Effects of Instructor Gender, Visual, and Auditory Melodic Recorded Instruction on Sequential Working Memory Recall in Individuals with and without Autism Spectrum Disorder
Authors: Schwartzberg Edward Todd , Silverman Michael J
Published: June 2019

There is a lack of empirical inquiry concerning the effect of the therapist’s gender and aspects of visual and auditory melodic instruction on working memory recall in individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).  The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of instructor gender and visual and auditory melodic instruction on working memory in individuals with ASD.  Participants (n = 38 individuals with ASD and n = 18 neurotypical [NT] university students) viewed or listened to four melodic sequences of seven randomized monosyllabic words sung by female and male instructors. To assess working memory, participants’ tasks were to sequentially recall the paired information presented within each condition.  There was no significant within-group difference between both the male and female instructor conditions or the visual + auditory or auditory only melodic instruction.  Although not significant, participants tended to have slightly higher mean recall for the male instructor with visual + auditory stimuli condition and lower mean recall for the female instructor with auditory only stimuli condition.  There was a significant between-group difference with the NT group having greater recall accuracy than the ASD group.  Regardless of group or condition, participants tended to have greater recall accuracy at primary and recency serial positions.  As individuals with ASD may have unique learning challenges, information paired with music may be delivered in multi-sensory ways to increase the likelihood of recall and subsequent learning.  Implications for clinical practice, limitations of the study, and suggestions for future research are provided.

ABSTRACT: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of treatment with equine chorionic gonadotrophin (eCG) on the follicular dynamics and function of crossbred cows with different circulating progesterone (P4) concentrations during synchronization of ovulation in a fixed-time artificial insemination (FTAI) protocol. To this end, 30 crossbred cows were submitted to a pre-synchronization protocol to ensure that all of them presented corpus luteum (CL) at the beginning of the protocol, and were evaluated by transrectal ultrasonography (TRUS) to verify the presence of CL. After that, the animals underwent an ovulation synchronization protocol and evaluation of follicular dynamics and vascularization by B-mode and power-Doppler ultrasound (US). High plasma P4 concentrations at the time of ovulation synchronization negatively influenced follicle diameter on day 10 (D10), preovulatory follicle diameter, and preovulatory follicle wall vascularization area (p<0.05). Cows with high P4 concentration at the time of ovulation synchronization that were treated with eCG showed follicle diameter on D10 and preovulatory follicle diameter and wall vascularization area (p>0.05) similar to those of animals with low P4 concentration at the time of ovulation synchronization. Therefore, high P4 concentrations at the time of ovulation synchronization negatively influence follicular diameter and vascularization, and eCG can be used as a strategy to favor better follicular and luteal response in crossbred cows with high P4 concentrations submitted to an FTAI protocol.

Published: July 2019

Abstract: The objective of this work was to evaluate the productive performance of soybean crops, in response to the use of seeds from lots with increasing vigor levels. The study was developed during the 2014/2015 and 2015/2016crops. In the first period, 14 treatments were evaluated, consisting of two factors, two genotypes (Syn 1059RR and NK7059RR), and seven seed lots. In the second seven treatments were considered, involving one genotype (Syn 1158RR) and seven seed lots. In both crop years, seed lots had vigor levels of 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90 and 95%, as determined by the accelerated aging test. The experiment was performed in a randomized block design, with a factorial scheme and five replications. Plant height, yield components, and grain yield were assessed throughout the culture cycle. The reflex of seed vigor in crop performance depended on the genotype employed. Also, there was an increase in both vegetative and reproductive performances of the crop as a function of seed vigor level. In this sense, every percentage point augmented in the vigor level of the lots resulted in a grain yield expansion of up to 28 kg.ha-1.
Rituais de iniciação à dor entre homens na musculação: etnografia de uma academia de ginástica
Authors: Silva Alan Camargo , Ferreira Jaqueline
Published: July 2019

Resumo Compreender determinados grupos sociais por meio da lógica dos rituais revela, em parte, o pensar, o agir e o sentir dos sujeitos em dado contexto socioeconômico e cultural. Assim, objetiva-se analisar e discutir de que formas as masculinidades são exercidas na musculação, considerando os rituais de iniciação à dor nas práticas corporais. Pautado pela perspectiva antropológica do interacionismo simbólico, este trabalho etnográfico realizou-se numa academia de pequeno porte localizada num bairro de baixo poder aquisitivo da zona oeste do Rio de Janeiro durante um ano. Os dados indicaram que a pluralidade e a dinâmica da construção identitária entre homens determinam como a diversidade de masculinidades interfere nos modos de conceber ou cuidar do corpo, assim como no engajamento nos exercícios físicos. Esses elementos empíricos contribuem para pensar não somente na intervenção de professores de Educação Física, como também nas práticas de outros profissionais de saúde com seus públicos masculinos.
Da prescrição à escuta: efeitos da gestão autônoma da medicação em trabalhadores da saúde
Authors: Santos Deivisson Vianna Dantas dos , Onocko-Campos Rosana , Basegio Daniele , Stefanello Sabrina
Published: July 2019

Resumo O uso de psicotrópicos e os direitos relacionados à escolha dos tratamentos prescritos vêm ganhando espaço na literatura. Este artigo deriva de uma pesquisa qualitativa na qual se interveio em 10 serviços de saúde (Atenção Primária e Secundária) de dois municípios (Campinas e Amparo, SP). Seguindo os princípios da Reforma Psiquiátrica Brasileira de incluir os usuários nas decisões dos seus tratamentos, utilizou-se a gestão autônoma da medicação (GAM) como estratégia de intervenção; ela é originária do Canadá, e propõe “empoderar” usuários quanto ao uso de medicamentos em seus projetos terapêuticos. Este trabalho avalia a percepção dos trabalhadores que moderaram grupos de GAM. A partir de entrevistas semiestruturadas com esses moderadores, antes e depois da intervenção, construíram-se narrativas sob os preceitos da hermenêutica gadameriana. Os trabalhadores que experimentaram a estratégia assumiram papel mais crítico quanto a suas práticas clínicas, e identificaram, na metodologia horizontal, grupal e direcionada para a escuta de valorização da voz dos usuários, uma experiência capaz de promover uma clínica mais flexível e propícia à construção conjunta de ações. A experimentação da GAM nesta pesquisa permitiu analisá-la em relação a outros referenciais brasileiros da saúde coletiva, como a educação popular e a medicina centrada na pessoa, operando uma interessante hibridação cultural.
Dilemas atuais da sociedade brasileira sob as lentes da antropologia: relato de experiência de uma disciplina do curso de graduação em saúde coletiva da UFRJ
Authors: Ferreira Jaqueline , Tramontano Lucas , Klein Ana Paula
Published: July 2019

Resumo A antropologia brasileira tem se debruçado sobre o multiculturalismo, a diversidade social e a desigualdade econômica no país. Os estudos antropológicos sobre essas questões muito contribuíram para inseri-las nos debates mais amplos sobre os problemas sociais brasileiros. Este artigo trata de um relato de experiência de ensino em duas ofertas da disciplina Atividades Integradas em Saúde Coletiva (Aisc) II para bacharelandos do segundo período do curso de graduação em saúde coletiva da Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro. A disciplina busca trazer à discussão problemas sociais emergentes da sociedade brasileira, como racismo, intolerância religiosa, saúde da população transexual e violência doméstica. Por meio de rodas de conversa com ativistas e visitas a locais de militância, os alunos realizam observação participante e conhecem suas lutas e reivindicações. Introduzindo conceitos caros à antropologia, como etnocentrismo, relativismo e movimentos sociais, pretende-se estimular nos estudantes uma reflexão crítica sobre dilemas sociais contemporâneos. Os debates, os relatos e as trocas de experiências advindos no decorrer da disciplina mostram que a antropologia tem muito a contribuir para uma formação e atuação mais dialógica desses futuros sanitaristas com as populações às quais prestarão cuidado, além de favorecer uma compreensão mais aplicada do impacto das desigualdades sociais no processo saúde-doença.
Cultura e cuidado: dilemas e desafios do ensino da antropologia na graduação em Saúde Coletiva
Authors: Gerhardt Tatiana Engel
Published: July 2019

Resumo Após 10 anos de atividades na graduação em Saúde Coletiva, da mudança do perfil dos estudantes nas universidades públicas e da aprovação recente das Diretrizes Curriculares Nacionais (DCN), cabe refletir sobre o modo como o ensino das ciências sociais e humanas em saúde (CSHS) tem sido realizado e quais são os desafios, dilemas e possibilidades existentes. Este ensaio apresenta reflexões sobre os desafios do ensino da antropologia no bacharelado em Saúde Coletiva da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul e levanta questões sobre as DCN, apenas com a pretensão de colocar em debate o cotidiano e a prática da formação de sanitaristas. As reflexões partem da vivência nos encontros com estudantes do primeiro semestre, que demandam já de inicio compor o conjunto híbrido de saberes e práticas e se situar entre o polo reflexivo e o prático, entre o aplicado e o teórico, desenvolvendo estratégias que permitam sair do aplicado em direção ao implicado na produção do pensamento social em saúde e de suas práticas. Partem também das atividades indissociáveis entre ensino-pesquisa-extensão, trabalhadas nesses encontros em sala de aula e em territórios de aprendizagem, onde a construção do conhecimento é feita na intersubjetividade das relações, à qual ninguém chega desprovido de saberes e experiências.
Agronegocios y campesinos maiceros en la Frailesca: vulnerabilidad y resistencias
Authors: Pizaña Vidal Hugo Adrián , Fletes Ocón Héctor Bernabé , González Cabañas Alma Amalia
Published: June 2019

Se examinan las articulaciones entre una gama heterogénea de actores del agronegocio, así como los acomodos y resistencias de campesinos en el ámbito territorial, con el fin de identificar tanto los impactos de la reestructuración política neoliberal, como las alternativas y retos que se les presentan a los segundos. El análisis se realiza en la región Frailesca, del estado sureño de Chiapas en México. En el primer apartado se revisa la configuración histórica de la región Frailesca, destacando algunos procesos específicos que le otorgaron su cualidad de región agrícola. Después se describe el cambio territorial impulsado por el proceso de reestructuración política y económica neoliberal, en particular en el periodo de fines de la década de los ochenta y la de los noventa. Se discuten los acomodos, resistencias y alternativas instrumentadas por pequeños productores y campesinos. Degradación de suelos, debilitamiento de los ingresos y pobreza, son los rasgos distintivos de la agricultura regional. Aun en esta situación, los diversos productores se muestran capaces de desplegar iniciativas y respuestas que, si bien no contrarrestan las formas de dominio de amplia escala, sí representan estrategias de resistencia y adaptación al modelo agrario, y les permite mejores condiciones de subsistencia en ese contexto.
A produção da vida material dos sitiantes da comunidade “Córrego das pedras em Tangará da Serra” (Mato Grosso) no contexto de expansão do agronegócio
Authors: Pereira Filho José
Published: June 2019

O presente artigo é resultado de uma pesquisa de doutoramento em andamento, intitulada: “Os sitiantes de Córrego das Pedras (MT): trajetórias de vida e memórias da terra de trabalho”. Objetivamos analisar a dinâmica social referente às formas de sobrevivência das famílias que vivem em mini e pequenas propriedades denominadas sítios, espaço de terras férteis, ocupadas no início da década de 60, onde residem e trabalham, localizada no município de Tangará da Serra, no estado de Mato Grosso, Brasil. A análise tem como foco a produção da vida material e imaterial, em um cenário de resistência ao avanço do agronegócio. A metodologia da pesquisa é predominantemente qualitativa, tendo a história oral e a memória como recursos metodológicos e as observações diretas e entrevistas como principais instrumentos de geração de dados. Para a presente reflexão, elegemos demonstrar o processo de produção de vida material (processos produtivos), suas mutações ao longo do tempo e o atual formato de produção, que possibilitou a construção de uma resistência, necessária à manutenção das famílias no campo. As famílias sitiantes subsistiram e subsistem ao tempo, em suas frações de terras, produzindo e reproduzindo uma dinâmica específica de vida. É um espaço de resistência ao modelo de desenvolvimento proposto para o estado e região.
Caña, campesinos y panela, emergencia del territorio dulce en el oriente antioqueño
Authors: Quintero Hernandez Jose Anibal , Charao Marques Flávia , Zuluaga Salazar Claudia Patricia
Published: June 2019

En el Oriente de Antioquia, se cruzan proyectos hidroeléctricos, población campesina y conflicto armado, generando dinámicas de desterritorialización. Este artículo analiza los procesos de conformación de una posible nueva territorialidad que ensambla el campesino y la producción de alimentos como parte de un proceso de restitución de mundos de vida en una situación de pos conflicto en Colombia. La investigación se sustentó en un abordaje etnográfico con dos organizaciones productoras de panela, partiéndose de una perspectiva de los actores sociales, y pasando a identificar componentes (materiales o no) ligados a procesos de reterritorialización. El trabajo finalmente identifica que la alianza caña-campesino-panela es vital para la emergencia del ‘Territorio Dulce’, donde se establecen dinámicas socio-materiales capaces de sostener la vida y restituir identidades en sus procesos afectivos y corporalidades inherentes.

Transformative and Selective Systems: A Study in Comparative Sociology of Academic Markets Careers
Authors: Sokolov Mikhail
Published: July 2019

The article explores the relationship between academic career structure and labor market organization characterizing different national academic systems. Selective and transformative systems are described as two opposite ideal types. The principal constitutive difference between them is that the selective system requires scholars to move between organizations at least ones during their academic career, and introduces time limits for staying at the lower steps of the academic ladder, while transformative systems do not prohibit inbreeding or ban staying indefinitely at lower academic ranks. The academic systems of Great Britain, Germany, Russia, USA, and France are used to demonstrate how this fundamental difference is related to many other parameters of institutional organization of national academic worlds, such as labor market competitiveness, selection procedures complexity, whether the labor market is driven by supply or demand, the level of geographic mobility, the presence of tenure, the role of formal indicators in academic productivity assessment, and the overall status of the academic profession.

Parental Involvement in Storybook Reading in English Project: Beyond the Reading Vocabulary
Authors:   Multimedia Universiti, Malaysia, Harji Madhubala Bava , Balakrishnan Kavitha ,   Multimedia Universiti, Malaysia
Published: July 2019

Since the 60s, research on emergent literacy has presented empirical evidence for the links between storybook reading to young children, parental involvement and language development. Stories, which provide children with vast opportunities to hear new words in a meaningful context subsequently lead to the acquisition of a richer mental model of both the world and vocabulary. Albeit research findings point to the strong causal links between storybook reading, literacy and language, development and parental involvement, little effort appears to be made in Malaysian’s pre-schools to capitalise on storybooks as a vehicle to literacy development and engaging the young children’s first teachers as partners for a common purpose. A structured program that builds bridges between schools and homes is lacking and researched upon. In exploring this missed opportunity, the Smart Partnership in Reading in English (SPIRE) project was piloted in a private preschool. 25 young children, their parents and the class teacher were involved in the project. The mix-mode method was adopted to gather quantitative and qualitative data. Findings show improved reading vocabulary and beyond: receptive and expressive language skills, print awareness, knowledge of grammar, meta-linguistic awareness. Implication is clear; storybooks can be a springboard to develop English literacy skills, specifically reading in English skills. Young learner providers would want to capitalise on this springboard, making learning to read more meaningful and pleasant, and less structured. A serious consideration ought to be made in involving parents (first teachers) to scaffold young learners’ literacy development. Keywords: Smart partnership in reading in English, literacy development, vocabulary development, young learners, parental involvement.
Social Media and Forced Migration: The Subversion and Subjugation of Political Life
Authors: Marlowe Jay
Published: June 2019

As social media platforms and the associated communication technologies become increasingly available, affordable and usable, these tools effectively enable forced migrants to negotiate political life across borders. This connection provides a basis for resettled refugees to interact with their transnational networks and engage in political activities in novel ways. This article presents a digital ethnography with 15 resettled refugees living in New Zealand and the role of social media and transnational networks for the maintenance and creation of political lives. Taking a broad interpretation of how political and political life are understood, this article focuses on how power is achieved and leveraged to provide legitimacy and control. In particular, it examines how refugees practise transnational politics through social media as they navigate both the subjugation and subversion of power. These digital interactions have the potential to reconfigure and, at times collapse, the distance between the resettled “here” and the transnational “there”. This article highlights how social media facilitates political lives as an ongoing transnational phenomenon and its implications for the country of resettlement and the wider diaspora.
Urban & Online: Social Media Use among Adolescents and Sense of Belonging to a Super-Diverse City
Authors: Van Eldik Anne K. , Kneer Julia , Jansz Jeroen
Published: June 2019

In a world of continuous migration, super-diverse cities consist of a multitude of migrants and non-migrants from a variety of cultural backgrounds. Yet one characteristic they all have in common is the place where they currently live. In addition, both groups are active users of social media, especially the young. Social media provide platforms to construct and negotiate one’s identity—particularly the identity related to where one lives: urban identity. This article presents the results of a survey study (N = 324) investigating the relationships between social media engagement and identity construction among migrant and non-migrant adolescents in the super-diverse city of Rotterdam, the Netherlands. It was found that urban identity was significantly higher for migrants than non-migrants. Certain aspects of social media engagement predicted urban identity in combination with social identity. Finally, social media engagement was found to be positively related to group self-esteem.
In the Bullseye of Vigilantes: Mediated Vulnerabilities of Kyrgyz Labour Migrants in Russia
Authors: Gabdulhakov Rashid
Published: June 2019

Hundreds of thousands of Kyrgyz labour migrants seek opportunities in Russia where they fall target to retaliation of vigilante citizens who find offence in the presence of alien labourers in their homeland. Vigilantism also takes place within this migrant ‘community’ where male Kyrgyz labour migrants engage in retaliation on female migrants over perceived offences such as dating non-Kyrgyz men. On several occasions between 2011 and 2016 videos featuring honour beating of female labour migrants by fellow countrymen shook the internet. The selected case illustrates vulnerabilities experienced by migrants due to xenophobia and hostility of the host state, as well as additional layers of vulnerabilities linked to gendered biases that ‘travel’ across borders along with compatriots in migration. The study argues that offline structures, norms, biases, violence, and stigma not only reincarnate online, where they culminate in vigilante acts, but consequently, they re-enter the offline discourse and go through further normalization and justification.
Faith-Based Organisations as Welfare Providers in Brazil: The Conflict over Gender in Cases of Domestic Violence
Authors: Beecheno Kim
Published: July 2019

What does the growth of faith-based organisations (FBOs) in social welfare mean for women’s rights and gender equality, especially within advocacy services for women experiencing domestic violence? Through empirical research within a Catholic-based organisation providing welfare services to abused women in São Paulo, Brazil, this article argues that FBOs can negatively impact the provision of women’s rights when conservative and patriarchal views towards gender and women’s roles in society are maintained. A heavily matrifocal perspective, where women’s identity and subjectivity are mediated through their normative roles as wives, mothers and carers of the family, appears to offer little possibility of change for abused women, who are encouraged to forgive violent husbands and question their own behaviour. Mediation between couples is promoted, undermining women’s rights upheld through Brazil’s domestic violence law (Lei Maria da Penha no 11.340). Furthermore, the focus of family preservation, supported by a patriarchal state, means that violence against women (VAW) appears to be subordinated to a focus on family violence and violence against children. In this case, faith-based involvement in social welfare rejects the feminist analysis of VAW as a gender-based problem, viewing it as a personal issue rather than a collective or political issue, making women responsible for the violence in their lives.

Sistemas de liberação controlada de fármacos têm por objetivos principais minimizar a necessidade de doses tóxicas e propiciar melhor controle da liberação do princípio ativo ao longo do tempo quando comparado à forma convencional de administração. Neste trabalho foi preparado um sistema de liberação controlada do fármaco mebendazol (MDZ), que apresenta baixa absorção gastrointestinal pela sua baixa solubilidade em água, a partir de uma matriz polimérica biodegradável formada por alginato de sódio. O teste de intumescimento e a avaliação temporal da liberação do ativo in vitro foram realizados em meio que simula as condições do corpo humano. A avaliação da resistência ao meio fisiológico pela matriz polimérica com MDZ incorporado mostrou que a mesma permaneceu por mais de 72 h no meio fisiológico, enquanto que a avaliação do comportamento de dissolução e liberação do MDZ durante 8 h mostrou-se satisfatória com a liberação do ativo de forma lenta de gradual, o que demonstra o potencial dessa matriz para ser usado como um dispositivo oral de liberação controlada desse fármaco.

Authors: Nakanishi Débora Spacini , Nigro Cláudia Maria Ceneviva
Published: July 2019

Este trabalho pretende acompanhar o desenvolvimento das narrativas e neonarrativas de escravos, contemplando três obras desses gêneros, uma de cada século: Doze anos de escravidão (1853) de Solomon Northup; Amada (1987) de Toni Morrison; e The Underground Railroad: os caminhos para a liberdade (2017) de Colson Whitehead. Essas narrativas têm como pano de fundo a vida e a jornada de escravos em busca de liberdade e humanidade, sendo produzidas na época ou posteriormente à vigência do sistema escravagista. Para realizar o trabalho, apoiamo-nos em autores como Gates Jr. e McKay (2004), Dubey (2010), em ensaios da própria Morrison (1988) e em entrevista com Whitehead para o The Guardian (2017).

Hava Sirkülasyonlu Fırın, Mikrodalga ve Halojen Lamba ile Kavurmanın Susamda Salmonella İnaktivasyonu ve Bazı Fizikokimyasal Özellikleri Üzerine Etkisi
Authors: SERT Durmuş , MERCAN Emin
Published: June 2019

Bu araştırmada, hava sirkülasyonlu fırın, halojen lamba ve mikrodalga
kavurma işleminin susam tohumlarında üç Salmonella
serotipi karışımının (S. Typhimurium, S. Newport ve S. Montevideo) inaktivasyon
etkinliği değerlendirilmiştir. Ayrıca kavurma proseslerinde ağırlık kaybı,
tekstürel özellikler (sertlik), su aktivitesi ve susam tohumlarının renk
değerleri incelenmiştir. Mikrodalga ve halojen kavurma 5.9 log kob/g ile
inoküle edilen susam tohumlarında, sırasıyla 4 ve 9 dk sonra Salmonella'yı tamamen inaktive etmiştir.
Bununla birlikte 15 dk boyunca hava sirkülasyonlu fırında kavurma işlemi Salmonella sayısında 2.0 log düşüş
sağlamıştır. Halojen ve mikrodalga, hava sirkülasyonlu fırına kıyasla susam
tohumlarının sertliğini ve aw değerlerini azaltmıştır. Halojen ve
mikrodalga kavurma işlemlerinde susam tohumunun ağırlık kaybı, hava
sirkülasyonlu fırına göre daha hızlı olmuştur. Susam tohumlarının renk
özellikleri kavurma yöntemlerinden önemli ölçüde etkilenmiştir. Sonuçlar
halojen ve mikrodalga kavurma işleminin, susam tohumlarında Salmonella ile ilişkili riski önemli
ölçüde azaltabileceğini göstermiştir. Ayrıca halojen ve mikrodalga uygulamaları,
hava sirkülasyonlu fırına kıyasla kavurma süresini önemli ölçüde azaltmıştır.
Investigation of the Effect of Honey Bee Pollination for Apple (Malus sylvestris (L.)Mill.) on Fruit Yield, Seed Number and Seed Germination Capacity
Authors: ÖZDEMİR Fethi Ahmet , KUTLU Mehmet Ali , GÜL Abdurrahman
Published: June 2019

Apple
is a self-incompatible fruit that is completely pollinated by cross
pollination. Honey- bees are particularly effective in cross pollination. The
aim of this study was to investigate the effect of pollination of apple by
honey bees on the fruit yield, average number of seeds and germination capacity
of the seeds. We observed that the average number of flowers in apple branches
open to pollination ranged from 10.18 ± 0.53 to 278.43 ± 0.73 while the average
number of flowers in apple branches close to pollination was between 8.07 ±
1.19 and 127.05 ± .057. The average duration of bee stay on apple flowers open
to pollination was in the range of 3.66 ± 0.09 to 8.64 ± 0.07 seconds. The
total number of fruits on the branches that were open to pollination was higher
than those of close to pollination. Likewise, the average number of seeds on
the branches open to pollination was higher than those of closed to
pollination. We also observed that the average germination of seeds obtained
from branches open to pollination was higher than the those of close to
pollination.

Bu çalışmada Türkiye ve
Trakya bölgesi ile Edirne, Kırklareli ve Tekirdağ illerinin tarımsal
mekanizasyon düzeyi göstergeleri hesaplanarak, 2008 – 2017 yılları arasındaki
mekanizasyon düzeyindeki değişim incelenmiş, iller arasında ve Türkiye ile
karşılaştırmalar yapılmıştır. Ayrıca trend analizi ile 2018 – 2023 yılları için
işlenen alana düşen traktör gücü tahmin edilmiştir. Son 10 yılda 1000 ha alana
düşen traktör sayısında Türkiye’de %27.9, Trakya bölgesinde %3.7, Edirne’de %13.9
ve Kırklareli’nde %6.1 oranında artış olurken, Tekirdağ’da %5.8 oranında azalma
mevcuttur. Bunun nedeni yıllar içerisinde Tekirdağ ilinde traktör sayısındaki
artış oranının, işlenen alandaki artış oranı kadar yüksek olmamasıdır.
Türkiye’de işlenen alana düşen traktör gücü sürekli artış eğilimde olup 2008
yılında 1.63 kW/ha iken 2017 yılında 2.12 kW/ha’dır. Trakya bölgesinde bu rakam
2008 yılında 2.62 kW/ha iken 2017 yılında 2.80 kW/ha’a yükselmiştir. 2008
yılında traktör başına alet/makine sayısı Türkiye’de 7.68, Trakya bölgesinde
9.18 iken, 2017 yılında Türkiye’de 7.26, Trakya bölgesinde 9.24’tür.  Edirne ve Kırklareli illerinde yıllar içinde
alet/makine sayısı, traktör sayısına göre daha fazla arttığından traktör başına
alet/makine sayısı artmaktadır. Trend analizi sonuçlarına göre işlenen alana
düşen traktör gücünün Trakya bölgesinde 2023 yılında 3.01 kW/ha olması tahmin
edilmiştir.
