The research was conducted in order to determine influence of structural factors on profitability of grain production in the Altai Region, which is one of the main producers of grain in Russia. The influence of specialization and placement on the economic efficiency of grain production in the Altai Region was determined, factors for the formation of financial results and the financial condition of grain-type organizations were revealed. Comparison of agricultural organizations for which grain farming was the main production sector indicates that in case of increase in the cultivation area, the economic efficiency of resource use will be increased, despite higher costs per hectare of grain crops. The variation of organizations in the profitability of production is explained by the imperfection of the management system of the main branches in separate agricultural organizations, including non-optimal production volumes and placement in natural and economic zones. In the largest highly tailored organizations the economic efficiency of the resources used increased in the short-term perspective rose, but risks of its decline are created in the long-term period.

The long-term data from morphometric studies of Artemia males from bisexual and parthenogenetic populations from hyperhaline reservoirs of the Altai region (Bolshoe Yarovoe Lake, Maloe Shklo Lake, and the Tanatar Lakes system) is analyzed in this paper. The description of signs of sexual dimorphism and sexual structure in different populations is given. The influence of brine salinity and hydrogen index on morphometric parameters of males was analyzed. There are differences in the sexual structure of the Artemia population: in the lakes Maloe Shklo and the thanatar system, the populations are bisexual (the share of males is 28.5 — 75.0 %), in the lake Bolshoe yarovoe — parthenogenetic (the share of males on average does not exceed 3 %). At the same time, sexual dimorphism is typical for both types of populations: females are larger than males, males have a larger head (the distance between the eyes is greater by 15.5 %, the diameter of the eye is 26.1 %, the length of the antenna is 22.3 %) and a larger number of bristles (36.1 %). The greatest variability is observed in the parameters of the Furka structure associated with the salinity of water by feedback and the pH — line indicator. Significant differences between the samples of males were revealed. The largest number of significant differences in morphometric indicators was found between samples of males from bisexual populations (lake thanatar and lake Maloe Shklo), the smallest — between males from the parthenogenetic population of lake Bolshoe yarovoe and males from lake Maloe Shklo.

AbstractThe COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in unparalleled global impacts on human mobility. In the ocean, ship-based activities are thought to have been impacted due to severe restrictions on human movements and changes in consumption. Here, we quantify and map global change in marine traffic during the first half of 2020. There were decreases in 70.2% of Exclusive Economic Zones but changes varied spatially and temporally in alignment with confinement measures. Global declines peaked in April, with a reduction in traffic occupancy of 1.4% and decreases found across 54.8% of the sampling units. Passenger vessels presented more marked and longer lasting decreases. A regional assessment in the Western Mediterranean Sea gave further insights regarding the pace of recovery and long-term changes. Our approach provides guidance for large-scale monitoring of the progress and potential effects of COVID-19 on vessel traffic that may subsequently influence the blue economy and ocean health.

Since the early 2000, Balochistan is yet again embroiled in a cobweb of violence after a hiatus of more than two decades. The Baloch nationalist militancy began to reinvigorate after the seizure of power by General Pervez Musharraf in 1999. Musharraf marginalised the moderate Baloch nationalists and repressed dissident voices. The differences over power and resource sharing escalated quickly into a full-blown armed struggle once Musharraf used indiscriminate force to subdue opposition against his regime. This article examines the proximate and long-term structural factors that led to the resurgence of armed militancy at the turn of the twenty-first century. It analyses the new drivers and dynamics of the present conflict that make it more virulent and lend it a distinctive character.

The authors investigated the problems and prospects for the development of mortgage lending in the agricultural sector of Russia. The study found that the level of mortgage and, especially, land-mortgage lending to agribusiness is not high enough. The reasons - agriculture is characterized by a number of specific risks, land plots (as collateral objects) are financially unattractive for banking institutions, which experience increased risks with long-term lending to the agricultural sector of the economy. As a result, the process of mortgage lending to agricultural organizations presents various difficulties for potential borrowers. In order to activate mortgages for agricultural formations, the authors propose that banks expand the practice of issuing such loans on the basis of the simultaneous purchase by agricultural borrowers of part of their shares, as well as issue mortgage securities on the security of financially attractive agricultural assets (unmanned agricultural equipment, pest control bioferms, grain quality measurement devices, digital doubles, drones, etc.).

Valuation Method

In the article the long-term tangible asset’s valuation methods by the historical cost and the fair value are generalized, indicators that are analyzed by shareholders and creditors when assessing the company's financial condition are identified. For the research eight Lithuanian companies which apply different long-term tangible asset’s valuation methods were selected from two industries. The influence of long-term tangible asset’s valuation was explored by five relative indicators. It was determined that valuation method is associated with long-term tangible asset’s part in the total company's asset. When long-term tangible asset’s part in the total company’s asset constitutes less than 50 percent, the asset’s valuation method has no influence on the analyzed indicators. When long-term tangible asset’s part in the total asset constitutes more than 50 percent, the asset’s valuation method affects solvency and investment indicators. Long-term tangible asset’s valuation method does not affect profitability indicators, independent of long-term tangible asset’s part in the total asset.
