Salo, Inna. "Current situation and forecast of the apple market conjuncture in Ukraine." Ekonomika APK 309, no. 7 (July 28, 2020): 32–38. http://dx.doi.org/10.32317/2221-1055.202007032.
Full textAbstract:
The purpose of the article is to consider the current state and forecast the conjuncture of the domestic apple market, taking into account the seasonality of their sale by all categories of farms. Research methods. The following methods are used in the research: analysis and synthesis, analytical generalizations, graphic - in the analysis of the production and sale of apples by various producers, foreign trade; balance sheet - when determining the market equilibrium of supply and demand, their changes and mutual influence, export and import supplies of fruits; statistical, extrapolation, design and calculation, mathematical modeling, decomposition of the time series - when forecasting the situation and sales volumes, taking into account the seasonality in the domestic apple market. Research results. The principal trends and peculiarities of functioning have been determined, the forecast of the domestic apple market development has been made, and structural changes in their export-import supplies have been established. On the basis of the formed balance of apples, the level of consumer security and expenses of the population was determined. The parameters of forecasting the sales volumes of these fruits by all categories of farms are considered. An economic forecasting model has been built taking into account the seasonal nature of the market. Scientific novelty. Methodical approaches to forecasting the apple market, taking into account the seasonal component, have been further developed, in particular, the optimal periods for forecasting, due to the specifics of the horticulture industry, have been established, which makes it possible to improve the quality and accuracy of the forecast. Practical significance. Taking into account that certain scientific aspects regarding forecasting the market conditions of fruit and berry products are debatable, the forecast of apple sales, taking into account the seasonal component, is an important element of strategic long-term planning for the development of the horticulture industry as part of the national economy.

Full textAbstract:
During 1989, a major environmental and health risk issue, the spraying of Alar on apples, created a furor among the American people. After hearing charges from the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) that eating Alar-laden apples significantly increased a child's risk of developing cancer, numbers of school districts dropped apples from their menus and parents poured apple juice down the drains. Apple sales plummeted. The NRDC's charges, which were disseminated by a well-planned and effective public relations campaign, brought counter-charges from the US Environmental Protection Agency, which accused the NRDC of basing its study on poor data, among other things. The core of the dispute was in the risk figures and risk interpretations being used by each organization. This study reviewed coverage in 13 newspapers during 1989 of the Alar issue. It found good and bad aspects, but little to support the degree of criticism applied by many people to media coverage of Alar. The 13 newspapers produced a total of 297 articles during the year and were not sensational in their approach. Many played the story in the prime news sections, alerting people to possible problems as suggested in most interpretations of media responsibility. Many articles also included a large number of sources and gave the apple industry a prominent voice. More problematic was their treatment of the Alar story as a hard news event, with short, superficial articles that lacked detailed analysis of the central part of the controversy—the risk issues. Four newspapers from apple-growing regions provided generally better coverage of the issue than did those from non-apple regions. The Alar issue has become a major landmark in media coverage of risk. The coverage had great economic and other repercussions that still continue. These newspapers would have been more responsible had they made health risk information more central in their coverage. Instead, reporters covered the conflict itself instead of the science behind the conflict. The study suggests a new model of risk reporting to better serve readers and viewers.

The development of Islamic economics is in a position to develop forward to very rapidly (Up to date), this starts with the emergence of several sharia financial institutions that have emerged along with efforts to accelerate economic growth in the community. Among the characteristics of the Islamic economic system is the emergence of demands to put more emphasis on the legal aspects and Islamic business ethics. So that the existing system in the Islamic economy there is an obligation to apply the principles of sharia and Islamic business ethics as well. Philosophically why the principles in Islamic economics must meet several criteria, including the principles of worship (al-tauhid), equality (al-musawat), freedom (al-hurriyat), justice (al-'adl), help- help (al-ta'awun) and tolerance (al-tasamuh). The strategic role of Islamic economics provides a very positive power for accelerating economic development in Indonesia through business partnerships with small and medium businesses. Empowerment of Islamic economics through a business partnership between Islamic financial institutions and small and medium businesses by developing real sector business activities in agriculture, such as agriculture, industry and trade as well as Islamic financial services and institutions, needs to be empowered and carried out to encourage the acceleration of national economic development and efforts to improve the economic welfare of the Indonesian people themselves.

Full textAbstract:
The paper provides an outline of the financial aspects of the foreign direct investment decision process and an understanding of how this can help attract funds for Australian petroleum exploration and development.Proposals to foreign investors are seen to require specific personal presentations. The investors' view of risk is discussed under the headings of political, economic, and environmental, and the major risk factors that require understanding are shown to be country risk; exchange rate risk—rate forecasting and exposure management; and international taxation.The techniques in assessing country risk are reviewed, and the methodology of international banks assessed. The Go/No-Go, Premium for Risk, Range of Estimates, and Risk Analysis techniques are described.In considering the forecasting of exchange rate movements it is recognized that, while there is no adequate forecasting measure, the major variables of comparative prices, interest rates, and comparative money supply require attention. The mechanistic tools of purchasing parity theory and the Fisher effect formula on interest are therefore outlined.The management strategy in the management of exchange rate movement exposure is seen to require a determination of economic exposure, the observance of basic rules in currency grouping, and market operation guidelines. A management guide is set down for reference.A reference to international taxation indicates the need of the tax planner to consider comparative taxation domicile of investment, and corporate structure.The basic taxation principles that apply are seen as the necessity to plan in after-tax terms; the importance of determining the nature and sources of taxes; and the requirement of a full knowledge of relevant double taxation agreements and local tax administration regulations.The role of the Australian petroleum industry in attracting foreign investment is seen as promoting the provision of data, increased opportunities to invest, risk reduction through tax effective opportunities, and assisting in proposal presentations.The need for earlier release of exploration data is expressed, as is the development of comprehensive updated data packages—which would include basin reviews—for use by industry. A zoning approach to areal permit size that provides for a reduction in permit size with exploration maturity is seen as an approach to increasing investment opportunities. Finally, APEA is encouraged to take a leading role in encouraging foreign investment through direct participation in presentations.

Full textAbstract:
The clinical manifestations of PRRS virus infection vary from subclinical to severe reproductive failure and/or respiratory disease. Severity of PRRS virus associated disease may result from interactions among factors involving differences in virulence among PRRS virus isolates, probable recombination between the different isolates that are responsible for the clinical manifestation of PRRS in the same farm, differences in concurrent infections (other viruses and bacteria) and hygiene monitoring programme. It is known that viruses and bacteria interacted and the most common model of this interaction is that pathogens bacteria complicate the lesions that are due to viruses. PRRS virus induces predisposition to Streptococcus suis in nursery age pigs and increases susceptibility to Salmonella choleraesuis, Bordetella bronchiseptica and Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae. Furthermore, PRRS virus is involved in aetiology and predispose to appearance of Porcine Respiratory Disease Complex (PRDC) Postweaning Multisystemic Wasting Syndrome (PMWS) and Porcine Dermatitis and Nephropathy Syndrome (PDNS). The respiratory form of PRRS co-infection with Aujeszky' disease causes severe losses in swine herds due to respiratory problems. In cases of PRRS co-infections with other agents, the cost of pork meat production is raised from the treatments and other special management strategies. Up to date, in Greece, PRRS is appeared with the enzootic form (independendy of the season) with elevations and declines. In Greek swine industry, PRRS virus is involved as primary pathogen agent in cautions of mortality of growing/finishing pigs. During the last years, the presence of the new syndromes of PRDC, PMWS and PDNS causes additional economical losses and increases the cost of Greek pork meat production. The unpublished data of editors indicate that during last year, PRRS caused severe losses in Greek swine industry. Cases of PRRS were noticed in farms which purchased gilts or piglets without keeping out preventive facilities of biosecurity as quarantine, serology examinations etc. The syndrome was appeared with the respiratory form in growing/finishing pigs associated with severe losses, due to the entrance of «new» different isolates of PRRS virus from the purchase of gilts or piglets. It is probably that these «new» different isolates were more virulent than the preexisted isolates or/and predominated with them. In cases, where severe respiratory signs in growing/finishing pigs and no or moderate reproductive form of PRRS were noticed, it is probable that the vaccinations of sows against PRRS did not protect the growing/finishing pigs or the «new» different isolates of PRRS virus had more respiratory than reproductive tropism or coexistenced in all earlier circumstances. Today, PRRS is a dangerous risk factor for the Greek swine industry and for this reason it is important to apply all preventive facilities as: vaccinations, reduction of the introduction gilts and maintenance of a grandparent nucleus in the farm for producing gilts, quarantine and serological monitoring for all introduced animals (gilts and piglets), as well as the purchase of animals from PRRS-negative farms. The purchase of piglets has to be avoided because it induces negative effects on the clinical manifestation and control of PRRS.

Full textAbstract:
The article is devoted to organizational and economic aspects of the creation and functioning of horticultural innovation-oriented enterprises and substantiates scientific approaches to the development of such production and economic structures. The objective of every economic entity in the competitive economy is to maximize the profit that may be achieved not only by producing fruitful products, but by its successful sale in certain terms and markets. This is primarily due to the fact that, under market conditions for horticultural enterprises, agrobiological potential is already insufficient to effectively grow fruit and berry crops. Therefore, innovation’s activity and its results are a prerequisite for successful management of the horticulture industry in Ukraine, namely: the transition to models of horticultural innovation-oriented enterprises which will be able to ensure the competitiveness of grown fruit products in both its domestic and foreign markets. The object of the investigations was the process of innovative development of horticultural enterprises and the construction of an economic and mathematical model of optimization of pome fruits (apples) sales – the basis of the industry in most regions of Ukraine. On the research basis of organizational and economic features of innovative development in the article the economic-mathematical optimization model of production and sale (apples) in a horticultural innovation-oriented enterprise is grounded. This is the experimental farm of the Podilsky Horticultural Research Station as a testing ground for innovative developments in fruitful production. Optimization of the structure of production and sales of products on the basis of the proposed model in this horticultural enterprise allows to significantly increase the profitability of growing apple’s orchards (from 0.9 million to 35.4 million UAH). Due to its high efficiency, this innovative project can be extended to other horticultural enterprises of Ukraine, in particular in the Podillya. Keywords: simulation, competitiveness, innovative development, horticultural enterprises, economic and mathematical model, realization, maximum profit, optimization, innovation-oriented enterprises.

Full textAbstract:
The article considers the problems of spatial development of Russian regions in the digital era. Based on the comprehension of modern scientific and theoretical views on the application of the spatial approach in foreign and domestic practice of regional management and the results of using the methods of strategic and factor analysis, a high level of subjectivity was revealed in determining the priorities of territorial development, ignoring specific features and significant industry factors economic growth. A new formulation of the economic category “spatial and sectoral development of the region” is proposed, which allows concretizing the general distinctive features of the development of the subjects of the Russian Federation. The priority directions of the spatial and sectoral development of the RF regions have been clarified on the basis of an analysis of a wide range of factors that determine existing and new problems in terms of territorial and sectoral criteria. There have been considered the factors impeding building up competitive advantages in the sectoral section of the regional economy, including making decisions on optimizing various kinds of costs for scenario options for their elimination; to intensify an adaptive response to the need to develop targeted strategic documents focused on the creation of innovative industries, the introduction of digital technologies and competencies that contribute to the production of high-tech competitive products in the context of active digitalization of society. There appears an opportunity to create new jobs, improve the qualifications of personnel in order to obtain and apply the required professional knowledge. There have been made the conclusions: spatial and sectoral development based on the modern provisions of the theory of regional economics takes on the functions of digital processing and diagnostics of various kinds of information in the management of territories of a constituent entity of the Russian Federation and becomes the foundation for the development, adoption and implementation of policy documents, which is confirmed by the practice of the regional administration of the Perm region.

Purpose Australia has a huge stock of community buildings built up over decades. Their replacements consume a large sum of money from country’s economy which has called for a strategy for their sustainable management. For this, a comprehensive decision-making structure is an utmost requirement. The purpose of this paper is to capture their sustainable management from four aspects, i.e. environmental, economic, social and functional. Design/methodology/approach The design process follows an extensive review of environmental and life cycle assessments and company context documents. Extracted factors are tailored to community buildings management following expert consultation. However, the resulted list of factors is extremely large, and “factor analysis” technique is used to group the factors. For this, an industry-wide questionnaire across Australian local councils is employed to solicit opinions of the list of factors. Findings The analysis has pinpointed 18 key parameters (criteria) to represent all four aspects. This paper presents the preliminary findings of the factors and the analysis results based on the questionnaire responses. Practical implications The final decision-making structure incorporates all these aspects and criteria. This can be used to develop a decision-making model which produces a sustainability index for building components. Asset managers can mainly use the sustainability index to prioritise their maintenance activities and eventually, to find out cost-optimisation options for them. Originality/value Most notably, this is the first study to apply all four sustainability aspects (environmental, economic, social and functional) to develop a decision-making structure for Australian community buildings’ sustainable management.

Purpose Research on sustainability has progressed from a singular focus on one aspect to a simultaneous focus on more than one aspect of the triple bottom line. However, there is a dearth of research that explains why sustainability-related decisions in business often do not bear the expected results. Research that provides managers with a tool to achieve environmental sustainability of logistics without compromising the economic sustainability is scarce. Hence, the purpose of this paper is to bridge the above gaps and to explore the factors that affect investment in technology to balance environmental and economic sustainability of logistics. A model based on system dynamics approach explains the simultaneous interplay of these factors. Simulating the model helps the managers of logistics function decide the size of investment in technology, to achieve environmental efficiency without negatively influencing the economic performance. Design/methodology/approach A model based on system dynamics approach explains the simultaneous interplay of these factors. Simulating the model helps the managers of logistics function decide the size of investment in technology, to achieve ecological efficiency without compromising with the economic performance. Findings Collaboration with regulatory authorities and with players within the same industry and across industries is a must so that eco-logistics does not become an economic burden for businesses. The decision to invest in technology for eco-logistics is further accentuated if the technology promises some added economic benefits. Research limitations/implications From a theoretical perspective, the research has added to the less extensive literature on system dynamics modelling, which is a mixed methodology, combining both qualitative and quantitative techniques. The research is also one of the few attempts that have attempted to simultaneously study more than one aspects of sustainability in business, quantitatively through simulation. Simulation was demonstrated through a single case study, Future works can aim to apply the causal loop diagram to firms in varied sectors. Practical implications The managers can use the causal loop diagram to assess the environmental performance of logistics and decide on appropriate level of investment to balance ecological and economic performance of logistics. Originality/value The causal loop diagram has been developed through primary data collection via semi-structured interviews. The results were validated by presenting them to respondents to ensure they represent their view points. The results are, therefore, practical and original. This research does not build upon an existing data set or aims to test the applicability of any existing model. The model for this research has been developed from the grass-roots level.

Introduction. In the development and introduction of medicines into production, the aim of pharmaceutical manufacturers is to comply with the principle of «Quality-by-Design» (QbD). The International Council for Harmonisation (ICH) has created a number of GxP standards, which have become the regulatory framework for the development of documentation regulating the requirements for the development and production of drug products for countries focused on bringing their products to the world pharmaceutical market. The analysis of the system of regulation of pharmaceutical stages of development of new drugs in the territory of the Eurasian Economic Union was not considered, but for the formation of a systematic approach to the management of the process of pharmaceutical development it is necessary to describe them.Aim. To analyze the possibility of applying the QbD principle to the process of drug development at domestic pharmaceutical enterprises.Materials and methods. Content analysis of scientific publications, system and comparative analysis, sociological methods of research in the field of pharmaceutical development.Results and discussions. Regulatory state requirements to the organization and conduct of drug development procedures are analyzed and described. A number of systemic and sectoral problems typical for domestic pharmaceutical manufacturers in the organization of the development and implementation of new drug products. It is established that one of the main problems for Russian enterprises was the organization of the process as a whole and its individual procedures. To solve the problem of organization of procedures for the development and implementation of new medicines, we formed a methodological support, developed on the basis of a systematic approach and international requirements from the quality system.Conclusion. The main problem identified by the manufacturers is the lack of methodological support for the organization of the processes of pharmaceutical development and the introduction of new drugs in the part of research going to the stage of preclinical and clinical development. The decisions adopted by the Eurasian Economic Union do not affect such aspects of pharmaceutical development regulation as the organization of processes, their management and methodological support aimed at the implementation of the QbD principle. To solve this problem, we have developed guidelines for the implementation of the processes of pharmaceutical development and the introduction of new drug products, which allowed us to apply unified and formalized approaches to their organization.

Transition to a new industrial revolution (“Industry 4.0”) in power engineering has stimulated introduction of advanced efficient equipment through modernization of existing or construction of new power units. At this stage, production processes are now characterized by deep integration of information technologies. This does not only apply to the processes of financial and economic acivities, but also the processes of providing up-to-date information on the current state of equipment, various supporting systems (security, fi re safety, movement control, work progress control, etc.) for making decisions in real time, as well as predictive analytics.Raising the efficiency of management of equipment maintenance and repair is a top priority issue. The proper setup of this process does not only determine the quality and operability of equipment, but also the accuracy of evaluation of expenditure, which eventually affects the company’s financial standing. Therefore, the author is set to analyze the causes preventing efficient implementation of the process of equipment maintenance and repair at fuel and energy complex companies and suggests measures for their possible adjustment.Key aspects are formed, which enable the organizations involved to get closer to more accurate formation of repair and maintenance operations.Measures are presented that enable to create and develop a proper working system for the management of maintenance and repair measures.

In my study, I investigate whether it is possible to prove the hypothesis that investing in responsible, sustainable companies can be financially more rewarding from the perspective of investors, i.e. can result in higher profit than investing in companies that ignore these aspects. My further assumption is that this profit can be increased if I apply different restrictions or relative scores. I tested my hypotheses empirically on data from the New York Stock Exchange, both on investment strategies (portfolio creation) and at stock level (regression). I performed the tests for the total market, in detailed industry breakdowns and groupings as well. I tested the examined indicators (ESG, ENV) in isolation and with a relative approach, over several time horizons. For most of the tests, I obtained non-significant results; for some industries a minor negative impact can be seen, and for the regressions I obtained coefficients that are significant, but of negligible economic significance. Temporal decomposition shows the increasing significance of ESG and ENV, but even for the later time series it is not considered significant. The results suggest that the aspects under investigation are not yet priced by the market, so my hypotheses were not confirmed. This could be due to the greenwashing phenomenon or the developed US market.

Abstract This article provides a detailed ethnographic intervention to the phenomenon of value-added agriculture, a discourse that has attained several concrete forms in Australian wine industry policy, and which is routinely presented as a legitimate rural future in wider agricultural and social science research. The legal and policy architecture of 'Geographical Indications' purports to value the regional distinctiveness of agricultural areas, by creating legally-defined wine regions. Producers from these wine regions enjoy privileged access to the use of regional descriptors that apply to their products, and the constitution of such wine regions can also codify the relationships between this regional identity and concrete viticultural and winemaking practices. This article draws on ethnographic research within the Clare Valley region of South Australia, one of the first Australian wine regions to be formally constituted as a legal entity, to examine in close detail the relationships that this region's wine producers have with their own discrete areas of operation. These ethnographic illustrations highlight that the creation of economic value within the premium wine industry cannot be reduced to the technical aspects of viticulture and oenology, nor the legal and policy means by which relationships between products and land are codified. Rather, the nuanced social understandings of landscape that wine producers are consistently developing is a critical element of cultural and commercial infrastructure that affords any wine producer or grape grower the possibility of achieving monopolistic relationships over discrete vineyard areas and the wine that is produced from them. These social understandings have a specifically egalitarian character that acts as a hedge against the chronic uncertainties arising from the global economic environment in which premium wine industry is inescapably a part. This resistance to codification, I argue, is a productive space that constitutes a form of resilience against chronically unstable sets of commercial and environmental conditions. Keywords: monopoly, regional rents, occupational discourse, intellectual property, Geographic Indications, Australian agrarian futures

Introduction. In the conditions of dependence on the imported energy resources there is a problem of ensuring stability of the energy industry with counteraction to changes of the ambient and a possibility of reacting to actions for providing competitive positions and advantages of the state. A number of problems in energy industry need a support of necessary level of the energy security on the basis of providing own extraction with volume reduction of imported energy resources, increasing of the national products’ competitiveness in the world markets, development of innovations and investments into energy efficient technologies. In such conditions, it’s important to apply actions for ensuring economic security of the energy sector through the creating of an efficient program for the protection of the national interests in the energy sector, which will contribute to the national economy development.
Aim and tasks. The purpose of article is a researching of energy security and developing actions for state regulation of energy security.
Research results. The article outlines the priority directions of the state policy on ensuring the energy sector development which are identified as a main risks and adverse factors of influence on functioning of energy industry of Ukraine. And the necessity of energy security systems formation at the state level is grounded. The perspective increasing directions of energy security are the establishment of more adapted to transformations system of state regulation with market self-regulation elements. The state regulation of energy security in conditions of high level internationalization of national economy should be aimed at the harmonization of its technological and institutional aspects which influence the development and implementation of energy technologies and projects related to renewable energy sources. The state regulation requires further active development of institutional conditions for use of alternative energy resources and energy saving based on renewable energy.
Conclusion. To provide energy security it is necessary to improve the complex program of its development which will involve wide use of state regulation methods as well as public-private partnership development so the support of the implementation of investment projects will be provided. The important aspect in development of energy engineering is ensuring its economic security which will allow to level possible threats of the industry and to provide requirements of fuel and energy complex and industry for a long term. Energy security should be directed towards increasing energy efficiency which will promote reducing imports and depending on the supply of energy resources by other countries. State regulation of energy security should ensure the rational use of the energy sector potential and stable functioning of the energetic supply system which includes: implementation of energy efficiency and energy saving policies; increase of investment in energy engineering; reduction of environmental impact and emissions.

Purpose This paper aims to explore the impact of organizational structure dimensions on innovation performance as well as its implications on business customers’ relationship value and financial performance in the business-to-business (B2B) market of the Greek advertising and media industry. Design/methodology/approach Based on a sample of 180 executives, who are at the helm of 163 Greek advertising and media organizations, the authors apply the partial least square method to test the association of organizational structure with innovation performance, business customers’ relationship value and financial outcomes. Findings Findings have brought to light that training boosts organization’s capacity to innovate, whereas direct supervision as a coordination mechanism significantly restricts this capacity. Innovation performance in the advertising B2B market fosters business customers’ relationship value and financial performance, while financial outcomes are also beneficially affected by profitable relationships with customer relationship value. Practical implications Because of the dramatic decline in their profitability caused by the economic crisis in the past five years, Greek advertising and media companies are threatened with extinction; thus, they are required to enhance their effectiveness through the adoption of a more innovation-oriented structure. Thus, managers should facilitate structures supporting training and delimiting direct supervision to foster the development of a competitive advantage built on innovation, creativity and business clients’ relationship. Originality/value This study contributes to the existing relationship marketing literature because it introduced Mintzberg’s typology to measure organizational structure and led to the diagnosis of the associations between different dimensions of organizational structure and various aspects of performance in the media and advertising industry, revealing the partial mediating role of customer relationship value between innovation and financial performance in the B2B market.

This paper assesses the economic benefits of 57 World Bank Group-sponsored hydropower dam plant investments. Hydropower dams are among the main sources for producing electricity and the largest renewable source for power generation throughout the world. Hydropower dams are often a lower-cost option for power generation in Clean Energy Transition for addressing global climate change. Despite its conspicuous aspects, constructing hydropower dams has been controversial. Considering the World Bank’s long history as the largest hydropower development financier, this study investigates its performance in supporting hydropower dams. The outcomes of this study apply to the wider hydropower development community. Of the projects in this study, 70% experienced a cost overrun, and more than 80% of projects experienced time overruns, incurring potential additional costs as a result. Despite the high cost and time overruns, this hydropower portfolio of dams produced a present value of net economic benefits by 2016 of over half a trillion USD. Based on our findings, the evaluated hydropower portfolio helped avoid over a billion tonnes of CO2 for an estimated global environmental benefit valued at nearly USD 350 billion. The projects’ additional environmental benefits raise the real rate of return from 15.4% to 17.3%. The implication for hydropower developers is that the projects’ assessment should consider cost and time overrun and factor them into the project-planning contingency scenarios. There is a considerable benefit for developing countries to exploit their hydropower resources if they can be developed according to industry practices and international standards. The case for developing hydropower may be stronger when considering its climate benefits. The net economic benefits of hydropower can be even higher if there is a greater effort to manage cost and time overruns.

“Industry 4.0”, demographical and value changes as well as other numerous factors transform approaches to company competitive performance a lot. New business models require modern approaches to increase labour and human resources management effi ciency. Changes on the labour market are refl ected in new social and economic models — share economy is rapidly developing. On the one hand, part-time job, short-term work contracts, remote work provide decrease of personnel costs and, on the other hand, they give an opportunity to attract people with necessary professional competencies in the company. Research results are presented by system analysis and characteristic of elements of remote work. The evolution of the studied approach to employment and workplace management is presented in the article. Also, both positive and negative aspects of remote work to an employee and an employer are described. In terms of HR-strategy implementation the focus is made on the novelty in the Labour Code of the Russian Federation from the point of the use of remote work. Some technological solutions on how to organize remote work are described. Benchmarking includes the practices of such companies as the bank «Tinkoff», «Automattic», «Apple», «CSSSR», «Beeline». Applicability of remote work is proved by the review of platforms providing communication between employers and professional employees. Development prospects of remote work is based on a number of international researches. The research is carried out by a project team by the request of management of the group of companies. Their aim is to use HR-strategy to provide a breakthrough in labour and HR management efficiency — the optimization of personnel costs with the increase of staff potential quality based on the current trend of remote work.

Vietnam’s garment industry is facing many challenges, including domestic competition and the global market. The free trade agreement, which Vietnam signed, includes environmental barriers, sustainable development, and green development. The agreement further requires businesses to make efforts to improve not only product quality but also the production process. In cases when enterprises cause environmental pollution in the production process and do not apply solutions to reduce waste, save energy, and natural resources, there is a risk of no longer receiving orders or orders being rejected, especially orders from the world’s major branded garment companies. In this research, the authors propose a multicriteria decision-making model (MCDM) for optimizing the supplier evaluation and selection process for the garment industry using sustainability considerations. In the first stage of this research, all criteria affecting supplier selection are determined by a triple bottom line (TBL) model (economic, environmental, and social aspects) and literature reviews; in addition, the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP) method was utilized to identify the weight of all criteria in the second stage. The technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution (TOPSIS) is a multicriteria decision analysis method, which is used for ranking potential suppliers in the final stage. As a result, decision-making unit 10 (DMU/10) is found to be the best supplier for the garment industry. The contribution of this research includes modeling the supplier selection decision problem based on the TBL concept. The proposed model also addresses different complex problems in supplier selection, is a flexible design model for considering the evaluation criteria, and is applicable to supplier selection in other industries.

Full textAbstract:
Animal welfare is increasingly important for the Australian livestock industries, to maintain social licence to practice as well as ensuring market share overseas. Improvement of animal welfare in the livestock industries requires several important key steps. Paramount among these, objective measures are needed for welfare assessment that will enable comparison and contrast of welfare implications of husbandry procedures or housing options. Such measures need to be versatile (can be applied under a wide range of on- and off-farm situations), relevant (reveal aspects of the animal’s affective or physiological state that is relevant to their welfare), reliable (can be repeated with confidence in the results), relatively economic to apply, and they need to have broad acceptance by all stakeholders. Qualitative Behavioural Assessment (QBA) is an integrated measure that characterises behaviour as a dynamic, expressive body language. QBA is a versatile tool requiring little specialist equipment suiting application to in situ assessments that enables comparative, hypothesis-driven evaluation of various industry-relevant practices. QBA is being increasingly used as part of animal welfare assessments in Europe, and although most other welfare assessment methods record ‘problems’ (e.g. lameness, injury scores, and so on), QBA can capture positive aspects of animal welfare (e.g. positively engaged with their environment, playfulness). In this viewpoint, we review the outcomes of recent QBA studies and discuss the potential application of QBA, in combination with other methods, as a welfare assessment tool for the Australian livestock industries.

Abstract It is known that in all Western European countries, during the 20th century was initiated, developed, applied and consolidated the bio-scientific principle of agriculture zootehnization, so this trend continues in the first two decades of the 21st century. Based of the official data of EUROSTAT, this article presents the concrete situation of the dynamics of the two main livestock productions, respectively milk and meat, using annual data, namely those published in 2016 and 2017. The authors use new bio-scientific arguments to analyze and interpret the concept of agriculture zootehnization, with unprecedented and documented ighlighting of polyvalent and synergistic aspects, between the effective zootechnical practice of the performing agriculture (on the one hand) and the bioeconomic management of animal husbandry (on the other hand). Thus, the authors report the fact that at 21 611 thousand head dairy cows in the EU (excluding the United Kingdom), is collected a production of 138 511 thousand tonnes milk, with a average milk production of 6 409.29 kg / head, of which in the milk industry (Table 3. with those 14 selected countries), the year is obtained, in thousand tons, 30 087 dairy products (milk for consumption, milk powder, butter and cheese). In the same sense, the authors present and analyze the dynamics of meat production from the farm livestock and they find that the annual values for carcass weight in thousands tons are for bovine 6,885, for pigs 22,522 and for sheep 423, which highlights a real zootechnical, genetic and bio-productive potential. We underline that in two synthesis tables, the authors present the numerical situation of the relations between the European Union and Romania, so in a professional way, through a new bio-scientific argument it is justifiably demonstrated that Romania needs to develop inter-, multi-and transdisciplinary and to apply a real country project for the Carpatho-Danubiano-Pontic autochthon space in its European context.

The purpose of this article is to examine the relationship of sustainable manufacturing process and sustainability performance, which considers the environmental, economic, and social aspects. Sustainable manufacturing considering ecological system and corrosion properties has attracted interest in gaining deep insights into the application of daily business operations. Currently, there is an internal pressure in the firms to reduce the costs of production, increase the product quantity with quality, minimize the defects and reliability as well as facilitate faster and flexible delivery. In addition, these firms attempt to seek to satisfy end users and improve operational efficiency. Market pressure, society’s demand for environmental-friendly process, and regulatory compliance are mostly discussed as additional pressure to the green operations initiative in the automotive firms. In this article, an existing model was designed using the computer-aided design software and the results were analyzed to fill research gaps in the effects of the eco-system on environmental and operational performance. This study provides new research opportunities for developing models in building simulation-based design of eco-efficient systems. Finally, the article suggests that the operations should apply parsimony principles of ecosystem measurements to foresee the imminent organizational outcome to enlighten industry counterparts with guidance to enhance further robust statistical modeling and construct development.

Full textAbstract:
Population growth, along with a rapid urban expansion, is imposing a heavy pressure on the planet’s finite resources. It is widely acknowledged that the building industry consumes large amounts of raw materials while generating waste and emissions. To set apart economic growth from environmental repercussions, the Circular Economy (CE) arose as an innovative paradigm that can offer a fast-track towards a sustainable built environment. This paper will tackle a research gap that academia and policymakers often highlighted, which is how can we apply CE to assets that are predominantly meant to be demolished and their resources wasted when they reach their end-of-life. Globally, the paradigm aims at erasing the waste concept, relying on renewable and regenerative sources, and keeping the materials, components, and systems in use at their highest value as long as possible. The concept’s implementation would attempt to consider the built environment as a closed-loop system wherein resources are viewed as a scarce commodity. Although the CE seems straightforward, translating the circular thinking to the building level might be a hardship. The following paper will attempt to shed light on how to promote CE in buildings that will ultimately lead to healthier, more efficient, and more sustainable cities on a broader scale. The proposed framework considers CE implementation strategies throughout the building’s lifecycle and mainly deals with three innovative aspects: wise resource management, building design approaches, and digitalization of the building industry. In this sense, this study will explore these game-changing factors that are considered paramount to concretize the concept in practice and provide a smooth pathway for CE uptake in buildings.

Full textAbstract:
The recent changes in Australia’s climate, the likelihood of further changes over the next decades to centuries, and the likely significant impacts of these changes on the Australian livestock industries, provide increasing urgency to explore adaptation options more effectively. Climate and atmospheric changes are likely to impact on the quantity and reliability of forage production; forage quality; thermal stress on livestock; water demands for both animal needs and for growing forage; pest, disease and weed challenges; land degradation processes; and various social and economic aspects including trade. Potential adaptation options are available for moderate climate changes, with these often being variations of existing climate risk management strategies. However, to date there are few Australian examples where these adaptations have been assessed systematically on any scale (e.g. enterprise, regional, whole of industry or national). Nor have many studies been undertaken in a way that (i) effectively harness industry knowledge, (ii) undertake climate change analyses in the framework of existing operational systems, or (iii) assess climate change in the context of other socioeconomic or technical changes. It is likely that there are limits to the effectiveness of existing adaptations under more severe climate changes. In such cases more systemic changes in resource allocation need considering, such as targeted diversification of production systems and livelihoods. Dealing with the many barriers to effective adaptation will require ‘mainstreaming’ climate change into policies covering a range of scales, responsibilities and issues. This mainstreaming will facilitate the development of comprehensive, dynamic and long lasting policy solutions. The integrative nature of climate change problems requires science to include integrative elements in the search for solutions: a willingness to apply integrated rather than disciplinary science and a strengthening of the interface with decision-makers.

In today's world issues of educational quality are becoming increasingly important. Today the quality of train-ing is determined by its readiness for effective professional activity, the ability to adapt to rapidly changing and un-certain conditions of the modern world, professional skills, as well as the ability to use the acquired knowledge in solving professional problems. In modern research on the peculiarities of training specialists for future employment, considerable attention is paid to various aspects of economic education. The process of continuous improvement of professional training of higher education seekers requires a constant search for new tools, methods and tools to im-prove the educational process, and, accordingly, research on this issue. The purpose of the article is to analyze the features, trends, competencies and new tools in preparing future international economists for effective work. The four main areas of employment of international economists include: international institutions and organizations; interna-tional corporations and other structures of international business; domestic business structures; public authorities and public institutions. In the modern period, the competence approach is the most important factor in ensuring the quality of higher education. Competences are formed comprehensively, in the process of all forms and activities of the applicant. Innovative education involves its focus on obtaining innovative skills of applicants, which involves their gradual involvement in research, project development and more. Dissemination of the results of the fourth industrial revolution ("Industry 4.0") and the emergence of an era of innovation, when advanced technologies radically change entire sectors of the economy and society as a whole, requires skills to apply these technologies in various fields of international economics. The peculiarity of the analyzed educational program "International Economy" is the focus on the requirements and needs of the urban labor market, the needs of the urban economy through constant interac-tion with stakeholders. Keywords: educational and professional program, creative abilities, competence approach, cross-cultural com-ponent.

Full textAbstract:
Over the last three decades, a cluster approach, unlike other theories and models of competitive territories’ industry development, has become quite popular in regional management practices. Many scientific publications examine the phenomenon of industrial cluster and its importance for boosting the social and economic development in the territories, although the interinfluence mechanism of the industrial cluster and regional social and economic system is still underdeveloped. As a result, managers responsible for the cluster policy at the level of a political unit are not equipped with sufficient theoretical and methodological knowledge which could enable them to accept the advantages of territories’ cluster development, as well as to see the detrimental effects of clusterization at their initial stage and to eliminate them. One of the key reasons for poor understanding of the two-directional impact of the industrial cluster and region’s social and economic environment lies in the authenticity of the theoretical approaches to cluster exploration which focus either on the social and economic (system, institutional, and network approaches) or geographical (agglomeration, classic, and administrative approaches) sides of this phenomenon. The purpose of the research is to simulate the interinfluence mechanism of the region’s social and economic environment and industrial cluster with regard to the synthesis of the social and economic and geographic aspects of clusterization based on the uniquely designed system and agglomeration approach. To systematize and to structurize the theoretical provisions of the cluster theory, the article describes an algorithm designed to implement the system criteria-based approach to analyze theories concerning the mutual impact of a region and industrial cluster. This algorithm includes three stages: 1) a preliminary stage which applies scoping study methodology to define form and content criteria to the analysis of the cluster theories and works out the selection principles and mechanisms for the scientific publications; 2) a static stage with the identification of the scientific approaches and schools in the structure of cluster theory; 3) a stage of dynamic analysis which examines the development of cluster theory over time, as well as the weak and strong points of the approach in question under the relevant trends in cluster scientific discourse. The application of the systematic criteria-based approach reveals six approaches typical for the development of cluster theory: classic, network, agglomeration, institutional, administrative, systematic. These approaches are characterized in terms of Russian and English economic discourses due to the differences in academic communities and institutional prerequisites for the development of cluster theory. The analysis shows that the approaches could be conceptually categorized into two groups. The first group of approaches includes classic, agglomeration, and administrative approaches and focuses on the territorial geographical dimension of the industrial cluster, is characterized with the detailed examination of its financial grounds and methodological tools for recording the cluster boundaries, sees the cluster as a whole unit. At the same time, the first group of the approaches does not pay sufficient attention to the social and economic ties within the industrial cluster and mechanisms of its impact on the region’s social and economic environment, which actually becomes the key point of the second group of approaches – network, system, and institutional. Closer inspection of the evolution of the scientific approaches reveals that neither of them gives any comprehensive analysis of the mutual impact of the regional social and economic environment and industrial cluster. To close the gap, the article offers a systemic and agglomeration approach which covers both social, economic, and geographic aspects of interinfluence of the systems in question. The uniquely designed approach helps the scholars develop a theoretical model of a mechanism, which reveals the true nature of the genesis of adverse and positive clusterization effects and provides a wide range of opportunities to timely management impact. What is more, when the authors define cluster as a geographical site in terms of system and agglomeration approach, they could apply a number of generalizing indicators (for example, gross cluster product) characterizing the impact of regional environment on both the organizations within the cluster and on the cluster as it is with regard to its cultural environment, infrastructure, and social economic wellbeing of the region’s population. The system and agglomeration approach described and the interinfluence mechanism of the regional social economic environment and industrial cluster can be applied by the experts in regional management, as well as by the scholars to develop and to study the basics of the regional cluster policy. Further studies are seen to lie in proposing evaluation and forecasting tools for the industrial cluster development in the industrially developed regions to choose the efficient measures of cluster policy at the regional level.

Abstract. The U.S. apple industry, which generated more than $2.7 billion in revenue at the farm gate in 2013, is facing critical challenges with decreased availability of labor and increased labor and production costs. To address these challenges, a self-propelled apple harvest and in-field sorting machine is being developed in our laboratory. This article reports on the economic evaluation of this prototype machine by considering machine cost (annual ownership and operating costs), harvest productivity increase (including that due to decreased occupational injuries), and cost savings in postharvest storage and packing resulting from in-field sorting of fresh market quality apples from processing apples for both fresh apple growers and processing apple growers. The economic evaluation was conducted based on the assumptions that the machine increases harvest productivity by 43% to 63% and operates for 360 h during the harvest season. For fresh apple orchards with processing apple incidences of 5% to 15%, the net annual benefits that would accrue from owning one machine range from $13,500 to $78,400 when the machine price is between $100,000 and $160,000. For processing apple orchards with processing apple incidences of 80% to 90% and the same machine price range, the net annual benefits that would accrue from owning one machine range from $23,900 to $81,700. Overall, the benefits gained from in-field sorting outweigh those from the harvest productivity increase, and integration of the harvest-assist and in-field sorting functions is more beneficial to apple growers. This technology will help the U.S. apple industry improve labor productivity and reduce production costs, and thus it looks promising for commercialization. Keywords: Apples, Economic evaluation, Harvest-assist, In-field sorting, Machinery system, Occupational injuries.

Purpose – Environmental friendliness, in context of industrial operations, is an issue that has evoked much interest among environmentalists, governments, academicians and other sections of society in recent times. The said development has been more profound and broad-based in developed economies of the world, though, the trend is catching fast in developing countries, as well. Green Supply Chain Management (GSCM) is a management technique that aims to make a supply chain eco-friendly, without diluting the organizational objectives. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the scale of adoption and implementation of GSCM practices in the context of Indian industries. Design/methodology/approach – The investigation used literature review approach to determine the current status of implementation of GSCM by Indian industry, and associated aspects of the same. Literature pertaining to the subject in context of non-Indian industries has also been studied for the purpose of rudimentary knowledge on the management concept, as well for comparing the measures taken by foreign-based companies with Indian ones. Findings – The study shows that in general, Indian companies are lacking on the front of adoption and implementation of GSCM measures in their supply chains. Though, certain companies are showing appreciable enthusiasm for the eco-friendly concept, the same does not apply to majority of the Indian enterprises, owing to a multitude of factors. GSCM has the potential to drive economic gains, and can act as a big motivator for companies to go green. As India leaps towards higher levels of industrialization and economic growth, GSCM becomes more of a necessity rather than an option for Indian companies to survive the competition. Practical implications – Findings from this study helps in discerning the present status of GSCM in the country, and assess the same in comparison to that of developed countries. The findings will also help the firms to have a greater understanding of their current standing and the possible gains that can accrue by adoption of GSCM practices in real. The philosophy, stance and endeavours of government with respect to GSCM has also been spelt out in the paper. The paper contributes to the literature by providing empirical evidence on various aspects of GSCM in the country and the trajectory that it will chart in future. Originality/value – The paper though, brings forth the findings of other researches on the subject of GSCM practices in India in a consolidated manner, yet its value is reflected in the cohesive manner in which contrary findings have been analysed to present a comprehensive and holistic picture of GSCM implementation in India. An attempt has been made not only to assess the inputs of individual firms, but also of government and other stakeholders in their efforts to make supply chains more environment friendly.

The research objective. To increase the efficiency of transportation, it is necessary to find out the possibilities of using GPS-navigation technology in automation of accounting and control. The statement of basic materials. On the basis of data from the system of global positioning it is advisable to automate the calculation of the self-cost of provided transport services. It is necessary to apply a two-dimensional calculating unit – “ton-kilometer”, which fully considers of the conditions of a vehicle management. Since all the credentials are received solely in electronic form, the need for the formation of printed copies of primary documents is reduced. Accelerating the receipt of necessary information for the adoption of operational management decisions. Conclusions. The introduction of the global positioning system ensures the collection and processing of accounting information without the direct involvement of employees of the enterprise, documentation and document management exclusively in electronic mode, reliable and timely calculation of the cost of transport services.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to review and provide recommendations to extend the current open standard data models for describing monitoring systems and circular economy precepts for built assets. Open standard data models enable robust and efficient data exchange which underpins the successful implementation of a circular economy. One of the largest opportunities to reduce the total life cycle cost of a built asset is to use the building information modelling (BIM) approach during the operational phase because it represents the largest share of the entire cost. BIM models that represent the actual conditions and performance of the constructed assets can boost the benefits of the installed monitoring systems and reduce maintenance and operational costs. Design/methodology/approach This paper presents a horizontal investigation of current BIM data models and their use for describing circular economy principles and performance monitoring of built assets. Based on the investigation, an extension to the industry foundation classes (IFC) specification, recommendations and guidelines are presented which enable to describe circular economy principles and asset monitoring using IFC. Findings Current open BIM data models are not sufficiently mature yet. This limits the interoperability of the BIM approach and the implementation of circular economy principles. An overarching approach to extend the current standards is necessary, which considers aspects related to not only modelling the monitoring system but also data management and analysis. Originality/value To the authors’ best knowledge, this is the first study that identifies requirements for data model standards in the context current linear economic model of making, using and disposing is growing unsustainably far beyond the finite limits of planet of a circular economy. The results of this study set the basis for the extension of current standards required to apply the circular economy precepts.

Full textAbstract:
The article deals with the economic and legal aspects of regulating the tourism industry. It is established that a strategy of profitable and effective activities should be carried out at the level of the travel agency, while the policy, which would include methods of planning and coordination of the entire travel industry, should be performed at the level of the individual region. It is proved that the regional community should be involved in tourism development. The authors reveal that the specificity of tourist services is related to the features of tourist demand, which is not uniform because of the impalpability and nonpreservation of the tourist product. This makes it difficult for managers of a travel company to convince each consumer about the feasibility of purchasing a travel service. It is determined that despite the tourism industry is regulated legally, however, its constituent sources often come into conflict with each other, creating legal conflicts, whose solution is unfairly ignored by the legislative bodies.

Experiences from enterprise-wide integration initiatives during more than four decades indicate that industry-wide information integration could render substantial benefits. Two ways in which industry-wide integration differs from enterprise-wide integration are that there is no common management level and the economic units in the integration are the constituent units, not the industry. Management involvement has been emphasized as perhaps the most critical success factor for enterprise-wide information integration. The common economic unit enables increased costs in one part of the organization to lower the total cost in the company as a whole. In this article the authors address which consequence these two differences have for the development of information integration in four industry-wide supply chains. The authors find the existing methods for enterprise-wide information integration, such as BPR, virtually impossible to apply on industrywide information integration and that the disjoint economic responsibility is a hampering aspect in reaching potential benefits of industry-wide information integration.

An increasing importance is given to the Economic Feasibility Study of Petroleum Projects. The reason behind that is the critical role played by the Petroleum Industry in Society, Economy and Foreign Trade. In general, Petroleum Industry is involved with the Exploitation of Oil and Gas Resources to satisfy the country's needs (households and industrial sectors) and to export these resources, in order to, gain foreign currencies which are necessary for
funding the country's social and economic requirements. Petroleum Projects have diversity features in terms of location, size, capital, technology and risks. On the Other hand, because of the importance of the Petroleum Industry, high significance should be given to the Economic Feasibility Study, especially the necessary of good knowledge of the nature of Petroleum Activities, Projects and Contracts, as well as the fundamentals of Advanced Feasibility Study.

Full textAbstract:
Per capita apple consumption is falling in many European countries while overall fruit intake is growing or is stable, and consumption of other fruits is increasing. The reasons for the consumption decline of the world’s third most produced fruit are unclear. Based on an extensive literature review and a logit regression of data from a postal survey of 153 apple consumers in South Tyrol, Italy, the purpose of this study is to explain this trend. We show that (i) the increasing average age of consumers, (ii) economic factors such as consumer incomes and apple prices in combination with other demographic characteristics at least for some population segments, (iii) the dissatisfaction of some consumers with available mainstream apple varieties, and (iv) the below-average nutrient content of apples as compared to other fruits for health-conscious consumers are among the main causes. For the European apple growing industry, the decline in local per capita apple consumption may not be an economic problem if the industry decides to focus on emerging markets in the future. However, innovating fruit quality and better satisfying apple consumer preferences in high-income markets may prove to be more challenging.
