USE OF PRESENT PERFECT IN UNIVERSITY STUDENTS’ JOURNALS
Authors:   University of Osijek, Faculty of Education, MORITZ Ivana , TAMBOLAŠ Mihaela ,   Osnovna škola Ivane Brlić Mažuranić
Published: December 2024

English and Croatian differ on all linguistic levels, including the grammar system. Many structures existing in one language do not exist in the other and vice versa, occasionally resulting in inaccuracies in their use and confusion in translation. The pa­per presents the analysis conducted at the Faculty of Education, University of Osijek, on the journals written by Module C (En­glish language module) class-teacher students, enrolled in 2015, years of study 1–3. The main aim was to examine the students’ accurateness, and appropriateness of the use of Present Perfect since such a tense does not exist in Croatian and to attempt to find the reasons for such a situation. The instances of incorrect Present Perfect use from students’ journals were extracted, and in line with the primary aim, emphasis was put on what type of errors the students made. The sentences were also compared to their Croatian translations. The results illuminate the relations­hips between English and Croatian past and present time con­cepts, as well as the interference of Croatian and English past and present verb tenses for these groups of native Croatian lear­ners of English.
THE POSTMODERN WORLD OF DEJAN VUKOVIĆ
Authors:   Fakultet za crnogorski jezik i književnost ‒ Cetinje, NIKOLIĆ Andrijana
Published: December 2024

The Montenegrin writer of the newer generation, Dejan Vuković, is the author of the novels „Dokleanka“ - a book about Anna (2015) and „The Power of Silence“ (2021). While in his first novel he neutralizes the temporal boundaries of the present and ancient, fictitious world, in his second novel „The Power of Silence“ he skillfully opens the historical and cultural deposits of Brskov from the end of the 19th century to the beginning of the 19th of the 20th century with paratextual clips and motifs. The text of the novel „Dokleanka“ is subjected to the poetics of duality in the historiographical context and the literary „escape“ to the ancient walls of ancient Duklja, recontextualizing the text, building the wealth of fluid discourse that structured the narrative of fantasy reality. A proven postmodernist, in his second novel „The Power of Silence“ announces the opposition of „big“ history to the history of a small and ordinary man who lives and creates in silence. With his novels, he imported different cities and worlds, revived myth and history, upgraded the faction with fiction on the remains of the ruins of old Duklja and the border of Vuk Maniti.
METATEXTUAL STRATEGIES IN PAUL AUSTER’S PROSE
Authors:   Internacionalni univerzitet u Novom Pazaru Departman za filološke nauke, LUKAČ-ZORANIĆ Amela , VASIĆ-RAKOČEVIĆ Branislava
Published: December 2024

The text discusses the issue of metatextuality in Paul Auster’s novels. It starts from the premise that this concept, although known in literary theory for a long time and correlated with self-reference, acquires a specific functionality in postmodernism. Since postmodernist writers have a heightened literary consciousness and problematize the act of creation (their own), the role of metatext intensifies, suggesting precisely all the referential poetic coordinates of postmodern literature. This is indeed the case with the prose of Paul Auster, whose representative sample serves as evidence for the initial premise.

CULTURAL HERITAGE IN THE FUNCTION OF TOURISM DEVELOPMENT : A CASE STUDY
Authors:   Haxhi Zeka University – Peja, ŠKRIJELJ Hajrija
Published: December 2024

Culture is a common characteristic of all peoples and nations, and according to the anthropological point of view, it is the basis of the development of states in the context of civilization and progress. People are given to use culture, but at the same time, culture and its entire heritage must be continuously preserved and nurtured. Although it seems that the culture of ethnic groups is part of the dynamics of every society, in Kosovo the politics of cultural management, the long-standing gap between regulatory investments and the representation of minority heritage raise questions about credible solutions that should be implemented, so that the entire cultural wealth of Kosovo becomes a resource not only for local but also for regional and development. Peja is special not only because of its spatial characteristics but also because of its traditions and the way of life of its citizens. Urban city parks, squares, beaches, markets, waterfront, forum, organ and salutation to the sun, cultural heritage, and intangible herita­ge, are all part of the identity of the city of Peja, which precisely with all its natural beauty and numerous cultural and historical monuments has all the prerequisites to become a recognizable center on the territory of the Republic of Kosovo. On the other hand, this potential has not yet been used sufficiently. It was im­portant to determine whether Peja has the predispositions for further development of the tourist offer, and how much work is being done on it. Two groups, visitors and residents, were exa­mined, and how satisfied they were with the offer and choice of tourist services in the city of Peca. The paper evaluated the quality of tourist services, the influence of promotional activities on the arrival of tourists in the city of Peć, and the contribution of event activities and new tourist products in creating a reco­gnizable tourist destination brand. The satisfaction of tourists in a tourist destination is an important factor for the development of the destination itself, especially because decisions are made to improve the tourist offer of the destination itself based on the (dis)satisfaction of the guests.
THE “CHOICE BLINDNESS” EFFECT: CHALLENGING INTROSPECTION, INTENTION AND CHOICE
Authors:   The Academy of Applied Preschool Teaching and Health Studies - Applied Preschool Teaching Aleksinac section, Mladenović Željko
Published: December 2024

The “Choice blindness” is the term Johansson et al. introduced in order to
name an experimental situation in which participants do not notice that their intended
choice is mismatched with the alternative they did not choose; nevertheless, they
introspectively derived and offered reasons for their manipulated choices. The “Choice
blindness” effect has several important features, such as not noticing the replacement
of the selected object, confabulation and change in preference, which should be
addressed in an attempt to explain it. The established effect proved to be robust and
was replicated in numerous studies in which objections to previous studies and offered
explanations were addressed. In order to explain the effect, the researchers referred to
insufficient introspection and the blindness of the decision processes, as well as the
underestimation of the influence of environmental and situational factors. At present
there is no explanation or consensus about mechanisms behind the observed effect.
The research method introduced by Johansson et al. represents a valuable tool for
exploring the field of psychology of perception and cognitive psychology, and even
clinical psychology and attitude research. However, there are still a lot of questions
about the “Choice blindness” which should be answered.
THE EFFECT OF AFFECTIVE PRIMING THROUGH DYNAMIC STIMULI ON RECOGNIZING EMOTIONS
Authors:   University in Banja Luka, Faculty of Philosophy, Vrhovac Vesna , Borojević Svetlana ,   University in Banja Luka, Faculty of Philosophy
Published: December 2024

Emotions are important for everyday communication and it is very useful
to recognize them accurately as well as to regulate them. Researching how certain
emotional states can be evoked has significant practical implications for everyday life,
but also for the work of professionals. Studies of affective priming provide a useful
methodological framework for investigating this issue. The aim of this study is to
explore affective priming with dynamic stimuli (video material), and the contribution
of the age and gender variables to this process. The study involved a total of 307
students from the University of Banja Luka, consisting of 236 female and 71 male
participants aged between 19-25 years (M=22.6, SD=1.4). The research was conducted
online with special software created for this purpose. Three factors were varied:
congruence of prime and target (congruent, incongruent and absence of prime), gender
(male and female) and age (late adolescence and early adulthood). The photos from
KDEF (Karolinska Directed Emotional Faces) base were used for the assessment of
the emotional facial expressions, and two short video cuts from the Filmsammlung
Johannes Hewig´s collection called “A revised film set for the induction of basic
emotions” were shown as primes. The effect of affective priming was analyzed
separately for two emotions - happiness and sadness as targets. The results show a
priming effect on recognition of happiness in relation to age. Incongruency between
prime and target leads to the inhibition of happiness recognition for younger students.
Affective priming was not found in experimental situations where emotion of sadness
was targeted.

PUPPET THEATRE ADAPTATIONS OF HANS CHRISTIAN ANDERSEN’S STORIES
Authors:   University of Rijeka, Faculty of Teacher Education: Rijeka, HR, Verdonik Maja S.
Published: December 2024

This paper analyses contemporary puppet theatre adaptations of selected Hans Christian Andersen stories. It aims to explore the connection between Andersen’s stories and the puppet theatre, as well as the characteristics of some of these shows to answer the question: what makes the analyzed stories work on the puppet stage? Results of the analysis have shown the connection between the selected stories and puppet theatre in terms of bringing the inanimate to life as a characteristic inherent to puppet theatre, and in the shift to the unreal as a key feature of fantasy stories, which in puppet shows is achieved through the animation of puppets or the interplay between actors and puppets. The anthropomorphization of animal characters in Andersen’s stories is realized by animating the dolls, which aligns with the fact that the magical aspects of these stories can be brought to life with the expressive tools of puppet theatre.

Authors: Saputra Deni Rahman , Triwibowo Anton , Batubara Haris Fadhillah
Published: December 2024

The mining industry has a major influence on the increase in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in Indonesia, especially deforestation activities and the use of fossil energy. This makes it important to study the level of greenhouse gas emissions of a mining company so that it can determine the mitigation of reducing GHG emissions released. The research aims to assess the greenhouse gas emission levels in the coal mining services sector at PT Antareja Mahada Makmur. The study provides valuable insights into the environmental impact of coal mining activities, which is crucial for informing sustainable practices and regulatory compliance. The results of this analysis show a significant increase in total A2B and stationary sources (generators) from October 2023 to September 2024 as a source of immobile emissions. The analysis shows that carbon dioxide (CO2) gas is the most dominant component in total emissions from mobile sources (A2B). The findings of this study highlight the importance of mitigation efforts, such as improving energy efficiency and the integration of renewable energy sources, in reducing emissions in the mining sector. This research could help identify gaps and propose improvements to support companies in their mitigation efforts.

A REMARKABLE CONTRIBUTION TO SOFT INT-GROUP THEORY VIA A COMPREHENSIVE VIEW OF SOFT COSETS
Authors: SEZGİN ASLIHAN , İLGİN ALEYNA , KOCAKAYA FATIMA ZEHRA , BAŞ ZEYNEP HARE , ONUR BEYZA , ÇITAK FİLİZ
Published: December 2024

This paper aims to expand soft int-group theory by analyzing its many aspects and structural properties regarding soft cosets and soft quotient groups, which are crucial concepts of the theory. All the characteristics of soft cosets are given in accordance with the properties of classical cosets in abstract algebra, and many interesting analogous results are obtained. It is proved that if an element is in the e-set, then its soft left and right cosets are the same and equal to the soft set itself. The main and remarkable contribution of this paper to the theory is that the relation between the e-set and the normality of the soft int-group is obtained, and it is proved that if the e-set has an element other than the identity of the group, then the soft int-group is normal. Based on this significant fact, it is revealed that if the soft set is not normal, then there do not exist any equal soft left (right) cosets. These relations are quite striking for the theory, since based on these facts, we show that the normality condition on the soft int-group is unnecessary in many definitions, propositions, and theorems given before. Furthermore, we come up with a fascinating result, unlike classical algebra that to construct a soft quotient group and to hold the fundamental homomorphism theorem, the soft int-group needs not to be normal. It is also demonstrated that the soft int-group is an abelian (normal) int-group if and only if the soft quotient group of G relative to the soft group is abelian. Finally, the torsion soft-int group and 𝑝-soft int-group are introduced, and we show that soft int-group f_G is a torsion soft-int group (𝑝-soft int-group) if and only if the soft quotient group G⁄f_G is a torsion (𝑝-group), respectively.

Published: December 2024

In recent years, active ingredients derived from natural sources have garnered significant attention in alternative medical therapies. This study examines the therapeutic potential and pharmaceutical relevance of Rosa canina L., focusing on a comparative analysis of phytoconstituents in fresh fruits, flowers, and commercial fruit tea to inform future antioxidant-based pharmaceutical applications. Hydroalcoholic macerates (60% and 96%) were prepared from these plant materials, and spectrophotometric methods were employed to identify the compounds contributing to antioxidant properties, focusing on polyphenols and flavonoids. The total polyphenol and flavonoid content were quantified using the Folin-Ciocalteu reagent and the Romanian Pharmacopoeia method, respectively. Antioxidant activity was assessed through DPPH radical scavenging and FRAP assays. The results demonstrated that 60% of ethanolic macerates derived from fruits exhibited the highest antioxidant activity and ferric-reducing activity. Four formulations of dermato-cosmetic hydrogels were prepared with the macerates that showed the highest antioxidant potential. The physicochemical properties of the hydrogels, such as viscosity, pH, and spreadability, were analyzed to confirm their stability and appropriateness for dermato-cosmetic use. Antioxidant activity was assessed using DPPH assays, revealing a strong activity for free radical scavenging. The findings revealed a strong correlation between antioxidant activity and polyphenol content, affirming Rosa canina's potential for use in pharmaceutical formulations.

The corporate culture of SOEs is known as core values that are set as the identity and glue of work culture supported by continuous performance improvement. Core values are principles and values that become the foundation and reference of a company. Core values in SOEs are known as "AKHLAK" which is also a moral guideline in facing various shocks in the VUCA era (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, Ambiguity). With the theory of maqashid shari'ah is an important concept in the discussion of Islam to realize the benefit of mankind. However, it contributes to making the concept of maqashid shari'ah more applicable and functional for Islamic law in dealing with affairs in the contemporary context, especially in muamalah and worship. This is very important for companies because various problems must be faced by SOEs, namely moral values that are not upheld, so with "AKHLAK" as a moral value that will bring SOEs and individuals in them to progress and contribute to the country

Analysis of the Implementation of Article 22 Paragraph (2) of ATR/BPN Ministerial Regulation Number 6 of 2018 on Complete Systematic Land Registration (PTSL): Limitations and Challenges in Recording Proof of Community Land Ownership
Authors: Taufiq Fida Nabilah , Masykur M. Hamidi , Supriyadi
Published: December 2024

The problem of incomplete or non-existent land ownership proof among the community has arisen in one of the villages in Sidoarjo Regency. This is rooted in the registration of land through the Comprehensive Systematic Land Registration (PTSL) program by one of the heirs named "A". After the issuance of the certificate, other heirs raised objections regarding land ownership, leading to an unresolved dispute until now. This situation is not in line with the intended purpose of land registration, given that Indonesia has comprehensive regulations governing land matters, including dispute resolution. The persistent delay in resolving the dispute raises questions about whether there is a regulatory mismatch or implementation issues within the PTSL program. This research adopts a socio-legal research method with a socio-legal sociology approach and legal data collection techniques such as interviews, observations, and document analysis conducted at the Sidoarjo Regency ATR/BPN Office. The population includes employees of the ATR/BPN Office in Sidoarjo Regency, with samples selected purposively from the General and Personnel Substantive Group Coordinator or the PTSL Program committee or appointed officials. The research findings will be analyzed using descriptive legal data analysis. The results indicate that the implementation of the PTSL program aligns with existing regulations, despite encountering some obstacles. The identified challenges include disputes related to data forgery, conflicts among heirs, discrepancies in land measurement processes, and land occupation by individuals other than the direct owners. The ATR/BPN Office in Sidoarjo addresses these challenges by mediating disputes before PTSL registration to reach agreements. In cases where no consensus is reached, the registration process is postponed until a resolution is achieved between the parties. Additionally, in post-PTSL certificate issuance disputes, mediation is employed, and if no agreement is reached, the category may be downgraded from K2 to K1, or legal proceedings may be pursued to determine rightful ownership of the land parcel.
FATIMA MERNISSI’S THOUGHTS ABOUT WOMEN’S LEADERSHIP
Authors: Sadiyah Fatichatul , Luthfiyanto Muhammad , Bighas Khadijah A , Firmansyah
Published: December 2024

In this paper, the author will discuss the thoughts of Fatima Mernissi in criticizing the hadis on women’s leadership. From the results of her investigation, Mernissi criticized Abu Bakrah in relation to the narration of the hadis as follows: 1) Abu Bakrah is difficult to trace his lineage because he was originally a slave who was freed when he joined the Muslims. 2) Abu Bakrah was sentenced to qazaf, because he could not prove the charge of zina against al-Mughirah ibn Syu’bah at the time of the Caliph Umar bin al-Khattab. 3) Looking at the historical context, why did Abu Bakrah remember this hadis (which, if correctly uttered by the Prophet, means that he has passed a period of approximately 25 years) after knowing Aisha had lost the war, while the initial stance he took was neutral. Based on this rule, Mernissi concluded that Abu Bakrah was a narrator who was rejected, and his hadis was not acceptable. Based on the foregoing reasons, Mernissi concluded that even though the hadis was contained in Sahih al-Bukhari, it was still debated by the jurists. According to her, this hadis is used as an argument to displace women in the decision-making process.

Authors: Sarah Rizki Ramadhan  , Masykur Hamidi , Sigit Nur Rachmat
Published: December 2024

Covernote is a certificate from a notary that becomes an important requirement in the disbursement of murabahah financing, especially when the customer has not met the complete requirements, such as the unfinished collateral checking process or the status of the land that still does not have a certificate of ownership. Although it does not have legal force, the Covernote serves as a guideline for Islamic banks in disbursing financing, with the notary responsible for completing the collateral checking process until the issuance of the Deed of Granting Mortgage. Although notaries have the authority to make authentic deeds or deeds under hand, Covernote is not included. This research is important to understand the law related to notary Covernote, the urgency of legal protection for banks in the case of notaries who do not fulfill their obligations, and analysis of legal remedies that can be taken by banks against non-performing loans due to notary negligence in Covernote. The research method used is empirical juridical research, which is a research conducted on the real situation that occurs in the application of legal practice in society and analyzes the actions of legal institutions related to these problems which aim to provide legal certainty. The conclusion obtained is that the quality of financing is the main indicator in assessing the financial health and risks faced by an Islamic bank. The category of financing, ranging from current to non-performing, illustrates the customer's ability to pay obligations in accordance with the agreed contract. Effective monitoring and management of financing is necessary to identify and address risks in a timely manner, minimize financial risks, and maintain the continuity of bank operations

Published: December 2024

Bidara (Ziziphus mauritiana Lam.) or Indian jujube or ber is one Indonesian endemic plant which widely used as a traditional remedy in Indonesia and other Asian countries. Bidara leaves are commonly used as a remedy for diarrhea, liver diseases, and diabetes. This study aims to determine the effect of ethanol extract of bidara leaves (Z. mauritiana Lam.) on alloxan-induced male Wistar strain rat’s (Rattus norvegicus) liver. This is an experimental study with a randomized pretest-posttest with a control group design. This study involved 24 male Wistar strain rats (R. norvegicus) which were divided into 6 separate groups induced with alloxan and each group received a different intervention accordingly. Data in this study shows that ethanol extract of bidara leaves contains alkaloids, saponins, flavonoids, and glycoside compounds. This study also found that ethanol extract of bidara leaves at doses as low as 150 mg/kgBW managed to decrease the blood glucose, SGOT, and SGPT levels better than negative control and as effective as metformin. Escalation of SOD activity was also found to be directly proportional to dose increase, however, the highest concentration of MDA was also found in the highest dose of ethanol extract of bidara leaves.

Farmer motivation is critical in increasing the productivity and sustainability of livestock businesses, especially in rural areas. This study aims to identify the level of farmer motivation in Mario Village, Kuro District, and Sidenreng Rappang Regency and analyze the factors that influence it. With a quantitative descriptive approach and multiple regression analysis using SPSS 16.0 software, this study provides an in-depth description of the relationship between age, education, and livestock farming experience factors on farmer motivation locally. This study aimed to determine the level of farmer motivation in Mario Village, Kulo District, Sidenreng Rappang Regency, and the factors that influence this motivation. The method used was quantitative descriptive, and the sample consisted of 63 respondents. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using multiple regression using SPSS 16.0 software. The results showed that two main factors significantly influenced farmer motivation: age and livestock farming experience. This can be seen from the regression coefficient of age (X1) reaching 0.500 and farming experience (X2) reaching 0.320. These values show a significant value of less than 0.05, indicating that they significantly influence farmer motivation

Agricultural businesses, including beef cattle farming, are prone to risks and losses. Partnerships provide many benefits and reduce the risk of business losses through market assurance, added value, and an increased portfolio of productive assets. The Bali cattle cluster is a place of centralized development in cattle breeding to enhance high competitiveness. The study aims to build a partnership model for managing the risk of the Bali cattle business in the Bali cattle purification cluster. The research used a survey method with a descriptive qualitative approach. The results showed two partnership models in the research location: the partnership of the livestock company and the traditional partnership. Business cooperation is established in partnership with farmers by dividing profits among 50% farmers, 45% companies, and 5% farmer-livestock groups. As for traditional partnerships, farmers and owners get 50% of the profits each. So, the two business models of beef cattle farming have advantages and disadvantages. The partnership system has a good impact on farmers in managing their business risks because farmers feel helped by these two partnerships in the research location, especially for farmers who still have minimal business capital in the Bali cattle business. Future research will be maximized if it increases the number of respondents and the size of the research area to detect agricultural partnership patterns in rural areas.

Introduction. Cryopreservation allows for long-term conservation of biomaterials. The insufficient efficacy of available cryopreservatives and the toxicity of a number of cryocomponents renders the search for low-toxic biocompatible cryoagents highly relevant.

Objective. Assessment of morphological and functional features of blood cells in a lactulose-based cryopreservative for storing whole blood at moderately low temperatures (minus 20 °C) using leukocyte, platelet, and erythrocytes parameters.

Materials and methods. The study was conducted using peripheral venous blood of 30 female donor volunteers aged 18–23 years. Samples of peripheral venous blood were stabilized by 3-substituted potassium salt of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid. The cryopreservative was prepared using a 0.9 % sodium chloride solution to maintain the isotonic concentration. Glycerin and dimethyl sulfoxide were used as cell-penetrating cryoprotectors; lactulose disaccharide was used as a non-penetrating cryoprotector. The composition of the obtained cryopreservative was optimized by varying the mass fractions of the components. Clinical blood tests were performed using a Gemalite 1270 automatic hematology analyzer. A computer cytomorphometric study was performed in the MEKOS-C2 hardware and software environment.

Results. The conservation of blood samples using the developed cryopreservative for 24 h at a temperature of minus 20 °C increased the percentage of preserved leukocytes, erythrocytes, and platelets to 88.6±0.41 %, 92.1±0.31 %, and 91.4±0.52 %, respectively. The blood cells retained their physiological activity after thawing compared to blood samples stored at room temperature.

Conclusions. The morphological and functional safety of blood cells in samples stored with the developed cryopreservative was revealed after 24 h of storage at minus 20°C. The advantages of this cryopreservative include the possibility of its long-term storage without loss of cryoprotective properties, stabilizing blood cells to the effects of sub-moderate low temperatures of minus 20 °C, the use of non-toxic lactulose disaccharide that does not penetrate into the cell. The developed cryopreservative proves effective in freezing conditions at minus 20 °C, being affordable in terms of cost (all components are manufactured in the Russian Federation). Further research in this direction will contribute to the development of safer blood donation approaches and reducing complications during transfusion of blood components.

Introduction. Klebsiella pneumoniae poses a serious threat to global healthcare due to the high proportion of multidrug-resistant isolates. Moreover, the formation of biofilms by bacteria significantly complicates the treatment of infections.

Objective. To evaluate the effectiveness of the individual and combined action of antibiotics and bacteriophages or polysaccharide depolymerase on biofilms of a clinically significant strain K. pneumoniae.

Materials and methods. The work used the K. pneumoniae strain with multidrug resistance (9faiz), 4 antibiotics of various classes (gentamicin, levofloxacin, meropenem and chloramphenicol), 3 bacteriophages of various genera (Dlv622, Seu621 and FRZ284), and 1 polysaccharide depolymerase (Dep622). Experiments were carried out on the formed biofilms by treating 24-hour K. pneumoniae films with antimicrobial agents individually or in combinations. The ability of the strain to form biofilms was evaluated by staining with crystalline violet. The comparison between the average optical density values was carried out using a t-test and was considered significant at p ≤ 0.05.

Results. The individual use of antibiotics peak concentrations (Cmax) or depolymerase concentration of 100 MED (minimum effective dose — MED) did not lead to a significant decrease in biofilm biomass, whereas bacteriophages in a titer of 5×109  PFU/mL (plaque-forming unit per mL) statistically significantly reduced its biomass by 27–31% (p < 0.05) Most combinations of phages and antibiotics did not lead to a significant increase in the efficiency of biofilm destruction. Only the combination of phage FRZ284 with gentamicin statistically significantly showed an additional decrease in biofilm biomass by 27% (p < 0.05).

Conclusions. The results show the need for individual selection of antimicrobial combinations to combat K. pneumoniae biofilms due to the possible effect of synergy and antagonism effects on the outcome of therapy.

La presente investigación se planteó el objetivo de caracterizar los aspectos socioeconómicos y productivos de los sistemas horto-frutícolas en las comunidades de Pachinché, Sasay y Estancia Vieja, pertenecientes a la parroquia Colón del cantón Portoviejo. Para ello se realizó una encuesta a través del formulario a 80 productores horto-frutícolas de las comunidades de Estancia Vieja (26), Pachinche (26) y Sasay (28), Se aplicó la prueba no paramétrica utilizando el método estadístico chi cuadrado para identificar diferencias entre variables. Los resultados demuestra que 30 productores (38%) tienen  un nivel de educación primaria, 48 (60%) tienen educación secundaria y 2  (3%) tienen educación superior, el valor p asociado a esta distribución es 0.804, lo que indica que no hay  diferencia estadísticamente significativa en el nivel de instrucción  entre las diferentes localidades. En la preferencia de siembra, el plátano es la hortaliza más sembrada, representando el 25% del total de respuestas. Le sigue la yuca con el 20%, el pimiento con el 18%, y el ají con el 19%. Esto sugiere una clara preferencia por estas hortalizas en las tres comunidades. La caracterización productiva de los cultivos horto-frutícolas del cantón Colón muestra que los productores, en su mayoría, trabajan en pequeñas parcelas de 0.5 a 1 hectáreas.
