Technical Report for the Instituto Tecnológico Superior de la Región Sierra in productivity matters

Measuring and improving productivity in today's organizations is of utmost importance, since the context in which we live is very dynamic and organizations are facing accelerated changes. It requires responsiveness to adapt to the demands of the markets and to be competitive. For this reason, companies must implement philosophies that allow continuous study with a comprehensive approach using techniques for measuring productivity. Such is the case of the present research where the performance of public higher education institutions is analyzed, considering the Tecnológico Nacional de México Campus of the Sierra Region, through the promotion of a technical report, where the instrument "Integral Productivity Evaluation Technique (TIEP), which consists of ten elements that favor productivity including context variables, is developed. The implementation of this tool allows the development of an integral diagnosis that is the basis for the proposal of a productivity improvement model.

The productivity of agrocoenosis in the steppe zone of Khakasia according to Terra Modis

The article presents the results of a quantitative assessment of the productivity of agrocoenosis according to Terra MODIS within the steppe zone of Khakasia. The gross primary production of various agrocoenosis during the growing season ranges from 3.42 to 7.41 kg/m2. On average, the integral productivity for the growing season of 2018 was for wheat – 5.01 ± 1.04 kg / m2, oats – 4.86 ± 1.12 kg / m2, barley – 4.52 ± 0.42 kg / m2, buckwheat – 5.25 kg / m2, hayfields – 4.86 ± 0.45 kg / m2, deposits – 4.39 ± 0.40 kg / m2. Least of all phytomass were some arable fields and low-yielding crops of wheat and abandoned lands, and most of all perennial grasses and high-yielding wheat and oats. The GPP indicators are associated with the sum of positive temperatures positively (R2×0.673), to a lesser extent (R2×0.333) with a hydrothermal coefficient for the examined agrocoenosis. The most productive crops and fertile territories were determined based on the seasonal and long-term dynamics of gross productivity. An increase in productivity for some agrocenoses was noted in 2018 according to satellite data.

Produkcja w rolnictwie w kontekście ochrony środowiska

The main goal of this work was to show the necessity of implementing enviromental aspects into existing agricultural productivity theories. The authors presented the issues of integral productivity and balanced intensification. A new approach to existing measures of farm productivity was discussed as well. Productivity index including environmental aspects (so called Environmentally Adjusted Total Factor Productivity) was showed. European farming, formed by the Common Agricultural Policy, currently implements the ideas of intensification and balanced progress most effectively. At the same time, it is on the development path enabling convergence of these two ideas.
