Authors: Oliveira Lessandra Paula Targino de , Nascimento Francinaide de Lima Silva , Tavares Andrezza Maria Batista do Nascimento
Published: December 2022

O presente artigo busca desenvolver apontamentos sobre o campo da educação profissional integrado ao da educação inclusiva, partindo da valorização da formação humana integral enquanto princípio que alarga a conscientização da sociedade diante dos desafios da inclusão escolar, destacadamente, do estudante disléxico. A pertinência do tema dislexia no campo da formação docente relaciona-se aos resultados de investigações que apontam a incidência de percentuais relativos a 10% e 15% na população mundial. Metodologicamente, parte de uma pesquisa bibliográfica, amparada nas contribuições de Ianhez e Nico (2002), Lima e Medeiros Neta (2017), Mousinho (2004), Silva e Crenitte (2014), no que se refere à significação da inclusão e da dislexia; como também Moura (2014), Carlos e Tavares (2016), Manica e Caliman (2015), quanto à concepção de formação humana integral e a sua relação com a educação inclusiva. Procedeu-se com análise documental na legislação educacional vigente no Brasil, a exemplo das Diretrizes e Bases da Educação Nacional (LDB), e o Projeto Político Pedagógico (PPP), do Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia do Rio Grande do Norte (IFRN). A pesquisa é oportuna pela necessária reflexão sobre a inclusão do estudante disléxico em percursos de educação profissional a partir do trabalho de agentes educativos engajados com o valioso princípio da formação humana integral. A análise demonstrou que o percurso da educação inclusiva no campo da educação profissional é uma alternativa segura para contribuir com o desenvolvimento humano de pessoas, tendo em vista o amparo no princípio da formação humana integral.
UM PAI-DO-MATO: NARRATIVA DA TRADIÇÃO ORAL/ESCRITA ALAGOANA E PERNAMBUCANA
Authors: Vegini Valdir , Vegini Rebecca Louize da Silva
Published: December 2022

RESUMO
O objeto deste artigo são duas narrativas da tradição oral nordestina denominadas Pai-do-Mato, que foram consagradas por escrito em livro por Cascudo. O objetivo consiste em dissecar os narratemas de cada uma duas histórias e deles extrair traços culturais, tradicionais e narrativos verossimilhantes como estratégia metodológica para compreender por que e para que esses dois entes surgem naquela época e naquele ambiente, qual sua função social na sociedade daquele tempo e por que, na atualidade, perdem as propriedades peculiares e são transformadas tão somente em peças literárias de cunho folclórico escritas. A análise realizada com base nas teorias da “Cultura, Hibridismo e Identidade Cultural”, “Tradição oral” e “Construção Narrativa da Realidade” mostra que a perda das propriedades peculiares, ativas até praticamente o final do século passado, apontam como consequências do fenômeno cultural, midiático, da hibridização intercultural, da desterritorialização, da mobilidade identitária e da globalização do mundo pós-moderno. Os resultados não são conclusivos por se tratar de um estudo eminentemente hermenêutico.

Every country's railway heritage is very important, given the fact that it represents an important part of a nation's identity. Romanian has a vast network of railways and rolling stock, from steam locomotives built in Resita in the 1900s, to modern day electric locomotives with asynchronous traction motors built by Softronic Craiova. This article's goal is to showcase the reasons why conserving Romania's railway heritage is important, especially when it comes to locomotives. In this article we will analyse Romania's locomotives and their attributes. The results show us that, although locomotives are an important part of Romania's heritage that the country should be proud of, they are not valued to the fullest extent possible.

Authors: Topić-Pavković Branka , Kovačević Slaviša , Kurušić Drago
Published: December 2022

Achieving sustainable economic growth is one of the main goals of economic policy in modern countries. As previous research has shown, the development of financial system has a significant influence on economic growth. The importance of the innovative banking sector in developing countries becomes particularly important due to the insufficient evolvent of other parts of the financial system. The subject of this paper is the analysis of the impact of the banking sector of Bosnia and Herzegovina on economic growth in the period from 2000 to 2021. The aim of the study is to quantify this relationship. In this study we apllied ARDL model to determine long-term and short-term relationship between observed variables. The results show that the increase in total loans granted by the banking sector to companies from the non-financial sector has a positive impact on the development of GDP. Namely, a 1% increase in total bank credit to non-financial private sector firms leads to an increase in GDP of about 0.08% in long run and about 0.20% in short run.
Does Interest Rate Really Stimulate Savings in Nigeria?
Authors: Babalola Abdurrauf , Abdul Abiodun Ibrahim
Published: December 2022

Research background: Interest rate as a stimulus to savings has been discussed by many scholars while ancient scholars kicked against the collection of usury (interest). Developing countries like Nigeria may not be stimulated with the rate of interest because of its insignificant level, which is presently causing financial exclusion against the opponents of interest.

Purpose: This study examines whether interest rate really stimulates savings in Nigeria.

Research methodology: The study covers the post-liberalization period between 1987 and 2021. The research employs the Vector Autoregressive/Error Correction techniques to analyze the data and make statistical inferences.

Results: The results of the show that interest rate (deposit rate) has a positively non-significant effect on savings in Nigeria. On the contrary, the Treasury bill rate, Insecurity and Inflation rate have a significant impact on savings in Nigeria.

Novelty: No existing study has been made to investigate if the interest rate (deposit rate) has the ability to stimulate domestic savings in the Nigerian economy. None has included the Insecurity index and none has used the vector autoregressive error correction tools to analyze this inquiry so “Does Interest Rate Really Stimulate Savings in Nigeria?

Authors: Gabrikova Barbora , Svabova Lucia
Published: December 2022

Research background: Active labour market policy measures serve to improve the situation with unemployment and the placeability of jobseekers in the labour market. An important tool for the functioning of these interventions is their continuous monitoring and evaluation.

Purpose: In this paper, we focus on the Allowance for self-employment gainful activity aimed at providing the financial contribution to start a business. The paper aims to find out those jobseekers’ characteristics that mostly increase the probability of participation in this intervention.

Research methodology: We use data from the database of jobseekers of the Central Office of Labour, Social Affairs and Family in Slovakia, the probability model is constructed by a logistic regression.

Results: We found several characteristics that significantly impact the decision to participate in the measure. Jobseekers with previous employment in service activities (NACE S), married, long-term unemployed and with a 2nd university degree have a higher chance of participating in this program of the labour market. On the contrary, high age, low education or permanent residence in the Bratislava region decreases the chance for participation in this intervention.

Novelty: Knowing the individuals’ characteristics that significantly contribute to the interest in participating in this program can help policymakers set the instrument’s eligibility conditions and allocate funds to increase interest in using this treatment where necessary.
Panel Estimation of the Environmental Kuznets Curve for CO2 Emissions and Ecological Footprint: Environmental Sustainability in Developing Countries
Authors: Konya Sevilay
Published: December 2022

Research background: The relationship between the economy and the environment is one of the most frequently encountered issues recently. Today the issue of environmental sustainability is one of the problems faced by countries.

Purpose: This study, it is aimed at investigating the relationship between economic and environmental variables.

Research methodology: The existence of the environmental Kuznets curve theory, in other words, the inverted U-connection between per capita carbon dioxide emissions, per capita ecological footprint, and per capita GDP in the examples of 10 developing countries is examined. We analyzed annual balanced panel data covering the period 1992–2014 for an inverted U-link between carbon dioxide emissions and ecological footprint and per capita GDP. Westerlund’s cointegration test was applied as a cointegration test. The Common Correlated Effects Mean Group (CCEMG) and Augment Mean Group (AMG) estimator methods were applied for long-term parameter estimation. The Dumitrescu and Hurlin causality test was applied to determine the causal connections.

Results: As a result of the study, a positive and significant effect of electricity consumption on carbon dioxide emission was determined in the long term in the model where the ecological footprint is the dependent variable. In the environmental Kuznets curve hypothesis, an inverted U-shaped relationship was determined. That is, the results confirming the existence of the environmental Kuznets curve have been determined. Finally, bidirectional causal links between carbon emissions and economic growth, between carbon dioxide emissions and the square of economic growth, and between carbon dioxide emissions and electricity consumption; It is observed between the ecological footprint and economic growth, between the ecological footprint and the square of economic growth, and between the ecological footprint and electricity consumption. It is expected that this article will make a significant contribution to the literature with the important results obtained by using both an ecological footprint and carbon dioxide emission as dependent variables.

Novelty: In this study, unlike other studies, two models were created with both CO2 emissions and the ecological footprint data as environmental variables.

Authors: Avram Rodica Lucia , Băluță Monica Mariana , Delcea Caterina , Andronescu Anna Maria , Lechea Elena , Vladu Gabriela , Nechita Alexandru Cristian
Published: December 2022

Objective

Serum lactate, a marker of tissue hypoxia, is an important prognostic factor in sepsis, trauma, and cardiogenic shock. Data on the direct correlation of serum lactate and in-hospital mortality in normotensive acute pulmonary thromboembolism (APE) patients, however, remains scarce.

Material and methods

We analyzed normotensive APE patients admitted to our clinic from January 1, 2014, to December 31, 2021. Serum lactate was collected from arterial blood at admission.

Results

The study sample included 161 patients with an average age of 68.61 ± 11.54 years. 54.94% were female. In-hospital mortality was 19.88%.

In ROC analysis, serum lactate was a predictor of in-hospital mortality with an AUC of 0.662 (95%CI 0.584 – 0.735, p = 0.005). The cut-off level identified by the Youden index-associated criterion was > 38 mg/dL (34.38% sensitivity, 94.57% specificity).

In multivariable analysis for in-hospital mortality alongside the biomarkers proposed by the 2019 ESC guidelines for severity assessment, lactate > 38 mg/dL was an independent predictor of mortality (OR 10.92, 95%CI 3.04 – 39.29, p < 0.001).

The prediction model including PESI score, right ventricular dysfunction, troponin I, and lactate > 38 mg/dL had the best predictive performance for in-hospital mortality (AUC 0.807, p < 0.001).

Conclusions

Elevated serum lactate is an independent predictor of all-cause in-hospital mortality of normotensive APE patients, with the optimal cut-off > 38 mg/dL. Adding the lactate level for mortality prediction outperformed the 2019 ESC guidelines algorithm for severity assessment of normotensive APE patients.
Re-contextualizando la temprana recepción de Montessori en España (1906-1936)
Authors: Quiroga Uceda Patricia
Published: December 2022

Maria Montessori es una figura intelectual que emerge con voz propia en la historia de la educación transnacional del siglo XX. En el caso de España su influencia ha sido y sigue siendo profunda. Lo que se plantea en este trabajo es un estudio histórico de su temprana recepción en el contexto español en las tres décadas que transcurren de 1906 a 1936. El punto de partida es una re-contextualización de sus ideas educativas desde la óptica de campos de conocimientos diferenciados de la propia pedagogía. Un aspecto aún no abordado por los historiadores de la educación. El estudio se enmarca en la corriente de la historia intelectual, más específicamente en los estudios de circulación, transferencia y recepción de ideas. Se toman como referencia principal los trabajos de historiadores como David Armitage y David Boucher, que han desarrollado enfoques contextuales analíticos para el estudio de las ideas y su reconfiguración en espacios geográficos determinados y periodos temporales específicos. Se plantea una re-contextualización del proceso de recepción de las ideas de Montessori a partir de tres campos aparentemente distantes de la pedagogía en las tres primeras décadas del siglo XX en España como lo eran la política, la religión y la medicina. Se constata una recepción trasversal y compleja de las ideas de Montessori en España que abarca un ancho espectro ideológico. Se detecta también que campos como la política y la religión se adelantaron al campo de la pedagogía en la recepción de la obra de Montessori.

Kaolinit kilinin hidrojen depolama amaçlı kullanımı için modifikasyonu ve karakterizasyonu
Authors: KOÇER KIZILDUMAN Berna
Published: December 2022

Dünyada var olan enerji kaynaklarının son yıllarda azalmasına bağlı olarak, güvenli ve sürdürülebilir enerji alanlarında alternatif olabileceği düşüncesiyle yenilenebilir enerji kaynaklarının kullanılmasına yönelik bilimsel çalışmalar hızla devam etmektedir. Hidrojen, güç üretimi, ısı, ulaşım ve enerji depolama sistemleri gibi farklı alanlarda kullanım potansiyeline sahip küresel olarak çevre üzerinde herhangi bir etkisi olmayan temiz yenilenebilir bir enerji kaynağıdır. Kaolinit, 1:1 tabakalı yapıya sahip ve katmanlar arası mesafesi düşük bir kil mineralidir. Kil minerallerinin adsorpsiyon kapasitelerinin ilgi çekici olması sebebiyle kaolinit birçok depolama uygulamaları için kullanılabilir. Yapılan çalışmalar, kil minerallerinin hidrojen depolama materyali olarak kullanılabileceği göstermektedir ancak katmanlar arası mesafesi diğer killere oranla daha az bir kil minerali olması sebebiyle hidrojen moleküllerinin kaolinit tabakaları arasında tutulması zordur. Bu nedenle, kaolinitin hidrojen depolama kapasitesinin arttırılmasına yönelik ön işlemler dikkat çekmektedir. Bu çalışmada, kaolinit üzerinde hidrojen moleküllerinin adsorpsiyonunun arttırılması amacıyla 1:1 kil tabakasına sahip kaolinit (K) öncelikle dimetil sülfoksit (DMSO) organik bileşeği ile aralanarak interkale kaolinit (KD), sonrasında ise organik bir modifiyer madde olan 2,6-diaminopiridin (2,6-DAP) molekülleri ile DMSO moleküllerinin yer değiştirmesi sağlanarak modifiye kaolinit (KD_2,6-DAP) organokili oluşturulmuştur. Elde edilen örneklerin temel olarak karakterizasyonunda BET yüzey alanı tayin cihazı ile yüzey alanları ve gözenek boyutu dağılımları; SEM cihazı ile morfolojisi; FTIR ve XRD cihazları ile yapısal karakterizasyonu; TGA cihazı ile termal kararlılığı belirlenmiştir. Aralanarak modifiye edilen kaolinitin hidrojen depolama kapasitesi, kriyojenik sıcaklıkta ve 0-7 bar basınç aralığında kaolinitten daha yüksek olarak ölçülmüştür. 7 bar basınçta kaolinitin ağırlıkça hidrojen depolama kapasitesi %0,002, modifiye kaolinitin ise %0,018 olarak belirlenmiştir. Gerçekleştirilen tüm bu karakterizasyon işlemleri ışığında killerin modifikasyon ile hidrojen depolama kapasitelerinin arttırılabileceği ve enerji alanında hidrojen depolama materyali olarak kullanılabileceği sonucuna varılmıştır.

Bank Indonesia operates as a central bank in Indonesia. Bank Indonesia acts as a regulator and has authority over the whole Indonesian payment system. One of the newest innovations in the payment system is the Quick Response code Indonesia Standard (QRIS). Furthermore, this study aims to evaluate the implementation of payment systems through digital transactions using the Quick Response code Indonesia Standard (QRIS) in Papua Province. This study began with identifying the major issues that occurred from QRIS implementation in Papua Province. There are four major problems with QRIS implementation. After finding several significant issues from implementing QRIS in Papua Province, we try to construct a solution based on the management's strategic approach. By using SWOT analysis and the 7p method, it is expected that we can propose a comprehensive solution based on the current situation and conditions. We proposed several strategies from SWOT analysis and a 7p marketing mix that focused on increasing financial literacy and financial inclusion, improving digital penetration, and building an essential environment and infrastructure. The strategies can be executed by Bank Indonesia itself and work together with third parties or other stakeholders to improve the number of QRIS merchants. Bank Indonesia - Papua Representative, can effectively implement the strategies by taking advantage of QRIS opportunities as a digital product and optimizing current situations (COVID-19) and upcoming events (PON XX). The strategies can also be carried out to raise awareness and acquire new merchants by leveraging third-party marketing and acquisition resources, particularly PJSP.

Financial Literacy and Investment in Health: Points of Intersection
Authors: Goleva Olga Ivanovna , Goleva Lyubov Ivanovna
Published: December 2022

Unwillingness to carry out preventive measures and follow the principles of a healthy lifestyle (and, accordingly, spend money on it) can be considered as an example of irrational behavior not only from a medical point of view, but also from an economic point of view. The economic justification of the effectiveness of investments in health is not only a tool of personal financial planning for a person with a certain level of financial literacy, but also another argument for encouraging the population by the state and the employer to health–saving behavior of individuals. The proposed article is devoted to the relationship of a person's financial literacy with his decision-making about health-saving behavior and the implementation of measures aimed at reducing the risk to life and health. The results of research on financial literacy as a determinant of human health and financial literacy in the context of investing in one's health are studied on the data of the scientometric database Scopus. There has been a sharp increase in interest in this topic in the international research field since 2020. The analyzed works show that financial literacy is not determinant in health-saving behavior, but can be used as a tool for making rational decisions. Based on the theoretical analysis of normative and literary sources (domestic and foreign methodological recommendations, materials of scientific articles presented in the RSCI and Scopus database from 2000 to 2022), the main approaches to assessing the effectiveness of investments in disease prevention for an individual within the framework of personal financial planning as a way of rational decision-making are summarized. Conclusions are drawn about the complexity of independent "rational" calculation of the effectiveness of investments in health, regardless of the level of financial literacy. The assumption is made about the need to use formalized approaches in assessing investments in health as a tool for rational decision-making on the one hand, and a tool for improving health literacy.

Published: December 2022

This article examines the problem of folklore and literature based on the material of the Mari national literature of the first third of the twentieth century. The subject of the study is the role of folklore traditions in the formation of the genre of the satirical novel. The influence of folklore images-characters, genres of oral folk art (fairy tale, proverb, saying, etc.), their poetics and stylistics on the process of formation of Mari national literature, on the birth of the first Mari satirical novel – N. V. Ignatiev's novel "Savik" is shown. In such a scientific and theoretical aspect, this work of Mari literature is being studied in regional and domestic literary studies for the first time. The research method is structural and semantic, which allows to see the comic component of a satirical novel at the level of both its genre content and its poetics. The article proves that it is the folklore genre and figurative intertext that contributes to the disclosure of the satirical problems of the novel "Savik"; the main satirical techniques and means in it are sarcasm, specific nomination of characters ("talking names"), "sounding" toponymy, parody, comic situation, exaggeration, specific speech techniques, etc., many of which they have a folklore basis. They play an essential role in the creation of a literary and artistic text, are integral components of its poetics and stylistics, are closely related to the author's ideas, the time and space depicted, the essence of the images created.
Epistemology in Heterodox Economics?
Authors: Bogenschneider Bret N.
Published: December 2022

The epistemology of Heterodox Economics has been described as a type of methodological pluralism where its relativism is taken as consistent with new versions of science. However, methodological pluralism has severe drawbacks as a means of inquiry. Whereas Economics is often understood in positivist terms as a closed set, Heterodox Economics includes additional concepts and methods. As an open set of ideas, Heterodox Economics is a means to doubt or to not-know and comprises Einfühlung or the creative intuition for the introduction of new ideas into the epistemology of Economics.

Tumors in the middle ear rarely have an adenomatous nature. Adenomatous tumors can manifest as neuroendocrine adenoma, endocrine adenoma and middle ear adenoma (or temporal bone adenoma). They may represent the same tumors at different stages of glandular and neuroendocrine differentiation. Middle ear adenoma refers to rare tumors. The tumor can clinically manifest itself with nonspecific symptoms, which makes timely diagnosis difficult. According to computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, a soft-tissue tumor with clear boundaries usually is detected in the middle ear, without destructive changes and spreading beyond the middle ear. Usually no difference between adenoma and other middle ear tumors, which makes differential diagnosis difficult. The final diagnosis is usually made according to the histological examination. Surgery is the main method of treatment of middle ear adenoma, the purpose of which is radical resection of tumor.

The article addresses the issue of voice changes during the COVID-19 pandemic in patients and convalescents and briefly presents information on voice disorders are their causes. According to the literature, voice changes (phonasthenia, dysphonia, and aphonia) are not uncommon in patients with coronavirus infection, although less common than the typical COVID-19 symptoms, and the incidence of voice change is proportional to the disease severity and can persist in convalescents. Therefore, it requires an additional emphasis on identifying the cause of this symptom and proper treatment/medical rehabilitation of such patients. In the context of treatment in patients with various voice disorders, both functional (phonasthenia) and organic (dysphonia/aphonia), Homeovox can be helpful since its effectiveness has also been proved in treating laryngitis associated with the new coronavirus infection.

Aim. To study the features of the social status, clinic and diagnosis of respiratory tuberculosis comorbidity and viral pneumonia caused by Herpes simplex virus type 1, Cytomegalovirus Human and SARS-CoV-2 in patients with late-stage HIV infection with immunodeficiency.
Materials and methods. The prospective study included 25 patients with respiratory tuberculosis comorbidity with Mycobacterium tuberculosis, herpesvirus and coronavirus pneumonia, and 21 patients with respiratory tuberculosis with cytomegalovirus and coronavirus pneumonia (1a and 2a main groups) and, respectively, 25 and 21 similar patients, but without coronavirus pneumonia (1b and 2b comparison group), in the late stages of HIV infection with immunodeficiency. For the etiological diagnosis of herpesvirus- and cytomegalovirus pneumonia, PCR was used to detect the DNA of Herpes simplex virus type 1 and Cytomegalovirus Human in the diagnostic material of the respiratory tract, and for the etiological diagnosis of coronavirus pneumonia, PCR was used to detect SARS-CoV-2 RNA. Statistical data processing was carried out using the Microsoft Office Excel 2019 program with the calculation of the average in the group and the standard error of the average, confidence interval.
Results. The comorbidity of respiratory tuberculosis, herpes-, cytomegalo- and coronavirus pneumonia in patients with late-stage HIV infection, in the phase of progression and in the absence of ART was characterized by severe immunodeficiency and generalization of tuberculosis with multiple extrapulmonary lesions. This determines the similarity of clinical manifestations and visualization of CT changes in this comorbidity, which makes it difficult to distinguish them due to the simultaneous layering of several pathologies with the same type of clinical manifestations at once and requires a comprehensive etiological diagnosis of specific diseases to prescribe timely comprehensive treatment and reduce the lethality of this heavy contingent of patients.
Conclusion. Patients with tuberculosis of the respiratory system and HIV infection registered in the office of tuberculosis care for HIV-infected in the tuberculosis dispensary represent a high risk group of infection with COVID-19 and CVP disease, and with severe immunodeficiency and GWP and CMVP, should be regularly subjected to preventive studies for timely detection of COVID-19 for the purpose of their emergency isolation and treatment.

A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF HOLTS-WINTERS’ AND NEURAL NETWORK PREDICTION MODELS ON ANNUAL BLOEMFONTEIN’S PRECIPITATION: RISK AVERSION
Authors: Hlalele Bernard Moeketsi
Published: December 2022

Neural Networks are a series of algorithms that mimic the human brain’s operation to recognise various relationships amongst vast amounts of data. These algorithms are better in predictive analytics than linear regression models due to the use of the hidden layers of neutrons. Failure to accurately predict precipitation pattern may lead major risks agriculture and other heavy water-using economic sectors. The present study’s aim was to aid water resources management sector with accurate annual predicted precipitation values for informed decision making. Prior to predictions, data quality controls were conducted, where outliers in the dataset were detected, removed and replaced by expectation maximum algorithm aided by SPSS computer software. Holt-Winter and Neural Network models were comparatively deployed in the predictions of the annual precipitation in the study area. Evident from these results is that NN provided more accurate results in prediction than HW where MSE and MAE for NN were relatively smaller. It can therefore be concluded that NN produces relatively more accurate results than linear models. The study therefore recommends that researchers in meteorology, agrometeorology, water resources management sectors deploy NN for forecasting climate variables for better informed decision making for protection and mitigation of climaterelated risks.

The current study focused on the status of fishing and livelihood status of fishers through employing household interviews, Focus Group Discussions and key informant interviews at Sujanagar Upazila under the Pabna district. The catch was quite substantial during the period of the study, and fishing operation was especially intense from early hours to midday. There were three main types of gears recorded in this study namely nets, traps, and wounding gears and the most used gear was Thela jal (push net). The result of this research indicates that a total of 33 fish species were identified where 18% of catfish, 31% of carp, 9% of snakehead, 6% of eel, 12% of barbs, clupeids and minnows, 18% of perch and 6% of crustaceans were identified. Fishing is the primary source of income for 68% of the fishermen, which has a serious influence on their livelihood. According to the study’s findings, the majority of fishers (62%) had tin-shaded dwellings and 82% of the fishermen had tube well as the source of drinking water. The fishers’ healthcare facilities were poor. About 66% of fishers got electricity and 54% of them belonged to the medium income (TK. 41,000-70,000/year) group. The overall livelihood condition of the fishers was unsatisfying related to socioeconomic obstacles such as an increase in the number of fishers, limited income, a lack of credible revenue-producing activities, credit issues, infringement, price inflation, and resource disputes among stakeholders. So the comprehensive strategies and their efficient execution are essential for improving fishermen’s livelihood.

Spodoptera frugiperda is a migratory pest that infects maize and is noted for its high likelihood of dispersing quickly. It was originally discovered in central and western Africa in 2016, and Nepal’s first incidence of FAW was discovered in a maize crop on May 9th, 2019. S. frugiperda severely harmed maize harvests across the country in 2020, at a greater rate than the previous year. The cause and impact of FAW in Nepal have been identified as Nepal’s open border and a lack of seed quarantine control for late-maturing hybrids and late planting maize types. By heavily feeding on leaves, younger larvae inflict significant crop damage. Integrated pest management (IPM) techniques, which combine physical and mechanical, cultural, botanical, biological, and chemical methods, have been found to be effective in controlling and monitoring FAW in Nepal. As a result, the focus of this research is on the developing implications of FAW in Nepal, as well as control and prevention approaches to reduce the loss caused by FAW through appropriate management alternatives.
