Authors: Boga Bekir
Published: January 2025

Alacakların teminat altına alınmasının en etkili yolu olarak mevzuatımızda birçok rehin türüne yer verilmiştir. Her rehin türünün kendine has özellikleri, bunların kötüye kullanılması bakımından da farklı yöntemlerin ortaya çıkmasına neden olmaktadır. Rehin ilişkisinin suistimali ile taraflardan birisinin zarara uğratılması durumunda ceza hukuku korumasının devreye girme ihtimali bulunmaktadır. Özellikle ticari hayatın güven içerisinde devam ettirilmesi için bazı durumlarda ceza hukuku sorumluluğunun öngörülmesi mecburidir. Rehin ilişkisi üzerinden alacaklının borçluya veya borçlunun alacaklıya zarar verdiği durumlar ceza hukuku sistemimizde sınırlı olarak cezalandırılmaktadır. Bu çalışmada öncelikle rehin türlerinin kendilerine özgü özellikleri detaylı bir şekilde ele alınmaktadır. Daha sonra rehin ilişkilerinin suistimal edilmesi ihtimalleri belirlenmekte, bu ihtimallerin mevzuatımızdaki düzenlemeler marifetiyle cezalandırılabilirliği tartışılmaktadır. Böylelikle mevzuatımızın rehin ilişkisi bağlamında ortaya çıkan sorunların ceza hukuku ile çözümlenmesi bakımından boşlukları tespit edilmekte ve mevcut düzenlemelerin kritiği yapılmaktadır.

Authors: Huda Farooq Jameel
Published: January 2025

People who work from home or in offices typically sit at a computer for most of their workday, often sitting with bad posture. Therefore, the decision was made to develop chairs to find a solution for the medical problems that arise from sitting for long periods during work. The intended audience for the chair includes office workers, students, and homemakers. Gamers who spend a lot of time sitting in their chairs could benefit from the technology. This research aims to solve the problem of unhealthy sitting. The hardware configuration includes a DC motor, power supply, microcontroller, ultrasonic sensor, buzzer, and a chair. The software configuration uses Arduino software to evaluate the system's overall accuracy. Four categorization models are used: true positive, false positive, true negative, and false negative. The system development process has been exceptionally successful, achieving a total accuracy of approximately 97.434%. For future work, it is expected to increase the accuracy of the system with an IR sensor and speaker to alert the user.

Authors: Lanyasunya Ropilo
Published: January 2025

This study aimed to examine the school-related factors influencing students' performance in the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) in public secondary schools in Samburu County, with a focus on understanding the challenges in nomadic pastoralist areas. Despite improvements in Kenya’s secondary education sector, including increased enrollment and infrastructure development, academic performance in Samburu County remains consistently low. The average KCSE score for the period 2001–2010 was 4.4 (D+), far below other regions like Nairobi, indicating significant educational challenges. The study employed a mixed-methods approach, collecting data through structured questionnaires from Form 4 school leavers and high school principals. The research specifically focused on school-related factors such as the existence of academic performance policies, school facilities, and school fees, and their impact on KCSE performance. Data was analysed using means, frequencies, and p-values to identify significant factors. The study identified inadequate learning resources, such as libraries and laboratories, and the absence of academic performance policies as the primary school-related factors influencing poor KCSE performance. Inadequate physical facilities and limited educational exposures were also identified as contributing factors, though to a lesser extent. The study concluded that the lack of essential school resources and academic policies are key school-related barriers to improved KCSE performance in Samburu County. The study recommends that schools enhance academic performance policies, improve resource availability, and increase educational exposures. Additionally, the study suggests further community development initiatives to support educational access and improvement for students in nomadic pastoralist regions.

Published: January 2025

This study aimed to investigate the environmental factors influencing students' performance in the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) in public secondary schools in Samburu County, focusing on the unique challenges faced by students in nomadic pastoralist areas. Despite progress in Kenya’s secondary education sector, academic performance in Samburu County has remained consistently low, with an average KCSE score of 4.4 (D+) between 2001 and 2010. The study explores the various factors that contribute to this poor performance. The study adopted a mixed-methods approach, gathering data from Form 4 school leavers and high school principals through structured questionnaires. The data was analysed using mean, frequencies, and p-values to determine the significance of each factor. The study identified drought, insecurity and culture as the most significant environmental factors influencing performance. The study concludes that droughts variable was the main significant environmental factors that affect academic performance in the study area. Cultural practices such as moranhood and insecurity situations were found to be marginally significant. The study recommends that diversification of pastoral livelihoods could be a solution. This means introducing pastoralists to crop farming, entrepreneurship, and also utilising natural resources like eco-tourism, cultures, and other environmental resources.
Relaciones simbióticas: hacia un comparatismo ibérico feminista
Authors: Casado Laura López , Hoyo Elena Cordero
Published: January 2025

El objetivo de este estudio es subrayar los beneficios mutuos que la unión entre el comparatismo ibérico y el feminismo podrían generar en los estudios en los que se aplicasen dentro del área de las humanidades. La hipótesis de la que partimos es que la suya es una pareja bien avenida, a pesar de la presencia marginal del feminismo en los syllabus y guías docentes universitarias en España y Portugal. Para defender su compatibilidad, nos centraremos en los puntos de contacto, como el hecho de ser intrínsecamente transdisciplinares, transfronterizos, intermediales y haber atendido a semejantes desafíos como su propia heterogeneidad y las críticas recibidas desde el poscolonialismo. De esta forma, exploraremos cómo los estudios comparados ibéricos podrían beneficiarse del momento de auge del feminismo como movimiento social para ganar atractivo y relevancia académica, mientras que el feminismo tendría una base sólida en la que apoyarse con el fin de lograr la legitimación académica –que no su domesticación–. Consideramos esta simbiosis no sólo deseable como necesaria con el objetivo de hacer frente al descrédito de las instituciones y frenar la ola política reaccionaria que está imponiéndose a nivel europeo.

Elemen-elemen Politik sebagai Strategi Mengkapitalisasi Perilaku Pemilih dalam Kontestasi Pemilu Presiden tahun 2024 di Indonesia
Authors: Febriali Sahl Dafiq , Mauluddin Agus
Published: January 2025

This year’s Presidential and Vice-Presidential election is a political power struggle that will determine the future of the Indonesian nation. This qualitative research aims to assess electoral politics, specifically the electability of each candidate pair based on key political elements. The research method used is a literature review, with secondary data obtained from journal articles, books, and online sources. The results of the study indicate that trends in candidate electability can be measured through the harmonization of political survey results and the configuration of each candidate’s electability. The candidate pairs incorporate political elements such as identity politics, political blunders, work programs, elite or key actors, public gimmicks and sensationalism, and political maneuvers, as seen in the campaigns of Anies-Muhaimin, Prabowo-Gibran, and Ganjar-Mahfud. These political elements, which have long existed in Indonesia’s political arena (conventional elements), often dramatically shift the electoral strength of each camp. The candidates must manage these political elements to their electoral advantage if they wish to increase their electability and win the election. This study examines the strategy of capitalizing on voter behavior in the 2024 Presidential Election.
Water Quality Assessment for Raw Water Utilization from Saguling Dam or Saguling Supply Tributaries
Authors: Al-Farisi Fauzan Ahwan
Published: January 2025

The objective of this study is to evaluate the water quality status of Saguling dam and its tributaries in order to determine optimal locations for raw water intake for water treatment plants (WTP). The assessment is centered on pivotal parameters, including dissolved oxygen (DO), pH, and total dissolved solids (TDS), which were measured in situ at 11 sampling points. The water quality was analyzed using the Pollution Index method, in accordance with the standards set forth by the Indonesian regulatory authorities. The findings indicate that the water quality in the region exhibits a range from compliance with established standards to slight contamination. The quality of water at points such as Cilanang, Cijenuk, Ciminyak, Saguling dam, and Cibitung meets the requisite standards and is thus suitable for intake locations, thereby reducing the necessity for extensive treatment. However, points such as Citarum-BBS, Cihaur, and Cijambu exhibit slight pollution, necessitating careful management to mitigate contamination. Among the locations, the Cibitung River is identified as the most optimal intake site due to its superior water quality. This research underscores the significance of strategic intake site selection and comprehensive water management to guarantee a sustainable and reliable clean water supply while supporting environmental conservation.

Published: January 2025

Background: Peptic ulcer is a focal defect in the gastric and/or duodenal mucosa that extends to the submucosa or deeper. Every year peptic ulcer disease affects 4 million people worldwide, 10-20 percent of patients with peptic ulcers develop complications and 2%-14% of them have perforation. Many scoring systems have been reported to predict outcomes in patients with peptic ulcer perforation. The accuracy of each scoring system gives different results in each study. Objective: This study is to determine the most accurate scoring system (POMPP, Boey, and PULP) in predicting the mortality of perforated ulcer patients at Prof. Dr. I.G.N.G. Ngoerah Hospital, Denpasar. Methods: The research design was a retrospective diagnostic study. This study involved 40 peptic ulcer patients who performed surgery, divided into 2 groups: died (n16) and survived (n=26). POMPP, Boey, and PULP were scored and then subjected to descriptive analysis, an accuracy test with two-by-two cross-tabulation, and a validity comparison test by assessing the ROC curve. Results: The scoring values of POMPP, Boey, and PULP are consecutive; sensitivity; 68.7%, 75%, and 63.5%, specificity; 95.8%, 83.3%, and 95.8%, positive predictive value; 91.6%, 83.3%, and 90.9%, negative predictive value; 82.1%, 83.3%, and 79.3, accuracy; 85%, 80%, and 82.5%. The POMPP score had a higher relative risk (RR) value (5.6) compared to Boey (4.8) and PULP (4.6). Conclusion: In predicting the mortality of perforated peptic ulcer patients who were operated on, it was found that the Boey score had a higher sensitivity than the POMPP and PULP scores, but the accuracy of the POMPP score and the RR value of the POMPP score were higher than the Boey and PULP scores.
The Relationship Between Personality Type (Introvert and Extrovert) and Hypertension in the Productive Age: A Review of Current Literature
Authors: Indrayani Silvia , Sulistiawati Sulistiawati , Fithriyah Izzatul
Published: January 2025

Background: Hypertension is a situation where the systolic blood pressure is increasing ≥140 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure is also increasing ≥90 mmHg on two measurements 5 minutes apart in a well-rested or calm state. In general, hypertension is asymptomatic but its morbidity and mortality tend to be high. The higher the blood pressure, the higher the risk of coronary heart disease, heart failure, stroke, and kidney disease. Data from the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2015 showed that around 1.13 billion people in the world have hypertension, meaning that 1 in 3 people in the world are diagnosed with hypertension. Objective: This literature review explains the current research between personality type and hypertension, highlighting risk factors and prevention. Recent studies have identified key risk factors for hypertension in productive age, including lifestyle, obesity, genetics, stress, and personality type, suggesting a multifactorial pathophysiology that warrants further investigation. Method: The method that the researcher used in this study is a non-systematic review that uses database sources from journal publications in ScienceDirect, PubMed, Google Scholar, and WHO. The search utilized keywords such as “Personality type,” “introvert”, “extrovert”, “hypertension”, and “Productive age”. Result: Personality type affects the occurrence of hypertension through a person’s response to stress. In previous studies, it was found that introverted personality types have a higher risk of increased blood pressure, so preventive efforts such as stress management and lifestyle modifications are needed to reduce the risk of hypertension, where hypertension can cause life-threatening complications.

Melanoma, one of the most aggressive skin cancers, is often driven by the BRAF V600E mutation, which promotes tumor growth and therapeutic resistance. This study investigates the potential of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and flavonoids from Centella asiatica extract as inhibitors of this mutation. AgNPs, known for their selective cytotoxicity and nanoparticle precision, disrupt cancer cell signaling pathways, inducing apoptosis and inhibiting proliferation. Flavonoids exhibit complementary anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and cytotoxic properties, targeting the MAPK pathway and reducing oxidative stress. The research emphasizes the synergistic potential of these agents, which may enhance therapeutic outcomes while reducing systemic toxicity. A systematic literature review spanning 2010–2024 provides a comprehensive analysis of molecular mechanisms, computational findings, and experimental results. The integration of nanotechnology and natural compounds offers a groundbreaking strategy to address melanoma’s complexity and drug resistance. While promising, the findings highlight the need for further clinical trials to validate safety and efficacy. This innovative approach paves the way for targeted and personalized therapies in oncology.

Authors: Agustianto Jauhar Ramady , Prastyani Reni
Published: January 2025

Computer use is almost inevitable in this modern era. Facing towards digital device for more than 2 hours can lead to Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS). Around the world, the average screen time of daily digital use is 6 hours and 40 minutes which increases the risks of getting CVS. During the period of the Covid-19 pandemic, medical students often use digital devices as their source of learning and physical contact should be minimized. Nowadays, prolonged screen time is like a normal thing for them as a result of adapting to life after the pandemic. Almost 90% of digital device users around the world are affected by the presence of Computer Vision Syndrome’s symptoms such as eye strain, headache, dry eye, blurred vision, diplopia, etc. One of the symptoms, such as dry eye, could decrease quality of life. CVS is also affecting sleep quality and daily activity performance. Therefore, the risk of medical students being affected by CVS is bigger than before. This review focuses on how Computer Vision Syndrome could affect the medical student’s academic performance. CVS might not be a fatal disease that could lead to death but its prevention could provide better daily life. Further research for CVS as one of the modern-era ophthalmological diseases is needed to improve the prevention and management of this disease.

Authors: Ariadwianto Kezia Biandra Putri , Santoso Kohar Hari , Sulisytono Agus
Published: January 2025

After the delivery of a newborn, a comprehensive initial assessment is immediately conducted to evaluate the infant’s overall health status. This critical initial evaluation serves as the foundational step in identifying any pressing medical issues, determining the need for urgent medical interventions, and closely monitoring the newborn’s adaptation to extrauterine life. APGAR Score is a standardized test performed on a newborn baby after birth to assess the clinical status. APGAR Score assessment uses a rapid method and also requires intervention for resuscitation. In addition to the immediate post-birth assessment, there are several key factors that contribute to the APGAR score outcome, which serves as an indicator of the newborn’s immediate health and physiological status at birth. These factors include the mode of delivery. Whether the birth is vaginal or cesarean can have a profound impact on neonatal outcomes. This literature review will explore the relationship between the mode of delivery and APGAR scores, providing valuable insights for healthcare providers to optimize newborn care and decision-making.

Published: January 2025

Purpose: This study aims to examine the role of education in addressing the knowledge gaps related to stunting prevention, particularly in low-income communities. It explores how targeted educational interventions can impact parents’ understanding of stunting and its prevention, ultimately contributing to the long-term reduction of stunting rates. Findings: The study found significant improvements in parents’ knowledge regarding stunting prevention, as evidenced by the pre- and post-test results. While most participants showed an improved understanding of key concepts such as nutrition, immunization, and the importance of growth monitoring, there remain gaps in areas like exclusive breastfeeding and the long-term effects of stunting. Limitation: The study’s limitations include the short duration of the intervention, which may not have allowed for noticeable changes in children’s physical growth outcomes. Furthermore, the study was limited to a specific geographical area, which may not fully represent the diversity of stunting challenges across different regions. Originality/Values: This study contributes to the growing body of research on stunting prevention by emphasizing the critical role of education in addressing knowledge gaps. It highlights the need for ongoing educational programs that empower parents and communities to adopt healthier practices, thereby improving child health outcomes and contributing to the achievement of the SDGs related to nutrition and well-being.
Correlation between Estrogen Receptor, Progesterone Receptor, and Ki-67 Expression Levels with Neoadjuvant AC-T Chemotherapy Response in Triple Positive Breast Cancer (TPBC) Patients after Modified Radical Mastectomy (MRM) at Prof. Dr. I.G.N.G. Ngoerah General Hospital
Authors: Saniti Ni Made Apriliani , Suryawisesa Ida Bagus Made , Sudarsa I Wayan
Published: January 2025

Background: Triple Positive Breast Cancer (TPBC), a subtype of breast cancer expressing ER, PR, and HER-2, has unique biological characteristics that influence therapy response. Neoadjuvant AC-T chemotherapy is commonly used for TPBC; however, the correlation between ER, PR, and Ki-67 expression levels and therapy response remains unclear. TPBC has a lower pathological complete response (pCR) rate compared to other subtypes, but a low pCR does not always indicate a poor prognosis. This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between ER, PR, and Ki-67 expression levels and the response to neoadjuvant AC-T chemotherapy in TPBC patients to support more effective and safer treatment strategies. Methods: This analytical observational study used a cross-sectional design conducted at Prof. Dr. I.G.N.G Ngoerah General Hospital, Denpasar, from June 2022 to June 2023. The target population was TPBC patients who underwent neoadjuvant AC-T chemotherapy and MRM surgery. Samples were collected using consecutive sampling. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, ROC curve analysis to determine variable cut-off points, and Chi-Square tests to assess relationships between variables. Results: ROC analysis showed a cut-off point for ER at 17.5% (AUC 0.506, p=0.950), PR at 25% (AUC 0.521, p=0.815), and Ki-67 at 35% (AUC 0.465, p=0.700). Chi-square tests revealed no significant correlation between high expression of ER (p=0.717), PR (p=0.505), or Ki-67 (p=0.970) and chemotherapy response. Conclusions: ER, PR, and Ki-67 expression levels do not significantly correlate with the response to neoadjuvant AC-T chemotherapy in TPBC patients.

Published: January 2025

Introduction: Primary headache is the most common neurological complaint found in the neurology department. In Indonesia, the prevalence of primary headaches reaches 90%. The causes or risk factors for primary headaches are quite complex. Therefore, this study examines one of the risk factors, namely sleep quality. The aim of this study is to determine the relationship between sleep quality and primary headaches in medical students of Universitas Airlangga, class of 2021-2022. Method: This cross-sectional study involved 107 respondents consisting of medical students from Universitas Airlangga, class of 2021-2022. The research data were collected through questionnaires, which included the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and the Headache Intake Questionnaire (HIQ). From these questionnaires, sleep quality scores and the occurrence of primary headaches can be measured. Results: The study included 107 respondents, comprising 56 males and 51 females. The majority were 20 years old, with 54 respondents from the 2021 cohort and 53 from the 2022 cohort. Overall, 92 respondents had poor sleep quality, while 15 had good sleep quality. Regarding headaches, 49 respondents experienced primary headaches, including 25 with Tension-Type Headaches (TTH) and 24 with migraines; 58 respondents did not experience headaches. The main trigger factor for headaches among respondents was stress. Of the 49 respondents with headaches, 18 consumed NSAIDs. There was a significant relationship between sleep quality and primary headaches (P < 0.007). Conclusion: Sleep quality correlates with how the incidence of primary headaches occurs.

Sleep disorders are a common health problem that can affect various aspects of the body’s metabolism, including the risk of diabetes mellitus (DM) and its complications. Research shows that poor sleep quality or inadequate sleep duration can increase the risk of developing type 2 DM as well as worsen the condition of patients who have already been diagnosed. The mechanisms involved include impaired glucose regulation, insulin resistance and systemic inflammation. In addition, sleep disorders such as obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), insomnia, and restless legs syndrome also contribute to the development of chronic complications of DM, such as cardiovascular disease and diabetic neuropathy. This literature review aims to identify the relationship between sleep disorders and the risk of diabetes or its complications based on current scientific evidence. The analysis showed a significant association between poor sleep quality and increased risk of DM and long-term complications. Understanding this association allows for more effective prevention and intervention measures, such as raising awareness of the importance of sleep management in high-risk populations. Further research is needed to strengthen these findings and explore more in-depth mechanisms so that optimal prevention and treatment strategies can be developed. Sleep health awareness should be an integral part of diabetes management to improve patients’ quality of life.

Authors: Ketaren Tasya Nathania Br , Wahyunitisari Manik Retno , Rusli Musofa , Widodo Agung Dwi Wahyu
Published: January 2025

Background: In Indonesia, East Java ranks second in HIV cases, with 71,909 reported by March 2022. The co-infection of HIV and TB poses significant health challenges, as People Living with HIV ( PLHIV ) are 14-18 times more likely to contract TB, which accelerates HIV progression and increases the risk of death. In 2021, TB was the leading cause of death among PLHIV, with around 187,000 deaths worldwide. Understanding the clinical profile of TB-HIV co-infected patients is essential to improve diagnosis and treatment, particularly in RSUD Dr. Soetomo Surabaya, where this study aims to provide valuable data for reducing co-infection cases in Surabaya and Indonesia. This study is a descriptive retrospective study that uses secondary data from medical records. In this research, 154 TB patients with HIV-AIDS at Dr. Soetomo Surabaya Regional General Hospital were collected through a random sampling technique within a period of 1 year, starting from January 2022 to December 2022. The characteristics of TB-HIV patients were predominantly male, with the majority aged between 18-65 years. The distribution of CD4 risk factors showed that 53% of the patients had very low CD4 levels, followed by 35% with low CD4 levels. Analysis of physical factors such as hemoglobin, leukocyte, and platelet levels revealed that most patients had low hemoglobin levels, with normal leukocyte and platelet counts, showing significant differences between these parameters in TB-HIV patients. This study also demonstrated that the majority of confirmed TB patients with HIV at RSUD Dr. Soetomo exhibited at least one clinical sign, including cough, fever, chronic diarrhea, or weight loss.
Extensive margin effects following the Japan-EU free trade agreement: analysing future developments in the agri-food sector
Authors: Berndt Marvin , Hess Sebastian
Published: January 2025

Purpose. This study develops a model to predict and analyse the potential impacts of the Japan-EU Free Trade Agreement (JEFTA) on EU-Japan agri-food trade by focusing on the extensive margin of trade. The model identifies emerging and disappearing trade flows and evaluates their implications for the future total trade volume between the two regions. This was done in order to obtain trade volume predictions that are more disaggregated for agri-food products than in previous studies.
Methodology / approach. The extensive margin model by Felbermayr and Kohler (2010) is used in conjunction with an econometric gravity trade model to create a new two-step forecast procedure. This procedure can be used to predict the emergence of new trade flows between the two countries, as well as their disappearance.
Results. Aggregate changes in the extensive margin appear modest, but significant changes occur when new and disappearing trade flows are being considered separately. Overall, EU agri-food exports to Japan are predicted to increase by USD 2127 million by 2038. When emerging and disappearing trade flows are expressly considered, the predicted increase of EU agri-food exports is USD 7 million lower. Behind this overall change in the forecast is a much greater change at the level of individual trade flows: emerging trade flows are estimated to contribute USD 112 million in new exports to Japan by 2038, while disappearing trade flows total to USD 119 million. The majority of these changes are characterised by trade flows of less than USD 50,000 each.
Originality / scientific novelty. This study presents a methodological advancement in trade forecasting by integrating the extensive margin model by Felbermayr and Kohler (2010) with an econometric gravity trade model in a two-step prediction process for the Japan-EU Free Trade Agreement. Detailed findings on emerging and disappearing trade flows indicate that previous forecasts based on more aggregate data may overlook crucial developments at the level of individual agri-food products.
Practical value / implications. The findings emphasise the importance of considering the extensive margin in FTA evaluations. Policymakers and firms may misjudge trade opportunities without accounting for new and disappearing trade flows, highlighting the need for comprehensive sectoral trade strategies.

Published: January 2025

Purpose. The study aims to (i) identify barriers to the efficient flow of agricultural products from Ukraine along the European Union (EU) solidarity lanes that pass through the territory of Poland and (ii) recommend actions that will improve transit.
Methodology / approach. The information collection method was questionnaire using Computer-Assisted Telephone Interviews. Structured interviews were conducted with representatives of Polish transport companies that provided services for the transportation of agricultural products from Ukraine through Poland. Information processing methods include structure analysis and statistical description.
Results. It was found that improving the transit of agricultural products from Ukraine via the transit route through Poland would help mitigate the effects of the grain crisis in all its aspects. The bottlenecks of this alternative transit route are identified. It was presented what infrastructural, technical, regulatory, administrative and organisational activities would improve transit. Attention was paid to the importance of social support for the success of the project.
Originality / scientific novelty. The study is a source of new knowledge obtained by analysing methodically and purposefully collected data – through structured interviews with representatives of Polish transport companies. The applied value of the study lies in the fact that it formulates recommendations for solving an urgent problem of economic practice, namely the export of Ukrainian agricultural products under conditions of war.
Practical value / implications. Due to the prolonged Russian-Ukrainian war, there was an urgent need to develop alternative routes for the export of Ukrainian agricultural products. The development of the transit route through Poland expresses the commitment to alleviate the effects of the global food crisis caused by the war unleashed by Russia in Ukraine and to help the war-torn country. Hence the applied importance of research in this area.

For more in-depth analysis, correlation analysis and multiple linear regression analysis are used, which identifies the main factors influencing prices and forecasts future market trends.
Results. The analysis shows that in all the countries considered, production value has a consistently positive influence on wheat prices, underscoring the importance of investments in production. Ammonia emissions and the share of organic farming have varying effects on prices in different countries, reflecting specific national conditions and regulations. For example, ammonia emissions significantly negatively impact prices in Germany and Spain, while in France and Italy, this effect is weaker or absent. On the other hand, organic farming has a negative impact on prices in France and Italy, which may be due to greater supply and competitiveness in the organic markets in these countries. The findings highlight the role of environmental and economic factors in agricultural product pricing and can guide the development of policies for sustainable development.
Originality / scientific novelty. The scientific novelty lies in integrating vital environmental factors – emissions and organic farming – with a significant economic indicator, such as production value, into a single pricing model. This holistic approach allows an in-depth analysis of the combined impact of environmental and economic factors on price trends in the EU’s leading agricultural economies.
Practical value / implications. In a broader context, the study provides empirical evidence that can be used to inform the EU policies in agriculture, environment and sustainable development. Its findings can serve as a basis for reviewing and adapting existing regulations and programmes to achieve a more balanced and sustainable ecosystem in the region’s agricultural sector.

Published: January 2025

Purpose. This study focuses on evaluating the implementation of policies and programmes introduced by the government and local authorities to support the digital transformation of agricultural enterprises. It also analyses the impact of these policies and other factors on the digital transformation capabilities of agricultural enterprises in Vietnam, with the moderating role of policy accessibility.
Methodology / approach. The study employs a combination of qualitative and quantitative research methods. The impact of policies on digital transformation capabilities was tested through multiple regression analysis, using data collected from a survey of 400 agricultural enterprises in Thanh Hoa.
Results. The findings reveal that government support policies are a crucial determinant of the digital transformation capabilities of businesses, alongside five other factors included in the model. Policy support is the second most influential factor in enhancing digital transformation. Furthermore, policy accessibility acts as a moderating variable that strengthens the positive relationship between government policies and digital transformation capabilities. Based on the research results, a number of recommendations are proposed for public authorities and enterprises to improve the digital transformation process.
Originality / scientific novelty. This research provides both an analysis of the practical implementation of digital transformation policies for agricultural enterprises and an assessment of their impact on digital transformation capabilities. Additionally, by introducing policy accessibility as a moderating variable, the study underscores its role in shaping the relationship between policy support and digital transformation, leading to more targeted recommendations for improving the digital transformation of businesses.
Practical value / implications. Based on the findings, the study offers several recommendations for government authorities that improve the effectiveness of policies such as establishing a centralised digital platform, organising regular regional workshops and webinars, simplifying procedures, continuously evaluate the effectiveness of their policies, building a collaborative ecosystem. In term of agricultural enterprises, they should establish internal teams dedicated to navigating policy frameworks and ensuring compliance with government regulations, enhancing transparency in their financial and operational records and seek to build partnerships with legal and advisory services to improve their accessibility to supporting policies.

Purpose. The aim of this research is to evaluate the farmer characteristics, knowledge, social and economic factors that influence the decision to join a cooperative, as well as its impact on farmers’ welfare. By identifying factors that affect farmers’ decision making, agricultural policies especially regarding cooperatives, will be optimised for development.
Methodology / approach. This study was conducted at a Coffee Farmer Producer Cooperative in Tana Toraja, South Sulawesi Province, Indonesia. The sample consisted of 70 respondents from all members of the cooperative. The collection of data was done through the distribution of questionnaires, and the data were analysed using a statistical analysis method, namely Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modeling with the software SmartPLS4.0.
Results. Research found that agricultural policies implemented through corporate farming in the form of cooperatives improves the quality and capabilities of members, provides production capacity, and increases production, processing, and marketing. Furthermore, the result of the analysis proves that farmer characteristics, knowledge, social and economic factors have a positive and significant impact on the decision to join a cooperative, as well as a positive and significant impact on farmers’ welfare. The indicators with the strongest correlation with farmers’ characteristics are farming experience and age. The indicators that are most closely related to knowledge are the purpose and functions of the cooperative. The indicators that are most strongly linked to social factors are group support and sources of information, and to economic indicators are the availability of infrastructure and production capacity. Thus, the decision to join a cooperative has a positive impact on improving farmers’ welfare.
Originality / scientific novelty. This study highlights comprehensive aspect of farmers’ decision to join cooperatives that has not been adequately studied in previous research. This study presents a new perspective that enriches the discussion in previous studies that only focused on the impacts of cooperative on farmers’ welfare without exploring the factors that influence it.
Practical value / implications. The results of this study indicate recommendations for the stakeholders especially the government, to support the development of farmers’ institutions in order to optimally empower farmers. The government is supposed to take concrete steps by facilitating education about cooperatives, simplifying administrative processes, and improving infrastructure to encourage farmers to join cooperatives, and ultimately improve their welfare.

Published: January 2025

Мета. Метою дослідження є обґрунтування функціональності бухгалтерського обліку як інструмента моніторингу індикаторів досягнення Цілей сталого розвитку (ЦСР).
Методологія / методика / підхід. У дослідженні використано такі методи: узагальнення й формалізації (для систематизації досліджуваної інформації та представлення запропонованої оцінки), економіко-статистичний аналіз (для оцінки стану й тенденцій індексу досягнення ЦСР), кореляційний і регресійний аналіз (для розрахунку впливу факторів на Індекс ЦСР), графічний і табличний (для візуального представлення даних).
Результати. На прикладі сільськогосподарських підприємств доведено важливість проведення моніторингу індикаторів досягнення ЦСР на мікрорівні. Зокрема розвинуто корпоративний рівень досліджень політики сталого розвитку, який декларує мету досягнення ЦСР як невід’ємну частину бізнес-моделі підприємства. Установлено, що поряд із глобальним моніторингом індикаторів досягнення ЦСР, який базується на статистичних даних окремих країн, важливим є відповідний моніторинг на рівні окремих підприємств. Такий моніторинг запропоновано здійснювати з використанням інструментів і методів бухгалтерського обліку. Для здійснення комплексного моніторингу запропоновано алгоритм облікового забезпечення аналізу й оцінки індикаторів досягнення ЦСР сільськогосподарським підприємством. Алгоритм включає чотири етапи: визначення мети, параметрів й обсягів аналізу; інвентаризація діяльності, збір і документування галузевих індикаторів досягнення ЦСР; визначення, аналіз (кореляційний, регресійний) та оцінка галузевих факторів впливу на індикатори досягнення ЦСР; інтерпретація результатів та узагальнення їх у звітності. Для врахування даних, що не мають фінансового виразу, розроблено три шкали оцінки якісних параметрів впливу діяльності (продукту) на досягнення соціальних та екологічних ЦСР. Також запропоновано підхід для оцінювання ризику й невизначеності результатів дослідження за розробленим алгоритмом.
Оригінальність / наукова новизна. Запропоновано алгоритм облікового забезпечення аналізу та оцінки індикаторів досягнення ЦСР сільськогосподарським підприємством, який, на відміну від наявних, дає можливість ураховувати показники, що не мають фінансового виміру. Розроблений алгоритм декларує розширення функціональності бухгалтерського обліку, доповнюючи її функцією моніторингу індикаторів досягнення ЦСР. Теоретичний складник досліджень містить удосконалену класифікацію бухгалтерського обліку з урахуванням критеріїв сталого розвитку.
Практична цінність / значущість. Результати дослідження можуть бути використані сільськогосподарськими підприємствами різних розмірів, спеціалізацій і форм власності, які прагнуть провадити свою діяльність у векторі сталого розвитку з метою виявлення проблемних місць і формування альтернатив вирішення наявних проблем.
