Analysis of Reproduction and Agri-Food Market of Crop Production in the Conditions of Food Independence of the Region by V. V. Vrublevskaya

“…Taking into account the results obtained, economic instability, high dynamics of changes in the external environment, the directions of formation and development of reproduction and agrifood market of crop production in the Irkutsk region are proposed, namely, for the development of grain production, it is necessary to organize and develop production of highly efficient machinery and technologies for processing; the development of potato growing requires significant investments in agricultural organizations and peasant farms for the purchase of equipment for planting, hilling, harvesting, etc., the construction of potato storage facilities, etc.; increasing the level of self-sufficiency with vegetables in the Irkutsk region is possible through the application of the experience of neighboring regions, the joint work of the state and agricultural producers, the allocation of state support and private investment.…”

Physical function evaluation in volleyball training based on intelligent GRNN by Kaiyuan Dong, Borhannudin bin Abdullah, Hazizi bin Abu Saad, Chenxi Lu

“…Three heterogeneous kernel functions, namely Gaussian kernel, radial basis kernel, and Matern kernel, are introduced, and a local weighted response mechanism is constructed to enhance the expression ability of nonlinear physiological signals. Second, a dynamic adjustment mechanism for smoothing factors based on local gradient perturbation is proposed, enabling the model to have response compression capability in high-fluctuation samples. …”

Effect of serrated grain boundary on tensile and creep properties of a precipitation strengthened high entropy alloy by Jhuo-Lun Lee, Pei-Te Wang, Kai-Chi Lo, Pai-Keng Shen, Nien-Ti Tsou, Koji Kakehi, Hideyuki Murakami, Che-Wei Tsai, Stéphane Gorsse, An-Chou Yeh

“…Tensile and creep tests at 650°C were conducted, and serrated grain boundary could render a significant increase in tensile fracture strain and creep rupture life by a factor of 3.5 and 400, respectively. Detailed microstructure analysis has indicated that serrated grain boundary could distribute strains more evenly than that of straight morphology. …”

Real-time monitoring of soil moisture in cotton fields using electromagnetic induction technology by Yang Gao, Quanze Hu, Jiaojiao Hui, Lin Chang, Mei Zeng, Qingsong Jiang

“…Currently, electromagnetic induction technology provides a non-destructive alternative, using the inversion simulation of soil apparent electrical conductivity (ECa) to construct an empirical θg model, but the prediction accuracy of the constructed model is questioned when dealing with dynamic or highly uncertain data, resulting in large errors in the prediction results and cannot meet the needs of practical applications. …”

When thermal risk indices work and when they don’t: A case study of two maize insect pests by Komi Mensah Agboka, Frank Thomas Ndjomatchoua, Luca Rossini, Ritter A. Guimapi, Elfatih M. Abdel-Rahman

“…This study aims to extend this knowledge by presenting an application of the RI on two economically significant pests: the fall armyworm Spodoptera frugiperda and the stem borer Busseola fusca, major treats for maize production. • While the case of S. frugiperda follows the theoretical expectations, providing values RI>1 for temperature ranges typical of the regions of its confirmed persistence, the model fails for B. fusca, as RI<1 for weather conditions where field presence and damage are well-documented. • Accordingly, we trace the breakdown to limiting model assumptions, particularly temperature-only drivers, linear cause-and-effect biodemographic parameters, omission of seasonal dynamics, and reliance on laboratory parameters. • This dual-case contrast highlights both the potential and limitations of RI and calls for refinements that include a broader ecological realism and data availability.…”
