Vegetable Cultivation

Abstract: urban farming means to cultivate and nurture animals in a city or within its rural area. There are variety of plants that could be grown namely vegetables and fruits. Urban agriculture is expeted to help improve the economy of the people in an area because the yields produced can provide economic benefits. The Asofa Foundation tried to capture this opportunity in the context of developing a masjid-based economy through hydroponic training for the surrounding community. Therefore, a series of training was conducted to improve the capacity of the community. The training included training on seeding vegetables in rockwool, training on transplanting, and training in preparing and mixing hydroponic fertilizers. The results of the training were that residents were able to cultivate plants using hydroponics. However, the boundary was the environmental conditions (in this case water) in Bekasi which were not good enough so that the seedlings died after being transplanted into the hydroponic kit. Further training needed can be in the form of training fruit plants using hydroponics which can withstand inadequate water conditions. Another training that can be carried out is training in vegetable cultivation with planting methods other than hydroponics that are able to accommodate environmental conditions Keywords: urban farming, economic development, masjid-based economy, trainings  Abstrak: Pertanian perkotaan adalah menanam dan memelihara binatang ternak di dalam atau sekitar kota. Beragam jenis tanaman dapat dibudidayakan terutama tanaman sayuran dan buah. Pertanian perkotaan mampu membantu peningkatan ekonomi rakyat di suatu daerah karena hasil panen yang dihasilkan dapat memberikan keuntungan ekonomis. Peluang inilah yang berusaha ditangkap oleh Yayasan Asofa dalam rangka pengembangan ekonomi berbasis masjid lewat pelatihan hidroponik untuk masyarakat sekitar. Oleh karena itu, dilakukanlah serangkaian pelatihan untuk meningkatkan kemampuan masyarakatnya. Pelatihan yang dilakukan antara lain pelatihan penyemaian tanaman sayuran di rockwool, pelatihan pindah tanam, dan pelatihan meracik pupuk hidroponik. Hasil dari pelatihan tersebut adalah warga mampu melakukan budidaya tanaman dengan menggunakan hidroponik hanya saja kondisi lingkungan (dalam hal ini air) di daerah Bekasi kurang baik sehingga tanaman semaian mati setelah dipindahkan ke dalam kit hidroponik. Pelatihan lanjutan yang diperlukan dapat berupa pelatihan tanaman buah dengan menggunakan hidroponik yang tahan kondisi air yang kurang memadai. Pelatihan lain yang dapat dilakukan adalah pelatihan budidaya tanaman sayuran dengan metode tanam selain hidroponik yang mampu mengakomodasi kondisi lingkungan. Kata kunci: pertanian perkotaan, pengembangan ekonomi, ekonomi berbasis masjid, pelatihan

Urban agriculture is often advanced as a sustainable solution to feed a growing urban population, offering a number of benefits: improved fresh food access, CO2 absorption, social justice and social cohesion among others. Going beyond these direct tangible/objective benefits from urban agriculture, in this paper we ask: How can growing food in the cities teach us about taking care of each other and the natural environment? We use the example of urban food autonomy movements to discuss the transformative potential of a grassroots-led initiative promoting permaculture, which is anchored in three “ethics”: care for the earth, care for the people, and fair share. Through examining the philosophical underpinnings of “autonomy” and “care”, we explore how urban food autonomy initiatives can enable the development of an ethics of care, especially using permaculture inspirations. Our theoretical review and case analysis reveal that “autonomy” can never be achieved without “care” and that these are co-dependent outcomes. The urban food autonomy initiatives are directly relevant for the achievement of the three of the UN’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals: “Zero Hunger,” “Life on Land” and “Climate Action”, and contribute to a culture of care. Indeed, urban agriculture can act as a powerful education platform for the engagement of diverse stakeholders while also supporting a collective transformation of values.

AbstractAt the present time, urban agriculture—that is, the growing of food crops in backyard gardens, unused city spaces and peripheral zones—is an economically viable alternative for many African migrants. Although previously ‘invisible’ to most developers and economists, urban farming is now recognised as playing a crucial subsistence role in the household economies of lower-income people living in major West African cities. But the practice does more than feed the urban poor. Using the example of Ziguinchor in Casamance, Senegal, it is argued that growing crops in peri-urban and intra-urban zones, on otherwise neglected or half-built-up land, also protects and enriches the city environment while increasing the primary productivity of the inhabitants. Directly, or in more subtle ways, the practice strengthens bonds of friendship, and promotes inter-ethnic co-operation while at the same time helping to maintain biological complexity in interesting and previously unexplored ways. City farming may provide a context through which the urban poor can relate to debates about biodiversity.

The article shows that in career development, the use of acting techniques opens up new opportunities. The author traces the development of the Russian acting school, created by K.S. Stanislavsky and later revised and supplemented by his students, in the modern socio-economic situation. The article demonstrates that despite the fact that for many years this school was aimed exclusively at educating and training people who want to connect their lives with the theater, it had a significant impact on amateurs as well. Passion for the performing arts was traced among people of a wide variety of professions, which contributed to the creation of numerous amateur theaters. This tendency was especially evident in educational institutions. Pupils and students under the guidance of an experienced director tried to take steps in the stage space, received grateful responses, but continued to be content with the role of an amateur actor, without encroaching on the laurels of a professional. Nevertheless, after that, their main activity, regardless of the direction, moved to a completely different level. Without any psychotherapeutic interventions, the attitude to oneself, to the people around, and to situations changed, the speech apparatus and the timbre of the voice were transformed, phobias and depressive tendencies disappeared. As a result, participants in amateur theaters acquired a new circle of friends and promotions, or they radically changed their field of activity, opening completely new prospects for themselves. The article examines these possibilities in the framework of the modern situation, when the entire range of theater and acting means may be in demand by representatives of other professions.

The Grajagan village had a library located at the village office. So far, the library has not been managed and utilized optimally. The problems that occur in this library include the lack of book collections, the absence of chairs and tables for readers, the condition of the library is not well organized, and the library staff were not trained in managing the library. These problems have resulted in the low interest of the people of Grajagan village to visit the village library. To solve the problems, it was necessary to provide assistance in library development. Library development is carried out through the addition of book collections, providing chairs and tables for readers, arranging library space, and training for library staff. Based on the results of community service activities that have been carried out, it can be stated that the library's book collection has increased by 88 books, the library space becomes more comfortable with the increase in furniture, and the library staff has increased their knowledge in terms of library management. To further increase the role and function of the library, promotion or introduction to the library's book collections and facilities to local villagers is required.

Purpose Scholarly discourses regarding heritage values for sustainable heritage management abound in heritage literature but appear elitist as they tend to exclude the perspectives of the people at the lower echelons of society. The study explored the values ascribed to a global heritage monument by the people living around a global heritage site in Ghana and the implications of their perceptual values for sustainable heritage management. Design/methodology/approach This study used the qualitative design. It was guided by Costin’s heritage values, community attachment theory and values-based approach to heritage management. Data was gathered from the local people living close to the heritage site, and the staff of Museums and Monuments Board at the heritage site. Data were gathered through focus group discussions and in-depth interviews and analysed using the thematic approach and most significant stories. Findings The results revealed that the local people were aware of the economic, aesthetic, historic, symbolic and informational values of the heritage monument but showed little attachment to the monument. The main reasons for the low attachment were the limited opportunity for them to participate in the management of the monument, and the limited opportunity for direct economic benefits from the heritage asset. Research limitations/implications A comprehensive understanding of heritage monument management that reflects the perspectives and values of the local people is imperative. Practical implications United Nations Education, Scientific and Cultural Organisation and Ghana Museums and Monuments Board could consider a more community-inclusive heritage management framework that takes cognizance of local values and perspectives to ensure sustainable heritage management and development. Social implications The values and perspectives of the local community matter in heritage management. The heritage authorities need to engage more with the community people and educate them on the best practices regarding the sustainable management of World Heritage Sites. Originality/value This paper argues that the management of global heritage sites should not be elitist in orientation and character. It should respect the principle of community participation for inclusive development.

For most of the colonial period, the Codrington family had exclusive control over the island of Barbuda. Deploying the labor of enslaved African workers, they developed the island into an important source of food and other supplies to provision their sugar plantations on nearby Antigua. This chapter examines how Barbuda’s natural resources, built landscape, and labor system were all directed toward that purpose. In particular, it compares the Codringtons’ management strategies with those of Samuel Martin and William Byam, who sub-leased the island from 1746 to 1761. In addition, Anderson argues that enslaved people on Barbuda experienced a unique form of bondage geared toward herding and cultivation of food crops rather than sugar production. It also examines how the particular environmental conditions on Barbuda both offered opportunities and presented challenges for the people lived and worked there.
