Philippines have already achieved its highest peak when it comes to substantive agricultural activities. The country has been one of the most leading distributors of agricultural crops most especially the rice commodity all throughout the world. With this, it can be concluded that agriculture is one important factor that affects the Philippines’ economy, thus, it must be given thorough attention and importance not only by the country’s government but also its constituents. There are inevitable factors that affects agricultural yield which results to rapid decrease of crop activities resulting to a devastating loss to the Philippine farmers, one of which is the existence of agricultural pest. These destructive pest gives fatal damage to agricultural crops by thriving its nutrients resulting to agricultural loss. Considering this, the aim of the study is to aid and help farmers locate such agricultural pest particularly on the rice commodity, give pesticide monitoring in order to limit pesticide usage that gives possible health risk to consumers, and lastly give pest information to its user particularly on farmers. With the combination of a Mobile Application and Arduino device all of this will become possible.

The title of this article seems to give the impression that its author is a financial expert. Unhappily, this is not the case. But—for quite unknown reasons—college professors are apt to acquire some empirical knowledge of credit facilities. Besides, I do not intend to give practical advice to anybody. I shall only try to show, how people in Puerto Rico, a century and a half ago, managed to survive—and at times prosper—in the midst of what some people used to call, not very affectionately, the “money complex.”What makes the question interesting is the lack of banks or other credit institutions. Apparently, the first small savings banks did not appear until the 1870's. The paucity, if not the absolute absence, of liquid capital characterizes Puerto Rico until the period under study. Such a state of affairs had remote causes. Puerto Rico, as Spain's second colony in the New World, had had a prosperous start in the sixteenth century. Some gold was found, and the firstingeniowas set up. But in the 1520's an exodus was set off by the attraction of the fabulous mineral wealth of the continent that was being conquered, an exodus that the threat of the death penalty was not able to stop effectively. The lack of sufficient settlers was then the initial cause of Puerto Rico's economic stagnation. Naturally, the following two hundred years should have been more than sufficient to allow recovery, for—popular beliefs to the contrary—mineral wealth was not the only source of economic prosperity in the Spanish monarchy. As a sample, the Philippines exported Chinese goods, Central America cocoa and dyestuff, Venezuela cocoa and tobacco, Guayaquil cocoa and timber, Quito textiles, Peru wine and flour, Chile flour and timber, Tucumán mules, Buenos Aires hides, and Cuba sugar and tobacco.

Agricultural Yield

The aim of the investigations here entered upon is statistical analysis of the yield of agricultural crops in terms of the stages of the plant’s development. When the yield is a fruit, then precedent stages determining the yield must be the flower and, before this, the development of flowering branches. In such a case, for full analysis of the final yield, careful records of these stages must first be taken all through the development season of the crop. The senior author has elaborated, during experiments on cotton in Egypt, the procedure for carrying out such analysis and the points to be attended to. Armed with this method of analysis the effects of environmental conditions on the development of the crop can be satisfactorily distinguished. The chief factors of environment capable of control in field work are—the space allowed to each plant, the date of sowing, the supply of water, of manures, and the choice of the year in which the crop is grown.

The COVID-19 pandemic has prompted educational leaders to restructure the curriculum and modify the instructional set-up to accommodate remote learning of which using technology is the most viable solution to the existing problem. This study explores how teachers adapt and utilise technology-based teaching, and what makes students learn under blended learning modalities in Taytay Senior High School. Quantitatively, using the validated survey questionnaire anchored on the technology adaptation model and the adaptive learning environment model, this study revealed that teachers' age is the factor in all aspects of the model (performance and effort expectancy, social influence and facilitating conditions). When comparing the adaptation levels of students and teachers, it showed that teachers were slightly higher than the students, and that there is a negligible correlation. The findings of this study will serve as baseline data for immediate actions for items that surfaced concerns as hindrance or factors that can hamper students’ academic performance.

Federation of Malaysia: On August 5, 1963, the governments of Malaya, Indonesia, and the Philippines requested the Secretary-General, U Thant, to ascertain by a fresh approach, prior to the establishment of the Federation of Malaysia, the wishes of the people of Sabah (North Borneo) and Sarawak concerning their future political status. His survey was to be conducted within the context of principle 9 of the annex to General Assembly Resolution 1541 (XV) of December 15, 1960. More specifically the Secretary-General was asked to consider whether in the recent elections in Sabah and Sarawak: 1) Malaysia had been a major issue if not the major issue; 2) electoral registers had been properly compiled; 3) elections had been free and there had been no coercion; and 4) votes had been properly polled and counted. In addition, he was to take into account the wishes of those who would have exercised their right of self-determination in the recent elections had they not been detained for political activities, imprisoned for political offenses, or absent from the country. Responding to this request and with the consent of the government of the United Kingdom, the Secretary-General set up two working teams under the supervision of his personal representative, which were to work in Sarawak and Sabah. The mission, consisting of nine individuals, held hearings and considered written communications.

<p>Groundwater is the main source of drinking water in Slovenia, but nitrate pollution originating from agricultural activities as well as urban sources such as faulty sewage systems is threatening its quality in several areas of the country. One of such is the Krško-brežiško polje alluvial plain in the southeast. The main aim of this study was to assess the water and nitrogen balance for three common land-use types, as well as the whole area. Three field trial sites were set up to monitor water and nitrogen balance. Gaps in data were further evaluated by SWAT model simulations. Results will contribute to the existing knowledge of nitrate pollution pathways in the area, and strengthen understanding of land use and soil type’s influence on the process.</p><p>This work was funded by the Slovenian Research Agency project L4-8221 and IAEA TCP-SLO5004.</p>
