Economic Impact of Sugarcane Variety CO-86032 on Farmers Economy in Maharashtra

The area under sugarcane in Maharashtra state was found to be more stable and consistent rather than production and productivity. It may be due to the F & RP of sugarcane. In the year 1996, MPKV, Rahuri released a promising variety of sugarcane viz., Co-86032 which is very famous in farming community due to its hardiness, sugar recovery (percent) and resistance to the extreme rainfall as well as deficit rainfall. The total economic worthiness of university released sugarcane variety Co-86032(production technology) over other competing varieties of sugarcane in the Maharashtra was `51449.14per ha. The sugarcane growers in Maharashtra state earned net economic benefit of `11059.40 crores from improved sugarcane variety Co-86032. Therefore, it is suggested that the Government should allocate substantial funds to public research in sugarcane for productivity improvement.

Abstract Substandard and falsified medications are a major threat to public health, directly increasing the risk of treatment failure, antimicrobial resistance, morbidity, mortality and health expenditures. While antimalarial medicines are one of the most common to be of poor quality in low- and middle-income countries, their distributional impact has not been examined. This study assessed the health equity impact of substandard and falsified antimalarials among children under five in Uganda. Using a probabilistic agent-based model of paediatric malaria infection (Substandard and Falsified Antimalarial Research Impact, SAFARI model), we examine the present day distribution of the burden of poor-quality antimalarials by socio-economic status and urban/rural settings, and simulate supply chain, policy and patient education interventions. Patients incur US$26.1 million (7.8%) of the estimated total annual economic burden of substandard and falsified antimalarials, including $2.3 million (9.1%) in direct costs and $23.8 million (7.7%) in productivity losses due to early death. Poor-quality antimalarials annually cost $2.9 million to the government. The burden of the health and economic impact of malaria and poor-quality antimalarials predominantly rests on the poor (concentration index −0.28) and rural populations (98%). The number of deaths among the poorest wealth quintile due to substandard and falsified antimalarials was 12.7 times that of the wealthiest quintile, and the poor paid 12.1 times as much per person in out-of-pocket payments. Rural populations experienced 97.9% of the deaths due to poor-quality antimalarials, and paid 10.7 times as much annually in out-of-pocket expenses compared with urban populations. Our simulations demonstrated that interventions to improve medicine quality could have the greatest impact at reducing inequities, and improving adherence to antimalarials could have the largest economic impact. Substandard and falsified antimalarials have a significant health and economic impact, with greater burden of deaths, disability and costs on poor and rural populations, contributing to health inequities in Uganda.

Public services are the primary channels and government activities in which citizens contact public organizations. In turn, public services provided by the government are critical for citizens to recognize public organizations and governments according to their content and procedure. With the onset of COVID-19, the existing face-to-face public service delivery system has shown limitations in meeting citizens’ needs for public services (fastness, transparency, and safety); as a result, a shift to non-face-to-face public services is required. The study proposes the question: “How does citizens’ satisfaction with non-face-to-face public services affect public organizations (response and transparency) and government satisfaction?”. The purpose of this study is to verify the effect of satisfaction (content and procedural) with non-face-to-face public services on the perception (responsiveness and transparency) of public organizations and governments’ satisfaction. Specifically, non-face-to-face public services are divided into content and procedural aspects to analyze the responsiveness and transparency of public organizations and their impact on government satisfaction. This study used a structural equations model for analysis and used data collected in 2019 by the Korea Institute of Public Administration, a representative public research institute in Korea. The main analysis results are as follows: the responsiveness and transparency of public organizations increased alongside satisfaction with content and procedural satisfaction with non-face-to-face public services, and government satisfaction increased with responsiveness to and transparency toward public organizations.

The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has become a “major disaster” for Indonesia. Communities became confused after the Government instructed people to “Stay at Home” and “Work from Home” in order to end the spread of the coronavirus. Many people feel that the Government's decision is detrimental because not everybody can work from home. There were many employee reductions in several companies and did not have a steady income. This study attempted to find out the use of Instagram as one of the popular media during the COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia on economic impact. This study employed the semiotics method to analyse the #stayathomeindonesia hashtag on Instagram from 20 March 2020 to 5 April 2020. It was revealed that during the COVID-19 pandemic, Indonesian Instagram users used the platform to post their activity at home. Indonesian behaviours on Instagram amid the COVID-19 pandemic include posting homemade food, children’s drawings or colourings at home, and food order through online applications. So that the online-based economy more benefited than the offline-based because of limited activities outside the home due to appeals for staying at home.

Beberapa agenda reformasi yang diulas seperti kebijakan penurunan tarif pajak penghasilan korporasi, pencegahan terjadinya profit shifting hingga pengoptimalan penggunaan teknologi dan big data dalam sistem perpajakan. Indonesia dalam perjalanan reformasi perpajakan sejak 1983 telah mengalami perubahan yang cukup signifikan baik dalam hal administrasi dan implementasi kebijakan pajak sesuai dengan tren reformasi perpajakan global. Namun, catatan penting dalam perjalanan reformasi perpajakan Indonesia adalah masih rendahnya tingkat kepatuhan dan masih rendahnya tax ratio Indonesia dalam kurun waktu satu decade terakhirKata kunci: reformasi perpajakan, sistem perpajakan, administrasi perpajakan, kepatuhan, kebijakan pajak.


The exposure of farmers to agricultural hazards and risks has been increased in their work-places with the recent developments in agricultural sectors in most of the developing countries. This higher expose may be due to the enhanced need in meeting the food as well as monetary demand of farming house-holds. The agricultural-productivity has also been reduced in developing countries because of the exposure of farmers to work-related stresses affecting their well-being. Thus, an attempt was made in this study for exploring the mental-health disorders among the farmers and the farming-community in the state of Odisha in India for undertaking possible intervention strategies by the government and competent authorities.

The extent of Indonesian territorial waters along with its natural wealth inside brings economic benefit, yet on the other side it invites problems. Especially with the existence of regional autonomy, the competition to obtain the economic benefit causes fiercer competition between regions. The competition causes the division emergence of marine areas which implicates towards the fate of fishermen. This relates to their catchment area, imposition of income tax, and technical restriction on fishing. This research used normative approach by emphasizing the comparative study of water territorial arrangement in various regions. Based on the research, in autonomy region which has marine water, they regulate the object very detail and there are some which exploit their area. The detailed and thorough regulation with its practice sometimes cause the territorial waters dispute among the regions. It causes a confusion for the government or fishermen in obtaining the economic benefit of their own water. Hence, in level of regulation, it needs a legal harmonization between autonomy regions in utilization of water territorial. In practical level it often needs coordination to create fair economic benefit for the stakeholders.

ONE -- of the infrastructure development project was a port that has been done by the government of Indonesia, Sadeng Beach Fishery Port, in Girisubo District Gunung Kidul Regency, Yogyakarta. The emergence of ports in the area of Sadeng Beach Gunung Kidul brought changes to the community around Sadeng Beach area, considering the population in the area is not a fishing area. This research is an ethnographic research, within the researchers directly involved in various community activities in PPP Sadeng. Initially, the government brought fishermen from Gombong regency, Central Java to initiate the operation of the port. The construction of the harbor at Sadeng Beach is a government effort to improve the economy of the people around Sadeng Beach. However, the construction of ports in the middle of the farming community brings the consequences of socio-economic changes in the community around Sadeng Beach, especially the changes in the economic pattern of farmers to fisherman and the emergence of various types of fishermen in PPP Sadeng, the social cohesion changed among the community including the local fishermen with newcomers, and the emergence of new traditions.


Subject The abdication of Japan's emperor. Significance The Cabinet on December 8 approved proposals for the abdication of the current emperor, Akihito, on April 30, 2019. His son Naruhito will be enthroned the next day. Since this is the first abdication for 200 years, the government will be making up the ceremonies as it goes along, though with references to historical precedents. Impacts The transition and new emperor will have no impact on government policy. The extra-long national holiday and a 'resetting' of the official calendar will have some economic impact. The start of a literal new era, combined with the Olympics the following year, will buoy the public mood. The new emperor carries with him no personal wartime baggage and may be more acceptable to Japan’s neighbours.


Subject COVID-19 UK economic impact. Significance The UK economy is already contracting sharply as a result of the restrictions imposed by the government to contain the spread of COVID-19. In response, the UK government has announced a major programme of fiscal measures to reduce job losses and business closures. This is not designed to prevent this immediate fall but intended to reduce permanent damage to the economy. Impacts If the COVID-19 crisis persists beyond a few months, the policy response could become more complex and politically divisive. The economic and social recovery from COVID-19 will be crucial for the prime minister's survival prospects. COVID-19 has significantly increased the chances of an extension to the Brexit transition period beyond December 2020.


Significance Egypt has already suffered severe economic impact, with tourism closed down and portfolio investment in full flight. The government has imposed a partial lockdown, while allowing construction and some manufacturing to continue, in an effort to mitigate the impact on the economy. Impacts The relatively slow rate of the pandemic’s spread in Egypt raises questions about the accuracy of official data. The health system would struggle to cope with a mass influx of potentially infected Egyptian workers from the Gulf. Egypt’s relatively youthful demographic profile may make the trajectory of the epidemic different than Europe’s.
