Implementation of Agile Governance Principles Through the Village/Township Monograph Digitization Program in Bantaeng Regency
Authors: Maladevi Shernylia
Published: December 2022

The Government of Indonesia, through Bappenas, launched the Village/Township Monograph Digitization (DMD/K) program in 2020. This program is an effort to digitally document data in villages/twonship so that it can be processed and analyzed as a basis for planning and decision making. Bantaeng Regency was selected as one of the regions implementing this program. This study aims to determine the extent of the implementation of the principles of Agile Governance through the village/township monograph digitization program in Bantaeng Regency. Researchers use a qualitative approach with data collection techniques through observation, interviews and documentation. Data analysis is based on the agile governance theory proposed by Luna et al, (2015). The results of the study indicate that the implementation of agile governance is considered not optimal, there are five principles that have been effective. These principles include: good enough governance, business driven, human focused, systematic & adaptive approach and simple design & continuous refinement. While there is one other principle that is still not running optimally, namely the principle based on quick wins. This is because there is still a need for improvements to the Village/ township SEPAKAT application as the main supporter in this program, and local government commitment is needed in guarding this program by providing adequate data infrastructure facilities. It is hoped that the results of the analysis of the principles of agile governance can be an effort to further improve the quality of government services to the community, especially for the poor in Bantaeng Regency.

Examination and Confiscation of Notarial Deeds for The Purpose of Criminal Law Enforcement without Approval from The Notary Honorary Council
Authors: Saifulloh Moh. Roziq
Published: December 2022

The Notary’s right of refusal through the approval of the Notary Honorary Council (NHC) hinders the practice of criminal law enforcement because it is absolute and there is no further (final) legal remedy, even though a similar policy (beleid) has been revoked by the Constitutional Court. In practice, the notary cannot be examined by investigators, public prosecutors, or judges, unless they have previously obtained NHC approval, as regulated in Article 66 paragraph (1) of Law Number 30 of 2004 as amended by Law Number 2 of 2014 (Notary Position Law). Even if Notary Honorary Council refuses, then there will only be further legal remedies through a lawsuit by the State Administrative Court. In fact, the provisions regarding the Notary’s right of refusal should be ‘determination’ by court decisions (vonnis) as regulated in Article 170 of the Criminal Code, and not ‘administrative determination’ (beschikking) through NHC approval based on the delegation of supervisory authority from state institutions. This paper concludes that every law enforcer in criminal cases (police, prosecutors, and judges) can examine a Notary with the condition of special permission from the Head of the local District Court, approval of direct interested parties, or NHC approval as stipulated in Article 43 of the Criminal Code in conjunction with Article 66 paragraph (1) of the Notary Position Law. This paper is normative research with a statutory approach, conceptual approach, and case approach.
The Possessive Resultative Passive in Ukrainian
Authors: Popovic Ljudmila
Published: December 2022

In Ukrainian, the possessive resultative passive is represented by subject constructions that are comprised of the verb maty (to have) and passive participle (e.g. maju zapysani pisni ‘I have written songs’, mala naskladano troxy hroshey ‘she had saved some money’ etc.). These constructions, which are a grammatical norm in West Slavic, Macedonian, and Bulgarian, are an innovation in Ukrainian that has not been investigated enough. In this paper three models of the possessive resultative passive construction are differentiated. The degrees of their presence in Ukrainian are different. My linguistic data shows that some varieties of the possessive resultative passive construction are productive in the colloquial language, as well as in the electronic and technical discourses in Ukrainian.

Distance Learning, Communication and Affectivity
Authors: Fernández Domínguez Pablo
Published: December 2022

The irruption of new technologies in teaching in general, and in the second language classroom in particular, has had a great impact on didactic and pedagogical methods in recent years. This has led teachers to have to update and adapt the tools and dynamics with which they work in the classroom. The COVID-19 pandemic has meant a forced transformation without the possibility of choice, which may have been traumatic for some sectors of the world of education. The aim of this article is to contextualise the history of virtual and distance didactics, expose its virtues and shortcomings and analyse two of the areas that, in the Author’s opinion, experienced a greater impact in this new scenario: non-verbal communication and the affective dimension.
In the Steps of Marie Curie: La ridícula idea de no volver a verte by Rosa Montero
Authors: Coppola Francesca
Published: December 2022

La ridícula idea de no volver a verte, a 2013 novel by Rosa Montero, tells the story of Marie Curie starting from the pages of her diary. The novel focuses on the discoveries by the scientist, through the construction of a dialogue from which a biographical symmetry emerges between Marie Curie and the Madrid-born author. The aim of this article is to reflect on which kind of story the novel offers; on how and how much the pages of Curie’s diary represent a tool, a stimulus, and a challenge to Montero’s writing process. Finally, the article highlights how the affinity between the two women – and, moreover, the presence and meaning of the scientific theme – underpins the whole narrative until it becomes an unclassifiable book, which fluctuates between autobiography and the truth-fiction dichotomy.
The Accidental haijin: Jorge de Sena and the Poetics of Haiku
Authors: Pereira Paulo
Published: December 2022

Within the mare magnum of Sena’s poetry, the place occupied by haiku is undoubtedly discreet. Sena revisited the Japanese genre in his dual capacity of translator and poet, translating into Portuguese twenty poems by Bashô and later composing ten poems that he expressly classified as haikus. In this article, we propose to examine both the translations and the pastiches that the author wrote, seeking to justify the seduction that both the worldview and the constructive rigor underlying the poetic form have exercised upon him. In his pseudo-haikus, Sena, an accidental haijin, departed from a purely mimetic intent, opting instead for an ingenious ‘haikuisation’ of his own poetics.
¿Y las mujeres dónde están?
Literatura criminal argentina
Authors: Oggioni Mariana
Published: December 2022

Contemporary Argentine women authors of crime literature – such as Claudia Piñeiro, Florencia Etcheves or Alicia Plante – are widely recognised by literary critics and the reading public. However, throughout history, the legacy of the authors who preceded them has been buried under the canonical names of authors such as Borges, Piglia or Mempo Giardinelli. This article aims at examining the impact of authors such as María Angélica Bosco, Syria Poletti and Silvina Ocampo, who wrote novels and detective stories in the mid-twentieth century, as well as Luisa Valenzuela in the 1990s, reaching up to the present day.
Relationship Between Medication Adherence Level and Recovery of Pulmonary Tuberculosis Patients at Gapura Public Health Center Sumenep
Authors: Syafakamila Maulina , Purbowati Rini
Published: December 2022

Pulmonary tuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB).  Regarding this, Indonesia is ranked second globally in terms of tuberculosis prevalence.  TB cases in Sumenep Regency are increasing every year.  The high incidence of TB in Sumenep mostly is caused by the patients' lack of adherence to taking medication.  The level of compliance in taking drugs can be influenced by several factors including age, educational level, and gender. This study aimed to ascertain the association between medication adherence and recovery in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis at the Gapura Public Health Center Sumenep. This study employed an analytical observational design with a cross-sectional approach, utilizing secondary data from medical records and TB.01 treatment cards. The population in this study consisted of 40 individuals. Total sampling is used to choose samples. The study's findings revealed that most patients 62.5%  were male, 37.5% were between the ages of 26-45, 15% were from Gapura Barat, 35% had an elementary school education, and 55% were farmers. As many as 90% of patients adhere to treatment and 87.5% recover. Additionally, statistical tests yielded a p-value of <0.001. The study concludes a correlation between medication adherence and recovery of patients with pulmonary tuberculosis at the Gapura Public Health Center Sumenep. It is advised that health personnel maintain as many programs as possible, including counseling, home visits, and remote monitoring via telecommunications.
Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate and Hemoglobin Levels in Pesticide Poisoning-Farmers
Authors: Cahjono Heru , Siahaan Salmon Charles P.T. , Tannus Ferdinand Aprianto , Perdani Rizki , Suhartono Eko
Published: December 2022

Pesticides are chemicals used to control insects, fungi, weeds, and others. Unrestrained use of pesticides leads to poisoning that has an impact on inflammation and anemia. To provide evidence for this notion, acetylcholinesterase enzyme levels, blood sedimentation rates, and blood hemoglobin levels of farmers exposed to pesticides have been studied. The study design was quantitative in a cross-sectional manner. The participants of the study were all members of the Kurnia Makmur farmer group in Landasan Ulin Utara District, Banjarbaru with a total sample of 60 people. An examination of acetylcholinesterase, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), and hemoglobin enzyme levels was carried out at the Banjar Regency Health Lab. The blood sample was withdrawn from the cubital vein. Spectrophotometry was used to determine acetylcholinesterase enzyme levels, while ESR was determined by the automatic method. Hemoglobin levels are measured by the cyanmethemoglobin method. T-tests were used to compare acetylcholinesterase, ESR, and hemoglobin levels in the normal group and the poisoning group. The study concluded that exposure to a pesticide in farmers' pesticide poisoning may cause inflammation characterized by an increase in ERS. However, there was no decrease in hemoglobin levels.

Authors: Kyriakoulis Konstantinos G , Kyriakoulis Ioannis G , Trontzas Ioannis P , Syrigos Nikolaos , Kyprianou Ioanna A , Fyta Eleni , Kollias Anastasios
Published: December 2022

Background: Cardiac injury (CI) is not a rare condition among hospitalized patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Its prognostic value has been extensively reported through the literature, mainly in the context of observational studies. An impressive number of relevant meta-analyses has been conducted. These meta-analyses present similar and consistent results; yet interesting methodological issues emerge. Methods: A systematic literature search was conducted aiming to identify all relevant meta-analyses on (i) the incidence, and (ii) the prognostic value of CI among hospitalized patients with COVID-19. Results: Among 118 articles initially retrieved, 73 fulfilled the inclusion criteria and were included in the systematic review. Various criteria were used for CI definition mainly based on elevated cardiac biomarkers levels. The most frequently used biomarker was troponin. 30 meta-analyses reported the pooled incidence of CI in hospitalized patients with COVID-19 that varies from 5% to 37%. 32 meta-analyses reported on the association of CI with COVID-19 infection severity, with only 6 of them failing to show a statistically significant association. Finally, 46 meta-analyses investigated the association of CI with mortality and showed that patients with COVID-19 with CI had increased risk for worse prognosis. Four meta-analyses reported pooled adjusted hazard ratios for death in patients with COVID-19 and CI vs those without CI ranging from 1.5 to 3. Conclusions: The impact of CI on the prognosis of hospitalized patients with COVID-19 has gained great interest during the pandemic. Methodological issues such as the inclusion of not peer-reviewed studies, the inclusion of potentially overlapping populations or the inclusion of studies with unadjusted analyses for confounders should be taken into consideration. Despite these limitations, the adverse prognosis of patients with COVID-19 and CI has been consistently demonstrated.

Published: December 2022

Objective: To evaluate the prognostic value of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging in assessing right ventricular strain via meta-analysis of current literature. Background: Right ventricular strain recorded with CMR serves as a novel indicator to quantify myocardial deformation. Although several studies have reported the predictive value of right ventricular strain determined using CMR, their validity is limited by small sample size and low event number. Methods: Embase, Medline and Web of Science were searched for studies assessing the prognostic value of myocardial strain. The primary endpoint was a composite of all-cause mortality, cardiovascular death, aborted sudden cardiac death, heart transplantation and heart failure admissions. Results: A total of 14 studies met the selection criteria and were included in the analysis (n = 3239 adults). The random-effects model showed the association of parameters of right ventricular strain with major adverse cardiac events. Absolute value of right ventricular global longitudinal strain was negatively correlated with right ventricular ejection fraction (hazard ratio: 1.07, 95% confidence interval: 1.05–1.08; p = 0.013). Despite the small number of studies, right ventricular radial strain, right ventricular circumferential strain and right ventricular long-axis strain displayed potential prognostic value. Conclusions: Right ventricular strain measured with CMR is an effective prognostic indicator for cardiovascular disease.
Noninvasive Evaluation of Angiogenesis and Therapeutic Response after Hindlimb Ischemia with an Integrin-Targeted Tracer by PET

Published: December 2022

Background: Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) can severely compromise limb vitality and function. Angiogenesis plays an important role in healing of ischemic lesions. Radiolabeled RGD (Arg-Gly-Asp) peptides specifically targeting αvβ3 integrin are promising tracers for imaging angiogenesis. In this study, we investigated the application of a one-step labeled RGD in evaluation of angiogenesis and therapy response in a mouse model of hindlimb ischemia (HI) by positron emission tomography (PET). Methods: HI was induced by ablation of the femoral artery in mice. PET imaging using 18F-AlF-NOTA-PRGD2 (18F-PRGD2) tracer was performed at day 0 (pre-surgery) and days 3, 7, 14, and 21 after surgery to evaluate hindlimb angiogenesis longitudinally and noninvasively. The control peptide RAD (Arg-Ala-Asp) labeled with a similar procedure and a block agent were used to confirm the specific binding of 18F-PRGD2 to αvβ3 integrin. Ex vivo CD31 staining was performed to detect angiogenesis. In addition, the angiogenic therapy response was monitored with 18F-PRGD2 tracer and immunofluorescence staining to confirm the imaging data. Results: The successful establishment of HI model was confirmed by ultrasound imaging and laser doppler perfusion imaging (LDPI). Specific binding of 18F-PRGD2 to αvβ3 integrin was validated by minimal tracer uptake of the control peptide RAD and significant decrease of tracer accumulation when a block agent was added. Local accumulation of 18F-RRGD2 in ischemic hindlimb was detected as early as 3 days and reached a peak at 7 days after surgery. The temporal change of focal tracer uptake was positively correlated with the pattern of vascular density. Moreover, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) treatment increased the tracer uptake and enhanced angiogenesis, which is consistent with integrin β3 expression. Conclusions: PET imaging of a one-step labeled tracer 18F-PRGD2 targeted to αvβ3 integrin allows longitudinal monitoring of ischemia-induced angiogenesis and noninvasive assessment of VEGF treatment response in a mouse model of hindlimb ischemia. The simple synthesis procedure and in vivo performance of this PET tracer enables the feasibility of future clinical translation in ischemic cardiovascular diseases.

Luerdi, Luerdi. (2008). Kebijakan Keamanan Nasional Pakistan (Pakistan's Strategic Options Sebagai Respon Penjanjian Nuklir Sipil India - AS; 2005-2007). Undergraduate thesis. Department of International Relations, Universitas Riau. ----- This research explains Pakistan’s national security policy as a response to the Indo-US nuclear agreement. Pakistan suspected the nuclear agreement dealt by India and the US for India’s military purposes which could threaten its national security. Pakistan has decided its national security policy called “strategic options” in order to protect its national security as well as to balance India’s power in South Asia especially related to nuclear due to its perception of threat. Pakistan implemented such policy by creating an alliance with a more powerful country which was able to fulfil its national security interest. This research applied the decision-making model by Jensen in which consists of strategic or rational and adaptive model to analyze why Pakistan took such national security policy and how it shall be implemented. These decision-making approach models help to describe Pakistan to act as a rational and pragmatic country. Furthermore, this research applied securitization theory by Buzan to explain why Pakistan protected its national security after the Indo-US nuclear agreement. In order to assist to explain Pakistan’s strategic options, this research applied the concept of power as well. Power was an instrument for Pakistan to get prestige that showed its national ability towards India.
Algebra of core concept transformations. Procedural meta-data for geographic information
Authors: Steenbergen Niels , Top Eric , Scheider Simon , Nyamsuren Enkhbold
Published: December 2022

Transformations are essential for dealing with geographic information. They are involved not only in converting between geodata formats and reference systems, but also in turning geodata into useful information according to some purpose. However, since a transformation can be implemented in various formats and tools, its function and purpose usually remains hidden underneath the technicalities of a workflow. To automate geographic information procedures, we therefore need to model the transformations implemented by workflows on a conceptual level, as a form of procedural knowledge. Although core concepts of spatial information provide a useful level of description in this respect, we currently lack a model for the space of possible transformations between such concepts. In this article, we present the algebra of core concept transformations (CCT). It consists of a type hierarchy which models core concepts as relations, and a set of basic transformations described in terms of function signatures that use such types. Type inference allows us to enrich GIS workflows with abstract machine-readable metadata, by compiling algebraic tool descriptions. This allows us to automatically infer goal concepts across workflows and to query over such concepts across raster and vector implementations. We evaluate the algebra over a set of expert GIS workflows taken from online tutorials.
Linking thermal and rate behavior with fabric and mineralogy of clayey shear zones: Experimental investigation on the El Forn landslide (Andorra)
Authors: Segui Carolina , Tauler Esperança , Hueckel Tomasz , Veveakis Manolis
Published: December 2022

Thermal triaxial tests were carried out on remolded material of core samples of the shear zone of a deep-seated landslide, the El Forn landslide (Andorra). With the thermal triaxial tests, we have obtained thermal and rate sensitivi- ties of the material outside and inside the shear band. Moreover, micro-scale tests were carried out, such as XRPD, SEM-EDS, MicroCT, and plasticity index. The results show that the material inside the shear band has higher thermal sensitivity than outside the shear band. These results are related to the material’s fabric, porosity, and plasticity index. The rate sensitivity value is the same for the samples outside and inside the shear band, being able to correlate the rate sensitivity with the mineralogy content of the ma- terial. This study, thus, aims to understand the mechanical behavior of the material within a shear zone by correlating the thermal and rate sensitivity with the microstructure and mineral phases present in the material.
Differences in metacognitive functioning between obsessive-compulsive disorder patients and highly compulsive individuals from the general population
Authors: Hoven Monja , Rouault Marion , van Holst Ruth , Luigjes Judy
Published: December 2022

Our confidence, a form of metacognition, guides our behavior. Confidence abnormalities have been found in obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). A first notion based on clinical case-control studies suggests that lower confidence in OCD patients leads to clinically observed doubts and lower self-beliefs, whereas a second notion suggests an impairment in confidence estimation and usage leading to compulsive behavior often supported by studies in general population samples. These opposite findings call into question whether findings from the general population are generalizable to patient populations. To test this, we investigated confidence at three hierarchical levels: local confidence in single decisions, global confidence in task performance and higher-order self-beliefs in 40 OCD patients (medication-free, no comorbid diagnoses), 40 controls, and 40 matched high-compulsive individuals from the general population (HComp).In line with the first notion we found that OCD patients exhibited underconfidence at all three levels. In contrast, HComp individuals showed local and global overconfidence and worsened metacognitive sensitivity compared with OCD patients, in line with the second notion. Hence, patterns observed in a general highly-compulsive population, often used as an analogue for OCD, are distinct from those in clinical OCD populations suggesting that OC symptoms in these two groups relate differently to metacognition.
Specificity Versus Generality: A Meta-Analytic Review Of The Association Between Trait Disgust Sensitivity And Moral Judgment
Authors: Donner Michael , Azaad Shaheed , Warren Garth A , Laham Simon
Published: December 2022

Disgust seems to play an important role in moral judgment. However, it is unclear whether the role of disgust in moral judgment is limited to certain kinds of moral domains (versus many) and/or certain types of disgust (versus many). To clarify these questions, we conducted a multilevel meta-analysis (k = 512; N = 72,443) on relations between trait disgust sensitivity and moral judgment (disgust-immorality association). Main analyses revealed a significant overall mean disgust-immorality association (r = .23). Additionally, moderator analyses revealed significant specificity in disgust type and moral domain (grounded in Moral Foundations Theory): effects were stronger for (a) sexual disgust compared to pathogen disgust, (b) sanctity moral judgments compared to other domains of moral judgments, and (c) sexual-sanctity associations compared to other disgust type-moral domain pairings.
Strategic Innovation in US Anti-Sweatshop Movement
Authors: Williams Matthew
Published: December 2022

In this paper, I analyze the ways in which the US anti-sweatshop movement—particularly United Students Against Sweatshops and the Worker Rights Consortium—has engaged in a process of strategic innovation in response to the globalization of apparel production and the concomitant rise of sweatshops. In particular, I seek to understand the process by which movements modify their existing strategies in the face of new challenges. While scholars of social movements have studied the outcome of this process—strategy—there has been less attention to the process of how movements develop strategy—strategizing. This involves a dialectic between experience, consolidated in the form of strategic models, and ideology, i.e. the values, social theory and norms of the movement. When the movement encountered new obstacles, they engaged in strategic innovation through a process of democratic deliberation where they reflected on their past experiences. During this phase, the anti-sweatshop movement drew on their ideology of worker empowerment to help them decide what goals they wanted to achieve and to make sense of how their social environment was creating obstacles for them. Their ideology served as an interpretive-analytic lens through which they reflected on and learned from their past experiences. In this paper, I focus on two periods of innovation in the anti-sweatshop movement: first the development of the Workers Rights Consortium as an independent monitor of apparel companies and second the development of the Designated Suppliers Program as a new means of disciplining them to respect workers’ rights.

This study aims to analyze the alignment of existing land use in the Indramayu Regency in 2021 with the spatial pattern of the RTRW of Indramayu Regency in 2011-2031. The data used in this study include Google Earth images in 2021, maps of the administrative boundaries of the Indramayu Regency, and maps of Indramayu Regency spatial patterns in 2011-2031. The analytical technique used in this research is to use the overlay technique, which is to overlay the existing land use map with a spatial pattern map, then a query is made based on the logical matrix of the alignment of land-use types with spatial patterns which produces a map of the alignment of land use with spatial patterns in Indramayu Regency. The results showed that there were 15 types of land use in Indramayu Regency. The largest land use in Indramayu Regency is rice fields with an area of 131,631 (62.9%) of the total land area of the Indramayu Regency). The majority of land in the Indramayu Regency is still in harmony with the planned spatial pattern by 70.31%, transitional land by 6.70%, and not aligned by 22.98%. Land that is not in harmony is widely found in protected forests and paddy fields. Most of the protected forest area in Ithe Indramayu Regency has been turned into a pond area, and the rice field area has become residential land, both village settlements, and urban settlements.
Host plant preference by the fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) (Noctuidae: Lepidoptera) on the range of potential host plant species
Authors: Tiwari S.
Published: December 2022

Maize is the most important cereal crop after rice and wheat in Asia. Nowadays, maize production is threatened by one invasive pest, the fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) particularly in Africa and Asia, and threatens millions of poor people. Fall armyworm feeds a wide range of crops and non-crops including weeds, with over 353 plant species. But most frequently consumed crops are field corn, sweet corn, wheat, sorghum, sugarcane, Bermuda grass etc. Fall armyworm has six larval stages, the first three stages are less voracious compared to the latter stages. Larvae are very numerous and disperse in large numbers and behave like ‘armyworm’. Insecticides are considered an important tool of FAW management as well as other lepidopteran maize pests. However, these practices are not sustainable and are linked to the environment, biodiversity and farmers' health. Alternative management strategies should be developed by understanding pest biology and ecology. Hence, a series of laboratory choice and paired-choice tests were conducted at Agriculture and Forestry University in May 2021 to evaluate the host plant preference by the fall armyworm. Potential host plants were Zea mays (maize cultivars - Rampur composite, Arun-2 and Rampur hybrid-10), Pennisetum purpureus (Napier), Oryza sativa (rice), Sorghum bicolor (Sorghum), Fagopyrum esculentum (Buckwheat), Vigna unguiculata (Cowpea) and Glycine max (Soybean). In choice tests, FAW preference was ranked as Rampur Composite > Sorghum > Rampur hybrid-10 > Arun-2 > Napier > Rice > Buckwheat > Cowpea > Soybean. Rampur composite and sorghum were the most preferred host plants, Rampur hybrid, Arun-2 and Napier were the medium preferred, rice was categorized as the low preferred and other host plants such as buckwheat, cowpea and soybean were the least preferred host plant of fall armyworm. In paired-choice tests, Rampur composite was more preferred than sorghum, but not significantly so. These research findings are useful to utilize in habitat manipulation strategies for fall armyworm management. Most preferred plant species can be deployed as trap crops and least preferred host plants can be used as repellent or push crops in a push-pull strategy. Such host plants in-and-around the main field can reduce the fall armyworm damage and reduce pesticide amount in main crops.
Determinants for adoption of foundation rice seed production: Evidence from Kailali district of Nepal
Authors: Dhungana J.
Published: December 2022

Rice seed production is an emerging agricultural enterprise to increase the income of farmers in Kailali. However, adoption of seed production technology is very limited in spite of its potential, which results in the poor supply of quality seed for its multiplication. Thus, this paper examines the influencing factors affecting farmers’ decision to adopt the foundation rice seed production in Kailali, Nepal. In total 158 households, 116 certified, and 42 foundation seed producers were selected using a stratified random sampling technique. The primary data were collected from September to November 2021. T-test, chi-square, and binary logistic model were applied for data analysis using SPSS. The result revealed that land size, experience, gender of household head, access to credit, training, extension contact, and type of family are statistically significant between two categories. Besides, the empirical result of logistic regression analysis indicated that out of twelve, six explanatory variables such as age, experience, training, extension contact, education, and type of family had significantly influence on adoption decision. Therefore, it is concluded the rice seed training programs and increasing the extension services would be beneficial to motivate the farmers for the production of foundation rice seed production.

Maize (Zea mays) has been one of the most popularly grown crops in the mid hills of Nepal. With a view of assessing the present agronomic management and constraints of maize cultivation, a field survey was carried out in the summer of 2020 at Madichaur, Rolpa, Nepal. Simple random sampling procedure was used to collect data from 100 respondents using a semi structured interview schedule. Information regarding the productivity and adoption of improved technologies by maize growing farmers were also collected. The data were processed and analyzed using MS-Excel and SPSS. Results revealed maize-based cropping system as the major cropping system (65%) with rainy season maize being the dominant one (76%). Varietal selection was primarily based on the local prevalence whereas own preserved seeds were used by majority of the respondents. Local plough was the major tool for land preparation whereas majority of the respondent used FYM as nutrient source and followed sowing behind the plough. Gap filling, thinning, weeding, earthing up was quite common among the respondents, however their intensity varied. External cob storage was the common method of storage. Biotic stress was identified as the major bottleneck for increasing maize productivity followed by lack of irrigation and technical know how.

Udder and teat conformations and measurements play a vital role in milk productivity and mastitis resistance in dairy buffaloes. The study was conducted on apparently healthy 24 Murrah buffaloes running on different parities selected from 3 different farms in the Chitwan district of Nepal to find the relation between phenotypic characteristics of udder and milk yield. The shapes of the teat and udder were evaluated by a visual appraisal that revealed 42.7% funnel, 26% bottle, 16.7% cylindrical, 14.6% conical-shaped teats, and 37.5% round, 33.3% bowl, and 16.7% goaty, and 12.5% stepped shaped udders. The average length, width, and depth of the udder were determined as 54.50±0.92 cm, 19.33±0.46 cm, and 27.50±1.10 cm, respectively, while the respective length and diameter of the teat were 8.46±0.17 cm and 3.59±0.07 cm. Within udder quarters, teat length was significantly different (p < 0.05) though the diameter was non-significant. However, the teat length and teat diameter differed along the teat and udder shapes showing the highest measures at bottle-shaped teats and goaty-shaped udder. The average milk yield/day recorded was 5.90±0.36 kg per buffalo. Higher milk yield was observed in the round-shaped udder and conical-shaped teat. The correlation of udder width (r= 0.237, p<0.05) and teat length (r= 0.222, p<0.05) was observed significantly positive but that of teat to floor distance (r= -0.232, p<0.05) was negative with milk yield. Hence, the selection of Murrah buffaloes for milk production traits should consider the dimensions of the teat and udder.

Among the factors that contribute the most for increasing maize cultivated area and grain yield in Southern Brazil are the crop genetic selection, soil, crop and water management and recent advances in crop remote monitoring techniques. The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) obtained with remote sensing techniques may be used to provide historical and real-time evaluation characteristics of a particular crop, such as density and vigor without neither field visits, nor interfering directly or indirectly in crop growth and development. This procedure may substantially reduce monitoring or control costs. In this paper, a temporal profile series of NDVI was generated during the maize crop growth period with the objective of evaluating the crop phenology of seven irrigated areas under center pivots. Eight images from LANDSAT5/TM satellite, of the 222/80 and 223/80 path/row were used. The quantitative intervals of NDVI mean values were evaluated from the temporal profile series based on the crop sowing and harvest dates. The NDVI values varied from: 0.18-0.53for initial crop stage; 0.54-0.80for rapid crop growth; 0.20-0.74 for mid-season; and 0.28-0.41for late season. The use of NDVI allows a good differentiation among the maize crop stages of irrigated areas. There has been a drop in NDVI values in the R1 stage, at 54 days after sowing (DAS), due to detasseling. Maximum NDVI value (0.80) was observed at 63DAS, with maize phenology between R2-R5 stages. NDVI values decreased from R6 growth stage till harvest (134 DAS) due to crop maturity and senescence. During this period the average NDVI value was 0.40.
