Published: January 2024

Sowing dates are an important factor in determining grain yield as they fall within the climatic changes, as the temperature plays an important role in increasing the yield. For the purpose of evaluating the planting dates during the winter season, a field experiment was conducted at Experiments Station, affiliated to the Department of Field Crops/College of Agricultural Engineering Sciences, University of Baghdad during 2020-21. The aim was to study the effect of planting dates on soft wheat cultivar (KM5180). A randomized complete block design (R. C. B. D.) was used with three replications. Sowing dates were used as main parameters viz., November 22nd (D1), December 6th (D2) and December 20th (D3). The results showed the superiority of the sowing date (D1) by giving the highest average grain yield of 5.740 t/ha as a result of the superiority of the plants of this date in the number of spikes/m2 (441.7), the biological yield (17.896 t/ha), the harvest index (32.09%) and the plant height (101.387 cm) and the weight of 1000 grains/g was 39.97 g, significantly superior to dates (D2) and (D3), which gave an average of 4.423 and 2.428 t/ha, 358.3 and 331.7 spikes/m2, 14.556 and 11.353 t/ha, 30.38 and 21.39%, 89.033 and 85.387 cm and 39.11 and 28.28 cm, respectively, The reason for the superiority was due to the appropriate environmental conditions accompanying during the growth period, including the appropriate temperature that gave the products of photosynthesis sufficient to meet the requirements to complete the stages of its growth and form the initiators of its organs in an optimal form, which was positively reflected on the components of the appointment (D1). As for the delay in the dates D2 and D3, the high temperatures coincided with the critical growth stages of plant growth, which reflected negatively on some traits. 7. Sequentially a grain/spike and (11.43, 11.54 and 11.29 cm, respectively. While date D3 was significantly superior in terms of the number of spikelets/spike with an average of (16,800) spikelets/spike over dates D2 and D1, and they gave an average of (16,300 and 16,200) spikelets/spike, respectively. In the light of the obtained results, we conclude that the shares of the total dates (D2) and (D3) reached 54% higher than the contribution of the sowing date (D1), which amounted to 46%, while the late sowing date (D3) achieved half of the share of the share in the grain yield.

Authors: AMINISARTESHNIZI MEHRNOUSH
Published: January 2024

Dorylaimida members are medium to large nematodes that live in the soil and create a balanced environment towards improving yield in various crops. Aporcella species are omnivores and, therefore, can feed on other nematodes around the roots of maize, resulting in better production. This species must be identified correctly because it is a beneficial nematode and can enhance the yield of maize through the microbial balancing of the soil. On the other hand, maize is one of the most important crops in Limpopo Province in South Africa. Therefore, this molecular study was conducted in 2023 at Limpopo University to identify the nematode from South Africa's soils using 28S rDNA marker. The recovered nematode was extracted using the tray method, and then its DNA was extracted using the Chelex method. The nematode was identified as Aporcella simplex (Thorne and Swanger). Afterwards, 28S rDNA was amplified using specific primers to identify the nematode at the molecular level. The Nblast analysis based on the large subunit ribosomal DNA showed that South African A. simplex had 99% similarity (MN262455) with the South African population. Phylogenetic analysis using maximum likelihood placed this species with those molecularly identified as A. simplex in the same clade with highly supported (100) bootstrap values. In conclusion, this species was determined using 28S rDNA; however, other rDNA markers, such as ITS rDNA and mtDNA, are recommended for a better understanding of A. simplex phylogeny.

Enterobacter species are gram-negative, motile, non-spore-forming, rod-shaped, facultatively anaerobic bacteria of the Burkholderiaceae family. Burkholderia includes several species, which can be risky pathogenic bacteria to vegetables, including cabbage, and therefore have an impact on the fresh production of cabbage. This study was conducted to isolate and identify Burkholderia from a cabbage field in Limpopo Province, South Africa. Therefore, this molecular study was conducted in 2023 at Limpopo University to identify the bacterium associated with cabbage filed from South Africa's soils using 16S rDNA marker. The DNA was extracted using the Chelex method. The bacterium was identified as Burkholderia. The Nblast analysis showed that South African Burkholderia had 95% similarity with a population from South Africa (MG593873). Phylogenetic analysis using maximum likelihood placed this species with those molecularly identified as Burkholderia in the same clade with highly supported (100) bootstrap values. In conclusion, this species was identified using 16S rDNA properly. However, using other DNA markers for a better understanding of Burkholderia phylogeny is recommended.
The role of agroforestry in increasing the economic fertility of arable lands in arid regions
Authors: KORNEEVA E. A.
Published: January 2024

The solution to the problem of agricultural producers' rational and effective use of land resources depends heavily on the economic evaluation of firms' resource potential. One of the main resources of enterprises in the production process is fixed capital or fixed production assets, of which protective forest stands are an integral part. Solving the tasks of increasing the economic fertility of arable lands in arid areas, provides a significant increase in agricultural production. In order to study this issue in more detail, a study was conducted during 2021 at the laboratory of Mathematical Modelling of the Federal Scientific Center for Agroecology, Integrated Melioration and Protective Afforestation of the Russian Academy of Sciences, located in the Volgograd region (Russia), to identify the role of protective forest plantations in increasing the economic fertility of arable land. To do this, we conducted a score assessment of its main indicators – yield and net income from the sale of wheat – for various variants of land objects with open and forested spaces within the main natural zones of the Volgograd region (Russia). The comparison showed that under all spatial-zonal scenarios, forested land has a much greater potential for improving the fertility of arable land than open land. At the same time, the benefits received from the forest reclamation of fields are many times higher than the costs of this event, which indicates the economic feasibility of measures in the region.

Wheat is an important global food security commodity; however, its production is affected by abiotic and biotic stresses associated with climate change. Therefore, a study was conducted during 2019-21 at Kazakh Research Institute of Agriculture and Crop Production, Almaty, Kazakhstan to evaluate the effects of salicylic and oxalic acid on the stress tolerance and yield of wheat (cv. Arai). The three-factorial field study was laid out in RBD comprising of different rates of salicylic acid (0, 0.25 and 0.50 mM), and oxalic acid (0, 0.10, and 0.20 mM) which were applied via foliar and seed treatments. Both salicylic and oxalic acid exerted significant main effects on wheat without any interactions. While polyphenol oxidase and peroxidase activities increased by salicylic acid, polyphenol oxidase activity decreased (by 16%) by oxalic acid. Foliar treatment of both salicylic and oxalic acids increased enzyme activities than the seed treatment. Wheat spikelet (by 14-8%) and grain yield (by 5-8%) were increased by 0.25 and 0.50 mM salicylic acid, compared to the control. Likewise, grain yield significantly increased by 9-19% with 0.10 and 0.20 mM oxalic acid, respectively. Oxalic acid significantly improved the wheat stress tolerance than that of the salicylic acid. Results suggested that 0.50 mM salicylic acid or 0.20 mM oxalic acid, or in combination, can be applied to improve wheat stress tolerance and grain yield.

Kelurahan Penanggungan khususnya RT. 9, RW. 8 merupakan salah satu wilayah yang berada di Kecamatan Klojen, Kota Malang dimana sebagian besar didominasi oleh kawasan permukiman padat sehingga sangat sedikit lahan yang tersisa untuk bercocok tanam. Namun demikian hal ini tidak menyurutkan semangat warganya untuk melakukan penghijauan dalam kondisi keterbatasan lahan tersebut. Masyarakat memanfaatkan setiap sudut yang tersedia dengan mengembangkan sistem pertanian kota (urban farming) dengan cara yang sudah dipahami.  Namun demikian masih belum optimal, khususnya dalam hal pemeliharaan tanaman. Oleh karena itu diperlukan pendampingan untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan dan keterampilan sehingga didapatkan hasil budidaya tanaman yang lebih baik dan menguntungkan bagi warga. Tujuan kegiatan ini adalah terjadinya peningkatan pengetahuan dan keterampilan masyarakat sasaran. Kegiatan dilaksanakan melalui beberapa tahap yaitu persiapan, pelaksanaan, monitoring, dan evaluasi serta analisis data dan pelaporan. Hasil pengabdian memberikan dampak positif kepada masyarakat berupa semakin tertatanya tanaman yang ada dan meningkatnya pengetahuan warga.

This research aims to determine the effect of integrating life skills into a soccer training program for positive youth development. The research design used in this research is Pretest-Posttest Control Group Design. The data collection technique used in this research is a questionnaire. The instrument used is the Life Skills Scale for Sport (LSSS) questionnaire instrument. The sampling technique uses purposive sampling. The research results show tcount (17.687) > ttable (1.671), which means there is a significant difference in results between the group that was integrated with life skills compared to the group that was not integrated with life skills. Based on these differences, it can be seen that the life skills integration group is better than the group that is not life skills integrated. This proves that the goal can be programmed and planned as well as possible in order to get good results. This research provides a recommendation for teachers and coaches to be able to create programs that are intentionally or integrated into various sports activities to provide better results than those that do not. These results certainly provide a recommendation for future researchers to continue and carry out research that can also have a good impact on athletes in sports.

Kejaksaan sebagai sub sistem peradilan pidana di Indonesia memiliki kewenangan melakukan restorative justice pada tindak pidana penyalahgunaan narkotika berdasarkan Pedoman Jaksa Agung Nomor 18 Tahun 2021. Penelitian ini mengkaji mengenai landasan serta akibat hukum dari penerapan restorative justice oleh kejaksaan terhadap tindak pidana penyalahgunaan narkotika. Dalam penelitian ini menggunakan metodologi yuridis normatif. Melalui penelitian ini ditemukan permasalahan terkait penerapan restorative justice tersebut, baik dari segi landasan hukum yang tidak memiliki kesesuaian pengaturan antara aturan yang satu dengan aturan lainnya maupun terhadap akibat hukum berupa surat ketetapan penghentian penuntutan sebagai produk hukumnya yang tidak ada upaya hukum. Oleh karenanya, diperlukan evaluasi serta perbaikan aturan internal kejaksaan terkait dengan restorative justice. Selain itu, Kitab Undang-Undang Hukum Acara Pidana (KUHAP) perlu direvisi untuk mengakomodir penerapan restorative justice.

Published: January 2024

This study aims to observe the impact of financial inclusion from a micro perspective, availability of banking services, on income inequality. The analysis is carried out by using an annual panel data set constructed with a sample of eight developing countries of the Asia Pacific region for the period of 2005-2019 to empirically estimate the impact of the availability of banking services on income inequality. A composite variable consisting of number of bank branches and automated teller machines is developed to measure the availability of banking services, whereas income inequality is measured by the latest release of the Standardized World Income Inequality Database (SWIID). The results show that greater availability of banking services robustly reduces income inequality across countries. Besides, the study generates evidence that greater women empowerment and better regulatory quality can reduce income inequality. In contrast, urbanization and globalization can deteriorate income equality in the short run. The central message of this study is in favor of further extending the formal banking services to the unbanked segments and females of the population and enhancing regulatory roles with better policy measures to maximize the grand social welfare and ensure sustainable development.
