Published: July 2024

В статье представлены результаты проведенного анализа влияния удельного веса затрат на оплату труда с отчислениями в общих затратах на основное производство продукции растениеводства в сельскохозяйственных организациях. Результаты исследований показали, что не во всех случаях повышение заработной платы работникам растениеводства способствует снижению рентабельности производства продукцию. Дана оценка дифференциации заработной платы трактористов-машинистов по природно-климатическим микрозонам. На примере сельскохозяйственных организаций Саратовской области обоснован нормативный удельный вес затрат на оплату труда с отчислениями в структуре основных затрат на основное производство в отраслях растениеводства. Изложен авторский алгоритм планирования расходов на оплату труда с учетом данного норматива.

The article presents the results of an analysis of the influence of the share of labor costs with deductions in the total costs of the main production of crop products in agricultural organizations. Research results have shown that not in all cases, increasing wages for crop production workers contributes to reducing the profitability of production. An assessment is made of the differentiation of wages of tractor drivers by natural and climatic microzones. Using the example of agricultural organizations in the Saratov region, the standard share of labor costs with deductions in the structure of the main costs of main production in crop production sectors is substantiated.

Published: July 2024

Деятельность предприятий нефтегазового комплекса зависит как от структурно-организационной модели бизнес-процессов, встроенных во внутрифирменной сфере предприятия, так и от влияния внешних факторов, связанных с влиянием стейкхолдеров ближнего и дальнего окружения предприятия. Предприятия нефтегазового комплекса России функционируют в стратегическом сегменте экономики, связанной с ресурсными запасами, условно не возобновляемыми ресурсами и входят в состав энергетического комплекса страны, от которого зависит жизнеобеспечение населения и бизнеса. Функционирование нефтегазового комплекса следует рассматривать как систему в неблагоприятных условиях, что требует разработки моделей для обеспечения устойчивого развития. Понятие устойчивости деятельности предприятий связано с сохранением стабильного состояния системы под воздействием внутренних и внешних воздействий. Создание системы устойчивого развития следует рассматривать как проектную деятельность, основанную на планомерной трансформации бизнес-процессов и создание сбалансированной равновесной экономической системы. Построение экспериментальной структурно-организационной системы предприятия нефтегазоконденсатного комплекса позволяет на основе модели получить варианты благоприятных и неблагоприятных исходов и предусмотреть проектные решения, которые позволят обеспечить устойчивость функционирования предприятия.

The activities of oil and gas enterprises depend both on the structural and organizational model of business processes embedded in the intra-corporate sphere of the enterprise, and on the influence of external factors related to the influence of stakeholders in the near and far environment of the enterprise. The enterprises of the Russian oil and gas complex operate in a strategic segment of the economy associated with resource reserves, conditionally non-renewable resources and are part of the country's energy complex, on which the livelihood of the population and business depends. The functioning of the oil and gas complex should be considered as a system in unfavorable conditions, which requires the development of models to ensure sustainable development. The concept of sustainability of enterprises is associated with maintaining a stable state of the system under the influence of internal and external influences. The creation of a sustainable development system should be considered as a project activity based on the systematic transformation of business processes and the creation of a balanced equilibrium economic system. The construction of an experimental structural and organizational system of an oil and gas condensate complex enterprise allows, based on the model, to obtain options for favorable and unfavorable outcomes and to provide design solutions that will ensure the sustainability of the enterprise's operation.
RANCANG BANGUN REPEATER UNTUK KOMUNIKASI LORA
Authors: Azwar Hamid
Published: July 2024

Tidak semua situasi memungkinkan untuk melakukan pengamatan langsung terhadap objek yang diamati. Hal ini disebabkan oleh beberapa faktor, seperti jarak yang terlalu jauh atau medan yang terlalu berbahaya untuk dijangkau, serta kondisi cuaca dan suhu yang tidak mendukung. Oleh karena itu, pengamatan atau pengukuran tidak selalu dapat dilakukan secara langsung dan berkelanjutan di lokasi yang sulit dijangkau tersebut. Untuk mengatasi kendala tersebut, digunakan metode pengukuran jarak jauh yang biasa disebut telemetri. Namun, telemetri membutuhkan jangkauan pengiriman yang memadai. Salah satu metode pengiriman jarak jauh yang efisien adalah menggunakan teknologi Long Range (LoRa) yang memiliki konsumsi daya yang sangat rendah. Untuk memperluas jangkauan pengiriman, diperlukan penggunaan repeater LoRa yang dapat meneruskan data dari Node ke Gateway. Dalam penelitian ini, dilakukan pembuatan repeater untuk komunikasi LoRa menggunakan modul LoRa TTGO ESP32. Hasil dari pembuatan repeater ini menunjukkan kemampuan untuk meneruskan data sensor dari Node ke Gateway dengan jangkauan hingga 2,8 km, dengan delay pengiriman data sensor sebesar 0,7 detik.

The Effect of Cabbage Waste Concentration and Fermentation Time on The Decaffeination of Arabica Coffee
Authors: Hariyadi Tri
Published: July 2024

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the concentration of cabbage waste and fermentation time on the caffeine content reduction of Arabica coffee from Pangalengan. Decaffeination is carried out using a wet fermentation method using protease enzyme activity produced by lactic acid bacteria from cabbage waste. Protease enzymes can break down the slime layer on coffee beans so that caffeine is decomposed through the esterification process to become chlorogenic acid. Fermentation was carried out anaerobically in a fermenter with a capacity of ± 2L with a fermentation time of 72 hours and sampling every 6 hours. The concentration of cabbage waste ranged from 10-80% (w/w). Arabica coffee beans were tested for caffeine content (%) using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer. According to the study's findings, the caffeine level decreases as the concentration of cabbage waste increases. Meanwhile, the caffeine level decreases as fermentation time increases. The addition of 80% concentration of cabbage waste with 48 hours of fermentation time produced the optimum results for the Arabica coffee decaffeination process. This method achieved a decaffeination efficiency of more of 96% and met the quality standards outlined in SNI 01-3542-2004.
Performance of Cellulose and Gum-based Oleogelators to Form Oleogels in Different Oil Systems
Authors: Trirahayu Dhyna Analyes , Abidin Akhmad Zainal , Putra Ridwan P. , Hidayat Achmad Syarif , Perdana Muhammad Iqbal
Published: July 2024

One of the formed fats that is attracting attention as an alternative to trans-fat is oleogel. Oleogels can be formed using edible and non-edible vegetable oils, depending on the desired application. In this study, we used an emulsion-template approach with three oil systems: canola oil, sunflower oil, and castor oil, and combined hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) and xanthan gum (XG) as oleogelators in specific ratios to form oleogel. Stable oleogels were formed when both oleogelators were present in the system. The oil binding capacity of the oleogel with respect to the amount of oil loss varied from less than 5% to more than 30%, depending on oil saturated fatty acid composition and HPMC:XG ratio. Higher saturated fatty acid concentration in the oil strengthens the oleogel matrix and reduces the oil loss rate. High HPMC composition and low XG composition reduce the oil binding ability of oleogels. In oleogel systems, HPMC acts as an emulsifier and XG acts as a thickener, resulting in a lower-than-average XG concentration and a thinner gel. Although the structure and color of oleogels are very stable over 28 days of storage, the rate of oxidation still needs to be minimized.  Heating the oleogel system and the presence of aqueous phase can accelerate the oxidation of the oleogel, which can shorten its shelf-life and limit its applications, especially in the food industry.
Artificial Intellegence in Smart-Home System using Power over Ethernet (PoE)
Authors: Utami Sri , Rahardjo Agoeng Harjatmo , Mursanto Wahyu Budi
Published: July 2024

Smart homes have been developed for the convenience and efficiency of energy use. Excessive lighting is one of the causes of wasted energy consumption. Smart light control is a solution. However, the control device used needs to be placed in the several points needed to turn on the lights, run the controller and the communication media so that the controller can adjust the lighting. This is very difficult during installation because an electric line is required to each light point. There are many AC / DC adapters for each light controller and there will be additional cables if a cable is used for the communication line. This study examines the use of Power over Ethernet (PoE) which is used for smart lamp installations where the ethernet data communication cable is not only used for communication but also used to transmit DC power to regulate lamp lighting. Whereas for room lighting settings, a reading of how much light intensity the room is used is so that it can be determined the number of lights that need to be turned on. The combination of smart home intelligence and easy system installation with PoE is the focus of this research.
La noción de reconocimiento en Hegel y sus contribuciones al ámbito de la enfermería
Authors: Albornoz Lucas Ignacio
Published: July 2024

El objetivo principal del presente ensayo es mostrar las contribuciones teóricas de la noción hegeliana de reconocimiento (Anerkennung) en el ámbito de la enfermería, refiriéndonos particularmente a la temática del cuidado. Para ello, realizaremos un abordaje del concepto de reconocimiento desde la obra del filósofo alemán G. W. F. Hegel (1770-1831) titulada Fenomenología del Espíritu. El ensayo se dividirá en dos partes. En primer lugar, expondremos la noción hegeliana de reconocimiento desde el Capítulo IV de la Fenomenología del Espíritu, dedicado a la Autoconciencia. Y luego, en segundo lugar, mostraremos la importancia que la teoría hegeliana sobre reconocimiento tiene para algunas problemáticas y desafíos propios del ámbito de la enfermería. En el curso del presente ensayo pretendemos mostrar y justificar que el planteo de Hegel sobre el reconocimiento permite fundamentar filosófica, ética y políticamente el proceso de atención sanitaria en el ámbito de la enfermería, permitiendo de esta manera alcanzar una significación del cuidado más integral, esto es, no reducida estrictamente a la esfera de lo biológico, sino que involucre también las dimensiones éticas, psicológicas, económicas e histórico-políticas, tanto de quienes brindan cuidados como de quienes los reciben.

Published: July 2024

Ser enfermera es abrazar una vocación que trasciende la profesión; mediado por un compromiso profundo con la vulnerabilidad humana. Esto involucra no solo la capacidad de aliviar el sufrimiento de la persona enferma, sino también la dedicación a proteger su dignidad y a reconocer su valor intrínseco como ser humano. Es un llamado a ser un faro de esperanza en los momentos más oscuros, donde cada gesto y cada palabra pueden marcar la diferencia en la vida de quienes confían en las enfermeras. Ellas razonan que la persona enferma, las necesita, al percibir como se replantean la vida y temen a la muerte o soledad.
Designing and Delivering an Interdisciplinary Undergraduate Degree in Quantitative Biology
Authors: Saunders Timothy E. , Cross Robert A. , Bowman Andrew J.
Published: July 2024

With the arrival of new technologies, the biological sciences have become significantly more quantitative over the past 30 years. These new approaches have drawn in researchers from a broad range of disciplines; for example, trained physicists are now commonplace among biology department faculty. Yet, education in the biological sciences often does not reflect this large shift. Here, we outline a new program developed and taught at the University of Warwick to tackle the challenge of bringing quantitative, interdisciplinary education to the biosciences. We provide an overview of the course and the rationale for its structure. We then discuss lessons learned to aid others planning to implement interdisciplinary undergraduate courses based on teaching from research.

The outstanding role of digitalisation and environmental protection in enhancing corporate competitiveness
Authors: Vona Gábor
Published: July 2024

This study aims to explore Hungarian industries and manufacturing branches demonstrating the highest air pollutant emission intensities, unifying digitalisation and environmental protection tools into comprehensive categories, and designating differentiating single attributes and categories of digitalisation and environmental protection regarding competitiveness. Few studies have explored the nexus between competitiveness, digitalisation, and environmental protection. This study applies the independent samples t-test, principal component analysis, and non-hierarchical cluster analysis. The critical industrial areas include energy supply, agriculture, and emission-intensive manufacturing branches (wood, paper, and printing; coke and refined petroleum products; chemicals and chemical products; rubber and plastic products; basic metals and fabricated metal products). More competitive and typically small- and mid-sized Hungarian companies are more intensely impacted by a shortage of qualified workforce, which impedes their innovation activities compared to less competitive firms. Additionally, the more competitive group outperforms the other group in both digitalisation and environmental protection. However, achieving better competitiveness does not necessitate a higher performance in any of the two fields within the more competitive group.
New Hungarian occupational prestige scale
Authors: Huszár Ákos , Hajdu Gábor , Sik Endre , Nagy Réka Klára
Published: July 2024

We aim to create in this paper a comprehensive prestige scale based on the 2016 microcensus supplementary survey on occupational prestige of the Hungarian Central Statistical Office, where respondents have been requested to rate the prestige of 15 occupations (randomly selected from 173 occupations). Based on their answers, each occupation is assigned a relative prestige score. Furthermore, we created five additional scales that rank occupations according to earnings, social usefulness, education level, power and trendiness. First, we briefly summarise the characteristics of the occupational prestige scales in relation to other gradual measures of social status and then describe how the new prestige scales were created. Finally, we present the basic features of the new scales.
Time and Transformation in Henry James’ Social Novels
Authors: Buchholtz Mirosława
Published: July 2024

The Princess Casamassima and The Bostonians, both published in 1886, are exceptional in James’ literary career. They exemplify his attempt to adjust to the expectations of his readers by venturing into contemporaneous sociopolitical debates. Writing these two novels was in itself an act of courage. No reviewer expected James to have any expertise in matters relating to the lives of early feminists or lower classes. He was, however, interested in these current issues and invested time and effort in researching them. The two novels form a transatlantic diptych, with The Bostonians addressing the topic of American feminism and The Princess Casamassima focusing on workers’ movements in Britain. Quite predictably, most American reviewers were critical of The Bostonians, which only shows that the novel touched a nerve, and praised The Princess Casamassima, which seemed to concern British society. Reviewers in Britain did the reverse, which exposes the quasi-patriotic impulse in literary reviewing of that time, or perhaps any time. The author argues that James’ work on his social novels transformed his self-perception as a writer. She also shows that the transformations James captured in Anglo-Saxon societies and their representatives on both sides of the Atlantic are at once caught up in history and symptomatically timeless, almost historiosophic.
Conradowskie Zwierciadło morza, czyli glosa do nowoczesności
Authors: Wojciechowska Sylwia J.
Published: July 2024

Bogata spuścizna Josepha Conrada obejmuje wiele gatunków literackich, na których tle Zwierciadło morza wyróżnia się zarówno pod względem nietypowej formy, jak i treści. Pomimo niezwykłej popularności, jaką cieszyło się pierwsze wydanie Zwierciadła morza, utwór ten należy dziś do mniej znanych dzieł pisarza i zazwyczaj analizowany jest głównie pod względem formalnym jako przykład wczesnomodernistycznej autobiografii. Poniższy artykuł podejmuje próbę interpretacji nie formy, a przesłania zawartego w dygresjach o zmianach z przełomu XIX i XX w., których pierwsze symptomy zauważył Conrad. Obierając teorię „płynnej nowoczesności” sformułowaną przez Zygmunta Baumana za istotny punkt odniesienia dla podjętych rozważań, dowodzę, iż Zwierciadło morza można odczytać jako zapis doświadczenia przejścia ku nowej rzeczywistości, u której podstaw leży redefinicja czasoprzestrzeni. Namysł nad czasem i jego postrzeganiem stanowi punkt wyjścia dla przedstawionej poniżej interpretacji Conradowskiego Zwierciadła morza, którego spektrum rozważań najwyraźniej wybiega poza zainteresowania autobiografii jednostki: czerpiąc z bogactwa własnych wspomnień, jego autor formułuje refleksję na temat re-definicji czasu i przestrzeni. Takie odczytanie Zwierciadła morza pozwala uznać ten tekst za cenny komentarz do procesów zachodzących w obrębie percepcji czasu w dobie nowoczesności.
Denegation, Textuality and Intertextuality in ”The Idiots”
Authors: Branny Grażyna Maria Teresa
Published: July 2024

“The Idiots,” published as part of Conrad’s first collection of short stories Tales of Unrest (1898), is, by far, the most minimalist of all his tales, therefore dubbed “pointless” by one of his critics. As such, it has mostly occasioned contextual readings to date, purely literary approaches to the story being few and far between. The present article offers a transformative reappraisal of this deprecated Conrad tale, in considering its artistic texture. A combined textual and intertextual approach proposed here reveals the presence, also in this Conrad story, of the modernist device of denegation (assertion of presence by absence, and vice versa) usually ascribed to William Faulkner, which helps resolve the issue of the tale’s ambiguous ending by defining it as the main heroine’s accidental drowning rather than suicide as it is usually seen in Conrad criticism. In its epistemologically transformative role, denegation likewise removes the odium of senselessness from “The Idiots” by identifying its covert, because denegatively construed, taboo theme of incest. The intertextual (Bakhtinian) reading of the story in Kristeva’s understanding of the term, and therefore through recourse to a later writer, i.e., Faulkner, does not only confirm the presence of the theme of incest in “The Idiots” but also reveals the American modernist’s unacknowledged indebtedness to this Conrad tale for some of the key motifs, if not its overall theme, of his most famous novel The Sound and the Fury (1929).
Joseph Conrad – A Time-Lord
Authors: Skolik Joanna
Published: July 2024

Conrad’s fiction manages the temporal dimension in highly innovative ways. Conrad was ahead of his time in employing such devices as delayed decoding, flashbacks, time-shifts, as well as by enveloping his characters in temporal loops or a timeless space. In his works, time defies the laws of physics, allowing him to create an idiosyncratic space-time continuum.
Shakespeare’s Mixed Genres
Authors: Gibinska Marta
Published: July 2024

The problem of generic transformations to which Shakespeare’s plays bear witness is discussed against the ancient and early renaissance definitions and discussions of dramatic genres, from Aristotle through Plautus, Cintho, Castelvetro, Guarini to Sidney. The point of interest is located in the fuzziness in which comedy melts with tragedy (or the other way round) and yields in effect a new creation – tragicomedy. The wide range of Shakespearean comedy, tragedy, histories and Roman plays is briefly discussed in order to illustrate Shakespeare’s generic transformations, proving that traditional construction of dramatic genres, i.e., of tragedy, comedy and tragicomedy, was too narrow and too constraining for the early modern understanding of the condition of man.
Przekształcenia klasyki literackiej w XXI wieku
Authors: Zabawa Krystyna
Published: July 2024

Klasyka literacka jest ponadczasowa z definicji, ale paradoksalnie również przechodzi przemiany w czasie dzięki niezliczonym adaptacjom. Jednym z interesujących zjawisk kultury XXI w. jest popularność powieści graficznych opartych na tekstach klasyki. Przykłady można mnożyć. W kręgu literatury anglojęzycznej swoich adaptacji doczekały się m.in. powieści Jane Austen, Josepha Conrada, Charlesa Dickensa, C.S. Lewisa, Virginii Woolf. Moje analizy w tym artykule skupiają się na klasycznej powieści Anne of Green Gables (1908) kanadyjskiej pisarki L.M. Montgomery i opartej na niej powieści graficznej pod tym samym tytułem, stworzonej przez M. Marsden i B. Thummler (2017). W tym studium przedstawione zostały sposoby, w jaki klasyka literacka sprzed wieku jest przekształcana we współczesną powieść graficzną oraz główne kierunki zmian. Podstawowe problemy badawcze brzmią: W jaki sposób kształtowany jest czas akcji w oryginale oraz w powieści graficznej? W jaki sposób zmienia się (jeśli się zmienia) kreacja miejsca akcji, bohaterowie, fabuła? Celem artykułu jest analiza tych wszystkich przekształceń, ustalenie rządzących nimi zasad oraz ich wpływu na wymowę utworu.

W artykule rozważany jest problem budowania zaufania do artefaktów obliczeniowych typu AGI (ang. Artificial General Intelligence), z etycznego punktu widzenia określanych jako podmioty moralne explicite. W wyniku analizy opartej na badaniach literatury oraz przedstawieniu aktualnych trendów w rozwoju systemów AI wskazanych jest kilka warunków skonstruowania testów behawioralnych niezbędnych do sprawdzania poprawności ich działania z etycznego punktu widzenia. Przeprowadzenie takich testów powinno ułatwić procedury etycznej aprobaty systemów AGI zarówno na poziomie wytwórców, indywidualnego użytkownika, jak i jednostek certyfikujących.
Zeroculturality
Authors: Grzechynka Agnieszka
Published: July 2024

This article explores a recently discovered phenomenon in the digital landscape, labeled as “zeroculturality.” Unveiled through the author’s recent research in the realms of politics, culture, and communication, zeroculturality represents a transformative shift where cultural boundaries are not only spontaneously vanishing but are also intentionally obliterated. Individuals embodying zeroculturality consciously reject conventional cultural norms while preserving specific values, adapting their identity to synchronize with the dynamic demands of time and place. Essentially, these individuals may discard certain cultural behaviors while retaining the fundamental values associated with them. While not yet pervasive, zeroculturality merits significant consideration, particularly for entities striving to effectively communicate, manage relationships, and disseminate information. Traditional approaches in persuasive communication, grounded in demographics, psychosocial factors, or values, may be losing efficacy. The author’s research on zeroculturality aims to have a practical impact by offering insights that can guide effective communication, business strategies, and political decision-making in the digital age. The article provides a nuanced understanding of how individuals embracing zeroculturality navigate cultural boundaries, offering practical solutions for communicators to engage effectively with this audience. In the business sphere, the research seeks to inform marketers on tailoring strategies to the unique purchasing behaviors of those embodying zeroculturality. Additionally, the author hopes policymakers will leverage these insights to make informed decisions on societal values in the face of evolving cultural norms. Ultimately, the research aims to bridge the gap between academic understanding and practical application, empowering professionals across various sectors to navigate the challenges posed by zeroculturality in the digital era.

Background & objectives: COVID-19 pandemic affected people all around the world since its first notification in 2020. The virus also affected pregnant ladies as well as their neonates. We aimed to accumulate data and report the clinical characteristics and outcomes of COVID-19 childbirths in two teaching hospitals during the pandemic.  
Methodology: We retrospectively extracted data of COVID-19 infected parturients and their newborns at the time of delivery from electronic record system of the two target hospitals.
Results: Electronic records of 44 parturients, known to have COVID infection, and delivered in two hospitals.  Out of them, 21 were on medication for the viral infection and 26 needed supplement oxygen. Six patients gave birth naturally and 38 had cesarean section to deliver. Rate of cesarean section and preterm labor was 81.81% and 31.81% respectively. Out of 36 patients who underwent cesarean section, 28 initially had spinal anesthesia.
Conclusion: COVID-19 infection increased risk of preterm labor; however, Covid itself did not affect the mode of delivery and type of anesthesia. The most important lesson of covid was real time sharing of vital data.

Published: July 2024

Background & objective: Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a disorder of the reproductive aged women, which may affect fertility of these women from 14-45 y of age. Neuregulin-1 (NRG-1) is a trophic factor that contains an epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like domain, and has been shown to be associated with the regulation of inflammation and ovulation. We evaluated the role of NRG-1 and its relationship with hormonal and lipid profile in women with PCOS.
Methodology: This was a case-control study which included 60 women, known to be suffering from PCOS and another 60 age-matched women, who had regular menstrual cycle, as a control group. Blood samples were collected from Infertility Clinic/ Al-Yarmouk Teaching Hospital. Hormonal and lipid profiles were measured using standard methods. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to measure serum level of NRG-1. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the diagnostic value of NRG-1.
Results: The median serum level of neuregulin in patients was 2.73 pg/mL (range = 1.13-7.39 pg/mL) which was higher than that of controls (median = 2.1 pg/mL, range = 0.33-7.39 pg/mL) with a significant difference the area under the curve (AUC) was 0.652, 95%CI = 0.545-0.758, P = 0.008. The sensitivity and specificity of the test at cut off value of NRG-1 = 2.25 were 62% and 52%, respectively. Neuregulin-1 displayed a significant negative correlation with anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) (r = -0.324, P = 0.038).
Conclusions: Serum level of neuregulin-1 is increased in women with polycystic ovarian syndrome, but has a poor diagnostic value, and its negative correlation with anti-Müllerian hormone. However, the diagnostic value of neuregulin-1 is poor and cannot be used in early diagnosis of polycystic ovarian syndrome.

Fluid balance in critically ill: a predictor of death?
Authors: Semedi Bambang Pujo , Soediono Mochammad Ridhwan
Published: July 2024

In the critically ill patients, fluid therapy may cause fluid overload if it is not based on the indication. The understanding of fluid therapy and precise knowledge of how much fluids a patient might need, is essential to avoid further complications that can lead to morbidity or even mortality. Goal-directed and guided fluid resuscitation is the main concept of fluid therapy, and it must be based on the recorded daily fluid balance. It is a known fact that positive fluid balance during the treatment period may lead to pulmonary edema, hemodynamic instability and can worsen the overall condition of the patient.

An input-output hydro-economic model to assess the economic pressure on water resources
Authors: Rocchi Benedetto , Viccaro Mauro , Sturla Gino
Published: July 2024

This study develops a hydroeconomic input-output (IO) model to evaluate the pressures that economic activities exert on water resources. For a better understanding of the sectoral and total impacts, three innovations are incorporated with respect to previous literature: i) the development of a methodology for disaggregating the extended water demand (blue water plus grey water) by economic sector, ii) the use of the IO side of the model to reclassify water demand by “extracting” and “demanding” sectors, and iii) the proposition of an improved indicator of pressure on water resources based on a “feasible” measure of water supply. Empirically tested in the Tuscany region (Italy), our findings reveal significant changes in the structure of economic pressures when adopting the proposed approach. When assessing direct total water withdrawals, agriculture accounts for 61% and manufacture for 20% of regional pressures. However, when considering only the demand for water resources exposed to scarcity reclassified by demanding sectors, agriculture falls to 5% and manufacture rises to 54%. By incorporating grey water in water demand and a “feasible” measure of supply, the regional water exploitation indicator increases from 0.05 to 0.19, and can even reach 0.30 with dry hydrological conditions, beyond the threshold for moderate scarcity (0.20). The unbalance between water supply and demand worsen even more when considering the balance of surface waters only (1.16). The proposed model can support an in-depth analysis of an economy’s water footprint, allowing impacts to be mapped from specific industries to particular water bodies. This information can support decisions about sustainable water management at the national and regional levels.
