A Review on Success and Failures of Conservation Agriculture Practices in Ethiopia

Agribusiness possesses a key position for the Ethiopian economy, which contributes inside a single year 85% of business of the country’s populace, 95% of arrive beneath development and contributes more than 96% add up to rural yields. Be that as it may, the conventional arrive utilize framework harms this division and welcome over the top soil disintegration by wind and water (runoff) and results the misfortune of soil efficiency. In this respect, conservation agriculture can be seen as a potential alternative for Ethiopia which depend primarily and farming appear prime segment that seem offer assistance in keeping up and moving forward trim abdicate, achieving more flexible cultivating framework with decreased dangers and risks, whereas ensuring and invigorating the biological work of the soil. Most past ponders advocate appropriation of conservation agriculture as a degree for issues brought in ordinary cultivating operation and broad cultivate inputs application center on commerce as regular that pointed as it were maximizing generation, but this innovation have been limitedly received in a few zones. The catastrophe is little agriculturists may come up short to completely acknowledge recommended agrarian innovation bundles, such as conservation agriculture center hones due to numerous components, counting asset and data limitations. In this manner, the point of this article centered on the success and disappointment of conservation agriculture hones in Ethiopia.

Predicting the soil profile through modified regression by discretisation algorithm for the crop yield in Trichy district, India

Agriculture seems to be the most prime segment of the Tamil nadu State financial system, as around 70% of the residents are occupied in agriculture and associated activities for their source of revenue. But still, the state faces problems of resource-poor farmers, fragmentation of holdings, reliance on monsoon rain, and poor soil productivity. We have taken up the issue of predicting the yield level by analysing the soil characteristics for the particular soil. As gathering the information from an enormous volume of data is practically a complicated task in the recent circumstances, we have concentrated only on Trichy district and the soil data samples have been collected. The modified regression by discretisation was used for training and testing of the data sets and the results were explored in order to obtain the crop yield prediction for the soil. This study proves it's best for training soil data for classes' prediction.

Credit Growth and the Financial Crisis: A New Narrative

A broadly accepted view contends that the 2007-09 financial crisis in the U.S. was caused by an expansion in the supply of credit to subprime borrowers during the 2001-2006 credit boom, leading to the spike in defaults and foreclosures that sparked the crisis. We use a large administrative panel of credit file data to examine the evolution of household debt and defaults between 1999 and 2013. Our findings suggest an alternative narrative that challenges the large role of subprime credit in the crisis. We show that credit growth between 2001 and 2007 was concentrated in the prime segment, and debt to high risk borrowers was virtually constant for all debt categories during this period. The rise in mortgage defaults during the crisis was concentrated in the middle of the credit score distribution, and mostly attributable to real estate investors. We argue that previous analyses confounded life cycle debt demand of borrowers who were young at the start of the boom with an expansion in credit supply over that period. Moreover, a positive correlation between the concentration of subprime borrowers and the severity of the 2007-09 recession found in previous research may be driven by the high prevalence of young, low education, minority individuals in zip codes with large subprime population.

Analysis of the development of Polish ferry market in context of selected external determinants

Polish ferry market is a prime segment of ferry industry in Baltic Sea Region. Services from Polish ports to Sweden play an important role in the carriage of wheeled cargo between Cen­tral Europe and Scandinavia. The increase in trade turnover affects the demand for ferry transport. The aim of the article is to analyze the selected determinants influencing the activity of carriers on Polish market. The paper focuses on cargo transportation, the passenger segment is not researched.

Are economically significant bond returns explained by corporate news? An examination of the German corporate bond market

We examine the association between bond prices and corporate news for firms listed in the prime segment of the German stock market. Focusing on economically significant bond returns, we provide an overview of the various news categories that influence bond investors in their assessment of an issuer’s default risk. This approach allows us to draw direct comparisons with respect to size and time of impact. We find that (1) there is a strong relationship between economically significant changes in bond prices and corporate news, (2) earnings announcements and financing issues prevail in our analyses, and (3) on average, around half the significant bond returns occur within a period of one day before to one day after an event. This proportion is considerably small compared to the findings of related studies on the stock market. We also carry out a conventional event study analysis as an alternative approach to our main analysis.

Quilizumab is an Afucosylated Humanized Anti-M1 Prime Therapeutic Antibody

Depletion of IgE-switched B cells may be an efficacious therapy for the treatment of allergic asthma. A humanized monoclonal IgG1 antibody against the M1 prime segment of human membrane IgE on IgE-switched B cells can reduce serum IgE by depleting IgE-producing cells. Here we report that removal of the core fucose in the Fc glycan of this anti-M1 prime antibody increases its binding affinity for human FcγRIII receptors compared to the wildtype antibody. The enhancement in binding to FcγRIII results in increased antibody potency for the in vitro depletion of IgE-positive cells in antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity assays and for the in vivo reduction of serum IgE in mice reconstituted with human immune cells. This afucosylated anti-M1 prime antibody is known as quilizumab and is in clinical development for the treatment of allergic asthma.

Right P-Comparable Semigroups

In this article we utilise the notion of right waist and right comparizer to study the ideal theory of semigroups. We also consider which of the properties of right cones can be carried over to right P-comparable semigroups. We give sufficient and necessary conditions on the set of nilpotent elements of a semigroup to be an ideal, and we provide several equivalent characterizations for a right ideal being a right waist. In one of our main results we show that in a right P 1-comparable semigroup with left cancellation law, a prime segment P 2 ⊂ P 1 is Archimedean, simple or exceptional. This extends a similar result pertaining to right cones.

Prepayment penalties in residential mortgage contracts: A cost‐benefit analysis

Prepayment penalties are ubiquitous in the commercial mortgage market yet reviled and highly restricted by law and regulation in the residential mortgage market. Considering the perspectives of both the borrower and the lender, we attempt a balanced cost‐benefit analysis of this controversial contract feature for residential mortgage loans. We will address the following questions: What is the economic value of the prepayment penalty feature? Why is it more prevalent in the subprime than the prime market segment? Do borrowers obtain an offsetting economic benefit when they contract for a loan containing a prepayment penalty? What is the average cost of a prepayment penalty to borrowers, and how often is this cost actually incurred? In general, although we find a significant reduction in interest rates for loans containing a prepayment penalty, the expected costs outweigh the benefits by a considerable margin.

A classification of prime segments in simple artinian rings

Let A A be a simple artinian ring. A valuation ring of A A is a Bézout order R R of A A so that R / J ( R ) R/J(R) is simple artinian, a Goldie prime is a prime ideal P P of R R so that R / P R/P is Goldie, and a prime segment of A A is a pair of neighbouring Goldie primes of R . R. A prime segment P 1 ⊃ P 2 P_{1}\supset P_{2} is archimedean if K ( P 1 ) = { a ∈ P 1 | P 1 a P 1 ⊂ P 1 } K(P_{1})=\{a\in P_{1}\vert P_{1} aP_{1}\subset P_{1}\} is equal to P 1 , P_{1}, it is simple if K ( P 1 ) = P 2 K(P_{1})=P_{2} and it is exceptional if P 1 ⊃ K ( P 1 ) ⊃ P 2 . P_{1}\supset K(P_{1})\supset P_{2}. In this last case, K ( P 1 ) K(P_{1}) is a prime ideal of R R so that R / K ( P 1 ) R/K(P_{1}) is not Goldie. Using the group of divisorial ideals, these results are applied to classify rank one valuation rings according to the structure of their ideal lattices. The exceptional case splits further into infinitely many cases depending on the minimal n n so that K ( P 1 ) n K(P_{1})^{n} is not divisorial for n ≥ 2. n\ge 2.

Prime Segments of Skew Fields

AbstractAn additive subgroup P of a skew field F is called a prime of F if P does not contain the identity, but if the product xy of two elements x and y in F is contained in P, then x or y is in P. A prime segment of F is given by two neighbouring primes P1 ⊃ P2; such a segment is invariant, simple, or exceptional depending on whether A(P1) = {a ∈ P1 | P1aP1 ⊂ P1} equals P1, P2 or lies properly between P1 and P2. The set T(F) of all primes of F together with the containment relation is a tree if |T(F)| is finite, and 1 < |T(F)| < ∞ is possible if F is not commutative. In this paper we construct skew fields with prescribed types of sequences of prime segments as skew fields F of fractions of group rings of certain right ordered groups. In particular, groups G of affine transformations on ordered vector spaces V are considered, and the relationship between properties of Dedekind cuts of V, certain right orders on G, and chains of prime segments of F is investigated. A general result in Section 4 describing the possible orders on vector spaces over ordered fields may be of independent interest.

Right invariant right holoids

Right invariant right holoids H (r.i.r. holoids) are totally (and positively) ordered semigroups such that a > b holds if and only if a = bc for some c ¦ e e the identity of H. These holoids occur as semigroups of the prinicipal right ideals of right invariant right chain rings. We investigate in which way r.i.r. holoids of finite rank are built up from r.i.r. holoids of rank one which are known to be subsemigroups of the non-negative real numbers under addition. This is best described by conditions on f(C,a) where C is a prime segment which is shifted over elements a ϵ H. The functional properties of f(C,a) are studied, especially in the finite-rank-case. These results are then applied to the extension problem. Here, conditions are given under which the extension splits, however even under these assumptions aft additional problem occurs. An element s is called a denominator for b if a solution x exists in H with xs — b. It is crucial to know the denominators sets and solution sets. Under certain condition it is possible to embed H into a r.i.r. holoid H′ with larger sets of denominators.
