The river is one part that cannot be separated from our daily lives. The river in Katingan Regency is used by the community for various activities, including transportation, MCK (bathing, washing, toilet), and their daily economic activities. However, the reality in the field shows that the water quality in the Rasau River is not suitable for use by the people, the turbid water makes them have to think twice to use it. The purpose of this study was to explain and describe Community Supervision in Maintaining the Conservation of Sungai Rasau Ecosystem in Petak Bahandang Village, Tasik Payawan District, Katingan District, Central Kalimantan Province. This research uses qualitative research methods, which are intended to develop concepts, gather facts that are supported and supported by real data. Sources of data in this study are the employees of the Petak Bahandang Village, the Petak Bahandang Village community, and documents relating to Community Monitoring in Maintaining the Conservation of Sungai Rasau Ecosystem in Petak Bahandang Village, Tasik Payawan District, Katingan District, Central Kalimantan. Data collection techniques are observation, documentation and in-depth interviews. From the results of the study that Community Monitoring in Maintaining the Conservation of Sungai Rasau Ecosystem in Petak Bahandang Village, Tasik Payawan Subdistrict, Katingan District, Central Kalimantan Province is still low due to several factors, work, education, and leadership. Especially in planning, supervision, and maintenance, the community still lacks participation in it.

Kabupaten Barito Kuala adalah salah satu pemerintah kabupaten yang berbatasan dengan provinsi Kalimantan Tengah dan Kalimantan Selatan, Indonesia. Dalam musim hujan pada waktu pasang air Sungai Kapuas, Sungai Barito dan air kiriman dari Kabupaten Banjar yang berbatasan langsung dengan Kecamatan Mandastana dapat membanjiri sebagian besar wilayah ini dan mengakibatkan permukaan tanah tergenang terus menerus. Masalah yang dialami oleh persawahaan di Kecamatan Mandastana adalah masalah yang mempengaruhi tata kelola air terkait saluran irigasi yang ada di pertanian itu sendiri mengalami pasang surut air, yang bergerak naik turun yang disebabkan oleh pasang air pada Sungai Barito dan Sungai Kapuas, dimana pada saat pasang area persawahan mengalami kelebihan air. Metode perhitungan yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode mock untuk perhitungan debit andalan dan neraca air dan metode penman dan standar KP-01 untuk perhitungan kebutuhan air. Berdasarkan analisis neraca air (ketersediaan air dari curah hujan dikurang kebutuhan air disawah kondisi eksisting) didapat hasil 3,017 m3/detik, sehingga pada petak sawah terjadi kelebihan air, jadi apabila ingin dilakukan perluasan lahan persawahan ketersediaan air masih mencukupi untuk mengairi air di sawah.
Abstract
Barito Kuala Regency is one of the district governments that borders the provinces of Central Kalimantan and South Kalimantan, Indonesia. During the rainy season at the time of the tide of the Kapuas River, the Barito River and consignment water from Banjar Regency, which is directly adjacent to Mandastana District, can overwhelm most of this area and result in continuous inundation of the land surface. The problem experienced by the field in Mandastana Subdistrict is a problem that affects water management related to irrigation channels in agriculture itself which experiences tidal water, which moves up and down caused by tides on the Barito River and Kapuas River, where at the time of tide the area rice fields experience excess water. The calculation method used in this study is the mock method for calculating the mainstay discharge and water balance and penman method and the KP-01 standard for calculating water requirements. Based on the analysis of water balance (availability of water from rainfall minus water requirements under existing conditions) obtained results of 3.017 m3 / sec, so that the paddy fields occur excess water, so if you want to expand rice fields the availability of water is still sufficient to irrigate water in the fields.

ABSTRACT A 3-year comprehensive analysis of aflatoxin contamination in peanut butter was conducted in Zambia, sub-Saharan Africa. The study analyzed 954 containers of 24 local and imported peanut butter brands collected from shops in Chipata, Mambwe, Petauke, Katete, and Nyimba districts and also in Lusaka from 2012 to 2014. For analysis, a sample included six containers of a single brand, from the same processing batch number and the same shop. Each container was quantitatively analyzed for aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) in six replicates by using competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay; thus, aflatoxin contamination level of a given sample was derived from an average of 36 test values. Results showed that 73% of the brands tested in 2012 were contaminated with AFB1 levels >20 μg/kg and ranged up to 130 μg/kg. In 2013, 80% of the brands were contaminated with AFB1 levels >20 μg/kg and ranged up to 10,740 μg/kg. Compared with brand data from 2012 and 2013, fewer brands in 2014, i.e., 53%, had aflatoxin B1 levels >20 μg/kg and ranged up to 1,000 μg/kg. Of the eight brands tested repeatedly across the 3-year period, none consistently averaged ≤20 μg/kg. Our survey clearly demonstrates the regular occurrence of high levels of AF B1 in peanut butter in Zambia. Considering that some of the brands tested originated from neighboring countries such as Malawi, Zimbabwe, and South Africa, the current findings provide a sub-Saharan regional perspective regarding the safety of peanut butter.

Full textAbstract:
ABSTRACT It is not known which aflatoxigenic species are present in Zambia. Therefore, soil samples were collected during May to June 2012, at the end of the growing season in Eastern Province, from 399 farmers' fields that had been planted to groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) in Nyimba, Petauke, Mambwe, and Chipata Districts. Population densities of Aspergillus spp. were estimated by plating 10−3 soil dilutions on modified dichloran rose Bengal (MDRB) media. To test for toxigenicity, colonies were randomly selected from MDRB dilution plates, single-spored, transferred to vials with yeast extract sucrose (YES) liquid media, and grown for a week at room temperature. Agra Strip ® lateral flow cards were then used to test the filtered extracts, from the YES cultures, for total aflatoxin at 4 and 20 parts per billion (ppb). We identified Aspergillus flavus (small and large sclerotia strains), A. parasiticus, A. niger, A. nomius, A. oryzae, A. tamarii, and A. terreus. 100% of the S-strain A. flavus isolates produced aflatoxin at 4 and 20 ppb, whereas 86% and 56% of the L-strain A. flavus isolates produced aflatoxins at 4 and 20 ppb, respectively. All the A. nomius isolates produced aflatoxins at 4 and 20 ppb. 79% and 64% the A. parasiticus isolates produced aflatoxins at 4 and 20 ppb. To our knowledge, this is the first peer reviewed report from Zambia documenting the population densities of A. flavus across different agroecologies. In addition, it is also the first report on the identification of different Aspergillus spp., such as A. nomius, A. terreus, A. oryzae, and A. tamarii from Zambia. This information, taken together with cropping practices, soil characteristics, agroecological and climatic data, can form a basis for developing holistic pre-harvest aflatoxin mitigation strategies.

Full textAbstract:
Primarily through a case study of the Petauke District this thesis examines the perceptions of local men and women as a basis for examining the significance of the social construction of masculinity for the transmission of HIV/AIDS in heterosexual marriages in rural Zambia. Further, it explores participants' perceptions regarding two possibly key dimensions to the transmission of HIV/AIDS in heterosexual marital relationships in rural Zambia. These are the interconnections between masculinity and gender based violence as a factor in the risk of infection, and male attitudes to the use or neglect of condoms as a measure of protection against the risk of HIV/AIDS transmission. This case study is set primarily in a postmodern social constructionist theoretical context. This provides a sensitive means of registering the variety of concepts, perceptions, interpersonal interactions and broader social conditions which feed into masculinity as a social construction. It also facilitates a fine-grained analysis of how notions of masculinity are both context-specific and shift across time. While largely focusing on the illustrative significance of stakeholders' accounts in Petauke District, the study also provides an account of wider socio-economic conditions and the spread of HIV/AIDS, as a backdrop, and a critique of salient features of current health promotion responses. The case study uses qualitative methods, involving the use of individual interviews and focus group discussions with a sample of thirty men and thirty women, respectively, who were previously or are currently married. A thematic approach is used to analyse the data collected in the field. The study findings reveal that study participants perceive Petauke district to be undergoing a process of social transformation and it is thus on a 'cultural crossroads'. This is as a result of the growing influence of the media, education, intermarriages and social mobility. This has given birth to new social values which all have an influence on the social construction of masculinity. Challenging traditional and contemporary hegemonic modes of masculinity is perceived as one of the main tools that should be used to address the association between the social construction of masculinity and the risk of HIV/AIDS transmission in heterosexual marital relationships. This includes addressing the intersection between domestic violence and the risk of HIV/AIDS infection and promoting the use of condoms against the risk of infection in marital relationships. The study concludes by drawing out the implications for health promotion policy and practice. It discusses the need for health promotion to work with male and female stakeholders, and undertake programmes that have as a key strategy the deconstruction of harmful beliefs and ideologies associated with masculinity, in order to address male HIV/AIDS risk taking behaviour in marital relationships in rural Zambian communities.

The study sought to analyse teachers' level of knowledge, attitude and preventive practices in relation to HIV/AIDS in Petauke district in the eastern province of Zambia. The study sought to determine whether teachers were well informed about HIV/AIDS, had no discriminative behaviours towards HIV/AIDS-affected people, and finally whether their preventive practices were good in relation to HIV/AIDS.
The major inferences drawn from this study are that teachers are well informed about HIV/AIDS and that their attitudes are mostly non-discriminative. Preventive practices were found to be good but contradictory to the reality on the ground.Health Studies
