This study aims to examine the value of genetic diversity and heritability in the agronomic character of the M2 generation of Ryoko variety edamame plants and obtain the M2 generation of genjah-aged edamame plants that can adapt well to lowlands. The study used a single plant, with 288 plants planted, with each dose of 48. One treatment factor used in this study is the dose of 60Co gamma-ray irradiation consisting of 6 levels: 0 Gy, 100 Gy, 200 Gy, 300 Gy, 400 Gy, and 500 Gy. The results showed that 60Co gamma-ray irradiation influenced the germination percentage of edamame plants. The results of 60Co gamma-ray irradiation also affect the diversity of qualitative characters of edamame plants, especially in the leaf shape component. However, it does not influence the flower color and growth type components. The diversity of edamame plants caused by the results of 60Co gamma ray irritation impacts the shape of edamame leaves. The results of 60Co gamma-ray irradiation affect the agronomic character of edamame plants, especially in the growth and production components. Plant growth components include plant height, number of leaves, number of branches, flowering age, and harvest age. The elements of crop production include number of pods, weight of 100 seeds, and number of seeds per pod. The results of 60Co gamma-ray irradiation affect the genetic diversity of Generation M2 edamame plants, with the emergence of diverse phenotypes in each individual. Generation M2 edamame plants of the Ryoko variety grown in lowland areas have different genetic diversity values in each agronomic character observed. The value of the coefficient of genetic diversity in these characters ranges from 4.29% - 10.74%. On the other hand, the results of 60Co gamma-ray irradiation cause a decrease in protein levels in edamame. The highest average amount of protein content was shown at the 100 Gy dose of 18.05 g, and the lowest average at the 500 Gy dose of 16.12 g. The protein content of edamame seeds at 100 Gy had the highest protein content but showed no difference with the dose of 0 Gy (Control). In general, the productivity of edamame plants is determined by genetic characteristics and environmental factors. Potential yields on edamame plants can be achieved if the plant does not experience interference with biotic and abiotic factors during the growing period.

The drainage characteristics are basic information for watershed management. The morphometric analysis carried the slope contribution and linear, areal, and relief aspects. Takhar province is 390 km distance from Kabul. Located in the North Eastern Region of the country, the capital of Takhar province is Taluqan (Provincial Center). Badakhshan borders Takhar in the North-East, Panjsher in the south, Baghlan in the South-West and Kunduz in the North-West. Takhar is situated at an elevation of 801 meters above sea level and covers a land area of 12328.684 Km2, representing 1.91 percent of the total Afghan territory. The SRTM (90 m) Digital Elevation Model (DEM), in conjunction with SOI toposheets, have been used to delineate the hydrological boundaries of the study area. The finding variation in the elongated shapes of the basins is due to the guiding effect of faulting and thrusting in the basin. The Rc of the basins is fewer than 1. It indicates that the infiltration rate varies throughout the basin. The Bangi, Farkhar, and Warsaj districts have low Fs, which indicates that there is less side flow for a shorter duration and high main flow for a longer duration. High Fs in Khwaja ghar, Taluqan, and Darqad districts with high side flow for a longer duration and low main flow for a shorter duration causing high peak flows in a shorter duration.

The current research aims to investigate the development of the process of agricultural products by women and its role in the economy of rural families in Takhar villages. Although rural women in Afghanistan work with a traditional approach to promote agricultural education, they have been able to play a key role in promoting their agricultural products. The present study was carried out in Takhar province, Afghanistan, in 2023. The Cross-Sectional design method was used to collect the data. The research questionnaire includes five basic parts and two districts: (Kalafgan and Baharag). A multistage sampling technique was used to collect the data. In the present research, we selected 80 respondents randomly for the study. The findings of the present study show that agricultural products of rural women in Takhar province are considered one of the important achievements that provided not only the job of them but also their agricultural incomes a helpful and meaningful impact on the economy of their families, which means 47.5% of respondents agree that their agricultural products can play a good role in their family's economy, so 40% of them have a moderate view for this and the rest of them (12.5%) considered their agricultural products are not enough to grow of their family economy. Therefore, we can recognize that agricultural products can impact the economy of rural families in Takhar province. Also, the interview findings of the present research show that creating a foundation for the work of rural women in the field of agricultural products can help achieve the following goals: Women achieving independence in all matters, especially economic matters, getting Women rid of poverty unemployment and finding prosperity, empowerment and capacity building for rural women, freeing rural women from family violence due to economic problems, raising the economic level of rural families, proper use of rural women's labor force for the growth of the local economy and finally laying groundwork for the activation of women in all matters.

Agricultural businesses in the Enrekang District, especially in the Alla District, are growing rapidly. This was followed by the development of agricultural facilities businesses, such as the sale of inorganic fertilizers carried out by the Gapoktan group. The purpose of this study was to find out how the Gapoktan business group provides fertilizer for farmers and analyze the break-even point (BEP) of the fertilizer sales business. This research uses a descriptive method with a quantitative approach. This study describes the state of the liquid inorganic fertilizer business when it reaches the BEP point. The results showed that the business must be able to sell liquid inorganic fertilizer as much as 200 liters per day to reach the BEP point. With a selling price of Rp10,000 per liter, the business can make a profit if it can sell more than 200 liters of fertilizer per day. By knowing the value of BEP, business management can make strategic decisions to increase business and profits.

The Gasing Industrial Area is one of the largest industrial areas and is experiencing faster development compared to other industrial areas in South Sumatra. The attractions of this area include its area of around 2,000 ha and its strategic location close to the city center. However, this attraction is not matched by environmental conditions in industrial areas, including the frequent generation of inappropriate domestic waste and low awareness of waste management. Complexity can be seen from the many stakeholders involved with various environmental management system perspectives. The aim of this research is to understand the environmental management system carried out by stakeholders regarding the waste management system in the Gasing Industrial Area. The data collection method was carried out using in-depth interviews. The results of the research show that the environmental management system relating to domestic waste (garbage) in industrial areas is that the management system carried out by the community mostly uses a direct waste system, the environmental management system by industrial actors partly uses government regulatory instruments, and the environmental management system by the government by means of environmental guidance and supervision. The environmental management system is not yet effective. This can be seen from the criteria for the effectiveness of the management system, namely organizational structure, work programs, mechanisms, and management practices, and the main indicator is the performance of industrial area governance, which is not yet optimal.

This study aims to find the environmental impacts of waste management within four seasons (spring, summer, autumn, and winter) of the year in Taluqan City. In this research, samples from 100 families during one week noted that dustbin setups for each house and labels like plastics, metals, organics, ashes, diapers, and plastic cans were used to separate waste easily. Household waste generation was analysed using various methods; a questionnaire survey was carried out among 400 householders to assess the current state of waste management in Taluqan City. The result showed that the government has no proper waste management; the residents collect and throw waste into the environment (surface water, vacant lands, streets, agricultural areas, etc.). The average waste generation was 0.903 kg/capita/day for winter, 0.805 kg/capita/day for summer, 0.53 kg/capita/day for spring, and 0.6 kg/capita/day for fall. The percentage of solid waste components in Taluqan City is organic at 60%, glass at 4.2%, metals at 13.25%, plastic and papers at 7.75%, and diapers at 15%. The average generation rate for all seasons is 0.72 kg /capita/day in Taluqan. Based on the respondents, 90 % of households throw their waste into surface water or vacant lands, 75% were interested in receiving information regarding the 3Rs (reduce, reuse, and recycle), 70 % wanted to pay for the collection, 65% wanted to collect from Masjid-to-Masjid, 35% like to be visited house-to-house and 17% were willing for separation of their waste.

The current research endeavor was undertaken to explore the impact of varying administration schedules of medicinal plant infusions (Allium sativum and Berberis lycium) on the hepatic function and lipid profile of young broiler chicks. A total of 240 day-old broiler chicks were meticulously categorized into four distinct groups, namely TI-0D, TI-1D, TI-2D, and TI-3D. These designations corresponded to the administration schedules as follows: the TI-0D group received daily infusions, the TI-1D group received infusions every alternate day, the TI-2D group received infusions every alternate two days, and the TI-3D group received infusions every alternate three days. Each of these groups was subsequently subdivided into two subgroups based on their vaccination protocols. Each subgroup was composed of three replicates, with each replicate containing 10 chicks. Notably, the serum protein levels were observed to be comparatively lower in the group subjected to daily infusion administration, while the highest levels were recorded in the group receiving infusions every alternate two days. However, it is important to underline that these differences did not attain statistical significance. Remarkably, the serum triglyceride levels demonstrated a significant decrease (P<0.05) in the group receiving infusions every alternate two days (TI-2D), with the highest levels being observed in the TI-0D group, which received daily infusions. Additionally, the levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) were markedly elevated (P<0.05) in the TI-2D group compared to all other groups. In terms of serum low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels, the TI-2D group exhibited the lowest levels, while the TI-0D group displayed the highest levels, although these differences were observed numerically rather than statistically. In conclusion, it can be deduced that the water-based infusion of Allium sativum and Berberis lyceum, administered every alternate two days, led to improvements in both the hepatic function and lipid profile of broiler chicks. This finding underscores the potential benefits of this specific administration schedule in enhancing the physiological parameters of the subjects under investigation.

However, it is important to underline that these differences did not attain statistical significance. Remarkably, the serum triglyceride levels demonstrated a significant decrease (P<0.05) in the group receiving infusions every alternate two days (TI-2D), with the highest levels being observed in the TI-0D group, which received daily infusions. Additionally, the levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) were markedly elevated (P<0.05) in the TI-2D group compared to all other groups. In terms of serum low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels, the TI-2D group exhibited the lowest levels, while the TI-0D group displayed the highest levels, although these differences were observed numerically rather than statistically. In conclusion, it can be deduced that the water-based infusion of Allium sativum and Berberis lyceum, administered every alternate two days, led to improvements in both the hepatic function and lipid profile of broiler chicks. This finding underscores the potential benefits of this specific administration schedule in enhancing the physiological parameters of the subjects under investigation.","PeriodicalId":202277,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Environmental and Agricultural Studies","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130371916","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A field experiment was conducted on the Effect of phosphorus fertilizer and seed rates on the growth and yield of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L) at the Farm of the agriculture faculty of Kunduz University during the spring season of 2023 to determine the optimum rates of phosphorus fertilizer and seed rates for maximum yield of common bean in the northeast of Afghanistan (Kunduz province). The treatment consists of three phosphorus levels (0kgP2O5ha-1, 40kgP2O5ha-1 and 80kgP2O5ha-1) and four combined seed rates (125 kgha-1, 150 kgha-1, 175 kgha-1 and 200 kg ha-1) laid out in randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications. The results revealed that phosphorus levels and different seed rates significantly affected on growth, yield attributes and yield of common bean on plant height, Leaf area/plant (cm2), Brunches/plant, Root dry weight/plant(g), Nodules/pant, No. of notes/plant, Pods/plant, Seeds/pod, 100 seed weight, seed yield/plant(g) and Grain Yield t/ha, the highest plant height (44.10cm), Leaf area/plant (217.18cm2), Brunches/plant(11.75), Root dry weight/plant (2.282g), Nodules/pant (12.16), Leaves/plant (47.833), No. of notes/plant (7.88), Pods/plant (16.98), Seeds/pod (6.97), 100 seed weight(34.536), seed yield/plant(8.83g) and Grain Yield (2.20t/ha) was in treatments 80kgP2O5ha-1 respectively. Seed rates were also significantly affected in treatment 200 kg ha-1 except for harvest index; all other yield attributes and yield was significant; the highest yield attributes and yield was in seed rate 200 kg ha-1. Thus 80kgP2O5ha-1with 200 kg ha-1 was found to be the best combination under northeast of Afghanistan agro-ecology as it gave higher values for yield and most yield related traits.

Global Climate Change (GCC) and its responses are already changing how food is produced, processed, and consumed. The agriculture sector's recent history of hardships and challenges brought about by GCC has posed a significant danger to people's ability to acquire food, particularly in developing countries. Today, GCC impacts are already being felt across the globe, especially in remote and rural communities where vulnerability is high, adaptation capacity is limited, and resources are scarce. Therefore, finding sustainable, practical, and cutting-edge solutions to the challenges of GCC is essential. The United Nations 2030 agenda on sustainability aims to reshape the world's society by achieving a number of broad sustainable development goals (SDGs), which call for significant structural changes in society as well as profound transformations in policy, the economy, technology, and science. More specifically, agenda 2030 emphasizes the creation and effective application of models, technology innovations, and strategies that call for the full participation of all parties, including local and indigenous people and their experiences, traditions, and cultural practices. However, despite providing clear examples of sustainable lifestyles within their ecological environment, particularly in the equitable distribution of resources among community members, indigenous and local people's voices, knowledge, and concerns have remained underrepresented in the climate change and sustainability discourse. Thus, this paper advances the climate adaptation, resilience-building, and sustainability (CARS) model in agriculture in developing countries. The CARS model is meant for policymakers and hinges on integrating scientific knowledge with indigenous and local ecological knowledge (ILEK) in the climate change adaptation and sustainability discourse. This theoretical model supports the notion that an understanding of the indigenous and local ecological knowledge systems is critical to opening up an environment that supports community-based efforts to adapt to GCC by giving them options and engaging them in finding innovative, sustainable, and effective strategies to adapt to the impacts emanating from GCC. The ultimate goal of this model is to promote positive co-management and regional development through sustainability and climate change adaptation while generating a forum for discussion among indigenous and local communities and the relevant stakeholders.
