description: Barbados food import bill has been rising steadily over the last 10 years by 20.4% and is expected to continue to rise due to the volatility and increasing food prices of agricultural commodities on the international market. This growing increase of 20.4% has highlighted the need for the country to start producing more of the foods which can be grown locally which are currently being imported, to help reduce this growing trend. With one of the country’s natural resources (land) being reduced annually, poor crop yields and low use of improved crop varieties, agricultural production has been severely disadvantaged resulting in the island’s food security being drastically compromised. The government aware of the gravity of this situation has committed itself to provide safe, adequate, nutritious and affordable food to its people and is relying upon the Agriculture Sector to help in this effort. The Ministry of Agriculture has taken the initiative and has focused its attention on the tomato sector embarking on an intensive research program to select varieties amenable to the fresh and processing market. Two varietal trials were conducted during the period February – May and July – November 2015 at Graeme Hall, Christ Church (south of the island) and Sweet Vale, St. George (central) to evaluate the performance and quality of three new imported plum varieties of tomatoes against two locally established varieties of tomatoes. The research showed that the imported plum varieties gave lower production compared to the other two locally established varieties but were the preferred choice among consumers based on firmness, size, fleshiness and taste. However, total yields of the imported plum varieties at Graeme Hall were significantly higher at the 1% S.L. when compared to their yield at St. George where significance was at the 5% S.L.

Networking genetic regulation and neural computation: Directed network topology and its effect on the dynamics

description: Two different types of directed networks are investigated, transcriptional regulation networks and neural networks. The directed network structure are studied and also shown to reflect the different processes taking place on the networks. The distribution of influence, identified as the the number of downstream vertices, are used as a tool for investigating random vertex removal. In the transcriptional regulation networks we observe that only a small number of vertices have a large influence. The small influences of most vertices limit the effect of a random removal to in most cases only a small fraction of vertices in the network. The neural network has a rather different topology with respect to the influence, which are large for most vertices. To further investigate the effect of vertex removal we simulate the biological processes taking place on the networks. Opposed to the presumpted large effect of random vertex removal in the neural network, the high density of edges in conjunction with the dynamics used makes the change in the state of the system to be highly localized around the removed vertex.

description: Globalization and the advancement of technologies have contributed to an extended and more complex food chain and increased competitiveness in the local and world markets. Food manufacturing companies are therefore forced to rely on efficient production systems which require individuals with specific skills. This study seeks to identify the skills that are necessary for quality food production and to determine if the undergraduate food programs adequately equip students with these skills. It also determined the advantages and disadvantages of employing graduates with adequate/limited theoretical and practical food skills. A total of 33 food processing companies in Trinidad participated in the study. Questionnaires were administered to participants using electronic mails and interviews. Data was collected on the characteristics, employees’ skills, and the employment needs of each food companies. Fourteen types of food companies were surveyed across Trinidad. Majority of the respondents (94.1%) stated that University of the West Indies (UWI) graduates working in their companies lack the practical skills required (P=0.001); while 58% stated these graduates were not adequately trained (P=0.23). Food companies indicated that the most important skills needed were: teamwork, communication and people skills (P=0.001). There were several advantages and disadvantages of employing persons with adequate/limited food skills; the most popular advantage was “employees carrying out tasks efficiently” and the most popular disadvantage was “employees producing poor quality work” (P=0.13 and P=0.85 respectively). This research provided an overview on the food skills of graduates from the UWI food programs currently working in the food and beverage sector of Trinidad. It also indicated the most highly desired skills by employers and provided recommendations for the improvement of skills in the food sector.

description: В статье отмечается как необратимый факт: словарь и тематика современной социологии стали постмодернистскими. Подобная смена парадигмы нуждается в оценке. При этом известно, что язык оценки не должен совпадать с язык критикуемого феномена. Поэтому автор избрал «иронический стиль» для своего повествования. Главные объекты «иронии»: 1) «универсальное» рассыпалось на осколки «локального» (на примере концепта «плюрализма цивилизаций»); 2) «фактоцентризм», когда сам факт существования вещей оправдывает их существование; 3) «Инаковость» вытеснила понятие «нормы» и проч. Вывод: современное общество нуждается в «онтологии для социума», где под онтологией понимается подлинное, а непроизвольное бытие (социальных) вещей.

description: In a context of reflections around the next Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) reform, the European Commission is considering the possibility to decentralize the provision of environmental goods towards lower level of governments. We examine the gains of such potential policy using a simple model of an economy constituted of homogeneous regions and considering that agriculture produces jointly local and global PGs (public goods). We assume that the central government faces lower deadweight losses than the local government but that the local government can better target their subsidies. Our analytical results present the differences of landscape structure (constituted of two areas) and welfare in three cases of governance: full-centralization (EU is in charge of environmental good provision), full-decentralization (local government is in charge of environmental good provision) and partial decentralization (EU allocates a share of its budget to the local government for the provision of environmental goods). We apply our theoretical model to the case of abandoned wetlands in Brittany. Based on this example and the actual CAP budget dedicated for environmental good provision, we illustrate the difference of welfare between the three cases of governance.

description: Differential privacy is a rigorous privacy standard that has been applied to a range of data analysis tasks. To broaden the application scenarios of differential privacy when data records have dependencies, the notion of Bayesian differential privacy has been recently proposed. However, it is unknown whether Bayesian differential privacy preserves three nice properties of differential privacy: sequential composability, parallel composability, and post-processing. In this paper, we provide an affirmative answer to this question; i.e., Bayesian differential privacy still have these properties. The idea behind sequential composability is that if we have $m$ algorithms $Y_1, Y_2, \ldots, Y_m$, where $Y_{\ell}$ is independently $ε_{\ell}$-Bayesian differential private for ${\ell}=1,2,\ldots,m$, then by feeding the result of $Y_1$ into $Y_2$, the result of $Y_2$ into $Y_3$, and so on, we will finally have an $\sum_{\ell=1}^m ε_{\ell}$-Bayesian differential private algorithm. For parallel composability, we consider the situation where a database is partitioned into $m$ disjoint subsets. The $\ell$-th subset is input to a Bayesian differential private algorithm $Y_{\ell}$, for ${\ell}=1,2,\ldots,m$. Then the parallel composition of $Y_1$, $Y_2$, $\ldots$, $Y_m$ will be $\max_{\ell=1}^m ε_{\ell}$-Bayesian differential private. The post-processing property means that a data analyst, without additional knowledge about the private database, cannot compute a function of the output of a Bayesian differential private algorithm and reduce its privacy guarantee.

description: Based on a multi-particle-state stimulated Raman adiabatic passage approach, a comprehensive theoretical study on the ultrafast optical manipulation of electron spins in quantum wells is presented. In addition to corroborating the experimental findings [Science {\bf 292}, 2458 (2001)], we improve the expression of the optical-pulse-induced effective magnetic field, in comparison with the one obtained via the conventional single-particle ac-Stark shift. Further study of the effect of hole spin relaxation reveals that while the coherent optical manipulation of electron spin in undoped quantum wells would deteriorate in the presence of relatively fast hole-spin relaxation, the coherent control in doped systems can be quite robust against the decoherence. The implications of present results on quantum dots will also be discussed.

description: The diffusion equation is extended by including spatial-temporal memory in such a manner that the conservation of the concentration is maintained. The additional memory term gives rise to the formation of non-trivial stationary solutions. The steady state pattern in an infinite domain is driven by a competition between conventional particle current and a feedback current. We give a general criteria for the existence of a non-trivial stationary state. The applicability of the model is tested in case of a strongly localized, time independent memory kernel. The resulting evolution equation is exactly solvable in arbitrary dimensions and the analytical solutions are compared with numerical simulations. When the memory term offers an spatially decaying behavior, we find also the exact stationary solution in form of a screened potential.

description: This report presents an overview of the unconventional use of charge-coupled devices (CCDs) to search for Dark Matter (DM). The DArk Matter In CCDs (DAMIC Experiment) employs the bulk silicon of thick, fully-depleted CCDs as a target for ionization signals produced by interactions of particle dark matter from the galactic halo. The DAMIC collaboration has engaged in an extensive campaign of characterization efforts to understand the response of these CCDs to low-energy nuclear recoils and their unique capabilities, including the use of high spatial resolution for both the rejection and study of backgrounds. The preliminary results of DAMIC prove the performance of the detector, provide measurements of the background contamination and demonstrate the potentiality for DM searches, with only ~40 grams of detector mass. The next phase of the experiment, DAMIC-M (DArk Matter in CCDs at Modane), will consist of a kg-sized detector, implementing the most massive CCDs ever built. These CCDs will feature sub-electron noise and will be deployed in a low-radioactivity environment at the Laboratoire Souterrain de Modane in France.

description: In this paper, 797 households in Henan and Ningxia were selected as sample, and the binary Logit Model was used to analyze the influencing factors of pro-environmental behavior in grain farmers production and operation. The results show that: farmers in production and management have begun showing a pro-environmental trend. The main factors that affect the production and management of grain farmers include the characteristics of farmers' personal characteristics, family characteristics, cultivated land resources endowment, cognitive characteristics and location characteristics. The educational level, participation in skills training , income level, breeding status, joining cooperatives, awareness of arable land protection policy, whether the main grain producing areas and other factors have a significant positive impact on the pro-environmental behavior of farmers. And age, management type, fragmentation of cultivated land and other factors have a significant negative impact on the pro-environmental behavior of farmers. The factors such as the quantity of labor force, the importance of protecting the cultivated land and the cognition of person liable of the cultivated land protection have no significant effect on the pro-environmental behavior of the farmers. Other factors have different effects on the pro-environmental behavior of farmers.

description: We provide a comprehensive theoretical analysis of private and social optimum in dairy production when society accounts for greenhouse gas emissions and nutrient runoff to waterways. The private farmer maximizes revenue from milk production by choosing herd size, diet, fertilization and land allocation between crops. Changes in the diet impact milk production, manure composition, and land allocation between crops. A critical radius emerges for the choices of crops and fertilizer type (mineral and manure); it is independent of the chosen crops in the private optimum but not in the social optimum. Fertilizer intensity is higher in the manure fertilized fields than in the fields where mineral fertilizer is used. Moreover, manure application rate decreases in distance to the farm centre. In contrast to what has generally been thought, the socially optimal fertilizer application follows the same spatial pattern than the private fertilization but at a lower level of intensity. A simulation model applied to the Finnish agriculture is used to further examine the features of the model. Acknowledgement : The work presented is part of the BONUS GO4BALTIC project: .

description: This article estimates a hedonic pesticide price model using 151 pesticide products linked to more than 39 chemical families over the period 1996 to 2006 in France. To take into account the chemical family as well as the unbalanced structure of the panel a nested error component model is estimated. This approach embeddes the successive components of the error term into the preceding component thus capturing the unobservable heterogeneity. Based on the predicted prices, the decrease of indices in 2001, corresponding to the setting of a toxicity-tax, suggests that pesticide turnover and innovativeness is more important than toxicity-tax effect.

description: Colour Me Emotional is a 2pp A5 Educational Resource that was created for SWISP Lab's (2023) Hacking the Anthropocene Kit (HAK.io). The Colour Me Emotional resource supports young people to think through how they might code emotion data generated during SWISP Lab's Youth Participatory Action Research (YPAR) workshops. Colour Me Emotional came out of SWISP Lab's year-long Digital Dispositions collaboration with MDAP data scientist Amanda Belton, who adopted PyPlutchik's open source code to explore a computational approach to coding large datasets for emotion and/or affect. PyPlutchik marries Python code to a large crowd-sourced emotion-association lexicon based on Plutchik's wheel of emotions to computationally map different types and intensities of emotion. Our interest in the intersections between big and little data prompted SWISP Lab to create this Colour Me Emotional resource and introduce it into the 'Careful Coding' sessions that are embedded in the Hacking the Anthropocene workshops. We wanted to see how our human co-researchers would think with Plutchik in very small (n=1) and deeply situated data. We found that young people like the way Plutchik's emotion flower is a model that acknowledges emotions can be multiple, potentially conflicting, and occur at varying intensities. These Colour Me Emotional resources are a 'hot' items, frequently needing to be replaced.

description: Empirical evidence on the trade-governance nexus tends to show that institutional differences restrict bilateral trade flows. In this paper, we introduce governance gap as a measure of the degree to which governance and institutions differ between countries. Using a sample of EU imports from 193 exporting countries, we examine the potential of voluntary food certification as surrogate institutions to overcome the governance gap at the country level. Our results show that while widening governance gaps lead to lower bilateral exports, the interaction of certification and the governance gap is positively associated with bilateral exports, hence partially offsetting the direct trade-inhibiting effects Acknowledgement : This research was financially supported by the German Research Foundation (DFG) through the GlobalFood Program (grant number RTG 1666).

description: We report on terahertz emission from FeMnPt/Ru/FeMnPt and Pt/CoFeB/Ru/CoFeB/Pt synthetic antiferromagnet (SAF) structures upon irradiation by a femtosecond laser; the former is via the anomalous Hall effect, whereas the latter is through the inverse spin Hall effect. The antiparallel alignment of the two ferromagnetic layers leads to a terahertz emission peak amplitude that is almost double that for a corresponding single-layer or bilayer emitter with the same equivalent thickness. In addition, we demonstrate by both simulation and experiment that terahertz emission provides a powerful tool to probe the magnetization reversal processes of individual ferromagnetic layers in a SAF structure, as the terahertz signal is proportional to the vector difference of the magnetizations of the two ferromagnetic layers.

description: We study the set $S_{ann-nc}$ of permutations of $\{1, ..., p+q \}$ which are non-crossing in an annulus with $p$ points marked on its external circle and $q$ points marked on its internal circle. The algebraic approach to $S_{ann-nc}$ goes by identifying three possible crossing patterns in an annulus, and by defining a permutation to be annular non-crossing when it does not display any of these patterns. We prove the annular counterpart for a ``geodesic condition'' shown by Biane to characterize non-crossing permutations in a disc. We point out that, as a consequence, annular non-crossing permutations appear in the description of the second order asymptotics for the joint moments of certain families (Wishart and GUE) of random matrices. We examine the relation between $S_{ann-nc}$ and the set $NC_{ann}$ of annular non-crossing partitions of $\{1, ..., p+q \}$, and observe that (unlike in the disc case) the natural map from $S_{ann-nc}$ onto $NC_{ann}$ has a pathology which prevents it from being injective.

description: The pure Kitaev honeycomb model harbors a quantum spin liquid in zero magnetic fields, while applying finite magnetic fields induces a topological spin liquid with non-Abelian anyonic excitations. This latter phase has been much sought after in Kitaev candidate materials, such as $α$-RuCl$_3$. Currently, two competing scenarios exist for the intermediate field phase of this compound ($B=7-10$ T), based on experimental as well as theoretical results: (i) conventional multiparticle magnetic excitations of integer quantum number vs. (ii) Majorana fermionic excitations of possibly non-Abelian nature with a fractional quantum number. To discriminate between these scenarios a detailed investigation of excitations over a wide field-temperature phase diagram is essential. Here we present Raman spectroscopic data revealing low-energy quasiparticles emerging out of a continuum of fractionalized excitations at intermediate fields, which are contrasted by conventional spin-wave excitations. The temperature evolution of these quasiparticles suggests the formation of bound states out of fractionalized excitations.

description: Using the Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) framework, this paper showed how urban sector wage rigidities such as the minimum wage policy can impact the rural economy and the welfare of households. A static CGE model of the Nigerian economy was developed to examine the effects of 12%, 30% and 68% minimum wage increases in Nigeria on the economy and the welfare of households, especially informal sector rural households. CGE simulations revealed that with a 12% increase in the minimum wage, domestic output declined in all sectors except the crude oil and mining sector. Similar impacts were observed with 30% and 68% increases but with greater changes. There was also a general decline in labour employment due to its higher price. Most macroeconomic aggregates fell, including GDP and real GDP. Household savings, however, increased in all cases but there were huge inflationary pressures represented by increases in the price index in all three scenarios. Investments also fell, while household utility declined in all three scenarios, indicating that minimum wage policies in the long run, do not result in better household welfare, rather they are left worse off.

description: The uncertainty quantification and risk modeling are hot topics in the operation and planning of energy systems. The system operators and planners are decision-makers that need to handle the uncertainty of input data of their models. As an example, energy consumption has always been a critical problem for operators since the forecasted values, and the actual consumption is never expected to be the same. The penetration of renewable energy resources is continuously increasing in recent and upcoming years. These technologies are not dispatch-able and are highly dependent on natural resources. This would make real-time energy balancing more complicated. Another source of uncertainty is related to energy market prices which are determined by the market participants behaviors. To consider these issues, uncertainty modeling should be performed. Various approaches have been previously utilized to model the uncertainty of these parameters such as probabilistic approaches, possibilistic approaches, hybrid possibilistic-probabilistic approach, information gap decision theory, robust and interval optimization techniques. This paper reviews the research works that used information gap decision theory for uncertainty modeling in energy and power systems.

description:
This "HAK.io" Hacking the Anthropocene Kit was co-designed in partnership with Science Gallery Bengaluru Carbon Mediators (2023-2024 Exhibition season) and SWISP Lab designer-in-residence, Jennifer Thy. HAK.io sets out to challenge settler-colonial narratives about Land, knowledge, and identity in Anthropogenic times, where human activities significantly impact the environment. While the climate crisis defines the Anthropocene, its outcome remains uncertain. We aim to provoke meaningful conversations and anti-colonialist narratives through a/r/tographic inquiry across physical and digital spaces through 'Hacking the Anthropocene.' The various components in the kit can be combined in a multitude of ways to hack the Anthropocene with young people aged 15-28 years. This kit is accompanied by a pocket gameplay book which is freely available on figshare through 'related material' links, as are printable versions of the methods cards. There is also a beautiful digital resource. The kits activate a new ecosystem of learning around issues of climate in/justice, digital in/justice and inter/generational in/justice and meaningful action. This makes it possible to come together to creatively explore what we need in a community to transform education policy and practice for just climate and digital futures.

A resilience-based rationale for farm growth: the case of Ukrainian agroholdings

description: The agricultural sector in transition economies is marked by the prominence of agroholdings, i.e., conglomerates of agricultural enterprises controlling up to hundreds of thousands of hectares of farmland. Drawing on a mix of primary and secondary information from Ukraine, this paper explores the hypothesis that membership in an agroholding presents a strategy for agricultural enterprises to remain resilient in the midst of the severe institutional turbulence characteristic of a transition economy. Institutional shocks and uncertainties disrupt the access of Ukrainian agricultural enterprises to critical finance, land, and labor resources. Enterprises are shown to cope with these disruptions by joining agroholdings, which facilitates access to these resources and creates a kind of protected enclave in which the enterprises can concentrate efforts on the organization of production. Notably, the rationale for agroholding membership is centered on resilience rather than efficiency. The focus on resilience rather than efficiency thus provides a tentative explanation of why the remarkable growth of agroholdings fails to be accompanied by evidence of their superior efficiency.

description: We construct black hole solutions in four-dimensional quadratic gravity, supported by a scalar field conformally coupled to quadratic terms in the curvature. The conformal matter Lagrangian is constructed with powers of traces of a conformally covariant tensor, which is defined in terms of the metric and a scalar field, and has the symmetries of the Riemann tensor. We find exact, neutral and charged, topological black hole solutions of this theory when the Weyl squared term is absent from the action functional. Including terms beyond quadratic order on the conformally covariant tensor, allows to have asymptotically de Sitter solutions, with a potential that is bounded from below. For generic values of the couplings we also show that static black hole solutions must have a constant Ricci scalar, and provide an analysis of the possible asymptotic behavior of both, the metric as well as the scalar field in the asymptotically AdS case, when the solutions match those of general relativity in vacuum at infinity. In this frame, the spacetime fulfils standard asymptotically AdS boundary conditions, and in spite of the non-standard couplings between the curvature and the scalar field, there is a family of black hole solutions in AdS that can be interpreted as localized objects. We also provide further comments on the extension of these results to higher dimensions.

description: Relative income deprivation is one mechanism through which income or wealth inequality is hypothesized to affect human behaviour, with consequences on well-being. The study checks these effects against multiple self-identified reference groups using a unique rich panel data set from Ethiopia, enabling us to examine a broader range of questions related to youth well-being than in previous studies in developing countries. In doing so, the study extends the standard analysis of relative deprivation (RD) from income per se, to consider social relative deprivation as well as assets (nonmonetary) relative deprivation. Since the effects of relative deprivation on well-being are also sensitive to the kind of measurements employed, the study employs two measurements of relative deprivation: objective and subjective, and compere the results from both. Our empirical results indicate relative income deprivation has a signal effect or a positive externality higher income of others in the reference group indicate higher prospects for youth (that induce motivation), whereas both social and non-monetary RD have a status effect higher income of others in the reference group reduces life satisfaction. Our findings are robust to different specifications. The policy implications of the results are discussed.

description: The position and momentum space information entropies, of the ground state of the Pöschl-Teller potential, are exactly evaluated and are found to satisfy the bound, obtained by Beckner, Bialynicki-Birula and Mycielski. These entropies for the first excited state, for different strengths of the potential well, are then numerically obtained. Interesting features of the entropy densities, owing their origin to the excited nature of the wave functions, are graphically demonstrated. We then compute the position space entropies of the coherent state of the Pöschl-Teller potential, which is known to show revival and fractional revival. Time evolution of the coherent state reveals many interesting patterns in the space-time flow of information entropy.
