The concept of a farmer producer company (FPC) has emerged as an inclusive concept to address the issues of farmers, especially, small, and marginal farmers. The present study is to examine the impact of farmer producer companies on small and marginal farmers. 150 small and marginal farmers were chosen through multi-stage stratified random sampling in the Osmanabad district of Maharashtra state, India to assess the impact. It was found that the farmers organized under FPCs in the study area are not getting adequate support from the FPCs. It was also found that services provided by FPCs like marketing, value addition, technological services and pre-harvest services were satisfactory, while agricultural advisory services, capacity building and credit access services were poor. A model ACITM (Agriculture Advisory, Capacity Building, Technological and Marketing Services) is suggested to be executed by the FPCDN (Farmer Producer Companies Development Network) – a development network consortium for addressing FPCs problems and strengthening the FPCs.

This Note will discuss the impact of random sampling at elections conducted under the single transferable vote (STV) electoral system in multi-member constituencies in the Republic of Ireland. STV, partly because of its popularity among electoral reformers, has received considerable theoretical scrutiny. It has been given an ‘intermediate’ rating in recent assessment of a number of electoral systems, and dismissed as a ‘perverse social choice function’ because it is subject to non-monotonicity. This shortcoming is also mainly responsible for the low degree of acceptance accorded to it by Brams and Fishburn. Nurmi concludes that STV (like other multi-stage systems) performs poorly, with regard to a number of criteria, in comparison with one-stage systems like approval voting. Black complains that STV ‘is a compound of minor complexities and is difficult to remember’. Others have discussed shortcomings in STV and suggested remedies which can be implemented where the counting of votes is entirely computerized.

Gadget are phones that have capabilities such as computers, usually have large screens and the operating system is capable of carrying out common applications. Throughout the world there are 76.9 billion gadget usage and will continue to increase. The impact of the use of gadget can have an adverse impact on adolescents, it is known that the mass media or in this case the internet has a big impact on behavior change, such as playing games, watching porn videos and having unlimited relationships with girlfriends. The purpose of this study was to find out the description of the use of gadgets with the learning achievement of students of SMAN 2 Tembilahan in 2018. This research is descriptive with a cross sectional approach. The population in this study were all students of class XI and XII, with the sampling method carried out in proportionate stratified random sampling, as many as 117 samples, carried out on 28 Agustus 2018. The results of this study that use the majority of gadgets have a majority of unfavorable learning achievement as many as 41 people (56.2%) and the negative using the majority gadget also has a bad learning achievement of 52 people (71.2%). It is hoped that this research will be used as a reference for schools on the impact of gadget use, so that this research can later be used by students to improve learning achievement, and can provide additional information for further researchers by replacing or adding existing variables related to the description of gadget usage, learning in adolescents.

Maternal and neonatal services have not escaped the impact of the Covid 19 pandemic. It can indirectly increase the return of mortality and morbidity to both mother and baby. This study aims to assess the impact of the Covid 19 pandemic on the compliance of pregnant women to revisit antenatal care. The sampling technique used in this study was stratified random sampling, using the Lemeshow formula with a sample count of 126 people with the inclusion criteria set by the researcher. The design of this study was analytic observational. Data collection was carried out through observation questionnaire sheets that were collected offline and online (Google Form). The test used in this study was Mann Whitney. The results of the analysis show that the significance value is 0.003 at the 2nd-trimester pregnancy visit and 0.001 at the 3rd-trimester pregnancy visit, therefore, statistically p <0.05 there is a relationship between the impact of the pandemic and the 2nd and 3rd-trimester pregnancy visits. Mann Whitney with a higher ranking ratio (mean) between the affected groups (66.92) and those not affected (41.59). Thus, s who were affected by the pandemic were economically more likely to not attend pregnancy visits compared to those who were not economically affected by the pandemic. The results of the study show that there is a relationship between the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the unity of mothers carrying out pregnancy visits during the pandemic, this is due to government policies to limit and also anxiety of pregnant women.

Abstract Increasing the use of evidence-based programs (EBPs) in community settings is critical for improving health and reducing disparities. Community-based organizations (CBOs) and faith-based organizations (FBOs) have tremendous reach and trust within underserved communities, but their impact is constrained by limited staff capacity to use EBPs. This exploratory study sought to identify design and delivery considerations that could increase the impact of capacity-building interventions for CBOs and FBOs working with underserved communities. Data come from a community-based participatory research project addressing cancer disparities in Black, Latino, and Brazilian communities from Greater Boston and Greater Lawrence, Massachusetts. We conducted four focus group discussions with program coordinators in CBOs and FBOs (n = 27) and key informant interviews with CBO and FBO leaders (n = 15). Three researchers analyzed the data using a multi-stage coding process that included both prefigured and emergent codes. Key design considerations included embedding customized capacity-building interventions into community networks with local experts, supporting ongoing engagement with the intervention via a range of resources and communication channels, and addressing resource constraints. Regarding the contextual factors that should influence capacity-building intervention content, participants highlighted resource constraints, environments in which EBP use is not the norm, and challenges linking available programs with the multi-level barriers to good health faced by community members. Overall, the study highlights the need for integrated, long-term capacity-building efforts developed in partnership with, and ultimately sustained by, local organizations.
