description: This paper investigates the role of expected protein levels in determining the impact of protein premiums and discounts on firstly, a grower’s income stream, and secondly, a grower’s willingness-to-pay for a forward contract. The impact is examined for a range of expected protein levels (9%-13%). When considering a grower’s income stream, for expected protein levels less than approximately 10.2% expected income, E(I), and the variance of income, Var(I), decrease, and E(I) is the dominating effect causing an overall decrease in expected utility (EU). There exists a small protein window (approximately 10.2%-10.3%) where E(I) and Var(I) decrease and the Var(I) effect is dominant causing an overall increase in EU. For expected protein levels greater than 10.3%, E(I) increases and Var(I) decreases, both working to positively affect EU. Hence, growers with low expected protein levels are disadvantaged by the scheme. A sensitivity analysis is conducted on key parameter values to understand their impact on this relationship and it is found that although the window changed slightly in size and level, it did not significantly alter this relationship. Expected protein levels also have a significant role in determining the impact of protein premiums and discounts on a grower’s willingness-to-pay for a forward contract. This paper shows that in the presence of protein premiums and discounts growers with expected protein less than approximately 10% are willing to pay more for a forward contract, and growers with expected protein greater than approximately 10% are willing to pay less for a forward contract. A sensitivity analysis conducted on key parameter values did not significantly modify this relationship.

Risk and Uncertainty

description: A couple of months ago a journalist from a magazine asked me to name the five most important or influential books in my life. I had to start off with a little book called Zeek the Rabbit which hooked me on reading when I was about seven or eight years old, and that left me four more slots. One of those slots I gave to a remarkable book that I keep going back to over and over again. It’s a haunting and informative book called Feeding the Ten Billion written by an Australian plant physiologist named Lloyd Evans. Lloyd looked at different moments in human history, going all the way back to when the population was five million and then 50 million, 100 million, a billion, 2 billion, and 3 billion. He asked what kind of food system was in place for each of those periods and how the way in which people procured or produced food had changed as the population grew, as the technology changed and as the environment changed. Today, as the population races along towards the nine billion expected in 2050, this is a question that should be examined. Just as important, perhaps, as asking how are we going to feed two and a half billion more people on planet earth, is asking how are we going to deal with an extra two degrees of temperature, or more.

Farm Management

description: Agriculture is a major activity and land use across the developing world; it is vulnerable to changes in climatic conditions. Climate change affects agricultural systems and production in various ways, for example by changing agro-ecological conditions. Changes in the pattern and amount of precipitation, as well as temperature, can directly affect the suitability of cultivable land for agricultural production, food supplies and food utilisation. Climate change can affect food security, depending on the region and the socioeconomic status of the country involved. The poorest and food-insecure regions such as sub- Saharan Africa are expected to be most vulnerable to climate change. Overall, the adversities of climate change will disproportionately affect the small-holder poor who largely depend on agriculture and who have limited resources to cope with or adapt to climate change. More than 85% of the world’s land-users are classified as small-holders, with farm sizes of less than 2 ha. The impacts of high temperature, variability in precipitation patterns, and events such as severe and frequent drought and floods will most likely enhance production risks for these farmers, further widening the gap between the rich and the poor. Adverse impacts of climate change on the poor may be reduced through appropriate policies such as investment in infrastructure, adoption of sustainable agricultural and natural resource management practices, and advanced technologies that can generate climate-resilient crop varieties and better-adapted livestock breeds. Examples of some of these advanced technologies are described in this account.

description: In this paper we study the notion of synchronization from the point of view of combinatorics. As a first step, we address the quantitative problem of counting the number of executions of simple processes interacting with synchronization barriers. We elaborate a systematic decomposition of processes that produces a symbolic integral formula to solve the problem. Based on this procedure, we develop a generic algorithm to generate process executions uniformly at random. For some interesting sub-classes of processes we propose very efficient counting and random sampling algorithms. All these algorithms have one important characteristic in common: they work on the control graph of processes and thus do not require the explicit construction of the state-space.

description: The appreciation of ecological footprint has been increasing since the study by Stiglitz, Sen and Fitoussi’. At the same time, owing to the methodological and standardization problems as well as the shortcomings of data collection, its accuracy can be questioned. In our study, we were looking for countries with a significantly differing from the world average composition of the ecological footprint, with the help of cluster analyses and data from the database used for calculating the ecological footprint index by the Global Footprint Network. Comparing data from two years, we were trying to find answer to the question if the outlier data can trace back to professional errors or data collection problems. Basing on our studies, we can determine a two members group with an outstanding grazing land footprint (Mongolia, Uruguay), which can be considered as outliers according to every examination method. The formation of a stable group characterized by a big fishing ground footprint in 2010 can trace back to an inconsistency in the database, which is proved by the example of Gambia and Norway. In our opinion, a control of outliers is necessary for proper calculation of the EF index every year.

description: The Uganda business climate has continued to improve for the third successive quarter. The current (April - June 2014) index is 103.7 percentage points. The index has risen by 20 percentage points from 86.4 percent recorded in April – June 2013. The rise in the index is a good indicator of the continued favourable conditions of doing business in Uganda. The improvement in the business climate was sustained by a variety of factors including: stronger than expected consumer demand, stable macroeconomic environment characterized by easing inflation which dropped to an average of 5.7 percent in the current quarter from an 7.0 percent in the previous quarter, a 1.5 percent depreciation in the exchange rates, and lower interest rates (21.5 percent). Demand for Ugandan export products in both regional and international markets weakened at the end of the quarter owing to geopolitical risk such as the civil strife in South Sudan. Business perceptions and expectations for next quarter (July – September 2014) are upbeat. Overall the business climate has continued to improve but at a declining trend. However, there are elevated risks in the business environment. In particular, performance in the agricultural sector is well below potential.

description: The Uganda business climate continued to improve. The index for the current quarter (July - September 2014) is 117.2 and has improved by 24.2 points on a year-on-year basis and by 13.5 points on a quarter-on-quarter basis. The rise in the index suggests continued favourable conditions for doing business in Uganda. The continued improvement in the business climate was driven largely by: low inflation which ensured favourable input and product prices and stronger consumer confidence, which in turn drove business expectations of improved profitability. Despite these positive sentiments, production capacity remained well below potential thus constraining labour demand to a significant degree. Indeed, both indices for capacity utilization and employment improved only modestly indicating underlying risks to business expansion and employment creation. Business perceptions and expectations for the next quarter (October – December 2014) remain favourable on account of expected continuity in price stability. However, persistent challenges due to electricity outages, access to finance and the proliferation of substandard and counterfeit products pose serious risks for doing business.

description: We test different implementations of the halo occupation distribution (HOD) model to reconstruct the spatial distribution of galaxies as predicted by a publicly available semi-analytical model (SAM). We compare the measured two-point correlation functions of the HOD mock catalogues and the SAM samples to quantify the fidelity of the reconstruction. We use fixed number density galaxy samples selected according to stellar mass or star formation rate (SFR). We develop three different schemes to populate haloes with galaxies with increasing complexity, considering the scatter of the satellite HOD as an additional parameter in the modelling. We first modify the SAM output, removing assembly bias and using a standard Navarro-Frenk-White density profile for the satellite galaxies as the target to reproduce with our HOD mocks. We find that all models give similar reproductions of the two-halo contribution to the clustering signal, but there are differences in the one-halo term. In particular, the HOD mock reproductions work equally well using either the HOD of central and satellites separately or using a model that also accounts for whether or not the haloes contain a central galaxy. We find that the HOD scatter does not have an important impact on the clustering predictions for stellar mass selected samples. For SFR selections, we obtain the most accurate results assuming a negative binomial distribution for the number of satellites in a halo. The scatter in the satellites HOD is a key consideration for HOD mock catalogues that mimic ELG or SFR selected samples in future galaxy surveys.

description: Engineered transfer RNA is an emerging therapeutic modality, particularly suited to treatment of diseases caused by genetic disorders based on premature termination codons, frameshifts, or missense mutations. It is also extensively used in reprogramming of in vitro translation systems to generate non-canonical amino acid-containing proteins and peptides, such as in mRNA display. Due to its length, chemical synthesis of tRNA is challenging and production of engineered tRNA at scale is currently limited to in vitro transcription from a DNA template. Previously, the highest reported in vitro transcription yield was 2.5 g/L, significantly below the industry standard for mRNA production of 7-10 g/L. To improve this process, we implemented monitoring of nucleoside triphosphate consumption and tRNA production during in vitro transcription, using at-line high-performance liquid chromatography, with a monolithic solid phase. This allowed for optimization of nucleoside triphosphate concentration, reduction of the in vitro transcription time to <4 h, and improvement of yield up to 4.7 g/L. A step-elution purification on a DEAE chromatographic monolith with >90% step yield was then developed. These improvements in the production and purification of tRNA represent an important step in facilitating production of tRNA for research purposes, and provide a method for purification of therapeutic tRNAs that is scalable and compatible with Good Manufacturing Practice requirements for clinical production.

description: The Uganda business climate index declined by 22.4 points to 94.8 during the July – September 2015 quarter from 117.2 during the July – September 2014 quarter. This indicates a remarkable slowdown in the conditions for doing business in Uganda. This is the first time in five survey rounds that the index points to an uncertain business environment and elevated business climate risks. The slowdown in business perceptions was largely driven by some persistent challenges in doing business and some new emerging ones. In particular, the business environment suffered on account of volatility in the macroeconomic environment characterized by the weakening of the Uganda Shilling, rising interest rates and an unfavorable inflationary outlook. Moreover, macroeconomic factors, substandard products, and tax policy were considered more of a problem in the current period than in the previous. At the sectoral level, business sentiment in the agricultural sector was particularly downcast due to falling international commodity prices particularly for coffee, tea and cotton. Business perceptions and expectations for the next quarter (October – December 2015) remain subdued on account of the forthcoming general election, rising inflation and interest rates, low global demand for commodities, and fragility of the regional political environment.

description: The Uganda business climate index (UBCI) improved by 4.9 index points to 99.7 during the October – December 2015 quarter from 94.8 during the July – September 2015 quarter. This indicates a modest improvement in the conditions for doing business in Uganda on a quarterly basis. The improvement of business perceptions was largely driven by favourable product prices and consumer demand particularly for manufactured goods which improved the prospects for job creation. Specifically, strong Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth, increased demand for agricultural and manufactured goods during the Christmas and New Year festivities and the stabilization of the Uganda shilling supported the improvement of the UBCI.

description: The Uganda business climate index declined by 6.2 points to 93.5 during the January – March 2016 quarter from 99.7 during the October – December 2015 quarter. This indicates a slight slowdown in the conditions for doing business and is consistent with expectations from the previous quarter. The negative sentiment in the business environment was largely driven by some persistent challenges in doing business and some new emerging ones. In particular, the domestic political election cycle and concerns over waning domestic demand have elevated the perceived risks for doing business in the current quarter. In terms of business constraints, volatility in the macroeconomic environment, substandard products, tax policy, and concerns over the cost and reliability of electricity supply continue to constrain business competitiveness and their severity was perceived to have been elevated during the current period. Contrary to expectations, business sentiment in agriculture and industry was upbeat. However, business sentiment in the services sector was downcast. Perceptions about business sentiment in the next quarter (April – June 2016) are favourable on account of the expected recovery in domestic demand, macroeconomic environment, and improvements in domestic and regional political environment.

Making no assumptions about the intermediate mechanism, the branching fractions for $\bar{B}^0 \to D^0 π^+ π^-$ and $\bar{B}^0 \to D^{* 0} π^+ π^-$ are determined to be $(8.0 \pm 0.6 \pm 1.5) \times 10^{-4} $ and $ (6.2 \pm 1.2 \pm 1.8) \times 10^{-4}$ respectively. An analysis of $\bar{B^{0}} \to D^{0} π^+ π^-$ candidates yields to the first observation of the color-suppressed hadronic decay $\bar{B}^0 \to D^0 ρ^0$ with the branching fraction $(2.9 \pm 1.0 \pm 0.4) \times 10^{-4}$. We measure the ratio of branching fractions ${\mathcal B}(\bar{B^0} \to D^0 ρ^0) / {\mathcal B}(\bar{B^0} \to D^0 ω)$ = 1.6 $\pm$ 0.8.

description: We report on ALMA continuum observations of the black hole X-ray binary A0620-00, at an X-ray luminosity nine orders of magnitude sub-Eddington. The system was significantly detected at 98 GHz (at $44 \pm 7~μ{\rm Jy}$) and only marginally at 233 GHz ($20 \pm 8~μ{\rm Jy}$), about 40 days later. These results suggest either an optically thin sub-mm synchrotron spectrum, or highly variable sub-mm jet emission on month timescales. Although the latter appears more likely, we note that, at the time of the ALMA observations, A0620-00 was in a somewhat less active optical-IR state than during all published multi-wavelength campaigns when a flat-spectrum, partially self-absorbed jet has been suggested to extend from the radio to the mid-IR regime. Either interpretation is viable in the context of an internal shock model, where the jet's spectral shape and variability are set by the power density spectrum of the shells' Lorentz factor fluctuations. While strictly simultaneous radio-mm-IR observations are necessary to draw definitive conclusions for A0620-00, the data presented here, in combination with recent radio and sub-mm results from higher luminosity systems, demonstrate that jets from black hole X-ray binaries exhibit a high level of variability - either in flux density or intrinsic spectral shape, or both - across a wide spectrum of Eddington ratios. This is not in contrast with expectations from an internal shock model, where lower jet power systems can be expected to exhibit larger fractional variability owing to an overall decrease in synchrotron absorption.

description: Current developments in Enterprise Systems observe a paradigm shift, moving the needle from the backend to the edge sectors of those; by distributing data, decentralizing applications and integrating novel components seamlessly to the central systems. Distributively deployed AI capabilities will thrust this transition. Several non-functional requirements arise along with these developments, security being at the center of the discussions. Bearing those requirements in mind, hereby we propose an approach to holistically protect distributed Deep Neural Network (DNN) based/enhanced software assets, i.e. confidentiality of their input & output data streams as well as safeguarding their Intellectual Property. Making use of Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE), our approach enables the protection of Distributed Neural Networks, while processing encrypted data. On that respect we evaluate the feasibility of this solution on a Convolutional Neuronal Network (CNN) for image classification deployed on distributed infrastructures.
On the depth resolution of transmission Kikuchi diffraction (TKD) analysis

description: In this paper, we have analysed the depth resolution that can be achieved by on-axis transmission Kikuchi diffraction (TKD) using a Zr-Nb alloy. The results indicate that the signals contributing to detectable Kikuchi bands originate from a depth of approximately the mean free path of thermal diffuse scattering (lambdaTDS) from the bottom surface of a thin foil sample. This existing surface sensitivity can thus lead to the observation of different grain structures when opposite sides of a nano-crystalline foil are facing the incident electron beam. These results also provide a guideline for the ideal sample thickness for TKD analysis of 6lambdaTDS, or 21 times the elastic scattering mean free path (lambdaMFP) for samples of high crystal symmetry. For samples of lower symmetry, a smaller thickness 3lambdaTDS, or 10lambdaMFP is suggested.

description: Country, starting from the general interests, establishes the financial distribution of burden, but individuals burdened by taxes, having their own personal interests, do not accept this distribution. Taxpayer must pay the taxes, but he reacts in that way that he transfers the tax burden to other persons. Tax shifting should be understood as economic process caused by a tax procedure by which the direct financial burden is being transferred, through price adjustment, from a taxpayer to one or several other persons. Tax shifting exists when a person – taxpayer is different from a person that actually bears the tax burden. Tax shifting also appears in agriculture. This line of activity, due to its specificity, specificity of natural conditions and the very nature of activity, undergoes a special tax treatment, but is also specific in the sphere of tax shifting.

description: A new distribution for systems of particles in equilibrium obeying exclusion of correlated states is presented following the Haldane's state counting. It relies upon an ansatz to deal with the multiple exclusion that takes place when the states accessible to single particles are spatially correlated and it can be simultaneously excluded by more than one particle. The Haldane's statistics and Wu's distribution are recovered in the limit of non-correlated states of the multiple exclusion statistics. In addition, an exclusion spectrum function $\mathcal{G}(n)$ is introduced to account for the dependence of the state exclusion on the occupation-number $n$. Results of thermodynamics and state occupation are shown for ideal lattice gases of linear particles of size $k$ ($k$-mers) where multiple exclusion occurs. Remarkable agreement is found with Grand-Canonical Monte Carlo simulations from $k$=2 to 10 where multiple exclusion dominates as $k$ increases.

description: Magnetic Particle Imaging is an imaging modality that exploits the nonlinear response of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles to a time-varying magnetic field. In the past years, various scanner topologies have been proposed, which includes a single-sided scanner. Such a scanner features all its hardware located on one side, offering accessibility without limitations due to the size of the object of interest. In this paper, we present a proof of concept image reconstruction simulation studies for a single-sided field-free line scanner utilizing non-uniform magnetic fields. Specifically, we implemented a filtered backprojection algorithm allowing a 2D image reconstruction over a field of view of 4 x 4 cm2 with a spatial resolution of up to 2 mm for noiseless case. Int.

description: Agriculture has taken on a multifunctional role and link with tourism is required to protect and exploit its “historical” resources (heritage) as a tool of interconnection between local products, countryside, traditions, cultural values but also to place emphasis of the territory and communicate it. The aim of paper is the role assumed today by firms in particular those that support rural tourism. The objective is to assess the relationship between the company image, the entrepreneurial behavior built according to values, “typical” signs, historical resources of the rural world and the spin-offs on the territory. The paper shows the utility for rural tourism development: the heritage, which is often well preserved in rural areas is a valuable resource to integrate with management providing useful help as a vehicle for economic benefits also for agricultural regional development.

description: The perspective of our society cannot be imagined without the quality production and marketing of seeds in the country and abroad. On average, seed soya bean was annually planted on area of 7,151.8 ha in the period 2002-2007. Area under NS soya bean seed showed an annual trend rate of growth (9.21% with certain oscillations). In the research period, soya bean seed yield was 2.29 t ha-1 with a highly stable growth rate of 2.66%, while NS soya bean seed production in Serbia was 15,993 t with an annual growth rate of 12.59% with certain oscillations. Permanent growing trend of soya bean production is a result of increased area and yield. The increase of production was also affected by weather conditions. Such production volume fully meets domestic needs, while significant amount of seed still remains for export.

description: Credit Suisse First Boston (CSFB) launched in 1997 the model CreditRisk+ which aims at calculating the loss distribution of a credit portfolio on the basis of a methodology from actuarial mathematics. Knowing the loss distribution, it is possible to determine quantile-based values-at-risk (VaRs) for the portfolio. An open question is how to attribute fair VaR contributions to the credits or loans forming the portfolio. One approach is to define the contributions as certain conditional expectations. We develop an algorithm for the calculations involved in this approach. This algorithm can be adapted for computing the contributions to the portfolio Expected Shortfall (ES). Key words: CreditRisk+; Value-at-Risk (VaR); risk contribution; conditional expectation.
