The burden of poor access to financial services tends to be heavier on rice farmers because of the government's predisposition to bridge rice demand-supply deficit through importation. Improving yields is insufficient to lift rice farmers from poverty. It is necessary to understand and change the system in which the farmers operate one of which is the debt-equity mix of the enterprise. This study analyzed the relationship between socioeconomic characteristics and leverage ratio of rice farmers in Anambra State Nigeria with a view to informing and influencing policy. A hundred rice farmers were randomly selected. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and regression analysis. The debt-equity ratio was 0.33. Therefore, the rice farmer could employ more debt to increase yield. In terms of solvency and credit worthiness, the rice farmer had the capacity to employ more debt for profitable investment. Targeted financial and risk management assistance should be extended to the farmers.

Attitude as communication barrier (“noise”) in preaching the Word: basis-theoretical perspectives from the parable of the sower (Luke 8:4-15) Hearers’ attitudes in listening to a sermon still represent a very topical field of homiletical research. Within this extensive field the problem of communication barriers (“noise”) in the process of listening to a sermon is scrutinised in this article. At the outset three important concepts are defined: preaching, attitude and noise. The discussion of these aspects is followed by focusing on the parable of the sower. Outlined in particular is the way in which noise and attitude are expressed meta- phorically in this parable. As first step in the process of discussing the parable, Luke 8:4-15 is positioned within the macrostructure of Luke, and also within the microstructure of Luke 8. This specific positioning is followed by a closer exegetical delimitation of what hearers’ attitude as (possible source of) noise can imply. Negative aspects functioning as noise (barriers in receiving the message) are highlighted, including the evil presence of Satan in the listening process. Attention is also devoted to positive factors like spirituality in which the sower sows the seed of the Word in fertile soil. In conclusion basis-theoretical perspectives are formulated on hearers’ attitudes functioning as communication barrier (“noise”) in listening to a sermon.

Over 70% of the postharvest losses occur at the farm level. Efforts to curb postharvest losses (PHLs) have to target farmers’ practices and innovations. A survey of 150 farmers complemented by focus group discussions was conducted in Eastern Uganda to establish why farmers engage in practices that sustain high PHLs in rice. Farmers are aware of the extent and nature of PHLs but most cannot use the practices and technologies recommended due to high costs involved, lack of knowledge and skills required, or inappropriateness to farmers’ context. Rather than promoting such technologies, a starting point is to engage with farmers to change mindsets and adapt their practices to innovate. Market incentives like significant price differentiation for quality are critical to accelerate the change in practices and innovations for reduction PHLs.

Black Rice is a local commodity which apparently was not found in the Ciemas area of Sukabumi Regency alone, in several Districts in Sukabumi Regency, namely in the Districts of Waluran, Cidolog, and Kabandungan. Black rice from the nutritional content and benefits is no less significant. Black Rice prices are higher than white rice or consumption rice. Every Black Rice farmer still has problems in carrying out the postharvest handling process. This is the case with Chain Management (SCM) or supplies chain management by farmers; farmers also do this with different patterns. The income of lowland rice farmers is uncertain. Because the benefits of black rice and farmers' income fluctuate every year, it is necessary to check postharvest handling and to know and analyze how efficient workflows are to accelerate supply chain management, black rice reaches consumers and makes more enormous profits. Rather than spending money on black rice entrepreneurs. The results show that the postharvest handling process and the SCM pattern affect the income of farmers in Waluran, Ciemas, Surade, Cidolog, and Kabandungan, Sukabumi Regency.

Food needs will continue to increase due to year by year, Indonesia's population continues to increase, while the amount of food production cannot compensate for the increase in population. To guarantee national food security, the Indonesian government continues to strive to procure sufficient amounts of rice, including the use of high-yielding seeds, balanced and efficient use of fertilizers, control of pests and diseases, etc. These efforts are only focused on achieving targeted rice production but have not paid attention to the level of income obtained by farmers when cultivating rice compared to cultivating other agricultural commodities. The research was aimed to: (1) determine the income level of a rice farmer, especially in Sidrap District, which is a rice barn area in South Sulawesi Province; and (2) to determine the feasibility of rice farming in the area. One indicator of the feasibility of rice farming can be known based on the value of R / C ratio as well as Break Even Point (BEP) production and Break Even Point (BEP) prices. This study found that the level of income obtained by rice farmers in Pitu Riawa Subdistrict, Sidrap District was Rp. 13,624,672 / ha and was feasible to be cultivated with R / C ratio> 4.24; BEP production of 358 kg; BEP price of IDR 1,152 / kg.

This paper focuses on the problem of overcoming communication barriers with 6th grade secondary school learners studying a foreign language and searching ways of its solution. The authors analyze the concept of communication barrier and offer their own interpretation of the phenomenon under investigation. The paper also highlights the psychological and pedagogical conditions that affect the process of overcoming an FL language communication barrier by younger adolescents. The article claims that the enhancement of learners’ interaction activity and diminishing the fear of communication can be achieved by implementing a gaming technique in an FL classroom. The authors provide a set of games for 6th graders aimed to overcome communication barriers in the process of oral interaction in a foreign language. The effectiveness of the proposed technique was experimentally proved. The research results demonstrate positive influence of using communication games on students’ emotional state, communicative involvement during foreign language classes, motivates the learning process and enriches their social and communication experience. The survey, conducted among the learners, showed that most of them (90%) experience anxiety and difficulties during communication, which confirmed the prevalence of communication barriers among students at this school age. At the same time, 83.3% of students like games as a type of activity in foreign language lessons, and 76.6% of the respondents admit that the atmosphere in the classroom improves significantly during the game. Observations have also shown that regular use of games in foreign language lessons has had a positive effect on students’ interpersonal relationships. Most students (86.6%) confirmed that in the process of a game they become more active in communication, do not focus on the fear of making a mistake and are more prone to spontaneous speech. 83.3% of respondents noted that during the game, they significantly reduce the level of anxiety in the process of FL communication.
