Item type:Publication, The structure of rural households’ income in North Macedonia - A case study in Polog and Pelagonija(University of Banja Luka, Faculty of Agriculture, 2023-09-29); ; Popovska Stojanov, DespinaContemporary trends in rural economic development go beyond the concept that agriculture and food production are the only functions of the rural economy and move towards a broader concept that covers all resources in the rural area, including non-agricultural activities. This paper examines rural households’ economic diversification focusing on their income structure and its impact on their well-being. The paper is based on а questionnaire survey conducted in the year 2018, through direct visits and interviews of 140 rural households from two statistical regions in North Macedonia, Pelagonija and Polog, with carefully designed study’s sample selection methodology to capture the household characteristics. The household income structure is measured as net incomes from all on-farm and off-farm activities and other financial transfers for one calendar year. The analysis has shown that the households which have only one type of income source (I. households with on-farm incomes only from agricultural activities, II. households with on-farm incomes only from non-agricultural activities) have much lower financial success than ones with mixed income sources, while non-agricultural rural households achieve the least success. In addition, households with mixed income sources, including incomes from agriculture, have better financial results than other households with mixed income sources, which do not comprise agricultural incomes. Hence, the challenge for policymakers is to identify the best mechanism to promote rural households’ economic portfolio, with a well-balanced synergy between agricultural and non-agricultural activities, based on agriculture at the centre of rural development, as complementary engines to tackle rural poverty and provide food security. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, The weed and weedy rice impact on direct seeded rice production in North Macedonia(Agricultural Academy of Bulgaria (Земјоделска Академија на Бугарија), 2022); ; ; Atanasovska, KaterinaA study from 2017 to 2019 in 10 vilages in the rice producing region of North Macedonia was undertaken to estimate the effect of weed flora on some productive rice properties. The common production technology was implemented. Rice was direct seeded in wet conditons. The weed managent included water bed regulation in combination with herbicide application. The following properties were investigated in three replications: density and infestation of the total weeds, weedy rice and other weed species, crop density, biological, straw and paddy rice yield, harvest index and head rice yield. The results were pooled in 5 groups depending on the weed infestation level. A correlation analysis revaled significant negative effect of the total weeds and the weedy rice component on the crop density, biological yield, harvest index and paddy rice yield. The weeds controled with herbicides were not significanlty correlated and affected the productive properties indirectly as a contributing factor in the total weed density. Low infestation (0.01% to 1.00%) caused drop in paddy rice yield of 6.73%. The most severe cases of weed infestation (15.01% to 25.00%) averaged 100.08 weed tillers/m2 and caused paddy yield drop of 35.30%. These field parcels were located in a region with extensive monoculture, where weedy rice populations constituted 90.68% of the total weed flora, or 90.75 panicles/m2 against 9.33 tillers/m2 from other weed species. Some weedy rice morphotypes were easily distinguished against cultivated rice in field conditions as early as anthesis, while others were more difficult to recognize. This study confirms weedy rice as a serious threat for the direct seeded rice production in the region, and addresses the need to investigate its biology and the most suitable management practices. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Effect of Orgalife Fertilizer on Some Quality Properties of the Seed and Growth Potential of Two Rice Varieties (Oryza sativa L.) Cultivated in North Macedonia(Trakya University, Edirne, Turkey, 2021-09); ; The aim of this study was to examine the effect of Orgalife (liquid organic microbial fertilizer based on manure from californian earthworms) on the seeds of two rice varieties, San Andrea and Opale, obtained from three production years: 2018, 2019 and 2020. They were treated with three different concentrations (3.3%, 6.7% and 9.9%) compared to control (distilled water). Germination energy, total seed germination, germination index, seedlings growth (root length, shoot length, dry seedling weight) and vigor index (I and II) were examined. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was carried out and separation of means was performed using the LSD test at P=0.05 and P=0.01 significance level. The values of all treatments for all parameters were compared with the control. Germination energy and total germination for Opale in 2020 showed statistical significance for the 3.3% concentration at P=0.05, while for San Andrea the same significance was noticed only for the germination energy. Germination index for Opale gave statistically significant results only for the 2020 production year at P=0.05. For San Andrea the situation is slightly different where the treatments affected the germination index only for 2018 and 2020. Orgalife treatments increased the vigor index I and II in 2020 for both varieties and for both levels of significance. The length of the seedlings for Opale in 2020 was positively affected by the 3.3% concentration in both levels of significance, while San Andrea in the same year had statistical significance for the 9.9% concentration only for P=0.05. The results for the dry matter showed statistical significance for San Andrea for the 6.7% concentration in 2018. As an overall conclusion, we can say that the use of the Orgalife fertilizer showed to be reasonable for the seedling growth and development, better than the effect on the germination parameters. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
