The novelty of this study lies in its detailed examination of the relationship between manufacturing complexity, manufacturing strategies, and manufacturing performance, particularly in developing countries. The results are expected to fill the existing research gaps.The health-related Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Coronavirus Pandemic (COVID-19) have recently increased awareness of the need for countries to increase fiscal space for health. Prior to these, many Low and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs) had embraced the concept of Universal Health Coverage (UHC) and have either commenced or are in the process of implementing various models of health insurance in order to provide financial access to health care to their populations. While evidence of a relationship between experimentation with UHC and increased access to and utilisation of health care in LMICs is common, there is inadequate research evidence on the specific health financing model that is most appropriate for pursuing the objectives of UHC in these settings. Drawing on a synthesis of empirical and theoretical discourses on the feasibility of UHC in LMICs, this paper argues that the journey towards UHC is not a 'one size fits all' process, but a long-term policy engagement that requires adaptation to the specific socio-cultural and political economy contexts of implementing countries. The study draws on the WHO's framework for tracking progress towards UHC using the implementation of a mildly progressive pluralistic health financing model in Ghana and advocates a comprehensive discourse on the potential for LMICs to build resilient and responsive health systems to facilitate a gradual transition towards UHC.The difficulty in studying the relationship between stress and emotional regulation is due to the need to contemplate a dynamic perspective that analyzes the moderating role of stress. In fact, stress involves different phases or stages, and the neurocognitive processes involved in emotion regulation differ significantly between these phases. The period of anticipation of stressful events can be fundamental to understand the process of stress regulation; however, surprisingly few works have analyzed the differential activation of brain networks involved in cognitive regulation during the phases of stress and recovery. Taking this into consideration, within this study we propose to analyze in an integrated way the psychological and neurobiological processes during the phase of stress and recovery, with the aim of improving our understanding of the mechanisms that underlie successful and unsuccessful stress regulation. We consider that from the present review we contribute to achieve a better understanding of the mechanisms underlying successful and unsuccessful stress regulation would contribute to the improvement of prevention and treatment interventions for mental disorders.Wheat crop contributes to a major portion of the agriculture economy of Nepal. It is ranked as the third major cereal crop of the country even though, it faces terminal heat stress which speeds up the grain filling rate and shortens the filling period, causing reduction in grain weight, size, number and quality losses. We can minimize this loss through a genotypic selection of high-yielding lines by understanding the genotype-environment interaction. The objective of this research is to obtain a high yielding line with a stable performance across the environments. In order to do so, we conducted an experiment using eighteen elite wheat lines and two check varieties in alpha-lattice design with two replications in different environments viz. irrigated and terminal heat stress environment from November 2019 to April 2020. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/pf-06650833.html The analysis of variance revealed that genotype, environment and their interaction had a highly significant effect on the yield. Furthermore, the which-won-where model indicated specific adaptation of elite lines NL 1179, NL 1420, BL 4407, NL 1368 to the irrigated environment and Bhirkuti to the terminal heat-stressed environment. Similarly, the mean-versus-stability study indicated that elite lines BL 4407, NL 1368, BL 4919, NL 1350, and NL 1420 had above-average yield and higher stability whereas elite lines Gautam, NL 1412, NL 1376, NL 1387, NL 1404, and NL 1381 had below-average yield and lower stability. The ranking of elite lines biplot, PC1 explaining 73.6% and PC2 explaining 26.4% of the interaction effect, showed the rank of elite line, NL 1420 > NL 1368> NL 1350 > other lines, close to the ideal line. On the basis of the obtained results, we recommend NL 1420 with both the high yield and stability is suited across both the environments, while NL 1179 and Bhirkuti is adapted specifically for irrigated and terminal heat stress environment, respectively.This paper examines impacts of adoption of wheat chickpea double cropping on yield and farm income of smallholder rural farmers in Becho district, South West Shewa Zone, Oromia Region, Ethiopia. The study used cross-sectional data collected from 203 smallholder farm households selected randomly through two-stage stratified random sampling technique. Propensity score matching was employed to analyze the impacts of adoption on yield and farm income. The result showed that adoption of wheat-chickpea double cropping has significant impact on yield and farm income of the group of adopter households compared to the group of non-adopters. With regard to yield, adopters harvested average wheat yield of 2120 kg/ha, while the non-adopters harvested average wheat yield of 1420 kg/ha. In addition, the treated households earned average annual farm income of about 709.125 Euro per year from **** of both wheat and chickpea as adopters; while the non-adopters earned average farm income of 129 Euro from **** of wheat. These results imply that scaling out of wheat-chickpea double cropping contributes to food security and rural livelihood improvement through yield and farm income increment. Hence, encouraging farmers towards adoption of wheat-chickpea double cropping is essential for improving livelihoods of rural households by properly addressing factors such as access to improved seeds, training on double cropping, involvement in non-farm income activities, access to broad bed maker (BBM), ownership of tropical livestock unit (TLU) and access to fertilizer.
