Orientador: Aloísio Costa Sampaio / Banca: Sarita Leonel / Banca: Terezinha de Fátima Fumes / Resumo: O maracujá 'Roxinho do Kênia' é uma fruta que pode transformar-se numa fonte de renda importante para o agricultor, devido ao elevado valor pago no mercado europeu pela fruta in natura. A nutrição mineral é essencial para elevar a produtividade e melhorar a qualidade dos frutos, sendo o nitrogênio e o potássio os nutrientes mais absorvidos pelo maracujazeiro. Considerando a falta de estudos sobre as quantidades de N, P, K na cultura do maracujazeiroroxo, o presente trabalho objetivou avaliar o desenvolvimento, produtividade e qualidade dos frutos do maracujazeiro 'Roxinho do Kênia' (Passiflora edulis var. edulis Sims), quanto a doses crescentes de NPK. O experimento foi implantado na Fazenda Experimental Lageado, pertencente à Faculdade de Ciências Agronômicas - UNESP, localizada no município de Botucatu, Estado de São Paulo. O delineamento estatístico foi em blocos ao acaso, empregando-se doses de NPK (20-05-20): 140, 200, 260, 320, 380 e 440 g/planta, com quatros repetições. As mudas foram plantadas no espaçamento de 2,50 x 2,50m, contendo quatro plantas por parcela. Os parâmetros avaliados foram: altura da planta com 30, 46, 63, 77 e 92 dias pós-plantio; diâmetro do tronco a 30 cm do solo com 30, 46, 63, 77, 92 e 107 dias pósplantio; produção; produtividade; classificação dos frutos por tipo com posterior contagem e pesagem; análise do teor de sólidos solúveis totais, acidez titulável e vitamina C. O aumento nas doses de NPK não influenciou no crescimento em altura e diâmetro do caule das plantas na maioria dos tempos avaliados, porém aos 92 e 107 dias, respectivamente, houve efeito significativo para as doses; a adubação com NPK não influenciou nos demais parâmetros avaliados / Abstract: The passion fruit 'Roxinho of Kênia' is a fruit that can become an important source of income for the farmer because of the high price paid in the European market for fresh fruit. The mineral nutrition is essential to raise productivity and improve fruit quality, with nitrogen and potassium nutrients most absorbed by passion. Considering the lack of studies on the amounts of N, P and K in the culture of the purple passion fruit, this study aimed to evaluate the development, productivity and quality of passion fruit "Roxinho of Kênia" (Passiflora edulis var. Edulis Sims), as to increasing levels of NPK. The experiment was established on the Experimental Farm Lageado belonging to the Faculty of Agronomic Sciences - UNESP, located in Botucatu, São Paulo. The statistical design was randomized blocks, using increasing doses of NPK (20-05-20) at doses of 140, 200, 260, 320, 380 and 440 g / plant, with four replications. Seedlings were planted at a spacing of 2.50 x 2.50 m, containing four plants per plot. The parameters evaluated were: plant height at 30, 46, 63, 77 and 92 days after planting, trunk diameter 30 cm of soil with 30, 46, 63, 77, 92 and 107 days after planting; production, productivity; classification fruit type with subsequent counting and weighing, analysis of Brix, acidity and vitamin C Increasing doses of NPK had no effect on growth in height and stem diameters of plants in most time periods studied, but at 92 and 107 days, respectively, there was a significant effect for the doses, the NPK fertilizer did not influence the other parameters were / Mestre

Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka människors upplevelse av att arbeta med sin passion. Vi vill även utforska vad det är som motiverar dessa personer till att lägga ned den tid och kraft som krävs för kunna arbeta med passionen. Vi har genomfört nio kvalitativa intervjuer med personer som antingen helt, eller till viss del, försörjer sig på sin passion. Respondenternas yrken är: Cellist, Författare, Vinimportör, Projektledare/Idrottschef, Hudterapeut, Fotograf, Musikproducent, Glaskonstnär och Musikalartist. Vi har gjort urval efter vår teoretiska referensram för att kunna svara på våra frågeställningar. Urvalet är på så sätt ett målstyrt urval men vi har även till viss del gjort ett fåtal bekvämlighetsurval. Bekvämlighetsurvalen gjordes till följd av covid-19. Som grund till vår uppsats har vi valt teorier om passion, motivation, självledarskap, work-life balance samt roll och identitet. Dessa används för att analysera den insamlade empirin från intervjuerna. Resultatet visar att oberoende på vilket yrke respondenterna har känner de alla samma glädje och tacksamhet över att kunna ha sin passion som yrke. Deras motivation kommer inifrån då glädjen över själva utövandet och önskan om att hela tiden utvecklas är det som dagligen driver dem till att fortsätta. Studien visar även att det finns utmaningar med dessa yrken. En av dessa är att respondenterna kan känna en så stark dragningskraft till deras passion att de andra delarna i livet hamnar i konflikt med passionen.

Attrition of secondary agricultural education professionals is a major concern to the educational system in the United States. A number of studies have documented that attrition is a very serious problem, especially for beginning teachers during his or her first years on the job. As the need for teachers continues to grow, it becomes progressively more difficult for school administration to recruit, identify, and hire highly qualified secondary agricultural education teachers. The purpose of this study was to examine the attrition risk factors among secondary agricultural education teachers in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee and the region as a whole. Specifically, this study was designed to identify and describe secondary agricultural educators who are at-risk for leaving the profession based on the four constructs; alternative career opportunities, expectations versus realities, people frustrations and passions for the profession. In addition, the numbers of years of service and gender differences were examined. A stratified random sample (n = 583) of the population (N = 2,667) received the email questionnaire (33.6% response, n = 196). Participants were described as males (62%) having a minimum of a traditional four-year degree (73%) and an average of 13 years of teaching experience. The majority of secondary agricultural education teachers in the study possessed high levels of attrition risk as related to expectations versus realities, followed by moderate risks of alternative career opportunities and people frustrations. However, teachers in the study indicated a very low risk for attrition when analyzing passions for the profession. Participants indicated the state of residence had no significant implication on the overall risk of attrition, alternative career opportunities, expectations versus realities, or passions for the profession. Statistically significant results were on the construct, people frustrations, between Georgia and Mississippi and Georgia and Tennessee. Overall, the region was assessed as a moderate risk of attrition (M = 2.76). No significant relationships were found between sex and attrition risk, or number of years in the profession and attrition risk.

Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / The impact of new technology on the current presidential campaign has prevailed. A small but fundamental change quietly took place in the candidate’s website—Barack Obama’s official campaign blog. The campaign is now operating two sub-blogs at the same time, the Obamablog (also known as the Obama HQ blog) and the Community Blog. The former becomes a must-have tool in a political campaigner’s strategy, whereas the latter, which allows visitors to actually write, publish, and manage posts, is novel. This new function seems an audacious step up from the rest of the blogs of this kind since the 2004 presidential election because it gives citizen users freedom to express their own ideas that could put the campaign on an impromptu situation to respond.
