Learning Analytics (LA) busca medir, coletar e analisar dados educacionais. Este campo de pesquisa cresceu rapidamente na última década, no entanto, estudos em diversos países mostram que a adoção de LA ainda é realizada principalmente em pequena escala e de forma isolada em nível administrativo das Instituições de Ensino Superior (IES). A adoção de LA em IES é considerada uma tarefa desafiadora no ambiente educacional, por sugerir mudanças na estrutura organizacional e abranger atividades em diversos setores do sistema de ensino. Assim, compreender o nível de maturidade dos projetos de LA existentes nas IES torna-se fundamental para que as instituições consigam ampliar seus projetos de forma gradativa e abranger todos os setores do sistema de ensino de forma eficiente. Visando alcançar essa compreensão, este trabalho apresenta um estudo exploratório sobre o nível de maturidade da LA nas IES das regiões do sul e sudeste brasileiro. Onde foi elaborado um instrumento de coleta de dados com questões adaptadas do estudo de Tsai, que busca compreender qual é o estado da arte em termos de adoção da LA nas IES em países europeus, e do modelo de maturidade MMALA. Com base nas respostas de 40 participantes responsáveis pelos dados das IES do sul e sudeste brasileiro, onde 19 destas IES possuem algum projeto de LA em andamento, foi possível constatar que a LA no Brasil é encontrada em pequena escala e poucas vezes em nível institucional. Das 40 IES pesquisadas em sete estados brasileiros, apenas 3 delas possuem alguma forma de LA implantada em nível institucional. Com relação ao nível de maturidade, de acordo com as áreas de processo do MMALA, as IES se encontram nos níveis ad-hoc (nível 1) ou inicial (nível 2), nas áreas de processo: Capacitação dos stakeholders; avaliação da eficácia das soluções; e apoio na interpretação dos resultados. No nível 2 ou níveis superiores nas áreas de processo: qualidade de dados; propriedade dos dados; comunicação; e legislação, privacidade e ética. E em nível estruturado (nível 3) nas áreas de processo de: aquisição de dados; e liderança. E entre os níveis estruturado (nível 3) e sistemático (nível 4) em: Infraestrutura; identificação e envolvimento dos stakeholders; e planejamento pedagógico das soluções. Em geral, podemos concluir que as IES do sul e sudeste brasileiros estão avançando nas áreas de processo do MMALA, porém, esse avanço ocorre de formas diferentes e em velocidades diferentes de acordo com cada instituição, fazendo com que a IES esteja em estágios iniciais em determinadas áreas do processo e em níveis mais avançados em outras.
Inklusion am Gymnasium: Vor- oder Nachteil im Wettbewerb um die Schlüsselressource Schüler:innen?
Authors: Rübben Ricarda K.
Published: February 2024

Mit der Ratifizierung der UN-Behindertenrechtskonvention und ihrer administrativen Auslegung sieht Deutschland für alle Bundesländer eine gemeinsame Beschulung von Schüler:innen mit und ohne sonderpädagogischem Förderbedarf an allgemeinen Schulen vor. Der vorliegende Beitrag widmet sich den bisher empirisch kaum erforschten Auswirkungen der Reform auf die Schulform des Gymnasiums am Beispiel von Nordrhein-Westfalen und betrachtet diese vor dem Hintergrund bestehender Wettbewerbs- und Konkurrenzverhältnisse zwischen Einzelschulen um Schüler:innen. Davon ausgehend, dass die elterliche Schulwahl eine multifaktorielle Entscheidung ist, bei der eine (nicht-)inklusive Schulprofilierung nur ein Kriterium darstellt, werden zum Abschluss Einstellungen zur Inklusion, zu Förderschwerpunkten sowie bildungspolitische Orientierungen von Eltern in Zusammenhang mit der Attraktivität (nicht-)inklusiver Gymnasien diskutiert.
Mobiles Arbeiten im Spannungsfeld von Autonomie und Schutz. Betriebsratsperspektiven auf die Veränderung der Arbeitswelt während der COVID-19-Krise
Authors: Flemming Jana
Published: February 2024

Der vorliegende Beitrag untersucht Neuerungen und damit einhergehende Spannungsfelder hinsichtlich der Ausweitung mobiler Arbeit im Zuge der COVID-19-Krise aus der Perspektive von Betriebsrät*innen in industriellen Branchen. Adressiert wird die Frage, mit welchen Einstellungen und Handlungsstrategien Betriebsrät*innen versuchen, den Einsatz orts- und zeitflexibler Arbeit zu regulieren. Die empirischen Befunde der explorativen Studie zeigen, dass diese sich hinsichtlich mobiler Arbeit in einem Spannungsfeld von Arbeitsschutz einerseits und den wandelnden Bedürfnissen der Beschäftigten nach Flexibilität und größeren Entscheidungsspielräumen andererseits befinden. Diesen mitunter gegenläufigen Ansprüchen begegnen sie mit Strategien, die in unterschiedlichem Ausmaß auf die Regulierung oder De-Regulierung mobiler Arbeit setzen. Es werden auch betriebspolitische Maßnahmen ergriffen, die den gesellschaftlichen Wandel von Arbeit berücksichtigen. Die unterschiedlichen Einstellungen der Betriebsrät*innen lassen zudem Annahmen über einen Zusammenhang mit der ökonomischen Situation des Unternehmens oder der Branche zu. Insgesamt zeigt sich, dass auf betrieblicher Ebene Flexibilitäts- und Autonomieansprüche der Beschäftigten an Legitimation gewinnen und sich dadurch die Einstellungen und Handlungsstrategien von Betriebsrät*innen in ihrer Scharnierfunktion zwischen Belegschaft und Management neu justiert.

Published: February 2024

Energy in one form or another has been and remains an essential vital element for humanity. It is positioned as the essential propellant for the accomplishment of any human activity. Its sources have diversified over time to meet the ever-increasing needs of industry and consumers. This chapter deals with the solar cell based on copper, indium, gallium, and diselenide (CIGS), which is a photovoltaic technology in constant evolution and demonstrates very interesting record yields. The aim is to show through the results obtained from the numerical simulation that the solar cells based on CIGS have the capacity in terms of energy conversion to meet part of the energy needs of the world population. In this chapter, after describing and modeling the Mo/Cu(In,Ga)Se2/CdS/ZnO structure, we noted from the obtained results that Shockley-Read-Hall (SRH) recombination is the predominant mode of recombination in the CIGS solar cell, and these recombinations more affect the performance of the solar cell inside the space charge region (SCR).

Protected Area Size Affecting Habitat Fragmentation: A Case Study of Protected Areas in Thailand
Authors: Jaroensutasinee Krisanadej , Jaroensutasinee Mullica , Chuachart Orranan , Sparrow Elena
Published: February 2024

Habitat fragmentation is a big threat to biodiversity because habitat fragmentation reduces the total patch area, isolates the patches, and increases the edge of patches. The objectives of this study were to investigate how protected area (PA) size affects habitat fragmentation and what caused habitat fragmentation in the PAs. The study focused on 180 PAs in Thailand, including 58 wildlife sanctuaries and 122 national parks. The land use/land cover data of Thailand were acquired from the Department of Land Development of Thailand and used to quantify forest habitat fragmentation in terms of the number of patches, patch density, proportion of forest, and clumpiness index. There were significant linear relationships between the total area and number of patches and between total area and patch density. Large PAs, with a total area larger than 1, 600 km2, had significantly lower patch density than medium and small PAs. However, 128 of the 180 PAs in Thailand were small-sized with high patch density due to agricultural expansion making up approximately 10% of the protected areas. Large PAs with a size of 1600 km2 or larger are preferable over small PAs in order to reduce habitat fragmentation and contribute to biodiversity conservation.
Classification and Clinical Features of Pulmonary Hypertension in Adults
Authors: Yasmin Farah , Umar Janjua Muhammad , Najeeb Hala , Aastha Pragya , Syed Muhammad Hayat , Sharma Munish , R. Surani Salim
Published: February 2024

This chapter explores the clinical manifestations and initial diagnostic findings associated with pulmonary hypertension (PHTN) at different stages. The definition of PHTN, as proposed in the 6th World Symposium, considers a mean pulmonary arterial pressure at rest (mPAP) of greater than 20 mmHg (previously 25 mmHg) and a pulmonary vascular resistance equal to or exceeding 3 WU. PHTN is clinically classified into five groups: Group 1 includes idiopathic, hereditary, and other forms; Group 2 comprises PHTN due to left heart disease; Group 3 consists of PHTN associated with pulmonary diseases or hypoxia; Group 4 pertains to PHTN caused by pulmonary artery obstruction; and Group 5 encompasses cases with unclear or multifactorial etiologies. The classification of PHTN into these groups holds significant clinical value as it contributes to determining survival rates and treatment responses. The chapter elaborates on the clinical features observed throughout various stages of PHTN and highlights the abnormalities detected during initial diagnostic assessments. The in-depth details will also be outlined in subsequent chapters of the book.

Pravěké a raně středověké osídlení Bartolomějského ostrova ve Veselí nad Moravou
Authors: Dejmal Miroslav , Hoch Aleš
Published: February 2024

Článek si klade za cíl zhodnotit pravěké a raně středověké nálezy, které byly učiněny v rámci záchranných archeologických výzkumů realizovaných na ploše Bartolomějského ostrova ve Veselí nad Moravou. Samotná plocha ostrova v řece Moravě byla osídlena již v době bronzové. Z této etapy byly zachyceny ojedinělé drobné zahloubené objekty a nálezy v druhotné poloze. V raném středověku se zde nacházelo sídliště doložené zejména několika stavbami pravděpodobně obytné funkce a jedním solitérním pohřbem. Obě sídliště jsou v rámci širšího okolí součástí poměrně intenzivního osídlení. Článek se snaží zkoumané lokality zasadit i do tohoto kontextu. Od 13. století zaujímala plochu ostrova osada, která se po polovině 14. století vyvinula v město. Právě plocha dnešního náměstí, bývalého tržiště, zakonzervovala starší situace.

Authors: Turhan Begümhan , Doğan Hilal , Maden Çağtay
Published: February 2024

Objective: The present study aimed to compare the results of a conservative physiotherapy (CP) protocol for subacromial impingement syndrome (SIS) in terms of the morphological types of acromion.
Methods: Fifty patients participated in the present study, and they were divided into 3 groups according to the acromion morphology types. A 8-week CP (4-week treatment period at the clinic and, in addition, an exercise program at home for 4 weeks) was applied to all patients. The patients were evaluated in terms of pain (at rest and activity) by the Visual Analog Scale, range of motion (ROM), joint position sense (laser pointer), muscle strength (digital dinamometer), and functionality (the Shoulder Pain and Disability Index, SPADI) before and after the treatment.
Result: In the pre- and post-treatment changes (delta), the shoulder flexion angle increased less in the type 3 group than in the type 1 and type 2 groups (p<0.05). In the shoulder abduction angle, there was a similar increase in the type 3 group compared to the type 2 group, while there was less increase in the type 1 group (p<0.05). It was determined that there was more deviation in the change value of shoulder abduction position sense in the type 3 group compared to the other groups (p<0.05). There was no difference between the groups in the change values of pain, muscle strength, or the SPADI score (p > 0.05).
Conclusion: Type 3 acromion may have a handicap in improving shoulder flexion and abduction ROM and shoulder abduction position compared to other types.

Nutrition education intervention: An effective tool for health promotion and primary prevention
Authors: Kočí Jana , Chvál Martin
Published: February 2024

Obesity and overweight of children are a major global problem nowadays. According to the Regional Office for Europe (2018), obesity has risen three times over the last two decades worldwide. The attention is currently focused on population-wide health promotion and disease prevention through comprehensive health education, starting in the early age of individuals, aimed at slowing down the increasing incidence of obesity and related health issues.
The purpose of this research was to design nutrition education intervention based on determined dietary habits and healthy nutrition knowledge of ninth graders from the elementary schools in the Czech Republic, who have completed the compulsory school attendance. The designed interventional program reflects current nutritional habits and knowledge about nutrition of Czech students and nutritional recommendations for the Czech population targeted to children, which also corresponds to the nutritional topics integrated into the National Health Curriculum Recommendations for Czech Elementary Schools.
A validated Nutritional survey (analyzing nutritional habits, attitudes towards proper nutrition and basic health nutrition skills) and Nutritional knowledge quiz (analyzing the level of knowledge related to nutrition for secondary school students) were designed to determine the relationship between knowledge and behavior of ninth grade students from elementary schools in the Czech Republic. The research group consisted of 1,028 ninth graders from 25 different elementary schools. Current nutritional habits and knowledge of Czech ninth graders were analysed and  the  Nutrition  Education  Program - a  comprehensive curriculum for teachers and set of educational and didactical materials for Czech elementary schools was designed based on the research findings. The program appears to be a suitable instrument for effective nutrition education and a popular tool for the organization of education among teachers. Designed Nutrition Education Program allows one’s knowledge, behavior and attitudes to be shaped in desired direction while letting students have fun and incorporate newly adopted behavioral patterns into their everyday lives.
Ethicotherapy and health education
Authors: Kornatovská Zuzana , Moučková Pavlína
Published: February 2024

The causes of health problems can be found in the violation of moral principles. Selfishness is considered as a major moral error, which is then negatively reflected in the bio-psycho-social connection with a person's health. The aim of the study is focused on the analysis of values and categories of ethics therapy in relation to health education. Methods of analysis, synthesis, induction and deduction were selected and applied to the method of grounded theory in the sense of studying the concept as the main category, as well as causal and operative thinking. It has been found that selfishness needs to be reduced through the dedication and generosity that can be learned through selfless work. Nutrition ethics is of great importance in the context of ethicotherapy and health education. It was concluded that ethicotherapy with moral treatment and focus in this direction makes sense in the field of health education and healthy lifestyle. Seminars, lectures, projects can be the preferred methods of school education in the field of health education and pedagogical practice.

Homeostasis and balance in senium
Authors: Krejčí Milada , Jandová Dobroslava
Published: February 2024

The body's homeostasis ensures the individual's survival in a constantly changing environment, such as changes and fluctuations of temperature, humidity, pressure, etc. The central nervous system and cardiovascular system play a priority in maintaining homeostasis. State of balance is closely related to the theory of homeostasis and homedynamics, where the term homeostasis is characterized as the tendency of the organism to a relatively stable balance between interdependent elements maintained by physiological processes. The study is aimed on content and descriptive analysis of the context of homeostasis, homeodynamics and bio-psycho-social balance in aging in frame of the GAČR project ID 17-25710S “Basic research of balance changes in seniors”. Methods of content and descriptive analysis were used as a base.  There is experimental evidence that various forms of stress, especially when severe or recurrent, can induce corresponding structural and neurochemical or neurophysiological changes in the neural and glial networks. It can be assumed that many of these stress-induced structural and functional changes in the CNS may cause the development of some neuropsychiatric disorders typical of old age. According to yoga practice, it is known that many of these changes are reversible with sufficient recovery time.

Walking through kindergarten semiotic landscapes with multilingual children: A way to explore participation and engagement
Authors: Fjeld Martin , Giæver Katrine
Published: February 2024

Practitioners in Norwegian kindergartens are responsible for actively promoting and developing multilingual children’s language skills (Directorate for Education and Training, 2017). Children’s multilingual language skills develop through participation and engagement. The aim of this paper is to explore how the semiotic landscape encourages interaction and dialogue among children. Semiotic landscapes are public spaces with visible inscriptions made through deliberate human intervention and meaning making (Jaworski & Thurlow, 2010). Utilizing walking interviews as a method, we explored multilingual children’s perspectives on their semiotic environment. Analyzing the interviews through the concept of agency (Duran, 2015), we found dialogues marked by engagement on different levels. We discuss the difference between predictability and unpredictability in semiotic resources and found that the latter leads to stronger engagement and longer dialogues than instructional materials with high level of predictability.

Published: February 2024

The review of population age pyramids in the EU-states brings a remark that all age pyramids take shape of a Christmas tree. Their shape is nearly identical to classic age pyramid ending of the progressive type, from the high of 2/3 life age, keeping constant periods of time (five-year periods in this case). It reflects, generally, an extension of the life expectancy. Up to the high of 2/3 life age, some are of the regressive distribution and other are of the stationary type - due to narrower or wider base of the pyramid, respectively. In case of EU-states there are two pyramid types: stationary-progressive and regressive-progressive.

Decolonizing 1968: Student Activisim and Beyond in Paris, Tunis, and Dakar
Authors: Hendrickson Burleigh
Published: February 2024

Decolonizing 1968 explores how activists in 1968 transformed university campuses across Europe and North Africa into sites of contestation where students, administrators, and state officials collided over definitions of modernity and nationhood after empire. Burleigh Hendrickson details protesters' versions of events to counterbalance more visible narratives that emerged from state-controlled media centers and ultimately describes how the very education systems put in place to serve the French state during the colonial period ended up functioning as the crucible of postcolonial revolt. Hendrickson not only unearths complex connections among activists and their transnational networks across Tunis, Paris, and Dakar but also weaves together their overlapping stories and participation in France's May '68. Using global protest to demonstrate the enduring links between France and its former colonies, Decolonizing 1968 traces the historical relationships between colonialism and 1968 activism, examining transnational networks that emerged and new human and immigrants' rights initiatives that directly followed. As a result, Hendrickson reveals that 1968 is not merely a flashpoint in the history of left-wing protest but a key turning point in the history of decolonization.

Picky eaters continue to pose challenges in providing additional food, hindering efforts to address child stunting. Thus, understanding the causes of picky eating in relation to maternal knowledge of health information about picky eaters, supplementary feeding management, and appetite herbs is crucial. This study aims to explore the correlation between knowledge of health information about picky eater, supplementary feeding, and the ability to manage food and herbal appetite in mothers of stunted children in Srimartani Village, Piyungan, Yogyakarta. Employing a cross-sectional survey design, the study involved 27 mothers (aged 23-42) of stunted children in October 2022. A research instrument comprising 21 questions was developed based on the concept of picky eating, adapted to the research context. Data analysis employed Kendall's tau_b statistical test to assess correlations. Stunting data were obtained from documented diagnoses at the local community health center, including malnourished toddlers and undernourished children. Findings revealed no correlation between knowledge of health information about picky eater and supplementary feeding, as well as between supplementary feeding and the ability to manage supplementary feeding and appetite herbs. However, a significant correlation was observed knowledge of health information about between picky eater and the ability to manage additional food and appetite herbs. In conclusion, higher picky eater knowledge was associated with better ability to manage additional food and appetite herbs, while knowledge of supplementary feeding did not show such a correlation. Further research with a more representative sample is recommended to provide a comprehensive understanding of the picky eater phenomenon

Published: February 2024

O contemporâneo trabalho explora o juiz das garantias no Brasil e apresenta as dificuldades na sua efetividade junto ao Poder Judiciário brasileiro. Portanto, antes de tudo, é importante estudar os sistemas processuais, tal como o inquisitivo e o acusatório, a partir do surgimento do Código de Processo Penal de 1941. Para tanto, essa pesquisa buscou examinar as dificuldades na efetivação dessa nova competência funcional, em cotejo ao que é praticado em outros países com realidades distintas da brasileira. Esse estudo proporcionará algumas soluções, reputando como primordial a implementação de forma gradual do juiz das garantias, isto é, inicia-se pelos grandes centros urbanos em seguida pelas regiões metropolitanas, e, por último nas pequenas comarcas de vara única. Não abrindo mão, das soluções apresentadas por um grupo de juristas ao Conselho Nacional de Justiça. Isto posto, judiciário brasileiro não sentirá impacto da nova competência funcional, o juiz das garantias.Palavras-chave: Sistema Penais. Inquisitório. Acusatório. Princípios Constitucionais.

Published: February 2024

A complexidade da atuação em casos de lavagem de dinheiro levou os órgãos a se especializarem em seus campos de atuação. E isto ocorreu também em outras matérias do Direito – tal qual o Direito Ambiental. Este necessário aprofundamento, porém, traz consigo o risco de perda da visão sistêmica da realidade e dos desafios enfrentados. Em atenção ao ensinamento de Luhmann, é preciso compreender que os diversos microssistemas do Direito possuem pontos de interseção. Com isto, conseguimos ampliar as ferramentas de detecção de ilicitudes, bem como de prevenção de irregularidades em todas as áreas, desde a ambiental até a lavagem de capitais.

My helper function to run ShinyStan without blocking is below: launch_shinystan_nonblocking <- function(fit) { library(future) plan(multisession) future( launch_shinystan(fit) #You can replace this with any other Shiny app ) } Hope that helps!

The SBC package - check your models before you wreck yourself
Authors: Modrák Martin
Published: February 2024

To celebrate a new paper out in Bayesian Analysis, let’s talk simulation-based calibration checking (SBC). SBC is a method where you use simulated datasets to verify that you implemented you model correctly and/or that your sampling algorithm work. It was introduced by Talts et al. and has been known and used for a while, but was considered to have a few shortcomings, which we try to address.
Prehospital care of injured patients in a mass casualty incidents
Authors: Jokšić-Mazinjanin Radojka , Bjelić Dragan , Jakšić Stefan , Rakić Goran
Published: February 2024

Mass accidents do not happen often, but when they do, they cause a significant disruption in the functioning of a society with a large number of casualties and an increased percentage of deaths among the injured. The aim of the work is to present the way of organization within the emergency medical aid service in the event of a mass accident. Numerous services are involved in caring for the injured, so their mutual cooperation is important, as is the functioning within each service. Depending on the type of event, the leader of the intervention should be from the service that is responsible for the nature of the event. He is in charge of organizing the entire intervention. All the services that participate in care have their own leader who communicates with the leader of the intervention. Within the Emergency Medical Service, the triage leader and the transport leader play an important role. The triage leader is in charge of primary triage. It uses simple triage algorithms to triage the injured according to the urgency of care in four categories in the shortest possible time. After primary triage, secondary triage and treatment of the injured is in process. Only necessary measures to stabilize the injured are taken during this phase. The transport of the injured takes place based on the priority and the type of transport that is needed. During the whole treatment process, the injured must be marked with triage cards. Based on them,we can later conduct the documentation: total number of injured, number of injured by triage categories, care measures taken, method and time of transport. In order for the services to provide the best care for injured in a mass accident, the existence of unique protocols at the level of one country is necessary. In addition to protocols, education and training of employees are necessary, not only in the emergency medical service, but in all services that participate in caring for the injured. Best way to do this is shared training of employees from several departments. Only in this way can the available resources be used in the most optimal way to take care of the largest number of injured people in the best possible way and in the shortest possible time.
Dissolution of parliament under the Constitution of the Republic of Serbia since 2006: Some open issues
Authors: Andrun Marko
Published: February 2024

This article covers four parts. In the first part of the paper, they are explained in the most important paragraphs of the powers to dissolve the parliament in order to form the basic theoretical framework of this constitutional mechanism of termination of the mandate of the parliament before the expiry of the mandate of its members, with special reference to its legal regulations in the Republic of Serbia. In the following parts of the paper, based on the previously established theoretical frameworks of the mechanism of dissolution of the parliament, it was pointed out the legal nature of the dissolved parliament and its limitations, and then discussed some open issues relating to the dissolved parliament in the Constitution of the Republic of Serbia since 2006 in order to give our opinion on the reasons for the dissolution of the parliament and what are the ongoing and urgent tasks that the dissolved parliament performs, what should be more clearly defined in some future revision of the constitution and laws in order to avoid in practice different interpretations and misinterpretations.

Foreign direct investments (FDI) represent one of the flows of international movement of capital that can affect positively and negatively the macroeconomic factors of development of the country of origin, as well as the host country. The Republic of Serbia has been attracting significant foreign direct investments in recent years, with its promotional legislation, natural and human resources, and strategic and market position, which is also visible in the reports and evaluations of the most eminent international organizations. In this regard, the objective of this paper is, in addition to a theoretical approach to the types and carriers of FDI, the advantages and disadvantages of the impact of FDI on the economic and social development of the country receiving investments, to investigate the views of foreign investors themselves on their motives for investing in Serbia. In this respect, for the purpose of elaborating the hypothesis about the diversity of influence and investment motives of foreign investors, an empirical study was carried out on a sample of 53 FDI companies from the territory of the entire Serbia in 2022. The results showed that the primary motives for FDI in Serbia are: The possibility of exporting to other markets, political relations between the investor's country and the country receiving the investment, and subsidies and incentives for employment. The results of the research in this paper can be useful to decision-makers on the improvement of the legal and business framework for attracting direct investments to Serbia, as well as the educational, technological and innovative infrastructure in motivating FDI for investments in high technology sectors so that their impact on the macroeconomic development of the country would have a greater added value.

Authors: Bojičić Radica , Tripković Anđelka , Mladenović Maja
Published: February 2024

Due to natural potentials and resources that nature has bestowed upon them, the people in the province of Kosovo and Metohija are largely committed to agricultural production of various types of fruits, vegetables, grains, medicinal plants, as well as livestock production. This paper strives to, based on the research conducted, analyze and compare agricultural activities in certain majority-Serb municipalities in the north and south of Kosovo and Metohija, as well as to consider the possibilities and willingness of farmers to reorient the entire production process from conventional to organic. Furthermore, suggestions and recommendations were made with respect to what could be done to promote green agricultural production, while at the same time overcoming numerous challenges related to the daily life and work of people in these areas.
Decarbonizing the margarine production process with rooftop photovoltaics and cogeneration
Authors: Gordić Dušan , Nikolić Jelena , Josijević Mladen , Aleksić Aleksandar , Vukašinović Vladimir
Published: February 2024

he paper proposes a methodology for defining the optimal solution for the integrated usage of cogeneration and rooftop photovoltaics. The purpose is to minimize CO₂ emissions in industrial plants. The methodology is founded on the integral use of energy audit techniques (analyzing energy and material flows in a production process and the dependence of electricity and heat consumption on a production volume) and mathematical optimization (linear programming). In accordance with the obtained consumption profiles, technical limitations, and legal regulations, the potential for installing rooftop photovoltaic (PV) panels at appropriate locations and the implementation of appropriate cogeneration technologies were analysed. The proposed methodology was tested on a local margarine production facility. The integrated application of cogeneration (gas engines) and photovoltaics can reduce the current CO₂ emission by 56% if PV panels are installed on the entire accessible rooftop surface, i.e. up to 44.5% if 150 kW PV panels are installed as the new national regulation proposes.
Influence of corn and soybean prices on broiler prices

Published: February 2024

Given the crucial role of corn and soybeans in formulating poultry feed, this research delves into the interplay of prices between broilers chickens, corn, and soybeans. The primary objective of this study is to ascertain the influence of the previous year's corn and soybean prices on the current year's broiler chicken prices, employing a multiple linear regression model. The findings of the regression model reveal that an increase in the prices of corn and soybeans has a positive correlation with broilers prices. In simpler terms, as the prices of these two essential feed components rose in the previous year, a corresponding increase in broiler prices is anticipated in the current year. It's worth highlighting that the statistical analysis identifies only the influence of corn as statistically significant, while the impact of soybeans is deemed statistically non-significant. An increase in the price of corn in the previous year by 1 dinar will cause an increase in the price of broilers by 3,766 dinars/kilogram in the current year.
