The South-West Region of Aceh is one of the regions in the province of Aceh that is very rich in local rice diversity that needs to be identified and utilized as a source of genes in ssembling new superior varieties to support food security and sustainable agriculture. This study aims to determine the presence of potential local rice genotypes in the South-West Region of Aceh. This research was carried out in the South-West region of Aceh for potential local rice exploration. The survey results in the Aceh Barat-Selatan region have several potential genotypes of local rice in districts in the South-West Aceh region that are still cultivated by farmers in the south, while potential local gonotypes of rice in the South-West Aceh region, namely Aceh Jaya district: , Jantoeng, Sikleng, Ramos, Sijane, Dewi and Leukat Jeuram, West Aceh districts: Itam Tangke Lango, Head of Gidan Kinco, Lekat jero Lango, Sirendeh Semantuk Wayla and Bo Rayek Semantok Wayla.

The paper concentrates on the measurement of the total factor productivity of dairy farms in the south-west region of Bangladesh. The study used stochastic frontier approach for analyzing the technical efficiency of the dairy farms. Here, seventy dairy farms are considered as a sample. The data reveals that the number of labor and the quantity of food are statistically significant at a 1 percent level of significance.The data also manifests that numerous farm-specific characteristics, i.e. farm size, farmer’s age, and amount of credit are statistically significant at 1 percent, 10 percent, and 10 percent respectively. The range of technical efficiency for the farms varies from 26 percent (minimum) to 95 percent (maximum) where the mean value is 68 percent for the dairy farms of the south-west region. This implies that an average output of milk production falls 32 percent short of maximum possible level. Hence, there is scope of improvement in this sector. Therefore, to improve the farm productivity government should provide proper training, and medical treatment facilities for the farms so that the animals become healthy. If it is possible to do so then the farm level production frontier will shift upward.

The purpose of this work is to analyze lettuce cultivars different responses to environmental adaptability and rock dust concentrations in agroclimatic conditions in the south-west region of Goiás state. The work was conducted in the county of Mineiros, Goiás. The experimental area soil’s was classified as quartzarenic NEOSOL. In experiment number 1, was used experimental design in random blocks in factorial 5 × 2, corresponding to five rock dust concentrations (0, 100, 200, 300 and 400 kg ha-1), in two lettuce cultivars of Crespa and Americana lettuce. In experiment number 2 was applied experimental design in randomized blocks, which were constituted by 7 lettuce cultivars (Hanson, Simpson S. Preta, Baba de Verão, Maravilha de Inverno, Grandes Lagos, Crespa Palmas, and 4 Estação). The data results were analyzed 45 days after seeds transplant. The results were submitted to variance analysis and Turkey’s regression and test at a 5% probability. The 400 kg ha-1 rock dust dose didn’t have any effects in lettuce cultivars Crespa and Americana, once that, rock dust nutrients mineralization occurs very slowly, not interfering in the lettuce first cycle. 4 Estação cultivar presented good environmental adaptability to Goiás south-west agroclimatic conditions, more specifically in Mineiros, where it is recommended lettuce cultivation in summer-fall.

Effective Conditions

The objectives of this study were to: (i) Identify initiatives supporting healthy food availability, access and utilisation in the South West region of Western Australia (WA); and (ii) understand how they were functioning as a system to enhance community-level food security (FS). This study used a novel approach; a Systemic Innovation Lab, to interview initiative leaders/stakeholders about their FS initiative. Initiative characteristics measured included those which were associated with creating the effective conditions for FS systems change. Information was uploaded to an innovative online tool, creating a ‘transition card’ (matrix) of initiatives and partnering organisations. Fifty-one participants reported on 52 initiatives. Initiatives were most likely to possess characteristics relating to reinforcing changes towards an enhanced way of working to address FS and creating disruption to the old way of working. The initiative characteristic that initiatives were least likely to possess related to identifying the different causal factors of FS, and working with other stakeholders on specific components of FS. The South West Food Community pilot project used a comprehensive yet defined approach to demonstrate the value of a place-based, co-design project. Participants and stakeholders could strengthen specific initiative characteristics to facilitate enhanced community-level FS.
