.

The study was conducted to determine the performance traits of grasscutters fed rice offal partially replaced with cassava peel meal. Sixteen (16) grower Grasscutters between the ages of 3-4 months were used for the feeding trial which lasted for 8 weeks (56 days). They were randomly assigned to the four diets in a Completely Randomized Design (CRD). The study had four (4) treatments and four replicates per treatment, with each animal serving as a replicate. The grasscutters were individually fed in their various experimental units. Parameters measured were performance traits (feed intake, growth rate and feed conversion ratio). Results shows that, the parameters measured; Average final body live weight (g), feed intake (g), daily weight gain (g), total weight gain (g) and feed conversion ratio were significantly (P<0.05) affected by the treatments. The results of this experiment generally showed that, rice offal can replace cassava peel meal up to 75% in the diets of grasscutter without any deleterious effect on the performance parameters but the best was on the replacement level of 25%, though it did not differ significantly (P>0.0) from 50% replacement level. On the basis of this present study, further study is suggested to affirm the 50% level. It is however, recommended that for optimum performance of grasscutter, rice offal could be included at 25%, considering the growth response and feed conversion ratio obtained from the present study.

Escola do campo: é possível falar de pertencimento e identidade do professor?
Authors: De Brito Barra Nova Taynah , Bezerra Machado Laêda
Published: April 2023

Este artigo, resultado de pesquisa mais abrangente, explora a função identitária e de pertencimento de professores ao representarem a escola do campo. Desenvolvemos um estudo qualitativo delineado como pesquisa de campo e contamos com a participação de 35 docentes de um munícipio no interior do estado de Pernambuco. Como instrumento de coleta, utilizamos a entrevista semiestruturada. A análise dos depoimentos revelou que as representações sociais de Escola do Campo dos professores são marcadas por um conteúdo simbólico que coloca em oposição o campo e a cidade, privilegiando-a em detrimento da cultura campesina. Coerente com as representações identifcadas, constatamos que o professor da Escola do Campo não revela identificação e/ou pertencimento com a realidade em que atua.  Esse não pertenciemnto está vinculado a rotatividade docente entre as escolas, modo de designação dos professores para essas instituições, contratação temporária e ainda por serem pessoas radicadas na cidade.  Em face dos resultados, sinalizamos a necessidade de reflexões e intervenções conjuntas por parte da gestão da educação municipal e dos povos do campo no sentido do cumprimento dos princípios legais e do ideário da Educação do Campo, para impedir que a Escola do Campo esteja a contribuir para inferiorizar a vida no campo.
A REVIEW ON BIOGAS PRODUCTION BASED ON CIRCULAR ECONOMY VIA CO-DIGESTION AND IMMOBILIZED SUBSTRATES
Authors: Tizon Zhane Ann , Avena Louise Grace , Bamba Jaira Neibel , Almendrala Michelle , Evidente Ralph Carlo
Published: April 2023

Organic waste has been discharged into the environment by various industries in a global society. Anaerobic digestion has proven its potential as a waste-to-energy (WTE) technology to produce biogas, which can also replace fossil fuels while accommodating these unwanted wastes. However, there are limitations to anaerobic digestion, such as poor biomethane yield due to limited supply and fluctuations in the composition of the substrates, and an inadequate C/N ratio in the feedstocks. This paper aims to discuss possible methods to overcome the constraints in the process, including co-digestion and immobilization of the substrates via a moving bed biofilm reactor. The parameters discussed in this literature were the following: (1) mode of operation; (2) temperature; (3) type of anaerobic digestion; (4) pre-treatment methods; (5) addition of nutrients; and (6) using plastic carriers. An in-depth study highlighting the role of industries in biogas production toward achieving circularity was also examined. Several studies have shown that co-digestion enhances biogas production more than mono-anaerobic digestion. Notably, using plastic carriers for immobilization can improve the metabolic process due to biofilm formation and serve as a niche for microbial culture. In addition, excessive nutrients can be highly toxic as they can inhibit bacterial activity in the methanogenic phase. This review also presented the techno-economic analysis of utilizing distillery wastewater and press mud from sugarcane industries to produce biogas. Therefore, the findings in this article allow the development of optimization designs for industrial scale based on circular economy to address various organic wastes.

Published: April 2023

Aim of the paper is to investigate the possibilities of applying the laser scanning method for overhead power transmission line monitoring in Latvia conditions. Today, in various sectors of the national economy, infrastructure monitoring takes an important place in the overall management of the system. It also plays an essential role in electric power, especially in maintaining overhead power transmission lines. Realizing the possibilities of digital development, the monitoring of power lines is more often performed by applying different remote sensing methods.
The study examined and compared several remote sensing methods used for power line monitoring, however, the laser scanning method from an unmanned aerial vehicle was recognized as more optimal in Latvia conditions.
Main conclusions are that for the application of remote sensing methods for overhead power line monitoring, it is initially necessary to find out the initial data about the power line. In the study included power line A-24 is mainly made up of I-type wooden supports. Also deforestation of the protective strip of the A-24 power line is required in several places, by removing the entire tree and/or bush, but in some cases, only the removal of a specific branch is sufficient.

It depends on the type of soil, the mechanical composition of the soil, the reaction of the acidity of the soil, the condition of the drainage system, the contour of the plot of land, the area, rockiness, terrain, and other factors.
Alternative energy sources are types of energy resources which the use causes no or only minor damage to the environment. Alternative energy resources are wind, water, solar radiation, biomass, geothermal energy or earth's energy potential, tidal processes, and water waves themselves. There are two options - how to use alternative energy resources. Direct use when fossil energy resources are completely replaced by alternatives and co-use when both fossil and alternative energy resources are used.
The main result of the research is to find out which would be the best places in orchards for alternative energy sources, such as solar panels, by evaluating the orchard land.
The main problematic of research is that many agricultural lands, including orchards, are left uncultivated and unused, but by weeding the land, it would be possible to determine the place where alternative energy sources can be better placed. Thus, farmers would get an additional benefit from their land - energy that can be used for their own.
In the research are included 4 orchards in different places in Latvia, with different soil composition, relief, composition of fruit trees and other factors.

Published: April 2023

Modern way of life using means of producing energy through renewables and forming a part of energy communities and citizen energy communities represent innovative resources. National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP), redefines an update of the objectives of both the Integrated National Energy and Climate Plane (INECP) and the long-term strategy for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, to reflect the changes that have occurred in the meantime in Europe. In detail, this article aims to ponder on the path taken by the Italian legislator, for energy communities and for selfconsumption. The transitional incentive rules (Article 42-bis of D.L. no 162/2019) issued primarily, will have to be revised with those outlined in Legislative Decree no 199/2021 to transpose the RED II Directive and in Legislative Decree no 210/2021 to transpose Directive 2019/944/EU. The method followed will be the preparation of a unique code. In this way, it will be possible to prepare suitable organizational and procedural models to start projects for the establishment of energy communities in a short time. The scope of this article looks into proposing new, useful, and necessary models to the simplify the authorizing mechanisms in order to construct and exercise the relative infrastructures. In the course of 2022, the first steps have already been taken, such as the Competition Law (L. no 118/2022), especially since the Italian Government will have to adopt by 27 August 2023, one or more legislative decrees to adapt to European law, Reorganize and simplify the regulation of renewable energy sources and reduce the regulatory burden on citizens and businesses.

For many years, oil derivatives, natural coal, and natural gas were used and still are, as primary energy supply due to their calorific potential, and their great availability on the planet. However, the utilization of these feedstocks causes greenhouse effects and helped in global warming, creating a general concern about this issue, and leading to the creation of urgent measures to overcome these problems. Hence, guidelines and public policies were granted to guarantee the reduction of emissions and increase the portion of renewable sources in the energy system production, namely the use of biofuels produced from waste biomass such as straw, stover, husks, and shells. Thermochemical processes can convert biomass sources into energy and/or fuels with a high heating value through high-temperature treatments. It comprises combustion, pyrolysis and gasification, which can be employed together or separated, depending on the need. The product of gasification is Synthesis Gas, comprehended mainly by hydrogen gas and carbon monoxide, which can be used posteriorly to produce electric energy. In this process, many parameters as temperature, pressure, gasifying agent, biomass composition, gasifier configuration, etc, influence the final composition of the gas. A challenge to show the feasibility of Syngas production is trying to know the conversion yields and its composition to evaluate the efficiency of the process. Simulating Software helps in this task, bringing real processes closer to virtual ones. Through UniSim Design software, this work main objective is the creation and implementation of a hybrid model (Kinetic and Equilibrium approaches) able to predict the lignocellulosic biomass gasification products for Downdraft and Updraft gasifiers, using different sources such as olive and corn agricultural wastes, and grape bagasse residue from wine culture.

Authors: Dedoussis Vassilis
Published: April 2023

The purpose of this research work is to provide an integrated techno-economic analysis and an optimal design of hybrid electricity power supply systems that incorporate autonomy and power supply stability with minimum cost. Three isolated Islands, namely, Lesvos, Karpathos and Astypalea, in the Aegean Sea, Greece, have been identified as the appropriate sites for the performance assessment of the off-grid hybrid power systems, due to the abundant renewable energy potential in the Islands, in conjunction with the rising fuel (diesel) prices under the influence of the current economic crisis. The relevant economic indices of the hybrid power systems have been optimized employing the Hybrid Optimization Model for Electric Renewable (HOMER) Simulation Software. Calculated results showed that hybrid wind/PV/diesel/battery power systems are competitive in terms of cost with diesel-only based power generation systems; the Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE) values are estimated at 0.153 -/kWh for the Lesvos Island, 0.161 -/kWh for the Karpathos Island, and 0.191 -/kWh for the Astypalea Island.

The alternative way to solve the greenhouse gas emission problems is carbon dioxide (CO2) capture and utilization. CO2 hydrogenation is one of the routes to obtain valuable chemicals and fuels such as methanol. The effect of indium (In) promoter on catalytic system Cu/Zn/SBA-15 has been studied. 1%In/Cu/ZnO/SBA15 and 6%In/Cu/ZnO/SBA15 catalysts have been synthesized by impregnation method and compared with Cu/Zn/SBA-15 catalyst (the content of Cu 30 wt.% and the content of Zn 1.4 wt.%). All catalysts have been characterized using XRD analysis, N2 adsorptiondesorption analysis, SEM-EDX and STEM analysis. CO2 hydrogenation was proceeded in a fixed-bed tubular micro-activity reactor at 20 bar 250 -C with H2 to CO2 molar ratio 4 to 1. The addition of In showed positive effect on the structural and textural properties of catalyst, but the activity in hydrogenation reaction showed opposite - the largest space-time yield of methanol was obtained with Cu/Zn/SBA-15 catalyst.
THE ENERGY COMMUNITY AS A TOOL FOR LOCAL DEVELOPMENT: NEW GOVERNANCE OF THE ENERGY MARKET
Authors: Lucente Maria Francesca
Published: April 2023

The energy community, as a new mode of citizen participation in the European renewable energy market, highlights the close connection between energy decentralisation, territorial development, and the crucial role of local authorities in doing so. In the context of territorial development and keeping within the ongoing decentralisation processes, participation and sustainability is particularly important. Also, the very idea of promoting community energy, leads to the affirmation of an innovative system of energy governance, based on horizontal subsidiarity identifying these actors as the protagonists of a new local development, favouring forms of selfgovernment of particularly fragile territories and the most marginal areas.
Since there is a common ground between the local authority and the energy community, this paper will also specifically highlight how local authorities are called upon to play an active role on the one hand, to pursue the public interest and the promotion of the common good. While on the other, the energy communities who have objectives and a juridical nature, makes them interests of the public authority. In fact, it can-t be argued that from the perspective of the energy community being a non-profit organization, it is aimed at promoting the protection of the economic interest of its members, as well as promoting a wider environmental and social benefit, which also generally extends to the entire local community.

The development and efficient use of renewable energy technologies is essential to sustain access to clean energy for all. In developing countries, it is necessary to improve the efficiency of biogas production to contribute to the decarbonization of the energy supply. This study aims to assess the quality of biogas produced from household biogas plants in rural areas of Cameroon. Through snowball sampling, data were collected from forty-five (45) functional biogas plants across the five agroecological zones of the country. Biogas was analyzed using the portable BIOGAS 5000 gas analyzer and compared for different designs of biogas plants and geographic locations. The results show on average that the floating drum biogas plant produced biogas with a higher methane content (57.90% v/v) than the floating drum design (55.30% v/v). The mean carbon dioxide content is 38.80% v/v for the fixed dome and 30.25% v/v for the floating drum biogas plant. Statistical tests indicate that the location of the biogas plant affected the methane content of the biogas produced. The feedstocks and design of biogas plants varied with the different agroecological zones of the country, and majorly accounted for the different qualities of biogas. The quality of biogas in Cameroon is within the reported range (average) of biogas quality in developing countries. However, it is still essential to promote the production of biogas with optimal quality in the country.

Air pollution is one of the most serious and intensively studied environmental problems of our time. Particulate matter (PM) air pollution has been shown to have adverse effects on human health, as well as the environment. The negative effects of pollutants can cause a wide range of health problems, from mild to serious illness to premature mortality. One of the sources of environmental pollution is biomass burning. During combustion, particles of different sizes and compositions are produced. Their formation depends on the characteristics of the fuel, the type of the combustion plant and the combustion conditions. Due to the complexity of the formation and growth of fine particles, there is a number of factors that influence the concentration, size and toxicity of fine particles.
The aim of this work is to investigate the possible ecotoxic effects of PM released from biomass combustion in a log feed stove. Based on the results obtained from the acute toxicity test on Daphnia magna, a toxic effect on the aquatic environment (aquatic system) has been demonstrated in most cases. The resulting EC50 for a 24-hour exposure is 37 % and 16 % for a 48-hour exposure. The toxicity is caused mainly by PM-bounded polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs).

Agricultural activities account for about a third of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Most of the GHG in the atmosphere are carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O). The aim of this study is to measure N2O isotopes in two differently managed agricultural soils. One soil is with organic farming and the other with conventional. Samples were collected in 32 experimental plots as well as a control plot. The samples are thus weighed in 3 l buckets, each 1.8 kg in total. Two samples were made from each plot so that they could have a different moisture regime. Moistening is designed for wet aerobic and wet anaerobic soil conditions. Information on changes in soil weight after soil wetting was also collected. Measurements for N2O isotopes were performed using a Picarro G5131-i instrument under laboratory conditions. The obtained data were collected and analysed. It was concluded that not all differences and interrelationships of the N2O isotope data obtained can be directly attributed to soil management. Differences between the effects of the microorganism population and the physical properties of the soil cannot be ruled out. The maximum value of ?15NSP value is 18.58 and the minimum value is -53.41. On the other hand, the maximum value of ?15Nbulk values is 26.76, and the minimum value is -56.97. In the conclusions, we get that both nitrification and denitrification dominate among cultures.
