India is a developing country, but rural areas do not seem to be developing much. Basically most of the public is farmers, most of the farmers have limited agricultural land and also lack of water resources. in many parts of India rain and is not enough for traditional way farming. To avoid these problems our proposed system is structured a helpful touch of fresh and raw feed for cattle food within affordable natural conditions. This hydroponic system does not require any soil to grow fodders and will absorb 80% less water as compared to the traditional method of farming. Greater topic for work to upgrade the Hydroponic Fodder Grow room for proper management of cattle fodder in any period during the year. This paper suggests a clever plan no human power or less human power is required for It performance. this is usually a completely automated system. In seven to for eight days the room provides fodder as a ready-to-feed product any cattle or grass-eating animals. This process is aided by a Moisture sensor to produce a certain amount of water. Forage seeds use H2O, or solutions that enrich the nutrients of the drug food within the absence of soil. The amount of water is additionally calculated by microcontroller atmega328p. Also, we visit the average temperature and humidity of our room. This heat and humidity are the same and is controlled by a cool cooler and UV/LED light inside the room. Adequate water management and nutrients within the hydroponic system, moisture, humidity pH, water level and temperature should be measurement Using a microcontroller all these functions do it automatically and display at the top of the guided screen. These hydroponics require less space, and this is true usually inside a room of aluminum or fiber. that the environment of the room is completely controlled. That's the fodder prepared for use within 8 days up to 1fit This healthy cattle fodder. Mainly more production we use maize as fodder. Performing remote monitoring of fodder extension procedure, prohibited by employees, thereby reducing the manual process.

The more rapid growth of technology allows humans to work effectively and efficiently. Technology proves the way humans change patterns of significant social change, from those that initially used human power to machines. The way humans use machines is inseparable from the ways and techniques of its use which are effective and efficient. One of the technologies used is the technology of crop cultivation without using soil as a planting medium. The technology introduced is hydroponics. Hydroponics as a way of farming is an approach that has several advantages, namely the use of agricultural land that is not extensive, and the system is not too complicated. The introduction of this technology aims to provide insight and knowledge to the public about the technology of crop cultivation in addition to conventional farming systems. This activity was carried out in Rayung gumuk Village, Glagah District, Lamongan Regency. The hydroponic system that we introduce is the NFT hydroponic system (Nutrient Film Technique). The goal is because the hydroponic system is easily applied and has several significant advantages. The first method of implementation is socialization.This is done to find out the extent to which people's insights and knowledge about hydroponics and the interests and interests of the community towards hydroponic using the NFT system. Moreover, the second is training. It aims to provide techniques and methods for assembling NFT hydroponic installations. From the results of our activities, the community's response to hydroponics is still minimal because some of them still consider hydroponic use too costly and their disinterest in agriculture.

The increasing need for food is not in line with the clearing of agricultural land for food crops. So that the effort to increase the productivity of agricultural products is by applying precision agriculture. However, in reality, precision agriculture is difficult to apply to conventional processes, where farmers come to the farm, collect data, then carry out maintenance. This method will make production results not optimal because maintenance is not done accurately. This study introduces a monitoring system for environmental conditions based on the Internet of Things (IoT) for agricultural land, where trials are carried out in a greenhouse. The system that has been developed consists of several sensors designed to collect information related to agricultural environmental conditions, including DHT22 sensor (temperature and humidity), DS18B20 sensor (soil temperature), soil moisture sensor (moisture content in the soil), and BH1750 sensor (light intensity). Based on the Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT) protocol, the data is sent to a gateway (Raspberry Pi) and a local server via a wireless network to be stored in a database. By using the Node-RED Dashboard, the received sensor data is then displayed on the browser every time the sensor sends data. In addition, the local server also publishes sensor data to the public MQTT broker so that sensor data can be accessed through the MQTT Dashboard application on a smartphone. The results of testing for 25 days of the system running obtained an average success of the system in storing data of 99.64%.

Nowadays, according to decentralization and current legislation (Land Code of Ukraine, Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine and the Law of Ukraine «On Self-Governance»), the public lands have been transferred to the CTCs since 1 February 2018. In 2018/2019, 788 CTCs received communal ownership of 1.68 ha of public lands. According to the Draft Law «On Amendments to Several Legal Documents of Ukraine on Agricultural Lands Turnover», the consolidated territorial communities become the legal entities and can acquire property rights to agricultural land plots. Therefore, transferring the lands to be used by the newly created CTCs is currently an urgent issue that requires extended scientific and practical research. The paper aims to research the role of land reform in Ukraine and its impact on increase of CTCs’ budget revenues. The stages of land reform and the development of the land reform in Ukraine as well as its implementation strategy are outlined. The disparities of the integrated satellite map and the data of the Land Cadaster of Ukraine in terms of unregistered lands are defined. The amount of a CTC budget’s increased revenues due to the reform is estimated. Statistical data on small, medium, and large farmers and their interest in the land reform are analyzed. The terms of selling the land to foreign investors and conditions of participation in land auctions are examined. The mechanisms of land purchase, selling, and lease in line with the land reform are suggested. Generalizing the presented aspects of the land reform in Ukraine and their impact on economic activity of the newly created CTCs, it can be argued that the process is quite positive and necessary for both communities and businesses in order to get additional budget revenues for CTCs. The land reform improves the living standards of Ukrainian people through the disclosure of the country’s agricultural capacity.

In many countries of the world, rural areas are characterized by a defective spatial structure of agricultural land. The most frequent defects are large fragmentation and distribution of farmland. The fragmentation of land has been an issue widely described by many authors throughout the world. The problem of the distribution of land owned by individual farmers is slightly different, since due to the complexity of the problem this issue was not widely explored in Poland (plot patchwork) or in other countries of Europe and the world. Land fragmentation and distribution of plots in rural areas has a negative effect on the profitability and efficiency of agricultural production. Land consolidation and exchange is an operation facilitating spatial structure improvement. The authors attempted to develop a universal land exchange algorithm for eliminating the external plot patchwork. As it turns out, so far no land exchange algorithm has been developed. Specific analyses were carried out in Puchaczów commune, county of Łęczna, Lublin voivodeship in the eastern part of Poland, covering an area of 6907.80 ha, split into 15,211 plots. The chequerboard arrays method was used. The publication presents the algorithm and its practical application using a test sample. A result of the studies is a proposal concerning the exchange of land between landowners in the villages of the commune of Puchaczów. Using the algorithm, the area of individual lands in the commune, after the exchange, will increase by 172.09 ha, which is 2.5% for the area of individual lands, and 1.9% for the commune.

In India, the rural economy still remains crucially important in the economic wellbeing of the majority population. The low income and high poverty in rural areas are closely associated with unequal distribution of income-earning assets, particularly agricultural land and non-land capital assets. In this article, therefore, we try to understand the intergroup inequality in wealth ownership across caste, ethnic and religious groups in rural India based on the 2013 data from the All India Debt and Investment survey carried out by National Sample Survey Office. The results indicate high interpersonal wealth inequality so also the intergroup wealth inequality at the aggregate level and by type of assets in rural India. The impact of caste on the ownership of wealth clearly indicates high ownership among Hindu high caste and Hindu other backward caste at the cost of low wealth share or ownership of the SC/ST indicating the existence of graded inequality.

Based on data collected as part of the 2006 Public Libraries and the Internet study, the authors assess the degree to which public libraries provide sufficient and quality bandwidth to support the library’s networked services and resources. The topic is complex due to the arbitrary assignment of a number of kilobytes per second (kbps) used to define bandwidth. Such arbitrary definitions to describe bandwidth sufficiency and quality are not useful. Public libraries are indeed connected to the Internet and do provide public-access services and resources. It is, however, time to move beyond connectivity type and speed questions and consider issues of bandwidth sufficiency, quality, and the range of networked services that should be available to the public from public libraries. A secondary, but important issue is the extent to which libraries, particularly in rural areas, have access to broadband telecommunications services.

Several Western Balkan states face the consequences of the Yugoslavian war, which left hometowns with dilapidated electricity grid connections, a high average age of power plant capacities and low integration of renewable energy sources, grid bottlenecks and a lack of competition. In order to supply all households with electricity, UNDP Croatia did a research on decentralized supply systems based on renewable energy sources. Decentralized supply systems offer cheaper electricity connections and provide faster support to rural development. This paper proposes a developed methodology to financially compare isolated grid solutions that primarily use renewable energies to an extension of the public electricity network to small regions in Croatia. Isolated grid supply proves to be very often a preferable option. Furthermore, it points out the lack of a reliable evaluation of non-monetizable aspects and promotes a new interdisciplinary approach.

The agricultural production methods of the last decades, have stood out for the use of the spaces, leaving aside even the land, mediating the greenhouses; in order to protect crops from climate variations, pests, raising their quality through better physicochemical characteristics and longer shelf life. The purpose of this work is to develop an automated system by means of materials such as sensors and microcontrollers capable of controlling physicochemical variables in a greenhouse, in order to provide the concentrations of nutrients, for the creation of an efficient hydroponic ecosystem, and standardized for an increase to production, in the cultivation of Romain variety lettuce. It is important to point out that within the hydroponic system, the Romain lettuce variety is harvested, obtaining larger products with an approximate weight of 1200 to 1500 g per piece, compared to those grown by the traditional method whose weights range between 1100 to 1300 g per piece, with a shelf life of 8 days in refrigeration.

Abstract Background: Multimorbidity is defined as the co-occurrence of two or more than two diseases in the same person. With rising longevity, multimorbidity has become a prominent concern among the older population. Evidence from both developed and developing countries shows that older people are at much higher risk of multimorbidity, however, urban-rural differential remained scarce. Therefore, this study examines urban-rural differential in multimorbidity among older adults by decomposing the risk factors of multimorbidity and identifying the covariates that contributed to the change in multimorbidity.Methods: The study utilized information from 31,464 older adults (rural-20,725 and urban-10,739) aged 60 years and above from the recent release of the Longitudinal Ageing Study in India (LASI) wave 1 data. Descriptive, bivariate, and multivariate decomposition analysis techniques were used.Results: Overall, significant urban-rural differences were found in the prevalence of multimorbidity among older adults (difference: 16.3; p<0.001). Moreover, obese/overweight and high-risk waist circumference were found to narrow the difference in the prevalence of multimorbidity among older adults between urban and rural areas by 8% and 9.1%, respectively.Conclusion: There is a need to substantially increase the public sector investment in healthcare to address the multimorbidity among older adults, more so in urban areas, without compromising the needs of older adults in rural areas.

The pre-emptive right to purchase and sell agricultural land by the authorities of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, the maximum size of agricultural land plots, the allocation of shares among rural residents and some other features of agricultural legislation are restrictions on the realization of the right of rural residents to own land. The lack of adequate infrastructure in rural areas, especially in the Far East that fall under the Far Eastern Hectare project, is also seen as an obstacle for rural residents to exercise their right to land.
