Bananas and bananas are monocotyledonous plants belonging to the Musaceae family, order Zingiberales. This research aimed to analyze the data obtained in the Agrosf software to evaluate the production process of banana boxes from August to December 2022, specifically in the Hacienda Delia Francia. The study sample was the sheathed bunches from week 30 to week 40 and those harvested from week 42 to week 52 in 2022. The proposed methodology consisted of reducing calibration times, obtaining as the main result that a reduction in time implies a decrease in weight, which is not convenient to meet the demands of the international market.

This article presents a feasibility study for establishing a chocolate processing plant. The study employed a comprehensive approach, encompassing with a market analysis, technical assessment, and financial evaluation to examine the acceptance of chocolate, its characteristics, operational requirements, and the potential market impact. The selected target market (individuals aged 15-64) displayed a favorable reception towards the chocolate products. The technical study indicated a projected production capacity of 300,000 chocolate bars annually, commencing from the 8th year and continuing until the 10th year of the project. The financial analysis revealed a promising internal rate of return of 46% and an expected opportunity rate of 35%, resulting in a net present value of $148,039.11. Based on the comprehensive analyses conducted, the project demonstrated feasibility, with a proposed leverage of 98% and a required investment of 2%, resulting in a total investment amounting to $304,814.58.

Gamification is defined as incorporating game elements in non-traditional academic environments to motivate students and improve their engagement and participation in learning processes. This quali-quantitative study aimed to analyze gamification uses as a teaching strategy to improve the understanding of application problems with rational numbers and its influence on motivation during learning. Twenty-eight students participated in this study. The data analysis showed that students who received instruction with gamification obtained a greater understanding of the content and a more remarkable ability to work individually and in teams. In addition, students expressed greater satisfaction and motivation for mathematics through gamification.

Technological development in solid-state chemistry, nanotechnology, and new materials is advancing at an accelerated pace, studies of methods to generate thin films of conductive and semiconductor materials are of great interest, however, current methods tend to be very expensive and inaccessible to developing countries. The present work seeks to present viable and economical alternatives for teaching laboratories to investigate chemical deposition processes in aqueous solutions and produce thin layers of materials of interest in solid-state chemistry and new materials. The metals studied were copper, cobalt and, nickel in different types of salts and reducing agents, hydrazine hydrochloride, phenylhydrazine and, sodium borohydride. The main results show that it is possible to use cheaper chemicals to study depositions in an aqueous solution, a viable alternative for laboratories.
