Russia has gigantic territories that provide access to huge resources, but also require large expenditures for monitoring and maintaining the infrastructure in an appropriate state. The article discusses the possibilities of increasing the production efficiency of enterprises operating in remote areas with poorly developed infrastructure. To do this, it is proposed to consider the educational context, since for the growth of efficiency it is necessary to provide production processes with qualified personnel. It is proposed to pay attention not only to professional, but to psychological and pedagogical factors for preparing people for work at remote sites. The article also considers the possibilities of attracting migrants to work, given the growth of migration inflows. Attracting migrants to remote territories will help not only increase production, but also reduce social tension in society. In the future, it is planned to build a model for improving efficiency based on changes in individual factors.

Improvement of the quality of production processes organization, shift to a new engineering level and effective use of products are associated with the improvement of production and the development of organizational processes quality control system. The purpose of the paper is to study the methods and means that allow increasing the performance of the implementation and organization of production processes for the development of radio-electronic instrument making products, as well as their improvement. It is possible to increase production efficiency and quality of manufactured products, in particular, by ensuring the processes stability, reducing the dispersion of production parameters, timely detecting deviations of production processes and eliminating their causes. This can be achieved through the use of methods for organizing inter-operation statistical analysis, control and regulation of processes using cause-and-effect analysis of product parameters relationship, which allow establishing the statistical relationship of their parameters with the modes of the production process and patterns of product parameters distribution depending on processing factors. The analysis of converters production processes was carried out and the cause-and-effect diagram was drawn up taking into account the main factors affecting the quality and percentage of usable products yield. Structure of the analysis system for monitoring production processes and its algorithm are given. The paper shows the dependence of the filming process quality on films parameters in the form of a cause-and-effect graph, as well as products manufacture progress diagram, which demonstrates the reproducibility and stability of the converters production processes. An integrated approach to the implementation of production processes, taking into account special aspects of the technology, connection of instrument parameters with processing factors, organization processes quality control, allows reducing the dispersion of product parameters, improving process stability and overall production efficiency.

To increase production efficiency of meat products, milk protein additives are often used. Despite a number of advantages, use of dairy ingredients involves a certain risk, namely the allergenic potential of milk proteins. A number of methods have been developed to detect milk-origin raw materials in foodstuffs, including immunological reference methods. This study presents newly developed immunohistochemical (IHC) methods for casein detection in meat products. Casein was successfully detected directly in meat products where sensitivity was determined at 1.21 and specificity at 0.28. The results obtained from the IHC were compared with the Enzyme-Linked Immuno Sorbent Assay (ELISA) and there was no statistically significant difference between the IHC and ELISA methods (p > 0.05). The correspondence between the methods was 72% in total. The highest correspondence was reached in frankfurters (90%), the lowest in canned pâté (44%).

Microalgae have long been used for the commercial production of natural colorants such as carotenoids and chlorophyll. Due to the rising demand for carotenoids and other natural products from microalgae, strategies to increase production efficiency are urgently needed. The production of microalgal biorefineries has been limited to countries with moderate climates. For countries with cooler climates and less daylight, methodologies for the efficient production of microalgal biorefineries need to be investigated. Algal strains that can be safely consumed as whole cells are also attractive alternatives for developing as carotenoid supplements, which can also contain other compounds with health benefits. Using such strains helps to eliminate the need for hazardous solvents for extraction and several other complicated steps. In this study, the mesophilic green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii was employed to study the effects of cold stress on cell physiology and the production of pigments and storage compounds. The results showed that temperatures between 10 and 20 °C induced carotenoid and chlorophyll accumulation in the wild-type strain of C. reinhardtii. Interestingly, the increased level of carotenoids suggested that they might play a crucial role in cold stress acclimation. A temperature of 15 °C resulted in the highest carotenoid and chlorophyll productivity. At this temperature, carotenoid and chlorophyll productivity was 2 times and 1.3 times higher than at 25 °C, respectively. Subjecting a mutant defective in lutein and zeaxanthin accumulation to cold stress revealed that these two carotenoids are not essential for cold stress survival. Therefore, cold temperature could be used as a strategy to induce and increase the productivity of pigments in C. reinhardtii.

This analysis seeks to examine the history and development of moral/character education in America during the 20th century providing structure for the character education movement in today’s educational context. The common denominator and key to character education for the future is community. The concept of community connects the three aforementioned themes and provides a roadmap for better implementation of character education. Careful consideration is given to the interaction and contributions of the school and society in terms of promoting and developing character education. Though there is generous support from politicians, educators, and parents, character education is still somewhat mired by its lack of scope. This examination proposes that current character education proponents can find new frameworks for implementation by observing the history of character education.

Ruminant production in the UK is largely dependent on grasslands: approximately 52% of UK land is (improved) grassland and rough grazing. Herbage production from improved grassland can be over five times higher than that of indigenous swards (Davies et al., 1984) and these pastures account for the majority of ruminant (meat and milk) production from grassland the UK. They are also amenable to manipulation through the choice of species, variety and mixture of forages sown. Efficiency of production can be influenced at the levels of both the plant and the animal and by the nutrition and genetics of both. This paper examines strategies to increase production efficiency based upon optimising rumen fermentation linked to plant breeding approaches. In this way efficiency can be improved without recourse to diet manipulation with supplements, which is generally impractical at grazing. Although the rumen microbial population allows the ruminant animal to extract energy from otherwise unusable sources (i.e. fibres), the rumen is also the source of greatest inefficiencies in the use of nitrogen and energy. Degraded plant nitrogen that is not captured by the rumen microbes tends to be absorbed as ammonia, much of which is excreted as urea and contributes to ammonia and nitrous oxide emissions. Similarly, methane release from the rumen represents a waste of energy that could otherwise be used for production. Globally, these two processes result in ruminant livestock accounting for approximately a third of the methane emissions (Beauchemin et al., 2008) and half of the nitrous oxide emissions (de Klein and Eckard, 2008) from anthropogenic sources.

This study investigated the management information needs of fish farmers in Egbeda Local Government Area of Oyo State. Structured questionnaire was used to obtain data from one hundred and ten fish farmers randomly selected from four urban and seven rural wards of the area. Data obtained were analyzed using descriptive (frequency, percentage,) and inferential (chi-square and PPMC) statistics. Results show that respondents had average age of 43years, majority were male (64.8%), had primary school as highest educational level (52.4%), had 2-5 ponds, use earthen ponds (55.2%) and had 5-7 years fish farming experience. Information was most needed in hormone identification (x=2.83), fish marketing (x=2.80) and water quality management (x=2.71). Respondents indicated high cost of feed and poaching as a major challenge in fish farming. Respondents’ age (r = -0.233, p = 0.017); management practices (r = 0.209, p =0.032); number of ponds (r = -0.412, p = 0.000) were correlated with management information needs. The study therefore recommends the need for extension agencies to provide robust and timely information in the areas of need highlighted by the fish farmers in order to increase production efficiency and output of the fish farmers.Keywords: Information needs, Fish farmers, Aquaculture
