. This paper presents the results of a survey conducted electronically in the years 2020-2022 within the framework of the AGRICORE Horizon project. It concerned the Agri-Environment-Climate Measure M10 within the Rural Development Programme 2014-2020 and aimed to quantify the impact of its effects on environmental and climatic policy implementation at a national level according to the perceptions of Polish farmers. The representativeness of the scrutinized population was checked using general data from the Polish Statistics Office. The results of our study show a positive perception of M10 by the participating farmers. The majority of them observed the income progress of their activities despite the increased workload connected with programme implementation and the increased costs associated with some of the declared activities. The innovation activities of the M10 participants were directed mainly at sustainable agriculture and protecting the environment. The respondents who did not decide to participate in M10 most frequently explained themselves by noting a lack of information about the programme, bureaucratic limitations, or doubts concerning the profitability of participation. The results of the study suggest that during the implementation of future EU agri-environmental measures, more attention should be paid to administrative and legal activities at the national level which may improve the perception of the programme.

. Understanding which carbon or nitrogen sources the competing fungal species prefer is pivotal for specific biotechnological applications. However, this is not straightforward, as each strain sometimes behaves differently under the experimental conditions adopted. To analyse the trophic overlap of two species, it is necessary to refine diagnostic techniques and exclude variables that may interfere with the measurements. A protocol for establishing the suitability of chromogenic dyes in the analysis of filamentous fungi with phenotype microarrays is described here. The research goal was to determine the most suitable redox dye indicator and its optimal concentration that reacts quantitatively to the respiratory activity of both Verticillium spp. and Trichoderma spp. isolates in the presence of a nitrogen source. The commercial Biolog TM Redox Dye Mixes D, E, and F and also TTC (2,3,5-Triphenyltetrazolium chloride), INT (2-(4-iodophenyl)- 3-(4-nitrophenyl)-5-phenyl-2 H -tetrazolium chloride), and MTT solutions were evaluated in selected concentrations. Both their nutritive and toxic effects were quantified. Results showed that 1% “F” and 0.5% “D” Biolog TM dyes were appropriate for the functional evaluation of isolates belonging to the Verticillium and Trichoderma genera. They can be used in Biolog TM PM-nitrogen plate respiratory assays for a comprehensive functional charac - terisation of these organisms.

. Returning crop residue can increase soil organic matter content, and residue quality has an influence over the rate of their turnover. However, there is a lack of information con - cerning the biochemical transformations of organic compounds of N and C present in the crop residues during subsequent crop growth. In this study, the contents of organic N and C fractions in soils obtained using acid and alkaline hydrolysis under two crop rotations (faba bean vs . wheat rotation) were investigated. Black fallow served as a control. The mean total N increased in the order: black fallow, wheat rotation, faba bean rotation, total C and SOM were higher in the cropped soils than in black fal - low. Hydrolysable-N (1-step acid hydrolysis) reached 83.7% total N, amino acid-N and threonine+serine-N were the highest in faba bean rotation and the lowest in black fallow, ammonia-N and aminosugar-N were lower in black fallow than in cropped soils. Hydrolysable-N (2-step sequential fractionation) reached 85.3% total N and significant differ ences were noted between the cropped soils and black fallow, with respect to both the N and C contents. 15 N was mainly accumulated in the N soluble and eas - ily hydrolysable N compounds, and these fractions were greater in cropped soils than in black fallow. N in the humic com pounds increased from black fallow to faba bean rotation. A PCA analysis showed that crop rotation and soil sampling terms had a substan - tial influence over cluster formation. An ANOSIM test revealed significant diff erences between the crop rotation and term treat - ments. The results indicated that soil with faba bean rotation is richer in N compounds than soil with wheat as a forecrop and this may result in a reduction in N fertilizers for the succeeding crop.

. Fruit fortification is a promising strategy for improving the nutritional and functional properties of shortbread biscuits, as fruit contains various bioactive compounds that pro - vide potential health benefits. This study aimed to investigate the contemporary patterns in incorporating dried and powdered fruit and their by-products into shortbread biscuits, with a focus on alterations in their physical properties such as geometrical charac - teristics, weight, colour and texture. Moreover, the methods used for obtaining fruit powders were discussed. The research was based on the analysis of papers published within the last six years, retrieved from Scopus, Web of Sciences, and Google Scholar data - bases. It has been found that drying and size reduction are crucial processes that determine the quality of fruit powders. Most importantly, the selection of the type, particle size, and quantity of the additive, as well as its processing conditions, are critical factors in achieving the desired physical characteristics of the final product. The addition of various fruits and their by-products affects the weight and geometric characteristics of the resulting biscuits. The colour of the fortified biscuits undergoes significant changes, with the brightness level typically being reduced and redness increas - ing. In particular, depending on the type of additive used, it can cause an increase or a decrease in shortbread hardness.

. In order to accurately determine and evaluate the odour of rice, it is necessary to identify the substances that affect that odour and to develop methods to determine their amounts. For more than three decades, researchers have been studying the factors that produce and influence the aroma of rice. An electronic nose can be used to detect the volatile compounds of rice, while an olfactory machine is capable of classifying and detecting the variety, origin, and storage time of rice with a high degree of effi - ciency. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of electronic noses and other chemometric methods such as principal component analysis, linear discriminant analysis, and the Artificial Neural Network as a cost-effective, rapid, and non-destructive method for the detection of pure and adulterated rice varieties. Therefore, an electronic nose equipped with nine metal oxide semiconductor sensors with low power consumption was used. The results showed that the amount of variance accounted for by PC1 and PC4 was 98% for the samples used. Also, the classifi - cation accuracy of the linear discriminant analysis and Artificial Neural Network methods were 100%, respectively. The Support Vector Machines method (including Nu-SVM and C-SVM) was also used, which, in all its functions except the polynomial function, produced 100% accuracy in terms of training and validation.

. The moisture content of cigar leaves during drying is an important indicator for controlling the management of drying rooms. At present, the determination of cigar leaf moisture content is mainly dependent on traditional destructive detection methods, which are inefficient and damaging to plants. In this study, a Convolution Neural Network method consisting of digital images for monitoring the moisture content of cigar leaves during the drying process was proposed. In this study, the Convolution Neural Network model was trained to learn the relationship between the images and the corresponding moisture content using the extracted colour, shape, and texture features as input factors. In order to compare the Convolution Neural Network estimation results, a widely used traditional machine learning algorithm was applied. The results demonstrated that the estimated value of Convolution Neural Network agreed with the predicted value; the R 2 was 0.9044, and the average accuracy was 87.34%. These results were better than those produced by traditional machine learning methods. The generalization test of the proposed method was conducted using varieties of cigar leaves in other drying rooms. The results showed that Convolution Neural Network is a viable method for an accurate estimation of the moisture content, the R 2 was 0.8673 and the average accuracy was 86.81%. The Convolution Neural Network established by the features extracted from digital images could accurately estimate the moisture content of cigar leaves during drying and was therefore shown to be an effective monitoring tool.

. An understanding of the kinetics of water vapour sorption allows for the prediction of the stability of food in the management of transport and storage processes, it also facilitates the optimization of drying processes, and the rationalization of the methods of studying sorption statics. The present study aimed to determine an appropriate model of the kinetics of water vapour sorption on the surface of maize starch particles, which could prove useful in describing kinetic curves as well as allowing for the determination of the time required to reach a state of equilibrium. Experimental data was obtained through the continuous measurement of the increase in sample mass. The model was developed by matching the simulation results to the experimental results. Its parameters were identified by minimizing the mean square error between the time courses of the simulation and the experimental results, which allowed for the avoidance of problems concerning data processing and the loss of information. Two methods were deployed in order to minimize the occurrence of error: multi-start and gradient ones. The proposed model provided an appropriate description of the kinetics of water vapour adsorption by maize starch, regardless of the mass of the samples used and the physical state of their particles. The time required for a state of equilibrium to be attained was significantly shorter than the usually assumed period of 30 days.
