Direct Application of Coffee Pulp Vermicompost Produced from Epigeic Earthworms and Its Residual Effect on Vegetative and Reproductive Growth of Hot Pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) by Yohannes Zergaw, Temesgen Kebede, Dargie Tsegay Berhe

“…The results recorded in the direct application of 15 t/ha CEV were profoundly higher (P < 0.05), followed by the combined effects of both worms with an application rate of 15 t/ha. Generally, the three-way interaction effect of a media type, the application effect, and the application rate interaction effect were highly significant (P < 0.05) for the number of leaves per plant, the number of fruits per plant, and yield per hectare. …”

Corn tolerance to florpyrauxifen-benzyl rates and its mixture with atrazine and mesotrione by Amar S. Godar, Jason K. Norsworthy, L. Tom Barber

“…The levels of early injury were largely sustained at 7 WAA, with a few instances of recovery, particularly with a mixture of florpyrauxifen-benzyl at 7.5 g ae ha-1 with the full rate of atrazine. Corn yield loss generally surpassed the respective injury levels. The yield loss was overall the least in 2020 (8 to 46%) and most severe in 2021 (26 to 93%), largely depending on florpyrauxifen-benzyl rates. …”

Methodological reference-points of training to innovative engineering activity of automobile transport profile by Galina V. Bukalova

“…The information-accumulative model of the educational process, traditional for the Russian engineering school, loses its relevance in the context of the orientation toward preparation for innovative activity.The pedagogical potential of projective and problem-based learning, technology of contextual learning is most consistent with the productive implementation of an innovative-oriented educational process.The generalized structural composition of the innovation process serves as an information basis for determining the structural composition of the aggregate of the projected educational goals (competences of the graduate of the university), which ensure the orientation of the educational process for preparing students for core industrial innovation activity.…”
