The article shows that in the agro-industrial complex of Northern Kazakhstan, much attention is paid to the issues of progressive improvement of soil fertility, crop yields, increasing the production of grain, feed and other crops based on a scientifically based farming system. Currently, the acreage should be carried out in the crop rotation system and a special place is occupied by the problem of providing the population with high-protein and balanced fatty foods. The introduction of oilseed flax into diversified types of field crop rotations contributes not only to providing the national economy with oilseed products, but also to improving the agrophysical, biological and agrochemical properties of ordinary chernozems. In addition, flaxseed contains a large amount of balanced and easily digestible protein, vegetable oil, various sugars and carbon waters, as well as essential vitamins and trace elements needed in the diet. Field experimental studies were conducted to identify the effect of the effectiveness of mineral and organic fertilizers on improving soil fertility, the formation of the size and quality of flax crops, and to determine the most effective option in the northern region of Kazakhstan. The optimal use of mineral and organic fertilizers caused a positive effect of flax plant cenosis on the density, in particular, on the field germination of plants, plant growth dynamics, accumulation of raw and dry mass of flax plants. The optimal use of mineral and organic fertilizers contributed in addition to increasing soil fertility on plant yields and profitability of growing oilseed flax.

The use of mineral fertilizers is an important agronomic technique in the system of intensive agriculture. In 2021-2022, field experiments were conducted in the Maktaaral district of Turkestan province to assess the response of mid-season melon to different doses and ratios of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers. To model the effect of fertilizers and soil salinity on the indicators of yield and nutrient use by melon plants, the data by years were subjected to mathematical processing separately in order to build the most adequate regression models describing the dependence of the resulting factors on the studied factors against the background of the real state of soil fertility. In the first year of research, the early melon yield was 96% dependent on the combined effect of all factors studied. At the same time, nitrogen fertilizer had a separate positive effect, but the effect of its interaction with phosphorus and salt was negative. Potassium combined with phosphorus accelerated melon's early maturity, but in interaction with salt it slowed it down. The gross yield of melon was 92 % dependent on the combined effect of the studied factors, with nitrogen separately and in combination with phosphorus and phosphorus combined with potassium showing a positive effect. The dependence of nitrogen removal per unit of melon yield on the studied factors was 99 %, phosphorus – 88 % and potassium – 78 %. In the second year of research, the early harvest of melons was 97 % dependent on the total effect of all the studied factors. Nitrogen fertilizers had a positive effect, while phosphorus and soil salinity had a negative effect. Nitrogen interaction with phosphorus and soil salinity had a negative effect. Potassium in interaction with phosphorus had a positive effect on early melon yield, but in interaction with soil salt it was negative. The gross yield of melon was 90% dependent on the combined effect of all 4 studied factors. The combination of nitrogen nutrition with potassium and soil salinity had a negative effect, while phosphorus combined with potassium had a positive effect on melon gross yield.  Nutrient removal by a unit of melon yield responded adequately to changes in the studied factors (R2=0.84-0.90) in the second year of the study. Application of nitrogen fertilizer increased normative removal of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium.

In arid and sharply continental soil and climatic conditions of the Akmola region, green-house farming is an important technique. Greenhouse farming is one of the promising areas of agriculture, since vegetable and melon crops are grown in conditions of temperature, humidity, illumination, and nutrient medium regulated at an optimal level, which results in a high yield of fruits, vegetables and melons. In the winter industrial greenhouse of Kokshetau University, the effect of mineral fertilizers and trace elements on the growth, development and yield of cucumber was studied. As a result of two crop rotations, positive data were obtained indicating an increase in plant growth in height at the early stages of vegetation by an average of 2.20 cm with presowing soaking of seeds and non-root fertilization of plants with 0.1-0.5 % aqueous solution with preparations of biological origin Phomazin+Filvimax, an increase in leaf area by 13.5 cm2, an acceleration of the flowering phase by 1.3-1.5 days, an increase in the yield of standard fruits by 22 pcs., an increase in yield by 5.9 kg / m2. The improvement of these indicators is justified by the presence in the preparations of biological origin Phomazin+Filvimax of a significant amount of macro- and microelements that play an important role in plant nutrition and the formation of cucumber fruits. It is recommended to grow vegetables according to the developed technology in a greenhouse in the conditions of the Akmola region for uninterrupted supply of fresh vegetables to the population.

Nowadays, to obtain high and stable yields of agricultural crops, in addition to the creation and introduction of new high-yielding varieties, the use of various plant protection products, growth stimulants and biopreparations, the effective use of mineral fertilizers is a necessary agricultural technique. The purpose of  this  work  was  to  study  the  influence  of  various  doses  and forms of nitrogen fertilizers on the dynamics of the accumulation of raw mass of corn plants, crop structure, yield, as well as the removal and normative consumption of nutrients on different salinization backgrounds in the Shaulder irrigation massif of Turkestan region. The obtained results showed that the best indicators were established in a slightly saline background than in an average saline one. On average, on a slightly saline background, the yield of corn grain, depending on the forms of nitrogen fertilizers at a dose of 80 kg / ha, varied in the range of 13.2-14.9 t/ha. At the same time, the yield gain from the use of various forms of fertilizers at the same doses of nitrogen amounted to 21.6-37.4 %. Against a medium-saline background, the option with the use of ammonium nitrate (variant 5) with an addition of 47.7 % nitrogen fertilizer to the phosphorus-potassium background. Regression models were obtained that accurately reflect the dependences of the grain yield and the elements of the corn crop structure on the total effect of nitrogen fertilizer (x1) and the degree of soil salinity (x2): Y = 18.429 + 0.2656x10.5 - 37.0995x2 with a high coefficient of determination - R2 = 0.954.  On a slightly saline background, nitrogen removal by the corn grain harvest with the corresponding amount of by-products according to the experimental options varied from 282.9 kg/ha in the P80K80 option, to 370.1 kg/ha in the P80K80 + N120 option (ammonium sulfate), phosphorus – from 121.4 kg/ha in the P80K80 + N80 option (urea) to 160.7 kg/ha in the P80K80 + N80 option (ammonium nitrate), potassium – from 325.2 kg/ha in the P80K80 + N80 option (urea) to 413.7 kg/ha in the P80K80 + N80 option (ammonium sulfate). On a medium-saline background, nitrogen removal was in the range of 175.3–223.8 kg/ha, phosphorus - 67.4-89.6 kg/ha, potassium – 178.5-217.3 kg/ha. The utilization rate of nitrogen from fertilizers varied significantly depending on the doses and forms of nitrogen fertilizers and the degree of soil salinity.

Published: April 2024

Atualmente, o tratamento endodôntico tem alcançado significativo sucesso clínico na prática diária. Contudo, as taxas de insucesso que dependem do retratamento continuam latente e grande parte devido à presença de microrganismos colonizando túbulos dentinários, canais acessórios, istmos e deltas apicais. A presença desses microrganismos demonstra a dificuldade das substâncias irrigadoras e das medicações intracanal em promoverem a desinfecção total, uma vez que as bactérias não a capacidade de penetrar a dentina em profundidades maiores que 1000nm, enquanto a penetração de agentes irrigantes químicos chega somente a 130nm. Alguns casos de retratamento também estão intimamente ligados à resistência bacteriana, devido a colonização do canal pelo Enterococcus faecalis, junto com outras espécies de microrganismos como a Candida albicans. Essas espécies têm se mostrado resistentes a vários antimicrobianos empregados convencionalmente no tratamento endodôntico, como o hidróxido de cálcio, o paramonoclorofenol, a clorexidina e o hipoclorito de sódio. Mediante ao exposto, a terapia fotodinâmica ou PDT, apresenta-se como uma alternativa bem interessante no que diz respeito à desinfecção e surge como coadjuvante ao tratamento tradicional, auxiliando no combate das infecções endodônticas. O objetivo desse trabalho é investigar, através de uma revisão de literatura, as indicações e os benefícios da terapia fotodinâmica na Endodontia, assim como seus protocolos de utilização.

Rethinking Jurisdictional Barriers to Practising Law Abroad: A Soft Technological Deterministic Approach
Authors: Lawal Temitope
Published: April 2024

The regulation of legal practice has been based predominantly on geographical boundaries. To varying degrees, foreign lawyers are prohibited from engaging in the practice of law in host jurisdictions without local admission, and in some cases with the added complexity of nationality or residency requirements. This is notwithstanding that increasing international trade and other transnational activities, enabled by advancements in technology that facilitate efficient transportation and communication, are creating a growing demand for legal services across borders. While much has been written about how technology is changing the nature of legal practice, the approach taken by this article is to assess whether technology is playing this change-role in a solely deterministic manner. In examining this question, this article applies soft technological determinism to argue that, while technology is an important factor, it does not have a mono-causal effect in shaping changes to cross-border legal practice. Rather, these changes are being influenced by an interplay of technological progress and non-technological factors such as similarities in legal systems, harmonisation of laws and trade affiliations.
What makes a “distinguished global scholar” in global education? : (Trans)formative experiences toward global mindedness
Authors: Tang Haoming , Tarc Paul , Budrow James , Sankar Persad Polin
Published: April 2024

Having an international experience, often through study abroad, has been a consistent theme in global education. There are a multitude of research studies on how international experiences foster global mindedness. In these studies, it is common for researchers to ask participants to reflect on their international experiences. In contrast, we took an alternative and slightly experimental qualitative approach to dig into the processes of becoming globally minded. Using existing and documented narratives as data, we examined the life-long learning processes of thirteen “distinguished global scholars.” Our study illuminates the (trans)formative experiences that contributed to their global mindedness. Four common themes emerged from our analysis: (1) Experiencing war and/or political tension; (2) Encountering social injustice; (3) Engaging with socio-cultural difference; and (4) Leaving the familiar / reaching out to the unknown. The findings and discussion deepen the understanding of how global mindedness is developed and offers insights for educational interventions.
Élèves haïtien.ne.s au Brésil et éducation interculturelle : Analyse des pratiques pédagogiques en classe de primaire
Authors: Jean Baptiste Marc Donald
Published: April 2024

Cet article utilise les données d'une thèse publiée en 2022 sur les incidences de la relation école-famille sur l'identité des enfants d'origine haïtienne au Brésil. L’objectif est de présenter les pratiques des enseignants en primaire au Brésil pour prendre en compte les différences culturelles de ces enfants. À la lumière du carré dialectique de la différence culturelle (Ogay et Edelmann,2011), les pratiques pédagogiques recueillies témoignent d’abord d’une bonne volonté enseignante qui n’empêche pas, malgré tout, des situations problématiques d’intervention interculturelle. Des interventions constatées en contexte scolaire conduisent, d’une part, à des exagérations du principe de l’égalité autour des valeurs comme le rapport de genre, la protection de l’enfance, la famille, etc. D’autre part, les tentatives des enseignant.e.s pour appréhender la différence culturelle conduisent à la culturalisation de ces élèves. Les pratiques enseignantes présentées nous amènent à comprendre l’urgence pour l’introduction de nouvelles compétences interculturelles et inclusives en contexte scolaire brésilien.

Published: April 2024

This study was conducted to investigate the drying behavior of bitter gourd (Momordica charantia L.) slices in a refractance window dryer. Various drying parameters such as water temperature (70, 80 and 90 °C), sample thickness (1, 2 and 3 mm) and blanching time (2, 3 and 4 min) were investigated for their effects on drying time, dehydration ratio and color change. Out of the 18 experimental runs determined by the Box Behnken design, six central experiments, often referred to as center points, were specifically chosen to assess the reliability of results. Four different empirical models viz. Exponential, Henderson and Pabis, Page's, and Power law model were selected based on their established applicability in similar studies, and fitted to the kinetics data of refractance window drying of bitter gourd. Adequacy of fit was assessed using the coefficient of determination (R2 ) and standard error of estimate (SEE). Page’s model demonstrated an excellent fit to the experimental drying data with a higher R2 value of 0.996 and correspondingly lower SEE of 0.0217 compared to the other three models. Furthermore, the drying process parameters were optimized for the responses using the Response Surface Methodology (RSM). The best values (within the chosen range) of water temperature, sample thickness and blanching time were found to be 90 °C, 1 mm and 4 min, respectively at desirability value of 0.889. At above condition of water temperature (90 °C), sample thickness (1 mm) and blanching time (4 min), the predicted values for the drying time, dehydration ratio and color change were found to be 52.2 min, 9.7 and 55.25, respectively. The findings of this study will be useful for refractance window drying of bitter gourd in particular and for high moisture foods in general.
Development of an Electronic Actuating Control Mechanism to Operate a Remotely Controlled 2-Wheel Rice Transplanter
Authors: Lohan Shiv Kumar , Narang Mahesh Kumar
Published: April 2024

Mechanical transplanters are adopted to reduce human drudgery in manual transplanting. Different types of manual and self-propelled paddy transplanters are commercially available. The human involvement is higher for operating a 2-wheel paddy transplanter operator has to walk 10-22 km behind the machine in a day in puddled field conditions under high temperature (38-440 C) and humid conditions (70-80% RH) in summer. Besides that, the operator has to walk within the 30 cm row width, which causes chafing between the thighs of an operator. To reduce the physical and physiological workload of an operator, an integrated control lever actuating mechanism with gear motors was developed to operate a 2-wheel paddy transplanter remotely. The inductive proximity sensors (SN04-N distance detector) were used to control the crank rotation position of the gear motors, motor drives (BTS 7960), and microcontroller (STM32F4) was used to connect with the auto-driver kit to control the motor mechanism and sensors. The auto-driver kit consisted of a variety of accessories, a physical programmable circuit board, and software, that runs on a PC, used to write and upload computer code as a simplified version of C++ to the physical board. Although the initial cost of the machine with the developed system has been increased up to 28%, but at the same time the effective field capacity has been increased from 0.158 ± 0.02 ha h-1 to 0.175 ± 0.04, resulting the area covered per day and per year has also increased up to 11%. With the development of remotely controlled system, the labor requirement has been reduced from 20± 1 to 13± 1 man h ha-1, which results reduction up to 40%. Moreover, the human fatigue in terms of physical and physiological work load involved while walking behind the transplanter has been eliminated at much extent. As compared to the existing walk-behind type paddy transplanter, the net profit with the developed system rise up to 18.50 to 26.61 % per year and a boost of  34.10 to 51.63% in benefit-cost ratio. Field evaluation of a developed remote-controlled system for a two-wheel rice transplanter would be viable, reducing fatigue among machine operators/farm workers while increasing work productivity and safety.
Comparative Performance Evaluation of ANN and Hybrid ANN-HBA Models for Temporal and Spatial Modeling of Precipitation in East Azarbaijan Province of Iran
Authors: Zehsaz Kimia , Mohajeri Farzan , Samantaray Sandeep
Published: April 2024

In this study, temporal and spatial modeling of precipitation was performed in East Azarbaijan province of Iran using 27-year (1996-2022) data by employing two neural network models, i.e., stand-alone artificial neural network (ANN) and hybrid ANNHoney badger optimization algorithm (ANN-HBA). In temporal modeling, one-month and two-month precipitation delay steps were used as input parameters, and monthly precipitation was considered as output parameter. On the other hand, in spatial modeling, longitude, latitude, and altitude were used as input parameters and average monthly precipitation was considered as output parameter. Comparative performance of both the employed models was evaluated using three statistical criteria, i.e., root mean square error (RMSE), correlation coefficient (R) and Nash- Sutcliffe efficiency (NSE). In addition, precipitation in ungauged areas was estimated based on rainfall data of the nearby rain gauges through spatial interpolation methods such as isohyet and Thiessen polygon. Results of the temporal precipitation modeling revealed better performance of the hybrid ANN-HBA model over the stand-alone ANN model. Furthermore, the hybrid ANN-HBA model, during testing phase of the temporal modeling, could resemble the precipitation most accurately at Maraghe station (with values of R as 0.95, RMSE as 1 mm, and NSE as 0.85). Similarly, the hybrid ANN-HBA model during testing phase (with values of R as 0.95, RMSE as 1 mm, and NSE as 0.96) outperformed the stand-alone ANN model in depicting the precipitation adequately at spatial scale.

The comparative ergonomic evaluation of six different personal protective equipment (PPE) kits was carried out with six male subjects. The study was carried out in mango orchard with power sprayer. The mean age, body mass and stature of the subjects were 34.5 (±6.7) years, 61.0 (±8.2) kg and 1.64 (±0.05) m, respectively. The aprons of six PPE kits used were made from the different materials viz., polyester, cotton polyester, polypropylene, water proof polyester, cotton C1 level (highly absorbent having up to 40% solvent penetration) fabric and cotton C2 level (highly repellent having up to 5% solvent penetration). The result showed that the energy grade of work was ‘light’ with all PPE kits. The wearing comfort for P6 PPE kit consisting of cotton C2 level fabric apron was 7.5 indicating ‘very comfortable’. The temperature difference between inside and outside of PPE kit made from cotton C2 level was 4.9ο C. The effect of six different PPE kits was significantly (p<0.01) different for working heart rate, work pulse, energy expenditure rate, maximum oxygen consumption (% VO2max), wearing comfort rating and % rise in temperature. Considering the effect on different ergonomic parameters, P6 PPE kit consisting of apron made from C2 level cotton fabric (200 GSM) was found ergonomically suitable for pesticide spraying in mango orchard. This study provides valuable insight for selection of the appropriate PPE kit for pesticide application in the mango orchards in Konkan Region, India.

Published: April 2024

The present research focused on the medicinal plant Safed Musli (Chlorophytum borivilianum), which is commonly used in traditional Indian medicine. The powdered roots of this plant are frequently incorporated into pharmaceutical formulations. The primary objective of this study was to analyse the drying behaviour of Safed Musli roots using empirical modelling. Specifically, the roots were dried at three distinct temperatures (45, 50, and 55 °C) until they attained equilibrium moisture content. The initial root moisture content was 313.21% (d.b.). Six empirical models for drying were tested using the moisture ratios derived from the moisture loss data. The models were assessed based on the coefficient of determination (R2 ) and root mean square error (RMSE). The Page model emerged as the best-fitting model, with R2 values ranging from 0.9913 to 0.9961 at all three drying temperatures. The effective diffusivity of Safed Musli roots varied from 2.234×10-9 to 5.214×10-9 m2 .s-1, with higher values observed at higher drying temperatures. This study offers valuable insights for engineers who design drying equipment and processes for Safed Musli roots, thereby enhancing the efficiency and quality of the drying process.
