The present study was conducted Bathinda, Fazilka, and Muktsar of Punjab to examine the socio-economic and general profile of goat farmers, studying a total sample of 88 goat farmers. Both types of goat farming systems, organized goat farms, and traditional goat farms, were studied with more emphasis on organized goat farms. The sample farmers consisted of 56 organized and 32 traditional goat farmers in the state. It was observed in the study that the education level of organized goat farmers was better compared to traditional goat farmers. A majority of the sample goat farmers had nuclear families. A majority of the farmers (53.57 percent) had goat farms located in the village. Organized goat farms had tube-well as the main source of water supply, whereas traditional goat farms were mainly dependent upon public water supply. Organized goat farmers had relatively higher exposure to training. A vast majority of the goat farmers had their breeding buck.

Abstract This study investigated the performance of children from the Brazilian Northeast region, from 7 to 10 years in phonemic and semantic verbal fluency tasks. The participants were 102 subjects (62 girls and 40 boys) who performed three phonemic and three semantic fluency tasks. The results were submitted to correlational and variance analysis to investigate the influence of the variables age and gender on the subjects performance. There was no effect of gender on the results. Significant contrasts between age groups were found, and better performance was observed on phonemic tasks. Also, the performance in this task changed along development, in contrast to what happened with the semantic fluency. The findings seem to be in accordance to neurodevelopmental aspects, taken into account that explicit memory systems show more precocious maturational course, with earlier consolidation, in comparison to the executive functions and frontal lobes, which go on developing until adult ages.

A list of liverworts from Alagoas State was compiled and is presented here. The list is based on catalogues and previous papers as well as the results of an unpublished survey carried out at the Murici Ecological Station (EsEc), an important protected area of the Brazilian Northeast (9º11'05" - 9º16'48"S; 35º45'20" - 35º55'12"W). One-hundred and sixteen liverworts have been recorded for the state of Alagoas, of which 106 occur at EsEc Murici. Seventy-eight are new occurrences for Alagoas, and seven of these are also new occurrences for northeastern Brazil. Data on geographic distribution in Brazil and worldwide is given here, in addition to ecological and taxonomic comments on the species that are new occurrences for the Northeast region.

The potential for parabolic trough solar power plant implementation in the semiarid area located at the Brazilian northeast region, throughout the São Francisco river basin, has been estimated as being 94,190MWe, based on the simulation results of a typical 30MWe solar energy generating systems (SEGS)-like power plant modeled using experimental solar irradiation measured at an eligible site. The use of electricity generated with SEGS-like power plants will help to save water that otherwise will be necessary to run in hydroelectric turbines and will contribute to diversify the Brazilian electrical energy matrix, which is predominantly hydroelectrical. The equivalent volume flow rate that can be saved with the implementation of solar power potential was estimated as 5125m3∕s, which is 1.8 times the mean flow rate of the São Francisco river.
