The overarching call to action represented by the sustainable development goals (SDGs) calls for new sustainable production and management models. Likewise, in periods of crisis, such as the current COVID-19 pandemic, companies are forced to develop competitive and sustainable development strategies to increase their brand value and achieve a good market position. Therefore, this work’s main objective is to design a structural equation modelling (SEM) to analyse the main critical dimensions of brand orientation to influence happiness in responsible and sustainable entities. For this purpose, a descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out based on primary data from a survey of a representative sample of 216 managers of small- and medium-sized enterprises in Andalusia (Spain) in the construction, industry and services sectors. The model results reveal significant dimensions of brand orientation and positively direct influence on happiness management. One of the significant managerial implications of this work is that the model allows for more responsible and sustainable management of entities by considering brand orientation about happiness.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the commerical feasibility of a containerized gradient concept with relevance to water requirement, pollution potential, and production efficiency. Basic components included one-half cu ft of media/plant with 2 plants/rigid plastic container. Phosphorous, liming material and micronutrients were mixed in the media and the N-K was banded on the surface at both ends of the container which was protected by a plastic cover. Intermittent micro-irrigation was used to maintain either a lateral or vertical nutrient/moisture gradient. Variations in the media, the size and shape of the container, and the frequency and time of water applications were included in the evaluations. In the spring of 1991, 65 gallons of water was utilized to produce 22.9 lbs of marketable tomatoes/plant. Leaching was insignificant and the water required on an acre basis was projected as 4.8 acre inches with a 2000 plant population. The results indicate that the containerized gradient concept is potentially feasible as a sustainable production system.

During the 1970s a mulched gradient concept was adapted by the Florida vegetable industry and the average yield of tomatoes was doubled. Currently, because of potential water restrictions and society's increasing concerns about environmental pollution, a containerized gradient concept is being evaluated. Containers, media and nutrient/water balance are major components being evaluated to maximize water use efficiency and minimize pollution and, at the same time, maintain or increase the existing competitive excellence. Three seasons of results indicate tomato yields equivalent to those produced commercially; water use has averaged 4 liters/plant/day (about 1/5 to 1/10 that used commercially; and leaching, fumigation and plastic mulches have been eliminated. The concept as a sustainable production system is considered commercially feasible.

La Conca de Tremp, situada en la comarca montañosa catalana del Pallars Jussá, es una de las áreas donde más se ha incrementado la ganadería porcina en régimen estabulado en las últimas tres décadas. Los impactos medioambientales negativos derivados de este sistema de producción ganadera son muy considerables, especialmente los relacionados con el vertido de puriñes que ha provocado un alto grado de nitrificación de las aguas. Análisis pormenorizados demuestran que el nivel de nitrificación de las aguas en la Conca de Tremp ha alcanzado un nivel muy alto, con las consecuencias que ello tiene en la salud de las personas. Atendiendo a las exigencias del desarrollo sostenible, única forma de garantizar el futuro de las comarcas de montaña, se apuntan soluciones para paliar los graves problemas generados por la intensificación de la ganadería porcina.The Tremp Basin, placed in the mountainous Catalonian region of the Pallars Jussá, is one of the areas where stabled pig cattle raising has been more increased in the last three decades. Negative environmental impacts, derived from this cattle raising production system are greatly substantial, specially the ones related to purine wastes which have caused a high degree of nitrification of the waters. Detailed analyses show that the degree of nitrification of the waters in the Tremp Basin has reached a very high level, with all that this implies for human health. Attending to the requirements of a sustainable development, which is the only way of granting a future for the mountainous regions, this paper hints at some solutions to lessen the serious problems generated by the intensification ofpig cattle raising.

Background: This study analyzes sustainable coffee production and its competitive perspectives. The present study explains the understanding of sustainable production practices with a triple bottom line approach examining the relationship between production practices and competitiveness. The adoption of a sustainable development strategy has become important for companies as they cannot only be environment friendly but also gain a competitive advantage. The recent studies even found that environmental sustainability has a direct and positive relationship with competitiveness. Objective: The main objective of this study is to find out sustainable coffee production practices and competitive perspectives. Method: The research is descriptive. It explains the data and their characteristics statistically without manipulation. A structured questionnaire was used to collect the data using a survey method.Result: The most significant observation of the study is that the strenuous working condition of coffee production changes the living standard of the people in the community in the future. In this study, the majority of farmers responded that they were practicing sustainable coffee production. They were aware of the environmental aspect of coffee production practices and sustainable way of production leads to competitiveness in international markets. Conclusion: The research concluded that the independent variables economic aspect, social aspect, and environmental aspect of sustainable production practices have a significant positive relationship with competitiveness.Implication: The findings of the paper imply that the adoption of a sustainable development strategy has become more important for the companies as they cannot only be environment friendly but also gain a competitive advantage.
