Divergent approach in process-oriented HR controlling

Currently, new and updated tools for controlling personnel as specific methods of personnel management are being used with varying degrees of success. The subject of the research is the essential aspects and content features of management relations that develop during the formation and development of controlling personnel of processing organizations. The purpose of the research is to provide theoretical justification and instrumental support for the processes of personnel controlling based on the use of the advantages of the divergent approach for the full use of the creative component of management decisions. The methodological basis of the research is the methods that reveal the logic of the presentation: General scientific – dialectics (deductive, inductive), system; private scientific – historical, matrix, comparison. The scientific novelty of the research consists in the development of provisions aimed at substantiating the conditions that contribute to the formation of divergent thinking in solving managerial control tasks of the organization with the tools of personnel controlling. In contrast to the existing functional approaches, it is recommended to apply a process-oriented approach to personnel control, which contributes to the implementation of synergy and emergence in the course of displaying the creativity of human capital to ensure the competitiveness of a developing processing organization.

Intricate Agribusiness in Potato Contract Farming in Gujarat: A Review

Gujarat ranks top in potato productivity and a hub of many processing organizations. Due to the globally changing potato consumption scenario, a new structural innovation was created between producers and processors named contract farming. It is a win-win situation for both the producers and processors. Potato contract farming in Gujarat is very special as many contract farming models were established under the agribusiness domain, of which some models were informal, and some were formal, but it helped to safeguard the interest of all the stakeholders. Lack of trust, transaction costs, liquidity issues, and present business scenarios like COVID-19 like situations create a challenge to this structure. A sound strategy like farm harvest branding, basket marketing, targeting an untapped market, and increase usage rate will create a space for processing varieties and impel contract farming in the future.

Business analysis of factors and conditions for the development of sugar production organizations

The purpose of this study is, using the example of sugar production, to identify parametric characteristics and relationships that make it possible to simulate an algorithm and assessment procedures for predicting the possible results of the economic activity of processing organizations in the context of unstable business relations with suppliers of beet raw materials. The developed methodological approach is based on the classification of factors and conditions by sources of occurrence (external, conjugate and internal environment). When modeling scenario and situational changes, the assumptions inherent in the law of “diminishing returns” were made. In particular, only units of the conjugate environment (beet losses during storage and transportation; sugar losses during storage and in production; conjugation coefficient) are presented as dynamic (subject to change) indicators, the rest are positioned as constants, justifiably unchanged in the short term. Approbation of the proposed valuation procedures made it possible to identify imbalances in the level of dynamics of the resulting indicators (specific profit from sales (per ton of product) and profitability of sales with deviations in the values of the conjugation coefficient of the relative base level characterizing the balance of business relations with suppliers. Based on the results obtained, a conclusion was made about the possibility of manifestation of the established disproportions and the effective use of the proposed methodological approach for their leveling in the subjects of other industries.

The rise of corporate environmental responsibility in Serbian economy: The case of agri-food industry

The purpose of this paper is to investigate corporate environmental responsibility in the agri-food industry in the Republic of Serbia. Empirical research was conducted on a sample of 112 managers of agri-food organizations operating in the territory of the Republic of Serbia, randomly selected from publicly available databases, using Computer Assisted Web Interview - CAWI technique. Data analysis in this study consisted of descriptive statistics. Univariate analysis was used through individual ranking statistics. Nonparametric Kruskal-Wallis and post hoc Mann Whitney U test were used to test the significance of differences. Research results show above average level of corporate environmental responsibility in agri-food business world in the Republic of Serbia, yet, not sufficiently high comparing to Serbian consumers view, leaving room for improvement. Food processing organizations proved to be the most sensitive to corporate environmental responsibility issue followed by food manufacturing organizations, and agri-food supply and distribution chain organizations the least.

Preservação digital à luz do RGPD

The use of personal data enables the individual to travel today with autonomy in theInformation Society. Whether in the identification, classification or authorization in platforms or systems, these elements replace the physical presence, for example, in the authentication of services. Over the years, the legal systems have tried to deliberate on the protection of personal data and, after four generations, have found a balance that supports holders in actions with data processing organizations. The RGPD, which protects natural persons in the EuropeanUnion, has, in its 173 recitalsand eleven chapters, legal mechanisms that support the holders in guaranteeing their privacy rights. In thisarticle, the impact of the RGPDon data preservation and the challenges facing the standard will be analyzed.

SCIENTIFIC BASES FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF ORGANIC PRODUCTION IN THE AGRO-INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX OF THE REGION

The growth in demand for organic products is due to a conscious personal need and the popularization of a healthy lifestyle. Despite the relevance, demand, a large number of theoretical and applied research, foreign and domestic publications, the resource potential and prospects of the Russian Federation in this area of agribusiness have not yet been fully identified, and the development of scientific foundations for the development of organic production in the agro-industrial complex is required. The reason for the expected growth in the interest of both manufacturers and consumers in the organic segment of the food market is the entry into force of Federal Law No. 280-FZ «On organic products and on amendments to certain legislative acts of the Russian Federation» and the Interstate GOST standard on January 1, 2020 33980-2016 «Products of organic production. Rules for production, processing, labeling and sale». The general concept “scientific foundations for the development of organic production” formed by the authors is consistent with the world base of accumulated knowledge and is a systematized composition of theoretical provisions, principles, factors, methods and approaches for the development of crop and livestock production, processing and the market. A comprehensive theoretical consideration of the issue became the basis for building a comprehensive mechanism for its practical implementation at the regional level. The mechanism includes interconnected blocks of controlled and control systems, specific processes and specific development methods aimed at them, as well as indicators of development results for all interested participants: manufacturers, processing organizations, infrastructure and social facilities. Modern methods and techniques, developed in detail and applied in research, aimed at studying the resource potential and conditions of the regional market, grouped in four directions in the form of methodological aspects, made it possible to obtain the results proposed for discussion.
