Seasonal numerical abundance and determination of size distribution of Bagrus docmac from Lake Akata, Benue State, Nigeria

Seasonal numerical abundance and determination of size distribution of Bagrus docmac in Lake Akata was conducted between April 2018  and May 2019. The result revealed that Bagrus docmac was numerous in February (17.9%) and also well represented November (14.7%) and in December (14.4%) but had low  percentage abundance in June (9.7%) and July (7.3%). The monthly mean sizes of Bagrus docmac showed that the highest monthly mean standard length (31.00cm) and mean weight (475.0g) were obtained in the month of October, while the least  standard length 21.45± 2.91cm and weight 297.2±66.8g were recorded in August. It could be concluded that Bagrus docmac had a seasonal trend in abundance, also their variation in the monthly mean standard lengths was not significant (p>0.05) in males and females

CONSIDERATIONS ON SOCIAL MARKETING IN ROMANIA

Social marketing, a concept that has only recently reached its maturity, it’s starting to win ground in Romania as well, although it is many times used clumsily or confused with other concepts that are similar either from a phonetically point of view, either from the point of view of the ways of implementation. Therefore, the purpose of this article is to present briefly, from a theoretical point of view, this concept, to present the elements that distinguish it from the other branches of marketing and to present examples of good practice in its implementation abroad in order to be able to finally point out the concept of social marketing in Romania.social marketing, social media marketing, consumer behaviour, social campaigns

The Economic and Social Value of Science and Technology Parks. The Case of Tecnocampus

This article aims to measure both the economic and social value of Tecnocampus, a Science and Technology Park in its region of influence (Mataró city in the Maresme region of Catalonia, Spain). Our results show that the impact of Tecnocampus has a socioeconomic cost–benefit ratio of 2.39. Measuring the impact of this multifaceted centre requires a diverse approach. Although the methods used are not new, the combination of them presents a novel approach to measure the impact of an institution of this nature. We have measured the economic value with the Input–Output model, including the Social Accounting Matrix. On the other hand, for social value calculations, we have used cost–benefit analysis adding measurements of firm localisation to estimate externality effects. Our main results present an economic value of more than 0.054% of the Catalan GDP, whereas the employment impact represents almost 0.37% of total employment in the region. The total economic multiplier of Tecnocampus activity is estimated to be 1.89. Social value generates an additional 0.50 euros to the multiplier according with our analysis. This additional social value represents an increase of productivity estimated in 20 million euros of operational income for Catalan firms and the creation of seven additional firms in the Maresme region as a result of knowledge spillovers. The social value also includes reduction of over-education caused by a better matching between graduates and enterprises, a more direct application of research, and an increase in consumer surplus. Finally, we discuss the policy implications of our findings to promote investments in this kind of infrastructures

Proceedings...

The integration of national and international researchers is extremely important for the dissemination and perpetuation of knowledge in several areas of scientific research. The "Ist workshop on omics strategies applied to livestock science" aimed to promote discussion and experience exchange on innovative subjects and methods in livestock, addressing issues such as omics technologies for system biology, animal breeding, and genomic data integration for complex traits like meat quality and feed efficiency. This event was organized by the partnership between the College of Agriculture "Luiz de Queiroz" (ESALQ/USP) and the Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation (EMBRAPA) Southeast Livestock Center, coordinated by Prof. Dr. Luiz Lehmann Coutinho, Dr. Luciana C. A. Regitano, Prof. Dr. Gerson Barreto Mourão and Dr. Adhemar Zerlotini Neto. The event took place in the city of Piracicaba/SP on April 24th - 26th, 2017. To attend these goals national and international speakers from partner institutions recognized in their areas of activity were invited, which enabled fruitful discussions on these themes, prompting new ideas for future research.bitstream/item/170582/1/Documentos125.pdfEditores: Luiz Lehmann Coutinho, ESALQ/USP; Luciana Correia de Almeida Regitano, Embrapa Pecuária Sudeste; Gerson Barreto Mourão, ESALQ/USP; Aline Silva Mello Cesar, ESALQ/USP; Bárbara Silva Vignato, FZEA/USP; Mirele Daiana Poleti, ESALQ/USP; Wellison Jarles da Silva Diniz, UFSCar
