DÜNYA TİCARET ÖRGÜTÜ ÜYELİĞİ, DIŞ TİCARET VERGİLERİ VE TÜRKİYE UYGULAMASI
Authors: BATIREL Ömer Faruk
Published: October 2016

Bu makalenin amacı Dünya Ticaret Örgütü (DTÖ) üyeliğinin tüketim vergi gelirleri bileşimi üzerindeki etkisini analiz eden bir çalışmaya atıf yaparak Türkiye’de DTÖ üyeliği sonrası mal ve hizmet vergi bileşiminde meydana gelen gelişmeleri sınamaktır. Çalışmada 1990-2011 döneminde başlıca 97 gelişmekte olan ve sosyalizmden kapitalizme geçiş yapan ülkede mal ve hizmet bileşiminin analizinde DTÖ üyeliği sonrası vergi bileşiminde gümrük vergilerinin ağırlığını azaldığı saptanmıştır. Buna ek olarak ithalde alınan KDV’nin gümrük vergisini ikame eder biçimde telafi edici bir rol oynadığı da doğrulanan bir varsayım olmuştur. AB gümrük birliği, bölgesel ticaret ve serbest ticaret anlaşmalarına taraf olan Türkiye için aynı dönem itibariyle yapılan sınamada gümrük vergilerinin pay düşüşü ve bunun ithalde alınan KDV ile telafi edildiği varsayımları doğrulanmıştır.

Background

The present study assessed the impact of the retrieval of >25 lymph nodes (LNs) on the survival outcome of patients with advanced gastric cancer after curative-intent gastrectomy.

Patients and Methods

A total of 5,386 patients who had undergone curative gastrectomy for gastric cancer from 1994 to 2011 were enrolled. The clinicopathological parameters and overall survival (OS) were analyzed according to the number of LNs examined (≤15, n = 916; 16–25, n = 1,458; and >25, n = 3,012).

Results

The percentage of patients with >25 LNs retrieved increased from 1994 to 2011. Patients in the LN >25 group were more likely to have undergone total gastrectomy and to have a larger tumor size, poorer tumor differentiation, and advanced T and N stages. Hospital mortality among the LN ≤15, LN 16–25, and LN >25 groups was 6.1%, 2.7%, and 1.7%, respectively (p < .0001). The LN >25 group consistently exhibited the most favorable OS, in particular, with stage II disease (p = .011) when OS was stratified according to tumor stage. Similarly, the LN >25 group had significantly better OS in all nodal stages (from N1 to N3b). The discrimination power of the lymph node ratio (LNR) for the LN ≤15, LN 16–25, and LN >25 groups was 483, 766, and 1,560, respectively. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that the LNR was the most important prognostic factor in the LN >25 group.

Conclusion

Retrieving more than 25 lymph nodes during curative-intent gastrectomy substantially improved survival and survival stratification of advanced gastric cancer without compromising patient safety.
Experimental and analytical study on load paths of RC squat walls with openings
Authors: Qian Kai , Li Bing , Liu Yi
Published: October 2016

Two series of experimental tests on reinforced concrete (RC) squat walls with irregular openings were analysed. The experimental evidence indicated that flanges significantly affect the failure modes, initial stiffness, ultimate strength and deformation capacity. Given the complexity of the stress distribution in walls with irregular openings, strut-and-tie models are generally used in design and analysis to explicitly demonstrate the shear force transfer and load distribution paths. A comparison of experimental data with analytical results from the existing strut-and-tie model indicated that the latter may underestimate the ultimate strength by 51%. Although the strut-and-tie model is a lower-bound solution, the underestimation of 51% is still very large and may lead to unfavourable shear failure. An improved strut-and-tie model was thus developed, based on test observations. The improved strut-and-tie model can provide a more accurate prediction for the ultimate strength of walls with irregular openings. Based on the model, design recommendations and suggestions for reinforcement details in RC walls with irregular openings are also presented.

Abstract.Getting to grandparents is one of the vital experiences that will make us live a new stage in our lives. But it is also a situation that some people are not prepared and therefore do not take it with the same philosophy.Some people think to have grandchildren makes them "old" while others / think is a reborn, recover enthusiasm and energy.This essentially practical workshop brings to the undecided and also a little afraid or uncomfortable because it forces them to change the order of their lives, strategies to deal with their new stage with positivity.It first offered a theoretical information about the evolution of children and based on how they learn and guidelines to act.Giving importance to aspects of transmission of values, the complicity with the grandchildren and awareness about belonging to the "tribe" as an educational entity. Belonging to this tribe gives them the possibility of participating fully in society.This 'active ageing' means understand this stage of life as one cycle of personal growth, adding "life years and not years to life".Key words: ageing, tribe, complicity, ethical valuesResumen.Llegar a abuelos/as es una de las experiencias vitales que nos hará vivir una etapa nueva en nuestras vidas.

Therefore, the aim of this work is to identify whether there is a set of latent variables that allow explain the anxiety toward math on students at Instituto Tecnológico de Tuxtepec, Oaxaca. The study is quantitative; and the study sample was formed of 303 college students from several profiles of the social sciences and engineering areas. The instrument utilized, is the scale of Munoz and Mato (2007) and was applied face to face to sample of study, in order to get data that allow us measure mathematics anxiety. The results show that students consider about the exposed variables that, the most prominent variable is the anxiety toward mathematics when faced in real life situations. The results allow us to observe that the studied variables explained 81% of variance that explains the math anxiety; the remaining 19% is explained by other variables that have not been considered in this research. Hence, if the student increases their anxiety in one of those, for example toward compression of mathematical problems, other variables also increase as the results show that there is a direct relationship between them.Keywords: Anxiety, Mathematics, Attitude toward mathematics, mathematics evaluationResumen.Los conocimientos matemáticos son de suma importancia en la vida de las personas, por lo tanto en la actualidad es necesario entender y hacer buen uso de las matemáticas en la vida diaria.

Published: October 2016

This study analyzed the policy agenda setting process of the integrated resort development policy in Japan. The literature that was reviewed covered the concept of IR development policy, the policy agenda setting process, as well as reviewing previous research. This study employed Yin’s case study method. The major findings of this study are as follows: 1) the 1st period policy agenda setting was affected by economic factors and the governor of Tokyo. This social issue was directly transformed into a policy agenda and the setting type was a mobilization model. This policy agenda setting ultimately failed. 2) he 2nd period policy agenda setting was affected by political and international factors as well as the Prime Minister of Japan. This social issue was transformed into a policy agenda and the setting type was a combination of mobilization and an inside access model. As a result of all these factors, a policy agenda was established. Theoretically, this study constructed a logical model for analyzing the policy agenda setting process while utilizing a foreign case study. Practically, the importance of the public agenda stage in agenda setting process was emphasized.
Measuring a Visitor’s Authenticity at an UNESCO World Heritage Site
Authors:   The Tourism Sciences Society Of Korea, Nam Yun-Hee , Um Seo-Ho
Published: October 2016

Authenticity has been recognized as having a primary role in world heritage tourism and it has included very complex and multiple meanings. This study developed measurement scales capturing multi-dimensionality of authenticity at a world heritage destination. The study was conducted throughout March, 2016 at Andong Hahoe Folk Village in South Korea with 278 valid data sets being obtained. Survey Questionnaires were designed to measure two different processes of authenticity: 1) ‘output’ which represents a visitor’s perception of tour performance and 2) ‘outcome’ which represents visitor’s perception of a tour result. The findings of this study showed that authenticity was divided into both an objective authenticity related to the tour objective and an existential authenticity based on a tourists’ experience at the destinations. In addition, authenticity was constructed and measured according to the aspects of both the ‘output’ and ‘outcome’ of a tour process. While ‘uniqueness’ was found to be the output of an objective authenticity, ‘realistic perception’ was found to be the outcome of an objective authenticity. Existential authenticity included ‘assimilation’ and ‘self-discovery’ respectively. The results of a multiple regression analysis showed that ‘uniqueness’, ‘realistic perception’, ‘assimilation’ and ‘self-discovery’ have significant effects on the intention to revisit the site. ‘Realistic perception’ and ‘self-discovery’ were both especially derived as an outcome, as they had greater effects on the intention to revisit. This study provides both an empirically valid scale for authentic measurement and a practical tool for visitor management at world heritage destinations.
The Effects of Internal Marketing by Institutional Food Service Companies on Customer Value Co-creation Behaviors
Authors:   The Tourism Sciences Society Of Korea, Kim Byeong Yong
Published: October 2016

The following research suggests that internal marketing activities are key factors promoting customer value co-creation behaviors. This result was found empirically investigating the relationships among internal marketing activities, customer participation behaviors(CPB) and customer citizenship behaviors(CCB). This research investigated how internal marketing activities affected both CPB and CCB, and subsequently how these behaviors affected customer satisfaction (CS). Dayadic research was performed by using both dieticians from institutional food service companies (survey for internal marketing activities) and customers eating meals provided by institutional food service companies.(survey for CPB, CCB, and CS). Survey questionnaires were used to collect data from 222 dieticians and 222 customers throughout March of 2016. Results showed that internal marketing activities were affected significantly by both CPB and CCB, which in turn affected CS. Suggestions were made based on this research findings.

Authors:   The Tourism Sciences Society Of Korea, Kong Hye-Jin , Chong Yu-Kyeong
Published: October 2016

This study examined how purchase intention of customers was affected by different types of scarcity messages on the home shopping channel. The current study thus aims to provide for TV home shopping marketers to use appropriate impactful scarcity messages to better sell processed foods. Survey questionnaires were distributed to home shopping customers in the capital area from April 29th to May 5th, 2016. Out of 240 questionnaires, 205 questionnaires were used for further analysis except 35 that had no purchase experience. The results showed that a time-limited-scarcity message brings concerns of exhaustion in the products as time pressure is applied and also increases purchase intention. When consumers are exposed to quantity-limited-scarcity messages saying that other consumers are purchasing the products, they become concerned that purchase opportunities of the product could be reduced and purchase intention are also increased accordingly. When there were six minutes of TV home shopping airtime left and a message of 3,000 sets sold went on the air, consumers felt that they needed to purchase. In this case, both time-limited-scarcity messages and quantity-limited-scarcity messages influenced purchase intentions. In conclusion, home shopping marketers could apply the results of this study to maximize their persuasive effect using scarcity messages. Finally, limitations of this research and future directions were discussed.

Potencialidad género-transformativa de las políticas públicas. El caso de los permisos por nacimiento en Europa
Authors: Castro García Carmen
Published: October 2016

El presente artículo aborda algunos aspectos sobre cómo las 'normas o expectativas sociales' construidas desde el arraigo en la diferenciación sexual pueden ser alentadas o diluidas según cual sea la orientación de las políticas públicas, de ahí la importancia de considerar la potencialidad género-transformativa de las políticas públicas, entendiendo esta característica como la previsión del impacto que tendrán sobre la 'norma social' de género construida a través de la división sexual del trabajo. El foco de interés para este análisis lo constituye la reflexión sobre en qué medida la orientación de las propuestas de acción política considera la implicación de los hombres en el cuidado de la vida y cómo se relaciona su contribución con la dilución o refuerzo de la división sexual del trabajo. Para atender a este cometido se realiza un análisis comparado de las políticas de permisos por nacimiento (maternidad, paternidad, parental) en 27 países europeos, como pieza desde la que intervenir para propiciar un reparto equitativo, entre mujeres y hombres, de los usos del tiempo e implicaciones de la atención y el cuidado tras el nacimiento de un/a hijo/a. Las evidencias encontradas muestran que no todas  las configuraciones del sistema de permisos por nacimiento tienen potencialidad para influir en la división sexual del trabajo en el mismo sentido; hay combinaciones de elementos normativos que favorecen cambios en el orden de género, es decir, con potencialidad género-transformativa positiva; otras combinaciones, en cambio, se asientan precisamente en las normas sociales de género, reforzándolas aún más.
Presentación del monográfico 'Economía Feminista'
Authors: Castro García Carmen
Published: October 2016

La economía feminista representa una ventana abierta a la reflexión, investigación y acción política respecto a los ejes de crítica feminista más relevantes sobre la economía dominante. En este sentido, la crítica abarca diferentes dimensiones y niveles que se interrelacionan entre sí, desde aspectos macro y estructurales del sistema global, a los efectos sobre las condiciones de vida de mujeres y hombres y también respecto a otras crisis, como la de cuidados, la ecológica o la democrática.Un importante foco de interés radica en hacer emerger desde la perspectiva de género, el entramado de las relaciones de poder desigual y su influencia en los mercados de trabajo, en los cuidados y en el reparto de tiempos que mujeres y hombres destinan a la producción y reproducción social. A esta línea de trabajo responden las lecturas feministas respecto a los ciclos de crisis económicas en general y respecto a las políticas de ajuste desarrolladas con la excusa de la “gran crisis” que nos atraviesa desde 2007/2008.El enfoque transformacional está implícito en todas las dimensiones de la crítica feminista, si bien se recoge de manera explícita en algunos planteamientos  sobre cambio de modelo de sociedad. El objetivo de la sostenibilidad de la vida como prioridad de las políticas públicas emerge, confluyendo con otras perspectivas altermundistas respecto al cuestionamiento de las relaciones patriarcales.El necesario diálogo entre las alternativas y aproximaciones que se aportan desde la economía feminista pivota sobre una diversidad de ejes, entre los que la persistencia o dilución de la división sexual del trabajo tiene un lugar preferente. La orientación de las políticas públicas y la práctica de institucionalizar el enfoque de la igualdad de género son vistas, por parte de la crítica feminista, como instrumentos de utilidad para un proceso transformación del orden social de género impuesto.Este primer número de la revista ATLÁNTICAS incluye un monográfico sobre Economía Feminista que muestra, en su conjunto, un relato de la situación y perspectivas más significativas.
De las actualmente llamadas “políticas de igualdad de género” a la eliminación de la división sexual del trabajo (DST)
Authors: Pazos Morán María
Published: October 2016

Las llamadas "políticas de igualdad" no compensan a las mujeres ni tienen un impacto significativo sobre la brecha de género porque no actúan sobre la causa, que no es otra que la división sexual del trabajo (DST). Al abordar cada aspecto de la desigualdad como un fenómeno aislado, dificultan la comprensión del problema y su solución.Sin embargo, la DST no es natural ni inevitable. Al contrario, tenemos suficientes evidencias para trazar el camino hacia su eliminación. Para ello, basta con ofrecer a las mujeres las condiciones materiales para poder incorporarse al empleo de calidad y a los hombres los derechos para incorporarse al cuidado.

Las mujeres ante el cambio constitucional. Algunos apuntes desde una perspectiva feminista para una “reforma constituyente” de la Constitución Española
Authors: Esquembre Cerdá Mar
Published: October 2016

A pesar de que los avances en igualdad de mujeres y hombres han sido el gran cambio social desde la aprobación de la Constitución española, entre los temas sobre la reforma constitucional que trascienden en el debate político y social está prácticamente ausente la perspectiva feminista. Un cambio constitucional desde esta perspectiva implica una “reforma constituyente” como resultado de la consideración de dos cuestiones claves: las consecuencias de la división público-privado de los espacios donde se producen y reproducen las distintas relaciones humanas, y el reconocimiento de la subjetividad política y jurídica de las mujeres.
Prereferral Process with Latino English Language Learners with Specific Learning Disabilities: Perceptions of English-as-a-Second-Language Teachers
Authors: Ferlis Emily , Xu Yaoying
Published: October 2016

This study explored perceptions of English-as-a-second-language (ESL) teachers on the prereferral process for Latino English language learners (ELLs). Using Colaizzi’s (1978) phenomenological approach, qualitative data were collected through interviews with four ESL teachers. Analyses of the data indicated that the ESL teachers used research-based interventions and progress-monitoring in the prereferral process with Latino ELLs. Data analysis also indicated negative participant perceptions of parental and school-level influence on the identification process.  Key concerns about the identification of Latino ELLs with specific learning disabilities (SLD) are presented, raising questions about current practices in school districts with small ELL populations.
Using Ecological Asset Mapping to Investigate Pre-Service Teachers’ Cultural Assets
Authors: Borrero Noah , Yeh Christine
Published: October 2016

We examined the impact of a pedagogical strategy, ecological asset mapping, on 19 pre-service teachers’ self-exploration, development of respect for others, and critical examination of social injustice. Data were analyzed from participants’ ecological asset maps and essays describing the experience of completing and sharing the maps. The analysis of the maps generated two themes, transitions over time and multiple identities whereas four themes emerged from the essays such as navigating support systems, self consciousness, process as pedagogy, and consciousness raising. Findings suggest ecological asset mapping can be a powerful pedagogical tool in supporting pre-service teachers’ self-awareness, respect for others, exploration of cultural assets, and development of critical consciousness.
Immigrant Parents’ Perspectives on Early Childhood Education and Care Practices in the Finnish Multicultural Context
Authors: Lastikka Anna-Leena , Lipponen Lasse
Published: October 2016

Although the number of immigrant families is increasing in Finland, the research on their perspectives on early childhood and care (ECEC) services is scarce. The objective of this small-scale case study was to increase the understanding of immigrant families’ perspectives on ECEC practices. Through the qualitative content analysis of interview-based data, four themes emerged as particularly important for working with immigrant families: (a) fostering dialogue and mutual understanding; (b) promoting cultural and linguistic diversity; (c) encouraging cooperative partnership; and (d) providing support and individualized attention. This study contributes to the development of more inclusive and supportive ECEC practices in order to better support families with immigrant backgrounds.
Evaluation of Healing at Molar Extraction Sites With and Without Ridge Preservation: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial
Authors: Walker Christopher J. , Prihoda Thomas J. , Mealey Brian L. , Lasho David J. , Noujeim Marcel , Huynh‐Ba Guy
Published: October 2016

Background: To date, limited evidence is available specifically evaluating ridge preservation (RP) and implant placement in molar sites. The primary aim of this study is to radiographically compare alveolar ridge changes with and without RP with cone‐beam computed tomography (CBCT).

Methods: This parallel, two‐arm randomized clinical trial included 40 patients evenly distributed between two treatment groups. After molar extraction, sites were allowed to heal naturally or received RP with freeze‐dried bone allograft covered by a non‐resorbable dense polytetrafluoroethylene membrane. CBCT scans were taken immediately and 3 months postextraction, and then a dental implant was placed. Width and height measurements were made radiographically.

Results: Significantly greater loss in alveolar ridge height was found in molar sites allowed to heal without RP on the buccal aspect of the socket (RP: −1.12 ± 1.60 mm versus no RP: −2.60 ± 2.06 mm, P = 0.01). No significant difference in ridge width loss was found between groups. Two‐thirds ridge width reduction was experienced on the buccal aspect in sites without RP, but width loss was evenly distributed between buccal and lingual aspects when RP was performed. Bone grafting at time of placement was required in 25% of implants in the group without RP versus 10% of implants in the RP group.

Conclusions: In molar extraction sites without RP, significantly more reduction in ridge height occurred, and the majority of ridge width loss was localized to the buccal aspect. When RP was performed, ridge width loss was not significantly decreased, but the loss was evenly distributed between facial and lingual aspects of the extraction site.

Abū Al-Ḥasan Muḥammad bin Yūsuf Al-‘Āmirī’s View on Religion
Authors: Zuhri H
Published: October 2016

One of the thinkers on religion in Islamic philosophical discourse is Abū al-Ḥasan Muḥammad bin Yūsuf al-‘Āmirī (d. 381/933).  His thoughts, written in al-i‘lām bi manāqib al-Islām as magnum opus for his intellectual carrier, have been identified as an ideal prototype of classical and rational religious studies. Before exploring the principles of religions, his first step was that he introduced the importance of knowledge of milliya or religiosities’ perspective for reading phenomena of religion.  Apologetical-reflective was the common method used by al-‘Āmirī  to read Islam and other religions. This method does not intend to disrespect or wrong other religions but it is as a tool to identify identity as well as distinguish Islam from other religions. However, al-‘Āmirī realised that epistemological, historic, or praxis problems in religion facts, including Islam, become homework for the next generation.

High-Speed Visual Analysis of Fluid Flow and Heat Transfer in Oscillating Heat Pipes with Different Diameters
Authors: Liu Xiangdong , Sun Qing , Zhang Chengbin , Wu Liangyu
Published: October 2016

The oscillating heat pipe (OHP) is a new member in the family of heat pipes, and it has great potential applications in energy conservation. However, the fluid flow and heat transfer in the OHP as well as the fundamental effects of inner diameter on them have not been fully understood, which are essential to the design and optimization of the OHP in real applications. Therefore, by combining the high-speed visualization method and infrared thermal imaging technique, the fluid flow and thermal performance in the OHPs with inner diameters of 1, 2 and 3 mm are presented and analyzed. The results indicate that three fluid flow motions, including small oscillation, bulk oscillation and circulation, coexist or, respectively, exist alone with the increasing heating load under different inner diameters, with three flow patterns occurring in the OHPs, viz. bubbly flow, slug flow and annular flow. These fluid flow motions are closely correlated with the heat and mass transfer performance in the OHPs, which can be reflected by the characteristics of infrared thermal images of condensers. The decrease in the inner diameter increases the frictional flow resistance and capillary instability while restricting the nucleate boiling in OHPs, which leads to a smaller proportion of bubbly flow, a larger proportion of short slug flow, a poorer thermal performance, and easier dry-out of working fluid. In addition, when compared with the 2 mm OHP, the increasing role of gravity induces the thermosyphon effect and weakens the 'bubble pumping' action, which results in a little smaller and bigger thermal resistances of 3 mm OHP under small and bulk oscillation of working fluid, respectively.

Metallic elements of higher economic value occurring in the mineralogy of Zimapán are Pb, Zn, Cu and Fe, said elements are sold as concentrates, which, even after processing, generally include significant concentrations of Mo, Cd, Sb, Ag and As that could recover through different leaching methods. In this work the influence of temperature was studied in the complexation of silver in the S2O32--O2 system. Chemical and mineralogical characterization of concentrated Zn from the state of Hidalgo confirmed the presence of the silver contained in a sulfide of silver arsenic (AgAsS2) through the techniques of Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy-Energy-Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy (SEM-EDS).

Authors: Doewes Afrizal
Published: October 2016

EPortfolio becomes more widely accepted nowadays and has more flexible and various way to be created in various systems such asMahara andPebblePad. The need to move user’s account data from one system to another in an efficient way becomes more important. To fulfill the need, a small community of system developers has created Leap2A, a simple specification for transferring data between e-portfolio systems and tools. Leap2A has been successfully implemented in the ePortfolio solutions. However, working with ePortfolio still depends on the availability of internet access and in a web based environment. The mobile users will need some more solutions which they can work with their ePortfolio anytime and anywhere.
The purpose of this paper is to create a mobile application for displaying, modifying, and creating ePortfolio based on Leap2a file as an alternative solution. Leap2A file was exported from one ePortfolio system and the content was extracted and analyzed. The users should be able to open and manipulate the information in the Leap2A file using the application, which later should be imported again to the ePortfolio System without problem and without losing their information. The testing showed that the application could open, display, and manipulate user’s information contained in Leap2A file. Additional feature was the ability to create new ePortfolio for the user who do not have ePortfolio yet. Both the modified and generated Leap2A file could be imported to ePortfolio system successfully.

The research was done to study the potential of ketepeng leaf meal and lemuru fish oil as agents to reduce methane production. The composition of feed supplements, lamtoro leave meal (LLM), urea (U) and mollases (M) were in different ratios: 1:5, 1:6 and 1:7 and ketepeng leaf meal (DKM) and lemuru fish oil (MIL). The feed supplement was added to the native grass as a basal diet, P1: U: M = 1:5, DKM, P2: U: M = 1:5, MIL, P3: U: M = 1:6, DKM, P4: U: M = 1:6, MIL, P5: U: M = 1:7, DKM, P6: U: M = 1:7, MIL. Research was done with in vitro gas technique. Inoculum was taken from rumen fluid of a fistulated male cow, which was taken before feeding in the morning. Rumen fluid pH did not significantly different, indicating the microbial fermentation in rumen run well and normally were not affected by the treatment. The VFA production of P5 and P6 was significantly lower than P1, P2, P3 and P4 (P <0.05). Production of C2 and C3 were relatively the same except for P6 (P <0.05) which relative higher. Ratio of C2/C3 and inversely related C3, when C3 production increased the C2/C3 ratio decreased (P <0.05). Methane production of P6 was higher but did not different with P4 and P5. It can be concluded that diet which produced low methane was the native grass supplemented with urea and molases at ratio 1: 5 contained either ketepeng leaf meal or lemuru fish oil.

The experiment was conducted to evaluate the nutritional value of ground peanut straw, king grass and corn forage and their ability to provide nutrients for livestock in terms of rumen fermentation. Three rumen-fistulated PO cattles were used to investigate rumen fermentation parameter (pH, NH3,VFA).  The cattles were fed ground peanut straw (PS), king grass (KG) and corn forage (CF) ad libitum as single feed. The values of rumen fermentation parameters were analyzed using Analysis of Variance of Completely Randomized Design. The result showed that rumen pH, and of cattle fed with PS, KG and CF were 6.94, 6.68 and 6.71, NH3 concentrations 13.71, 6.85 and 4.37mg/100ml, and total VFA concentrations 48.99, 70.17 and 51.59 mmol/l, respectively.  Values of pH and NH3 concentration were significantly different (p<0.05) among treatments, meanwhile VFA concentration were not significantly different. Ground peanut straw resulted the highest rumen fermentation parameters.

ABSTRACT
 

            An experiment was carried out to investigate the efficiency of dietary energy utilisation in Ongole Grade (OG) and OG x Limousin (OGL) young bulls under intensive feeding regime. This experiment used 4 OG and 4 OGL young bulls (about 6 months old). The initial body weight of OG was 78±4.69 kg (CV=6.01%), and that of OGL was 91.25±12.62 kg (CV=13.80%). This experiment used “Independent Sample Comparison” method. Parameters observed were energy intake, energy digestibility, energy metabolisability, live weight gain and energy conversion. The results showed that dry matter (DM) intake of  OG PO (26.87 g/ kg BB) was lower (P<0.05) than that of OGL (33.05 g/ kg BB/d); so that energy intake of OG (0.43 MJ/kg BB/d) was also lower (P<0,05) than that of OGL (0.55MJ/kg BB/d). However, were not significant difference (P>0.05) between the two breeds in all other parameters observed. Dietary energy digestibility’s in OG and OGL were 52.60 and 52.20%, respectively. Energy metabolisability’s in OG and OGL were 44.30 and 42.90%, respectively. Live weight gain of were 0.325 and 0.412 kg/d in OG and OGL, respectively Energy conversions in OG and OGL were 46.44 and 55.90 MJ per kilogram live weight gain. It was concluded that OG and OGL young bulls under intensive feeding regime had similar performance in energy utilisation.
