Implementación de Diseño Contexto–Entorno: Estudio Ecocéntrico en Paradas de Autobús
Authors: Luna Rodríguez Sofía , Godino Peña Francisco Javier
Published: June 2021

Hoy en día, las teorías de diseño antropocéntricas explican que el lado empático y centrado en el usuario han sido parte fundamental en la creación de productos, servicios y sistemas a lo largo de los años, sin embargo, los resultados no logran ser lo suficientemente competentes para considerar factores externos al usuario como ambientes naturales, contextos externos al humano, tendencias y relaciones a la futurología. Es por esto que implementar enfoques más amplios y considerando aspectos valiosos como la biología, sociología, estudio de tendencias, antropología y medio ambiente se puede llegar a lograr, junto con el factor humano-empático, un resultado de diseño completo.

Este proyecto nace de la inquietud de aplicar nuevos enfoques de métodos de diseño para la creación de productos, espacios y sistemas que conviven en la vida cotidiana del ser humano, a través de una metodología basada en el contexto-entorno llamada “Generación de ideas orientadas a los ecosistemas”, en este caso, para una parada de autobús en la Cd. de Monterrey, Nuevo León, México.

El concepto de diseño seleccionado presenta las características relevantes definidas a partir de la generación de ideas orientadas a los ecosistemas y cumpliendo con la Norma Técnica Estatal de Aceras de Nuevo León, permitiendo un diseño completo a partir de los objetivos del contexto al cual va dirigido.

Published: June 2021

En el presente artículo se expone una valoración de las primeras obras del arquitecto portugués Álvaro Siza Vieira, desde la perspectiva de la definición conceptual en relación con las características del contexto físico en donde se encuentran emplazadas. Constituye una invitación a reflexionar sobre uno los principios inherentes al objeto arquitectónico que es la relación de edificio con el lugar y se cuestiona como punto de partida el uso desproporcionado que se tiene, en el medio académico-estudiantil principalmente, de la conceptualización análoga que evoca formas innovadoras sin sustento, bajo el amparo de la subjetividad y la creatividad individual pero sin el compromiso con el entorno preexistente. Se presenta la descripción conceptual de cuatro edificios emblemáticos analizados: las Piscinas des mares, el restaurante Boa Nova, la Escuela de Arquitectura y el Centro Gallego y se concluye con una reflexión sobre la obra del arquitecto y con una serie de tópicos que permita a los estudiantes valorar los temas de análisis como un camino hacia una conceptualización vinculada al lugar.

As Poaceae (gramíneas) são a base da alimentação dos ruminantes. Essas plantas precisam expressar toda sua capacidade de produção de biomassa com altos valores de nutrientes para suprir as necessidades dos animais de produção. Como exemplo disso, temos o capim-elefante (Pennisetum purpureum), uma forrageira de elevado valor nutritivo, podendo ser utilizada tanto na forma de ensilado quanto de pastejo. Neste contexto, objetivou-se nesta revisão buscar informações na bibliografia que possam conferir características agronômicas, morfológicas e de manejo ao capim elefante e suas novas cultivares BRS Kurumi e BRS Capiaçu. O capim elefante de porte alto para pastejo traz limitações, devido a seu hábito de crescimento apresentar alongamento rápido dos entrenós. Isso resulta em um porte fora do alcance de captação pelos animais e na necessidade de roçadas frequentes. A Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária, iniciou um programa de criação do capim elefante, desenvolvendo cultivares para sistema de corte e transporte e pastoreio. Neste cenário, foi desenvolvida a nova cultivar BRS Kurumi, com reduzido alongamento de colmos o que facilita o manejo do pasto com porte adequado ao pastejo pelos animais. A cultivar representa uma alternativa devido a sua alta produção de forragem, excelente estrutura de pasto e valor nutritivo. No que se refere ao sistema de corte e transporte, a BRS Capiaçu é a nova cultivar de capim elefante de porte alto desenvolvida, podendo ser utilizada como capineira ou silagem, com elevado potencial de biomassa e reduzidos teores de fibra.

Authors: REZNIK Nadiya , KOSTYLIANU Vitalii
Published: June 2021

The functioning of most medium-sized, small and large enterprises in today's realities remains at a low level of professionalism. Many business executives do not pay enough attention to analytical work, do not develop new strategies and do not improve the proposal related to crisis management. Only the enterprise management of the adequate level of qualification can avoid all the negative consequences of the crisis.
The main task of enterprises is to comply with the requirements of the enterprise anti-crisis policy, namely the calculation of financial ratios that reflect its financial stability. The coefficients allow to consider the company from different sides, among which the most important in the implementation of anti-crisis management are: the efficiency of current assets using, own and borrowed funds, using of production potential, effective management in the enterprise, the dynamics of production and sales of products, depreciation of fixed assets, using of investment capital.
In addition to monitoring indicators, crisis management involves identifying problem areas in the enterprise and developing measures to eliminate them. The final part of the enterprise's anti-crisis policy is the implementation of these measures, which prevents the bankruptcy of the enterprise at the stage of possible threats and problems. Unfortunately, modern entrepreneurs neglect this measure and therefore find themselves in a difficult financial and managerial situation.
Another issue of crisis management is the issue of securities, which allows to raise additional funds used by the enterprise as a means of eliminating possible bankruptcy. This process is a means of lending in today's realities that is more effective than loans made through the banking system.
In today's market economy, business development is the driving force, so we believe that the topic of crisis management is relevant, because such measures are developing enterprises, which in turn develops the economic sectors and the country's economy.

Authors: LAGODIIENKO Volodymyr , BOGDANOV Olexander , LAGODIIENKO Vladyslav
Published: June 2021

Introduction. Wheat production is a leading industry in both the agricultural sector and the public sector as a whole. This is due to his crucial role in ensuring the food security of the country. Considering the leading role of wheat grain in the list of Ukrainian export commodities, there is a need to find a compromise between ensuring the country's food security and increasing the presence of these Ukrainian products on the global market.
The purpose of the article is assessment of the place and determination of the role of Ukrainian producers in the world wheat grain market, identification of factors that impede the expansion of the presence of relevant domestic products in the global market.
Results. The analysis of world production, final stocks and consumption of wheat grain has allowed to determine the increase of production volumes with excess of consumption rates, which led to price stabilization. An analysis of the volume and structure of world wheat grain exports has made it possible to determine that Ukraine is in the top ten. The largest importers of Ukrainian wheat in Europe are Italy and Spain; Indonesia, Bangladesh and Thailand in Asia. Asia in the overall structure in the 2014-2018 average had about 49 %. Africa ranks second after Asia, with a volume of 28 %, with half imported by Egypt. The prospects for the markets of Egypt, Morocco and Tunisia for export of Ukrainian grain have been substantiated, taking into account trends in population growth, complications of natural conditions for cultivation and low transportation costs. The cost forecast of 1 wheat metric ton for the future is made. The grain market segment occupied by Ukraine according to the quality of its products is considered.
The price and quality of imported and exported wheat grain in Ukraine are analyzed. The necessity of increasing the volume of mineral fertilizers application to increase the yield to prove the problem of these disproportions has been proved.
Conclusions. Quality of products will become a key factor of competitiveness in the world market of wheat production in the near future. North African countries – Egypt, Morocco and Tunisia – are a promising direction for expanding global markets for Ukrainian wheat. The biggest problem for domestic producers of wheat grain is its poor quality in many parameters. To improve the quality, it is necessary to significantly increase the amount of application of minimal fertilizers.

REGIONAL FEATURES OF FOREIGN TRADE IN AGRO-FOOD PRODUCTS
Authors: MUDRAK Ruslan
Published: June 2021

Introduction. The intensification of globalization processes that characterize the beginning of the new millennium has led to the emergence of supranational structures of regional and global scope. The deepening of Ukraine's integration into the international trading space causes new opportunities and threats. The relatively large size of the territory of Ukraine as a European state and its administrative structure causes a number of differences in the socio-economic development of its regions. Identifying regional differences in foreign trade in agri-food products and their causes is an urgent task of the study, given the leading role of the agro-industrial sector in Ukraine's foreign trade.
The aim of the study is to identify regional differences of foreign trade in agri-food products and identify their causes.
Results of work. The analysis results of foreign trade in agro-food products on the average for 2016-2018 by regions are given. It is determined that the four leading export regions are Mykolaiv, Odesa, Kyiv and Vinnytsia, as they account for about 47,9 %. The regions were evaluated according to the following indicators: the volume of regional exports, the volume of production of cereals and legumes, the production of sunflower seeds. According to the results of the analysis, each region was assigned a corresponding rank, on the basis of the values of which the correlation coefficients of the regions ranks were calculated. It is determined that there is a close link between the region's place in the national agri-food export ratings and the production of cereals and legumes; and there is a median link between the region's place in the national agri-food export and sunflower seed ratings. Imports of agro-food products by regions are considered, where Kiev region is the absolute leader, which together with Odessa, Lviv and Dnipropetrovsk regions have 64.5 % of all corresponding imports. The analysis of agro-food products import by groups of goods is presented. The regions ranking by import volumes of agri-food products and disposable income per person has been done. The obtained coefficient of correlation of ranks testifies to the average degree of relation close to high.
Conclusions. It is proved that the differences in the volumes of crop production mainly cereals, legumes and sunflower are the basis for regional differentiation of agricultural food exports, which testifies to the raw nature of exports, stagnation of livestock and unsatisfactory development of the domestic food industry. Differentiation of imports of agro-industrial products is caused by the difference in income of the population by regions.
Keywords: agro-food products, export, import, balance, production, raw materials, processing, disposable income.

The influence levels on the management of commodity specialization of agri-cultural enterprises are broadened: nationwide, regional and local, for which the means of influence are allocated. The rea-sons for the imbalance in the structure of agricultural production are considered. The groups of factors that influence the resources reproduction as factors of agricultural production are distinguished: socio-political, socio-economic, priorities of state agrarian policy, using level of agricultural land and other resources, natural and climatic conditions, seasonality of production, energy and resource intensity, innovative technologies implementation. The structure of Ukrainian agriculture on 3 levels in terms of crop, livestock and hunting is offered. The necessity factors of systematic influence on commodity specialization management of agrarian enterprises are determined. The determinants of commodity specialization of agricul-tural enterprises are presented.
Conclusions. The architecture of the organizational and economic mechanism for managing the commodity speciali-zation of agricultural enterprises is provided, which includes the internal environment of the enterprise, the direct mecha-nism, options for development, the conditions influence of the external environment functioning and the factors of influence on the specialization of the agricultural enterprise. The concept takes into account tendencies of economic potential for-mation, internal infrastructure of the enterprise, basic architectural decisions and standards, management model and re-quirements to management processes, and also defines principles of transition from the existing state of the enterprise to the target one.
Keywords: commodity specialization, agricultural enterprises, structure of agriculture, determinants, organizational and economic mechanism, crop production, livestock.

An example of Germany’s transport and logistics cluster «Frankfurt am Main» is considered. The content of the cluster approach is considered. Cluster benefits are provided. The main participants of the transport and logistics cluster are considered. The model of formation of transport and logistics cluster at regional level is presented. The main tasks of forming a transport and logistic cluster are determined. In-fluence factors on the formation of transport and logistics clusters are generalized: consistent state eco-nomic policy, globalization of transport and logistics infrastructure, horizontal integration of the logistics infrastructure complex and the companies that serve it, outsourcing of transport and logistics services, forecasting and minimizing the level of risk. The directions of the analysis for understanding the weak-nesses and strengths of the region for the formation of cluster structures are determined. Prospects of crea-tion of transport and logistics cluster in Kherson region are considered and its structural elements are defined. The content of the cluster is considered.
The activity of the transport and logistics cluster of the region promotes the use of innovative poten-tial through the creation of an efficient transport complex. The cluster maximally takes into account the effect of the market mechanism. The cluster approach is one of the most advanced industry management technologies.
