Abstract:
The work is devoted to the issue of improving the quality of cultivating of root-bearing soil layer and optimizing its agrotechnological properties. Improving the quality of cultivation is due to the application of soil cultivating tools equipped with disk-knife working bodies. They are provided theoretical and experimental study of the work of the disk-knife working body, and it is substantiated its rational parameters. The basis of the substantiation of the parameters of the cultivating tool is the original analytical model, which reflects the process of interaction of the working body with the soil. To study the performance of the process, on the basis of kinematic equations of motion of the individual points of the working bodies, it is developed the analytical model of the motion of the battery of the working bodies. On the basis of the provided analytical researches, they were determined geometrical parameters and developed experimental samples of the disk-knife working body. It was carried out a comparative test in the field of tools equipped with disk-knife working bodies and with standard spherical cut-off discs, which confirmed the effectiveness of the use of disk-knife working bodies. The use of disk-knife working bodies ensures: the burying of plant remains and fertilizers into the root-bearing soil layer, improving the quality of soil cultivation, preserving of its structure, reducing the traction resistance of the body.

Abstract:
The aim of the research is to improve soil tillage quality using combined working bodies in surface cultivation. There are various designs of combined tillage units including passive cultivators and active rotor-tooth working bodies cultivating land. However, an analysis of design and technological parameters of modern cultivators shows that they have a cumbersome design, required much metal and their quality indicators do not meet soil cultivation requirements. The article presents results of the studies on the influence of geometric and technological parameters of an additional battery of needle discs on land tillage quality. Using the research results, the land tillage has been improved and combined working bodies have been developed.

Abstract:
Antibacterial effects of three powdered bioactive glasses were compared by measuring the pH of the simulated body fluid in immediate contact with the glass powder particles and by cultivating four microorganisms in the powder-solution mixtures. After individual cultivation with the microorganisms the bioactive glasses showed ability to kill bacteria, but the effects were very dependent on glass composition and on the microorganism as well as on cultivation time. The results indicated that antimicrobial property of bioactive glasses correlates with their ability to change the pH of the body fluid in immediate contact with the glass. However, the increase in pH is not the only factor influencing the antimicrobial properties.

Abstract:
Abstract This article contemplates how the cultivation of breath through specific body awareness techniques might be understood to support a dialogical and ethical relatedness between collaborators constructing a performance through an open-ended process. The article introduces a teaching experiment based mainly upon exercises drawn from strands of body psychotherapy that took place within a larger experimental and cross-artistic workshop and performance project. This project aimed at enhancing the collaborative, creative, and critical skills of MA students in dance and theatre pedagogy of the Theatre Academy of the University of the Arts Helsinki. The article discusses the overall artistic project as well as the kind of bodywork the teaching experiment involved, and it makes a phenomenologically oriented reading of the written interview material gathered from the students. The specific theoretical perspective taken on the topic draws from two phenomenologically inspired thinkers, namely, Luce Irigaray’s and Timo Klemola’s views on the influence that cultivation of breathing can have on subjectivity. The article suggests that exploring and cultivating breathing through compassion can support the evolution of ethical collaboration in open-ended performance processes.

Abstract:
The area of RW 01 Rawamangun, Pulogadung District, East Jakarta does not have an allocation of open land, so there is a minimum of green yards. The technology introduced in this community service activity is the cultivation of family medicinal plants in yards using the verticulture method. The purpose of this community service activity is to convey information about the cultivation of family medicinal plants through lectures, discussions, and direct practice of cultivating family medicinal plants in yards using the verticulture method. Evaluation of participants' knowledge improvement was carried out by pre- and post test after counseling and cultivation practices. Skills participants are carried out when evaluating the practice of cultivating medicinal plants in their yards. The results of the activity showed an increase in basic knowledge regarding the types, benefits, and techniques of cultivating family medicinal plants from technology. Family medicinal plant service activity is classified as successful and beneficial, due to increased knowledge more than 60 in average test scoring. The skills evaluation showed that some residents were able to plant and maintain family medicinal plants on a narrow plot of land using the proper verticulture method. The results of the cultivation of these medicinal plants, apart from being one of the real actions of plant greening, can also be in the form of powder products which can then be consumed as a body health measure or sold.

Abstract:
Different varieties of Gandoerma have different functional effects. In this study, identification, cultivation, anti-tumor activity characterization and active constituent determination of Ganoderma specimen collected in Tanzania were carried out. The fungi specimen was identified as Ganoderma mbrekobenum by morphological and molecular methods, which was found in Ghana and was firstly reported in 2016. The fruit body was formed in artificial culture using sawdust as the main substrate at the suitable fruiting temperature of 27-30 °C, relative humidity 85-90%, and daily processed lighting for 10 h (300-500 Lux). The fruit body of G.mbrekobenum is hard and has ordinary-yield production, uniform shapes, and high stability. The in vitro experiments showed that the extract from G. mbrekobenum fruit body inhibited cancer cell proliferation of various cells, such as HepG2, MDA-MB-231 and U87. The water extract of the fruit body was tested, and the content of crude polysaccharides was 1.12%. The data showed that G. mbrekobenum was a potential valuable variety. This is the first study that reports the cultivation method and the anti-tumor activity of G. mbrekobenum.

Full text
Abstract:
A profusion of research has been dedicated to the effects of new media on body image. In an attempt to explain the inflation of eating disorders, several researchers have turned to the cultivation theory, postulating that increased interaction with these medias will lead to internalizations of the messages they disseminate. The over presence of extremely thin models and actresses can create a new reality for media users, who begin to equate thinness with beauty, power, femininity and happiness. While an abundance of research has delved into the impact of this thin ideal through television and magazines, the Internet as a medium is relatively new territory. Untrodden further is the field of social media, and particularly Instagram. The aim of this study was to determine the potential of cultivation theory via Instagram and its users.

Jennings, George Bradley. "Fighters, thinkers and shared cultivation : experiencing transformation through the long-term practice of traditionalist Chinese martial arts." Thesis, University of Exeter, 2010. http://hdl.handle.net/10036/116974.

Full text
Abstract:
Traditionalist Chinese martial arts (TCMAs) are popular in Britain, and some advocates have made extensive claims of their body-self transformation through sustained training. Despite extensive physiological research, there are few investigations of these practices regarding their socio-cultural practice. This qualitative sociological study examines long-term British practitioners’ experiences of transformation via Taijiquan (Tai Chi) and Wing Chun by addressing five issues: 1) Rationales behind practice 2) Resulting transformations 3) Explicit/implicit pedagogic strategies 4) Cultural transmission 5) Relations to broader social life. It approaches these questions through an emergent research design incorporating autobiographical vignettes as a practitioner-teacher-researcher, life histories of experienced practitioners and ethnographic fieldwork of two case study schools. Following thematic, metaphorical and narrative analysis, a structurationist theoretical framework illuminates the data by incorporating sensitising concepts from diverse thinkers including Bourdieu, Frank, Giddens and Yuasa. The findings are represented through autobiographical, modified realist, impressionist and confessional writing and structure the thesis as follows: Firstly, my own story demonstrates shifts in transformation from a technique-orientated approach to a more spiritual/holistic perspective, finally emerging as a scholarly position of a thinker-martial artist. Secondly, practitioner case studies further articulate transformations along a flexible continuum of changing body-self-society relations interpreted here as three ideal types: Fighters, martial artists and thinkers. Thirdly, the connecting pedagogical issues are addressed, as well-rounded TCMA systems possess specific partner exercises to develop intercorporeal awareness and embodied sensitivity, which are explicit aspects of each association’s martial habitus and body lineage. Meanwhile, socio-linguistic metaphors articulate these transformations and are also interpreted as transformations in thinking and schemes of perception. Overall, these sensitising concepts and empirical findings offer a social theory of shared cultivation that acknowledges transformation on individual, relational, institutional and art levels. This shared cultivation framework may be useful for future methodological, theoretical and empirical considerations of wider physical culture. Key words: Autobiography, Body-self transformation, Chinese martial arts, cultural transmission, ethnography, life histories, qualitative research, sociology, shared cultivation

Resumo: Esta pesquisa investiga a construção de uma qualidade de consciência enquanto atenção e presença no trabalho do ator/performer. Para tanto, num primeiro capítulo, tratamos sobre a noção de consciência no âmbito teatral, bem como os apontamentos necessários a respeito da dicotomia corpo/mente, e, em seguida, encontramos no pensamento de Francisco Varela, Yasuo Yuasa e Philip B. Zarrilli caminhos para se (re)pensar uma outra qualidade possível à consciência. Tendo como eixo norteador a análise do trabalho de Jerzy Grotowski ao final de sua vida (no período denominado Arte como Veículo), o segundo capítulo foca sobre as noções de Verticalidade, Awareness, Performer e o binômio I-I apresentados pelo diretor polonês. Além de uma análise sobre este momento da pesquisa de Grotowski, se apresenta ainda um diálogo com Varela, Yuasa e Zarrilli, a fim de privilegiar a ideia do trabalho do artista sobre si mesmo (sobre a noção de cultivo), relacionando arte e vida, entendendo neste processo a construção de uma qualidade de consciência sutil e refinada. Num terceiro momento direcionamos o foco da pesquisa para processos criativos da autora, relacionando discurso teórico e experiência vivida, a fim de encontrar os próprios caminhos na construção desta qualidade diferenciada de consciência
Abstract: This research investigates the construction of a quality of consciousness as attention and presence in the actor/performer¿s work. For this, in the first chapter, we deal on the notion of awareness in the theatrical context, as well the necessary notes about the dicothomy mind/body, and then, find the thought of Francisco Varela, Yasuo Yuasa and Philip B. Zarrilli, ways to (re)consider an another possible quality for the consciousness. Guided by the analysis the work of Jerzy Grotowski in the end of his life (the period know as Art as Vehicle), the second chapter focuses on the notions of Verticality, Awareness, Performer and the binomial I-I presented by the polish director. Besides an analysis on this momento of Grotowski¿s research, we present a dialogue with Varela, Yuasa and Zarrilli, in order to favor the Idea of the artist¿s work on himself (on the notion of "self-cultivation"), linking art and life, understanding in this process the construction of an subtle and refined quality of consciousness. In a third moment, we direct the focus of the research for creative processes of the author, relating theoretical discourse and lived experience in order to find their own ways in the construction of this particular quality of consciousness

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis features a qualitative analysis of eight Korean media products — both fiction and nonfiction. For many years, South Korea (hereafter also called Korea) has been called the "world's plastic surgery capital" by many publications, such as Business Insider and The New Yorker. Although Business Insider considers the United States the "vainest country in the world," the numbers of cosmetic surgeries, percentage wise, per person in Korea still outnumber those in the United States, with 20 procedures per 1,000 persons. In this thesis, I argue by using the cultivation theory that Korean television, such as K-Dramas, talk shows and films, which celebrate transformations and feature makeovers and thus normalize cosmetic surgery, create a fantastic space for viewers where the viewers are compelled to act on a media-generated desire to undergo cosmetic surgery in the belief that doing so will also transform or better their lives in the same way it does for the characters in these Korean television productions.

This dissertation takes Lu-liao settlement of Yunlin County as the main fieldsite in order to understand the trend of women’s cultivation in the rural Taiwan. Through the perspectives of landscape, Feminist geography, and body studies, it analyzes how women transform their secondary status to the irreplaceable position. In addition, it explores how women manage their family and interpersonal network to establish their independence and self-value. The cultivating knowledge which the Lu-liao woman constructed is twofold: the one is established from their body experience; the other is the changing value system in the rural area. (A) the establishment of body experience: through their own working habits, experiences and corporeality, women create their own cultivating styles, which contribute to the local characteristics of Lu-liao. This research also finds out that, apart from working ability and personal network, women have made themselves irreplaceable in the gender division of cultivation work. (B) the changing value system in the rural area: from Wolf’s concepts of "uterine family" and "women''s community", this research tries to locate the position and value of women in the rural community. In addition to everyday labor, it also attempts to understand their spiritual life. In so doing, we can realize the social life and normative value system which have long dominated women. The research discovers that women have made efforts to understand the value of their existence. They establish their own importance from working in the field. Hopefully, this research can provide an overall situation of women’s cultivation in Lu-liao which urge the authorities to face up to the problems of woman labor in agriculture and bring up suitable solutions.

AbstractAgricultural production systems, for example, conservation agriculture, climate smart agriculture, organic agriculture, sustainable landuse management, and others, summarized under the term “sustainable intensification,” have been introduced in African countries to increase productivity and to adapt/mitigate CC (CCAM). But the productivity of smallholder farming systems in Africa remains low. High erosion, contaminated water, threatened human health, reduced soil water, and natural resources functionality, that is, ecosystems services, and decreased biodiversity dominate. Low support in the farm environment is also responsible for this situation.It is hypothesized, based on the huge body of literature on CCAM, that the implementation of already existing arable and plant cultivation methods like crop diversity, alley crops, forage legume-based crop rotations, mulching, organic matter recycling, and reduced tillage intensity will increase CCAM performance and also farm productivity and income. Based on a brief analysis of CCAM relevant arable and plant cultivation methods and agricultural production systems potentials and challenges, this chapter offers guidance for further transforming climate robust African farming systems.

Abstract:
The Daoist experience of the world in the body and the body in the world is fundamentally an aesthetic experience, but one that must be trained through disciplines of body cultivation. Daoist body cultivation traditions are thus relevant for the task of overcoming the bifurcation between body and world, and mind and body, two insights that are explored in relation to the contemporary phenomenology and embodied cognitive science respectively. The Daoist aesthetic experience is connected to community ethics based on the principle of producing the optimal flourishing of the body and the world.

Abstract:
Recently, it is quite difficult to find an area for cultivation in the city, therefore, the backyard area in every family house in the city is also used as a farming area known as the urban farming system. The Farmer Group in the city of Yogyakarta, namely the Wijaya Kusuma Farmer Group (WK), has developed this urban farming system in their home yards by growing vegetables and fruits. With the COVID pandemic, they plan to cultivate empon-empon, herbal plants which have benefits to increase the body immunity or known as biopharmaceutical crops. Meanwhile, the Lombok Ijo Farmer Group (LI), which is in the same area as the WK, is more oriented towards making a healthy beverage from empon-empon. However, in this pandemic situation, the price of raw material for herbal drink has increased significantly. In this case, a collaboration between those two farmer groups is needed by utilizing the empon-empon cultivation produced from the WK to meet the raw material needs for herbal drinks produced by the LI. To ensure that both farmer gro ups reach good quality products and able to meet the standards for developing SMSE, it needs to assist in cultivation, post-harvest processing, until product packaging, and marketing by training.

Abstract:
Microbial substances introduced into the body of animals increase radio stability and reduce the mortality rate. The greatest significance can be obtained by using vaccines based on bacteria of the intestinal-typhoid group, which in the process of life produce antibacterial substances, enzymes, antigens, entero-and exotoxins, and cytokines with radioprotective properties. The tests revealed a complex mechanism of interaction between bifidobacteria and Escherichia in their joint cultivation. The biomass accumulation of E.coli strain «PL-6» and B.bifidum 1 during co-cultivation depended on the ratio of live bacteria E.coli strain «PL-6» and B.bifidum 1. Microcopy of smears made on days 1-4 from monocultures showed that the grown microbes in morphology corresponded to these cultures. The concentration of microorganisms, determined by tenfold dilution by the above method, was 1x109 CFU/ml - E.coli and 1x107 CFU/ml B.bifidum, with a sowing dose of each type of microbe 1x108 CFU/ml. Microcopy of smears made from a mixture of cultures showed that a dilution of 0,9:1,1-1,0:1,0 is most optimal for co-growing bifidum and Escherichia coli, since with a relatively equal number of monocultures on the 1st day Escherichiae multiply intensely, splitting the components of the Blaurock medium and inhibiting the growth of bifidum, but from the 3rd day B.bifidum begins to prevail, splitting E.coli and assimilating substances cleaved by E.coli.

Abstract:
Agricultural intensification is one of the major causes of water pollution. In recent decades, agricultural water quality degradation has become more severe, which in turn emphasizes the importance of improving and implementing sustainable agricultural practices. Precision agriculture variable rate fertilizer application technology is seen as a strategy to reduce environmental pollution caused by excessive fertilizer usage. Fertilizer input rate is altered within the field in response to factors affecting the optimal application rate. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of uniform rate and variable–rate (N) fertilizer management on surface water quality. Various physical and chemical water quality parameters at the water inlet, paddy field, irrigation canal, and drainage canals were also examined to evaluate seasonal water quality trends. Water sampling was carried out twelve times between September 2018 and July 2019, involving two cultivation seasons within a total of 60 hectares of paddy field in FELCRA Seberang Perak, Malaysia. All water quality measures fall within classes II to IV of the Malaysian National Water Quality Standards (NWQS) with the exception of P, Al, and Fe. In season one, 64% of P, 46% of Al, and 18% of Fe concentrations were found to exceed NWQS Class IV. However, the percentages were lower compared to season two. During the monitoring period, the average concentration of nitrate and ammonia in variable-rate plots was lower than uniform rate plots in both seasons. Furthermore, temperature, Dissolved Oxygen (DO), Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), pH, Cu, Fe, K, and Mn were significantly different between the two seasons of cultivation.

Abstract:
The materials of this article are devoted to research on determining the main strength characteristics of the pointed leg working body, the main difference between which and the traditionally used ones is the variable angle of crumbling. The purpose of this article was to determine the basic strength characteristics in typical cross sections ploskorezy Lancet paws, as well as identifying the degree of influence of cross-sectional dimensions of racks for efficiency. the features include the study of changes in the stress state occurring in the paw working organ in its characteristic sections, and as a consequence, the effect of these changes on the rigid rack. Modeling of working bodies and the most important working conditions, as well as calculations were performed using the "APM Win Machine" package. As a result of the conducted research, it was found that large stresses are obtained at the place of attachment of the paw to the rack and reach 193.4 MPa, and with a decrease in the cross-sectional area of the rack, its strength characteristics correspondingly decreased to a value of 85.3 MPa.

Abstract:
The aim of the paper is to evaluate teachers´ competences and their self-reflection in the teaching process. The topicality of the research presented in the paper is given by the fact that teachers at university level must prove excellent competences regardless external factors which affect the teaching process any time. Competence is the key qualified and professional job performance in any sector. The paper focuses on the competences of university teachers which they acquire and develop throughout their career. Attention is given to professionally and personality cultivating competences, part of which is also self-reflection. Self-reflection refers to a person’s ability of introspection and willingness to learn more about own abilities and skills. This will lead to a better ability to identify changes that may be required. The methodology consists in a research based on a questionnaire survey and statistical evaluation of gathered information. The paper gives an outline of the evaluation process at the Czech University of Life Sciences Prague (CZU), during which opinions of students and teachers about instruction were analysed, together with the fulfilment of selected university competences. The main body of the paper is dedicated to the statistical processing of selected data from the evaluation survey conducted by using the SPSS programme. The results indicate that there are significant deviations of teachers´ self-evaluation from the students´ opinion. The Institute of Education and Communication is going to offer courses in advanced competence development using techniques of self-reflection. This has a potential to enhance effectiveness of the teaching process at university level.
