Published: November 2023

Fruits are vital to consumer diets and are an important part of the U.S. agricultural industry. Two berries--strawberries and blueberries--are among the most important fruits. With more than $2 billion in annual farm gate sales and accounting for a 13-percent share of total production value of fruit, strawberries rank third for all fruit produced in the United States. Blueberries account for 5 percent of total fruit production value. This report examined changes in domestic production, consumption, prices, and trade for strawberries and blueberries over two decades. This study helps understand how the major berry markets evolved in a short time and examined opportunities and challenges these markets face.--
КОНКУРЕНТНІ ПЕРЕВАГИ ЯК ОДИН З КРИТЕРІЇВ ТРАНСФОРМАЦІЇ КОНКУРЕНТНОГО ПОТЕНЦІАЛУ СУБ’ЄКТІВ ТУРИСТИЧНОЇ ІНДУСТРІЇ
Authors: Єрко І. В.
Published: November 2023

У статті розглянуто конкурентні переваги як один із критеріїв трансформації конкурентного потенціалу суб’єктів туристичної індустрії. Проведено огляд літератури щодо дослідження критеріїв трансформації конкурентного потенціалу суб’єктів туристичної індустрії. Цілі статті полягають у дослідженні еволюції поглядів конкурентних переваг як одного з критеріїв трансформації конкурентного потенціалу суб’єктів туристичної індустрії. В результаті проведених досліджень зроблено висновок про панування підходу до розгляду конкурентних переваг туристичної індустрії із поділом їх на внутрішні та зовнішні. Охарактеризовано структурні складові потенційних можливостей (здатності) суб’єктів туристичної індустрії, а саме здатність ефективно використовувати потенціал території; здатність виробляти конкурентоспроможний продукт; здатність суб’єкта туристичної індустрії задовольняти потреби ринку. Виділено елементи туристичної інфраструктури: колективні засоби розміщення (готелі, кемпінги, оздоровчі заклади, санаторно-курортні заклади, мотелі, кемпінги, заклади відпочинку тощо); заклади громадського харчування (кафе, бари, ресторани); підприємства транспортно-комунікаційної мережі; підприємства торговельної мережі. Встановлено, що в основі трансформованого конкурентного потенціалу лежить принципово нова концепт-система туристичної індустрія, яка побудована на глибинному переході від одного стану розвитку туристичної індустрії до кардинально іншого, який характеризується сертифікацією та стандартизацією якості туристичних продуктів/послуг відповідно до національних та міжнародних стандартів; розробкою антикризових програм розвитку туристичної індустрії зважаючи на воєнний стан в країні та у повоєнний період; формуванням розвиненого конкурентного середовища суб’єктів туристичної індустрії; дотриманням кодексу правил у наданні туристичних послуг; розвитком нових видів туризму у повоєнний період; розвитком туристичної індустрії відповідно до потреб ринку (формування нового «пакету» туристичних послуг у повоєнний період); формуванням туристичної привабливості як «візитівки» дестинації.

Подолання труднощів та перепон можливе за умови широкої інформаційної підтримки з боку грантодавців, органів влади та фондів.
ISSUES OF INTEGRATION OF ESG CONCEPTS IN THE MARKETING ACTIVITIES OF ENTERPRISES
Authors:   Odesa National University of Technology, Lagodiyenko Oleg
Published: November 2023

The article examines the main issues of integrating the ESG concept into the marketing activities of enterprises. The main components of the ESG concept are highlighted: environmental, social and management aspects. Three main stages of integration of the ESG concept into the marketing activities of the enterprise are distinguished: audit of the values of the enterprise brand (values are the basis of any brand of the organization, they are especially important when defining and forming views on ESG, therefore it is important to create a message that will correspond to the values of the organization and cause authenticity and organicity); analysis of the company's mission (a mission that reflects ESG principles can contribute to the formation of commitment and increase loyalty to the organization) and setting strategic goals (development of a vision and marketing plan that will include elements of corporate social responsibility, as well as guidelines for the development of the organization's brand in order to achieve goals ESG). It is emphasized that when implementing ESG concepts in marketing activities within the framework of the concept of sustainable development, it is important to avoid situations where marketing actions exceed the actual efforts of the enterprise in the field of sustainable development, as this can lead to reputational risks known as greenwashing. It is proposed to use the following approaches when applying the ESG concept to the marketing activities of enterprises: the use of a holistic communication plan with unique messages and content; development of a PR strategy for interaction with the external environment to create a positive image of the enterprise in the field of ESG; effective storytelling with a focus on results; the importance of personnel; use of affiliate programs. It has been established that the main goal of introducing the ESG concept into the marketing activities of enterprises is the formation of a unique niche for the enterprise on the market and in the awareness of consumers, based on the creation and consolidation of a positive image of the enterprise or its product, based on important aspects of the ESG concept and the use of sustainable development marketing tools. This approach is especially relevant in the conditions of an unstable environment, fierce competition and information overload.

Authors:   Oles Honchar Dnipro National University, Kuriacha Natalia
Published: November 2023

The article examines the role of economic analysis of the enterprise in crisis conditions and suggests methods of increasing the effective operation of the enterprise. At the current stage of the development of the world economy, along with the strengthening of the phenomena of the global financial crisis, the current and future level of solvency of enterprises is a decisive factor for success in business. Entrepreneurs will be able to maintain their positions in the market only if they apply economic analysis to raise the expectations of their partners about the company's ability to fulfill its obligations to them. The key elements of this approach are maintaining the appropriate level of liquidity of the enterprise, preserving and improving the achieved performance indicators, ensuring the stability of income and their balance with the amount of expenses necessary for the normal functioning of the business, full and timely fulfillment of obligations. Effective business management is important for management, business founders, creditors, investors, government agencies and other business entities. The development of adverse phenomena in the global and national economy, especially as a result of restrictions introduced to fight the COVID-19 pandemic, military actions, showed how vulnerable domestic business is to such things as a sharp increase in the number of non-payments. and accounts payable, as well as a decrease in the turnover of receivables. All this contributes to the further worsening of the situation with a lack of financial resources among entrepreneurs and, as a result, the financial stability of business due to the lack of flexible and timely state approaches to the adaptation of tax legislation to the new crisis. Execution of production plans and provision of production needs with necessary resources directly depends on solvency. Therefore, solvency as a part of economic activity is aimed at ensuring planned income and spending of funds, compliance with accounting discipline, compliance with reasonable proportions of equity and loan capital, and its most effective use. Adapting to the risks, losses and circumstances of an escalating financial crisis has now become the norm. Businesses will fail and fail if they do not adapt to the changes sweeping the modern world. A company's ability to perform economic analysis affects how well it performs. In today's business environment, it is imperative for businesses to consider factors such as solvency, financial stability, and business activity.

Published: November 2023

Background: Staphylococcus aureus is the most commonly isolated bacterial pathogen in clinical and subclinical mastitis among cows. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of Staphylococcus aureus, including MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus), in cows with clinical and subclinical mastitis in Cumilla and Chattogram regions. Additionally, antimicrobial resistance patterns were identified.
Methods: A total of 429 milk samples were collected from different teats of 125 cows with clinical and subclinical mastitis across 15 farms. Standard bacteriological methods were applied to isolate and identify Staphylococcus aureus. Confirmation of Staphylococcus aureus was achieved through PCR for the presence of the nuc gene. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was conducted for 11 antimicrobials. Isolates showing resistance to cefoxitin and oxacillin underwent mecA gene screening to identify MRSA. Multivariable logistic regression models were used to identify risk factors associated with the presence of Staphylococcus aureus
Results: The study revealed that 13.54% (95% CI, 5.00–38.78%) of mastitis-infected cows tested positive for Staphylococcus aureus. Staphylococcus aureus isolates showed the highest resistance to penicillin, cloxacillin, and streptomycin (61.54%, 53.85%, and 53.85%, respectively), while manifesting the least resistance to ciprofloxacin, ceftriaxone, and sulfamethoxazole + trimethoprim (92%, 77%, and 77%, respectively), and gentamycin (69.23%). The prevalence of MRSA was 2.08% (95% CI, 1.55–38.34%).
Conclusion: This study represents the first report of MRSA in clinical and subclinical mastitis milk samples in Bangladesh. The findings emphasize the importance of ongoing monitoring of Staphylococcus aureus and MRSA in mastitis cases, considering their prevalence and patterns of antimicrobial resistance.

Staging, co-creating and reframing: a framework to map a community-based project
Authors: Morelli Nicola , Rinaudi Antonella Valentina , Gonzalez Laura Sanz , Melian Sofia Santos , Cirocka Olga , Smajlovic Halid
Published: November 2023

The extension of the design domain over the last decades has shifted the focus from products to processes and opened the design process to new actors. The most applied frameworks to map the design process include several phases and techniques that can support focusing on stakeholders, but they are represented as fundamentally linear processes. These models might be insufficient in the currently expanded design domain where the designer has the role of facilitator rather than expert, and recursivity is essential. Based on a case study, this paper proposes a new design process of staging, co-creating and reframing that happens recursively over time, and where framing is applied to redefine the problem based on each interaction with the stakeholders. In the case study, the framework is applied in a community building project in Copenhagen. The design process is explained as it ran twice through the framework, involving various stakeholders.
Between diving, breathing and splashing: metaphors as lenses to inquire public innovation initiatives
Authors: Werneck Caio , Brandalise Isabella
Published: November 2023

This paper focuses on metaphors as a methodology to design and reflect on design-led initiatives in the public sector. We are drawing on the experience of a capacity-building program developed in 2020 by Enap (National School of Public Administration) in partnership with teams of the Brazilian federal government, in which we conducted four projects through the metaphor of a collective dive. When analyzing the effects of the projects through conversations with participants, we expanded the metaphor, understanding the reflections as breathing, the project conditions as bubbles and currents, and the results as splashes. We see splashes as variable yet rarely acknowledged outcomes of programs that aim to simultaneously foster public innovation and collective learning. In this paper, we present an example of metaphors acting as boundary objects, adding granularity and nuance to the investigation of public innovation initiatives, and identifying their possible effects in relation to institutional logics and complex structures.

Authors: De Rosa Annalinda , Auricchio Valentina , Monna Vanessa
Published: November 2023

This paper introduces a scenario-building design methodology used in setting up a four-year Creative Europe Program project co-funded by the European Union. The project addresses an emerging field of action that aims to explore how small and remote places can benefit from the design of cultural and creative innovations within public spaces and in collaboration with local stakeholders. The paper describes how a common ground of scenarios has been designed for the development of project trajectories by defining future visions of action within small and remote places in Europe. This methodology is currently being applied and tested in ten pilot projects for the development of innovative creative solutions that address the specific needs of depopulated and relationally remote places considered to be depositories of material and immaterial culture that risks being undervalued, not consolidated, not handed down, and hence lost.

Authors: Sagar Priyank , Mahamuni Ravi , Agrawal Vasundhara , Darak Shirish , Jori Vijaya , Athavale Sandeep
Published: November 2023

In India, a significant number of children live with HIV. Due to a lack of awareness and social stigma, they do not make timely and responsible life decisions around intimacy and HIV status disclosure. In this paper, we share our experience of collaborating with Prayas Health Group (PHG), a prominent Non-Government Organization in Maharashtra (India) that is dedicated to enriching the lives of HIV patients. We used Service Design methods to create a solution that disseminates essential information and enables Adolescents Living with HIV (ALHIV) to make informed life decisions. The solution is an interactive story media where adolescents make decisions around in-design encounters that parallel with possible real-life encounters. As a result, they learn more about the subject and its implications, leading to improved real-life decision-making. This paper demonstrates the orchestration of human and technology touchpoints through multiple dynamic and choice-based scenarios.

Published: November 2023

Despite services being the largest component of the world economy, their importance may still not be recognized in regions such as Latin America. Therefore, this contribution presents exploratory research informed by the steps of a systematic literature review to collect, organise, and analyse educational offerings in Service Design, including graduate and specialisation levels, thematic areas, and specific courses offered under these programs in Latin America. The research results reveal that only eleven institutions ranked as the best in Latin America have Service Design offerings at the aforementioned levels. The findings indicate a lack of educational offerings in Service Design in Latin America.

Authors: Bertão Renato Antonio , Dac Thai Nguyen
Published: November 2023

In the last decade, service design has been promoted globally as an approach to creating efficient and meaningful experiences for customers, users, and citizens. However, in some regions, its practices are incipient. This study listened to design practitioners in Ho Chi Minh City, the largest Vietnamese metropolis, to unveil issues and opportunities for service design in the public sector, mainly healthcare services. The practitioners’ lenses helped to identify various HCMC citizens’ pain points to accessing public [healthcare] organizations. It also describes obstacles professionals face collaborating with government bodies to propose a change via service design. Although the local designers suggested potential approaches to improve the service offering in public and private sectors, they mostly lack opportunities to develop expertise in service design.
Amplifying the politics in Service Design

Witnessing the speed of growth and reach in demand for service design (SD) confronts us to ask what neoliberal forces are behind this acceleration? Are services, systems and structures really improving at this velocity, and what are we eroding and ignoring in turn? Pausing to ask about the direction and effect of change is critical to recognising SD’s implication in the status quo. This paper presents a methodology of noticing precedents that are quotidian and dystopian to show how dominant logics of SD are commodifying social practices of relating and organising. By slowing down to attend, listen and reflect, our approaches reveal existing rituals, values, nuances and commitments that teach us what an apolitical SD fails to see. We contribute a methodology for amplifying the political in SD, arguing for an ethical path of resistance and reorientation to support ethical, transformative, self-determined practices of design, education and research.

Authors: Xiong Chang , Guangliang Sang
Published: November 2023

This paper combs the development history and current situation of Design for Sustainability (DFS), and discusses the role of DFS in social transformation. The author studies the methods and tools of DFS and their achievements in different fields. The research shows that DFS can provide effective solutions in different fields. In the article, the author finds that the DFS policy will be different in different contexts, so the author puts forward the DFS method in the Chinese social context. Under the severe theme of climate change, the research is focused on the issue of carbon emissions. Using the DFS method in the context of Chinese society, the author takes the design of sustainable service system for kitchen waste recycling as a case, and tries to introduce the DFS method into the problem of reducing carbon emissions.

This paper assesses the value and limitations of a two-year community-engaged design thinking initiative across one county in the southeast United States. Initiative goals were to foster the design of more inclusive and holistic public health community-based services with underserved communities, institutionalize and socialize community-based design within a public health framework, and build organizational and individual capacities. Findings indicate the acquired design thinking processes transformed mental models, fostered new relationships, and built skills. Findings surfaced challenges related to grant and time constraints as well as organizational differences. Recommendations for service design practitioners and researchers seeking equity-centered, community-first practices are noted, including a commitment to emergent codesign practices, frequent and iterative prototyping, intentional cross-learning, and long-term transitionary resourcing and oversight.
Trust in the system and human autonomy in customer service chatbots
Authors: Gervazoni Ana , Quaresma Manuela
Published: November 2023

When Artificial Intelligence systems are not explained clearly to users, it can negatively affect their interactions and compromise their perceptions of a brand. When designing and developing conversational agents that deal with the client, it is crucial to consider that they are a service and follow human-centered Artificial Intelligence (HCAI) approaches. This study discusses two HCAI frameworks, relate them to trust in the system and human autonomy and define how these guidelines could be met in customer service chatbot. A survey was conducted to determine if users' views about their interactions with chatbots aligned with the recommended guidelines and how this affected their senses mentioned above. The analysis of the responses indicates that those human-centered Artificial Intelligence approaches still need to be prioritized or even met in customer service chatbot development. Users have reported unpleasant experiences with such services, leading to a decrease in their trust and autonomy.
How can we adapt Service Blueprint for future crises? Lessons learned from government services under COVID-19
Authors: Okamoto Shin , Mizuno Daijiro
Published: November 2023

COVID-19 crisis highlighted some wicked challenges in designing government services. While no standardized solution was found, government workers responded flexibly to uncertain situations. Service Blueprint (SB) is one of the useful design tools to understand, analyze, plan, and implement government services. However, it does not flexibly adapt to unsystematized information and unconventional services. Although SB needs adaptability for such uncertainty issues, there have been few studies on SB in governments under COVID-19. Therefore, this study explores how to adapt SB to government issues for future crises. A qualitative study of COVID-19 vaccination services in Hino Town, Japan found five flexible actions to deal with uncertainty. Based on them, we proposed three issues and the future direction of SB. This study extends the possibilities of service design tools that design disciplines can provide for governments and promote strategies for future crises.
Challenges of Service Design and User Experience Design in e-commerce after COVID-19 pandemic
Authors: Mangia Louise H R , Quaresma Manuela
Published: November 2023

Service Design (SD) and User Experience Design (UXD) share the focus on user experience which is required for a broader design perspective along the customer journey through different touchpoints. User experience has been intensified by e-commerces during COVID-19 pandemic to create rapid solutions for these digital consumers. The objective of this paper is to address the challenges of UXD and SD integration in e-commerces during pandemic. In this context, the literature has shown that SD and UXD are facing challenges, particularly related to integrated product-service solutions. This integrated perspective has promoted a better user experience in complex systems characterized by a multi-channel and multi-touchpoint customer’s journey. Thus, the pandemic has provoked a demanding user profile and design innovations which increasingly require the integration of SD and UXD. The contribution of this paper is to clarify about the user, the combined product and service innovations in e-commerce impacted by COVID-19 pandemic.

Faced with the challenges of extreme climatic events and increasing food demand, cowpea farming offers a viable option for generating grains and foliage while aiding soil preservation. This research aimed to evaluate the impact of diverse organic fertilizers and plastic mulches on cowpea yields and soil macrofauna. A completely randomized block design was employed, with a factorial arrangement of 3 × 3 + 1, encompassing plastic mulch (3.5 mm) color (white, black, and blue), organic fertilizer (compost of chicken manure-agricultural soil-dolomite, island guano, and cattle manure compost), as well as a control (without synthetic mulch and organic fertilization). The study evaluated soil temperature, plant height, area biomass, foliar macronutrients, yield, and soil macrofauna. The findings demonstrate that soil temperature varies based on the color of the plastic mulch. It was observed that using organic fertilizers resulted in significantly taller plants than the control group, with fresh and dry biomass weight also being significantly greater (p<0.05) for cattle manure compost compared to the other treatments. Furthermore, the use of plastic mulches had an impact on soil macrofauna. Cowpea displayed resistance to low soil fertility and fluctuations in soil temperature ranging from <35°C to >40°C. However, high precipitation during the fruiting and harvesting seasons significantly impacted grain yields. Organic fertilizers produced noticeable variances (p<0.05) in the aerial biomass weight of cowpeas, particularly cattle manure compost. The data, indicates that soil macrofauna, like the earthworm Pontoscolex corethrurus, improved the availability of N, P, and K to the plant during the reproductive stage. Plastic mulches and organic fertilizers were linked to an increase in earthworm weights, specifically P. corethrurus. Additionally, plastic mulches served as a physical barrier against ants and bugs.
