Abstract:
Vegetables are one of the most important food sources in supporting a healthy body. The alternative to buy vegetabes is in agrotourism. Barro Tani Manunggal Agrotourism is one of tourism places that provides or sells vegetable commodities. In maintaining agrotourism, it is necessary to know consumer preferences for vegetable products. This study aimed to determine the characteristics of vegetable consumers and the influence factors of consumer preferences for vegetable purchasing decisions at Barro Tani Manunggal Agrotourism. The sampling technique used purposive sampling method. The number of respondents was 56 respondents with the criteria of more than one time bought vegetables in Barro Tani Manunggal Agrotourism. The data analysis methods are t-test, F-test, and coefficient determination. The results show that the average respondent who shopped for vegetable is in aged 15-64 years, most of whom have high schoo or equivalent education. Most of the respondents are entrepreneurs, and the average income of respondents in this study is IDR 2.000.001-3.000.000. The variables of service speed and product availability have a positive and significant effect on purchasing decisions for vegetables in Barro Tani Manunggal Agrotourism. The freshness variable has a negative and significant effect. While the variables of pricing, product quality, location, and convenience do not have a significant effect on vegetable purchasing decisions.

Abstract:
Lalapan is a fresh vegetable usually eat up with rice and other Indonesian dishes. However, fresh vegetables can potentially be contaminated with pathogenic bacteria, such as Enterobacteriaceae, harming consumers if not appropriately processed and cleaned. This study analyzes the correlation between food hygiene and sanitation in food vendors of Lalapan with Enterobacteriaceae contamination in fresh vegetables. It used an analytic observational design with a cross-sectional approach. In addition, the population was food vendors of lalapan in the Sumbersari District, Jember Regency. There were 30 respondents with a consecutive sampling method. Food hygiene and sanitation instrument was an observation sheet according to 16 points stipulated in the Regulation of the Minister of Health of the Republic of Indonesia number 1096/MENKES/PER/VI of 2011. In addition, we tested fresh vegetable samples to analyze Enterobacteriaceae contamination with a microbiological test using Salmonella Chromogenic Agar (SCA) media. Then, data analysis used Fisher's exact test with α=0.05. The observation showed that most respondents had good food sanitation hygiene (76.7%). The microbiological examination indicated 23 vegetable samples (76.7%) were contaminated with Enterobacteriaceae. Statistical analysis using Fisher's exact test Exact obtained p=1.000 (p>0.05). Thus, there was no significant correlation between food hygiene and sanitation in food vendors of lalapan with Enterobacteriaceae contamination in fresh vegetables. In conclusion, hygiene, and sanitation food among food vendors of lalapan do not correlate with Enterobacteriaceae contamination in fresh vegetables. Further research could analyze the vegetable's planting, harvesting, and distribution processes as risk factors for Enterobacteriaceae contamination in fresh vegetables.

Abstract:
Nursery schools can play an important role in children developing healthy eating behaviours, including vegetable consumption. However, the effect of school-level vegetable promotion on vegetable consumption and body mass index (BMI) remains unclear. This study examined the associations of nursery school-level promotion of eating vegetables first at meals with Japanese children’s vegetable consumption behaviours and BMI. We used cross-sectional data collected in 2015, 2016, and 2017 on 7402 children in classes of 3–5-year-olds in all 133 licensed nursery schools in Adachi, Tokyo, Japan. Caregivers were surveyed on their children’s eating behaviours (frequency of eating vegetables, willingness to eat vegetables and number of kinds of vegetables eaten), height and weight. Nursery school-level promotion of eating vegetables first at meals was assessed using individual responses, with the percentage of caregivers reporting that their children ate vegetables first at meals as a proxy for the school-level penetration of the promotion of vegetable eating. Multilevel analyses were conducted to investigate the associations of school-level vegetable-eating promotion with vegetable consumption behaviours and BMI. Children in schools that were 1 interquartile range higher on vegetable promotion ate vegetable dishes more often (β = 0.04; 95% CI: 0.004–0.07), and were more often willing to eat vegetables (adjusted odds ratio = 1.17; 95% CI: 1.07–1.28), as well as to eat more kinds of vegetables (adjusted odds ratio = 1.19 times; 95% CI: 1.06–1.34). School-level vegetable-eating promotion was not associated with BMI. The school-level health strategy of eating vegetables first may be effective in increasing children’s vegetable intake but not in preventing being overweight.

Abstract:
Child vegetable intake falls far below the minimum recommended levels. Knowing which vegetables children may like help those responsible for providing vegetables to children to improve intake. The objective of this study was to measure vegetable liking for a wide variety of vegetables by a racially and ethnically diverse population of 9–12-year old children from low-income families. Children rated their liking of 35 vegetables using a 10-point hedonic scale. We tabulated the number of children that found each vegetable acceptable (ratings of ‘okay’ or above) and the number that found each vegetable unacceptable (ratings below ‘okay’). More than 50% of children who had tried a vegetable considered it acceptable. A large majority of the vegetables had mean ratings in the acceptable range. Corn was the most liked vegetable, closely followed by potatoes, lettuce, and carrots. Artichoke had the lowest mean liking, followed by onion and beets. We found children liked a wide variety of vegetables which offers counter evidence to the commonly held perception that children do not like vegetables.

Abstract:
This work focuses on the problem of non-contact measurement for vegetables in agricultural automation. The application of computer vision in assisted agricultural production significantly improves work efficiency due to the rapid development of information technology and artificial intelligence. Based on object detection and stereo cameras, this paper proposes an intelligent method for vegetable recognition and size estimation. The method obtains colorful images and depth maps with a binocular stereo camera. Then detection networks classify four kinds of common vegetables (cucumber, eggplant, tomato and pepper) and locate six points for each object. Finally, the size of vegetables is calculated using the pixel position and depth of keypoints. Experimental results show that the proposed method can classify four kinds of common vegetables within 60 cm and accurately estimate their diameter and length. The work provides an innovative idea for solving the vegetable’s non-contact measurement problems and can promote the application of computer vision in agricultural automation.

Abstract:
Vegetable commodities have many varieties, short shelf life special purchase times, and other status quo, so the day not sold out of vegetables often can not be sold the next day. Therefore, it is important to accurately predict the demand for vegetable commodities in the coming period and the amount of demand for the replenishment and profitability of vegetable superstores. In this study, Spearman's correlation analysis was applied to investigate the relationship between the daily sales of six major vegetable categories: leafy vegetables, cauliflower vegetables, aquatic root vegetables, eggplant vegetables, pepper vegetables, and edible mushrooms, and the results showed that there was a significant positive correlation between aquatic roots and edible mushrooms which The results show that there is a significant positive correlation between aquatic root vegetables and edible mushrooms, which indicates that consumers who buy aquatic root vegetables tend to buy edible mushrooms as well and that vegetable superstores should take note of this potential relationship to better formulate replenishment strategies; and then the ARIMA model was applied to predict the demand for these six major vegetable categories in the coming week, and the average relative error of the test set was 24.93%, which is a good prediction effect.

Abstract:
Increasing agricultural production by using chemical fertilizers and pesticides continuously and exceeding the threshold for use will cause new problems for health and the surrounding environment. Organic vegetable farming has been started because people are becoming aware of the dangers of using chemical pesticides. This study aims to describe the characteristics of organic and inorganic vegetable farming, describe the marketing of organic and inorganic vegetables and analyze the comparison of organic and inorganic vegetable farming income on Ambon Island. The method used in sampling is the census method. The results showed that implementation of organic and inorganic vegetable farming in Telaga Kodok Hamlet and Waiheru Village there were differences in vegetable cultivation both in land preparation and processing, seeding, fertilization, and controlling plant pest organisms (OPT). Most farmers (80%) sell organic vegetables to distributors (modern retail markets) when compared to selling vegetables to consumers (20%). The reason farmers sell organic vegetables to distributors (modern retail markets) is they are partners. Farmers in Waiheru Village sell their inorganic vegetable products to retailers (73.32%) when compared to being sold to collectors (13.34 percent) and sold directly to consumers (13.34 percent). The income of organic vegetable farmers is higher (Rp. 2,338,580.29) when compared to the income of inorganic vegetable farmers (Rp. 1,292,187.84). This is due to the difference in the selling price of organic vegetables and inorganic vegetables, and the production costs incurred by organic vegetable farmers are smaller than those of inorganic vegetable farmers.

Abstract:
The impact of Covid-19 pandemic has made vegetable farmers suffer losses due to hampered distribution of fresh vegetables. Fresh vegetables that have been harvested but not immediately processed will easily wilt which will reduce the selling value. This phenomenon occurs in many vegetable plantation areas, one of which is in the Dusun Precet. Vegetable farming products are a source of livelihood for the people of Dusun Precet who mostly work as vegetable farmers. The main problem for vegetable farmers is that the price of vegetables is cheap at harvest time, so that farmers experience losses. Post-harvest vegetable processing and packaging training is one solution that can be done to overcome this problem. Processing and packaging of fresh vegetables is expected to make harvested vegetables last longer and local vegetables can be marketed more widely. In addition, team from UIN Maulana Malik Ibrahim Malang also provide socialization regarding the nutrient of frozen vegetables as still same as the fresh one if packaged properly and correctly. This program is expected to be able to encourage the economy of the people in Dusun Precet in the future.

Abstract:
The increasing awareness of healthy lifestyle among the public has made consumers more selective in choosing their food, particularly vegetables. Aquaponic vegetable products, which are free from pesticides, have emerged as an alternative for health-conscious consumers. This study aimed to identify the characteristics of consumers who purchase aquaponic vegetables based on product attributes at PT. Tanikota and to determine the ranking of attributes of aquaponic vegetables according to consumer preferences. The research method employed in this study was a case study, using a whole population of 70 aquaponic vegetable consumers at PT. Tanikota as the respondents. Data were analyzed using descriptive analysis of frequency distribution. The results of the study revealed that the characteristics of consumers who buy aquaponic vegetables at PT. Tanikota were generally women aged 26-35 years, holding an undergraduate degree, with 3 family dependents, employed in private sectors, and having an income range of 2,600,000-Rp 5,200,000/month. The attributes of aquaponic vegetables at PT. Tanikota were ranked based on consumer preferences, with the level of freshness of vegetables, variety of vegetables, color of vegetables, method of payment, method of purchase, physical form of vegetables, vegetable size, distance, vegetable packaging, and the price of vegetables, respectively. The lower rank of price attributes can be attributed to the lack of aquaponic vegetable cultivation in the city of Bandung, which makes it difficult for consumers to compare the prices offered by PT. Tanikota with those offered by other companies.

Abstract:
Field experiments were conducted with the objective of developing a general New Mexico chile type plant (Capsicum annuum L.) phenological model as a function of heat units accumulated after planting (HUAP). Field experiments were conducted from 2003 through 2005 in the Sulfur Springs Valley of Arizona, near Sunsites in Cochise County, Arizona (31° 56" N, 109° 52" W, about 4,000 feet elevation) on a Borderline fine sandy loam (coarse-loamy, mixed, superactive thermic Typic Calcigypsids) and in the Animas Valley, New Mexico (31° 57" N, 109° 48" W, about 4,400 feet elevation), on a Vekol fine sandy clay loam (fine, mixed, thermic, Typic Haplargids). Plant measurements were collected routinely and important phenological stages that corresponded to first bloom, early bloom, peak bloom, physiological maturity, and red harvest were identified and recorded. Results indicate that within locations, all varieties performed similarly in relation to HU accumulation patterns. A general New Mexico chile type plant phenological model as a function of HUAP for all sites and varieties was obtained. First bloom occurred at 954 ± 254 HUAP, early bloom at 1349 ± 306 HUAP, peak bloom at 1810 ± 261 HUAP, physiological maturity at 2393 ± 215 HUAP, and red chile harvest was identified to occur at 3159 ± 220 HUAP. The purpose of this phenological baseline or model is to provide a crop management tool for growers for predicting and identifying critical stages of growth. Further development and validation of this model is a continued objective of this research program.

Abstract:
Field experiments were conducted in 2007 to evaluate a cantaloupe (Cucumis melo L.) plant development model as a function of heat units accumulated after planting (HUAP). Field experiments were conducted in 2007 in the Yuma Valley, Arizona (32° 42' N, 114° 42' W), about 150 feet (~ 32 m) elevation in four commercial cantaloupe fields managed by a cooperator-grower using four varieties. Plant measurements were made on regular 14-day intervals and the following growth stages were identified in relation to plant measurement data collection: pre-bloom, early fruit set, early netting, and physiological maturity (harvest). The model was evaluated by comparing the observed HUAP versus the predicted HUAP values using a repeated measures design. Mean differences within each sampling stage were separated using the Fishers’ protected least significance difference (LSD) test at P≤ 0.01. In addition, regression models were performed for all in-season data collected and the accuracy of the model was evaluated on the basis of the R² values with a specified level significance (α = 0.01). No statistical differences were found between the observed phenological data and the predicted values from the model throughout the study period. Also, the model presented an overall accuracy of 54 ± 37 HUAP (2 ± 1 day) in predicting cantaloupe-harvesting time. It can be concluded that the model can be used as a useful tool to assist cantaloupe growers in predicting and identifying critical stages of growth for irrigated spring cantaloupe crops in Arizona and the desert Southwest.

Abstract:
Several studies were conducted in the spring and fall 2001 to evaluate a number of neonicotinoid compounds (Admire, Calypso, Actara, Platinum and dinotefuron) for whitefly control in spring and fall melons. The results of these studies demonstrate that several insecticide products are being developed that offer melon growers management alternatives for controlling whiteflies. The new foliar neonicotinoid Calypso (thiacloprid), shows excellent promise as a foliar, post-planting spray with 14-21 day residual. Further, no consistent negative interaction was detected between Platinum and fertilizer, 10-34-0 and UN 32, applied together as at-planting or side dress soil treatments. These treatments provided good whitefly control, but further research is needed to replicate these effects as Platinum has been labeled at lower rates than the manufacturer initially anticipated. At planting applications of Platinum at 8 oz (current labeled rate) did however provide acceptable residual control of whiteflies on fall melons under heavy population pressure.

Abstract:
Small plot studies were conducted from 1999-2001 to examine the population abundance and control of the lettuce aphid on winter and spring head lettuce crops. In each year, Seven, 0.25 acre planting of head lettuce were established beginning in Sep-Oct with final harvest occurring in April. Replicated plots within several planting were treated with an Admire treatment at planting, a side dress application of Platinum post-planting or allowed to remain untreated. Lettuce aphids were first detected in our experimental area in December in PD 3 in 2001, but in 2002 first occurred in lettuce almost 2 months later (Feb 21). Similarly, lettuce aphid abundance was much greater in 2001 than in 2002, probably a result of temperature difference. Temperature had an important influence upon lettuce aphid development based on our field observations. Population appeared to increase in early March when the average daily temperature was about 65 E F. We observed a sharp decline in population abundance in April where daytime highs exceeded 90E F. Insecticide treatments also influenced seasonal abundance. Under heavy aphid pressure in 2001, lettuce treated with Admire in the early planting dates appeared to prevent lettuce aphids from significantly infesting lettuce heads at harvest. However, lettuce aphids in the last 3 planting dates were able to colonize plants and infest a larger proportion of heads at levels not considered commercially acceptable. Under lighter pressure in 2002, lettuce aphids did not significantly colonize Admire treated lettuce. Green peach aphid, potato aphid and foxglove aphids were also present in both years, but seldom reached economic levels, and where completely controlled in plots treated with soil, systemic insecticides.

Abstract:
A field study was conducted in Yuma, Arizona during the late fall 2001 growing season to determine the optimum postemergence (POST) timing of glyphosate application on glyphosate- tolerant Lactuca sativa (head lettuce) for weed control. Head lettuce cv. Raider demonstrated excellent tolerance and no injury was observed on the crop after any glyphosate application at the 2, 4, 6, or 8 leaf stage of growth. A single application of glyphosate at 1.0 lb AI/A at the 4 or 6 leaf stage of lettuce growth was optimal for providing near complete control of Portulaca oleracea (common purslane), Chenopodium album (common lambsquarters), C. murale (nettleleaf goosefoot), Physalis wrightii (Wright’s groundcherry), volunteer cantaloupe (Cucumis melo), and Echinochloa colonum (junglerice). An early application at the 2 leaf stage resulted in few new weeds emerging after the application. A later application at the 8 leaf stage resulted in reduced yields of lettuce fresh weight due to weed competition. POST applications of glyphosate on lettuce offered superior weed control compared to soil-applied preemergence (PREE) herbicide treatments.

Abstract:
The effect of three different release rates (1x, 10x, and 20x the recommended rate of 10,000/acre) of Eretmocerus eremicus, a whitefly parasitoid, on sweet potato whitefly populations in cantaloupe were evaluated against populations in untreated control plots. Parasitoids were released from a point source in the center of each of nine treatment plots. All stages of whitefly development were monitored within a 10-m annulus surrounding each release point in all 12 plots, as were rates of parasitism. This occurred over a 52-d period from July 21 through September 11, 2001. The rates of sweet potato whitefly population increase during this time were equivalent and independent of the parasitoid release rate. Whitefly densities were not controlled in any of our treatment plots, nor in the controls. Moreover, rates of parasitism did not increase with time in any of the treatment plots and did not differ among the three release rates (22.0 ± 16.2%). Hence, Eretmocerus eremicus, by itself, is not efficient as a means to control whitefly populations in melon crops in the Southwest US. The ineffectiveness of E. eremicus to control whitefly populations in the field may be due to its propensity to dispersal at low host densities.

Abstract:
Studies were conducted in the field and laboratory to investigate how the addition of spray adjuvants to Success affected its insecticidal activity against leafminers, thrips and lepidopterous larvae. Studies were also designed to evaluate the knockdown and residual mortality of Success against worms when applied with a buffer to produce an acidic spray solution. Results indicated that Success applied without an adjuvant appeared to provide the most consistent adult mortality of Liriomyza leafminers. In contrast, the addition of a penetrating surfactant (crop oil concentrate) resulted in significantly greater larval mortality consistent with the leafminer feeding behavior. Efficacy of Success against lepidopterous larvae and western flower thrips was not improved using a spray surfactant. However, addition of buffering agents to Success spray solutions significantly affected efficacy against beet armyworm and cabbage looper. Lab bioassays and field studies showed that knockdown mortality was not affected, but residual efficacy was significantly reduced when Success was applied in an acidic (pH 4.2) spray environment.

Abstract:
Studies to examine lettuce aphid population growth on resistant head and butter lettuce cultivars were conducted in small filed plots at the Yuma Agricultural Center. By artificially infesting plants on several lettuce plantings during the spring, the influence of the resistant lettuce plants were evaluated for their capability of preventing lettuce aphid populations from colonizing plants. Results of five field trials showed that several varieties of head and butter lettuce have been developed that almost completely prevent lettuce aphids from surviving and reproducing on plants during the spring. Although the cultivars tested did not posses marketable characteristic for harvests, they do provide germplasm for breeding new varieties suited for desert production. In addition, these studies also support conclusions drawn from the past several seasons that suggest lettuce aphid population growth is greatest when ambient temperatures average between 65-70 °F.

Abstract:
Background: The consumption of indigenous vegetables among adults living in peri-urban South African areas have declined considerably mainly due to nutrition transition and the loss of indigenous knowledge. Elderly African women are the main holders of indigenous vegetable knowledge. African women living in peri-urban areas have been reported as consuming inadequate vegetable intake and are at a high risk for non-communicable diseases (NCD) such as hypertension. African leafy vegetables may significantly contribute to meet the dietary guidelines recommendations for adequate vegetable intake which are targeted to address NCDs. Objective: The aim of the study was to determine the knowledge and consumption of indigenous vegetables among adults with hypertension at a peri-urban healthcare facility. Methods: The study was a cross-sectional study at a healthcare facility in a township (peri-urban area) in Gqeberha, Eastern Cape, South Africa. Two hundred and thirty participants were conveniently sampled from May-November 2021. Data was collected using an interviewer administered structured questionnaire. Results: The median age of the participants was 56 years, 74.3 % (n=171) was females and all participants were of African ethnicity. Only 46.1 % of participants knew what type of plants indigenous vegetables were, most participants said that they thought that it was spinach (Swiss chard). Over half of the participants (56.5 %) responded that they had access to indigenous vegetables in their area, while a third (36.5 %) did not have access to them. The majority (53.5 %) of the participants had not consumed indigenous vegetables in the past month. The main reason for not consuming indigenous vegetables reported was lack of availability (33 %) and lack of knowledge about them (18.3 %). Most participants agreed that indigenous vegetables were healthy (94.8 %) and were a source of nutrients (92.2 %). The most identified available indigenous vegetable plant leaves consumed were Dwarf nettle (52.3 %), Tulbaghia (40%), Black night shade (31.5 %), Amaranth (33.8 %), pumpkin leaves (24.6 %) and Black jack (17.7 %). Conclusion: Despite most participants being older African women, many of the participants had not consumed indigenous vegetables in the past month and most had no ready access to them. Keywords: African, indigenous vegetables, hypertension, vegetables, dietary guidelines

Abstract:
The paper analyses the surplus and production in the period 2010-2021 for total vegetables, field-grown vegetables, vegetables grown in glasshouses and greenhouses, vegetables from home gardens and the main vegetable species: potatoes, tomatoes, aubergines, peppers, dried onions, white cabbage. For these, the main statistical indicators were calculated on the basis of areas and yields, that is, standard deviation, coefficient of variation. Romania's place in the European Union in terms of area and production of the crops analysed was also identified. Thus, Romania is at the top of the ranking for the area cultivated with cabbage (19.45 thousand hectares), it ranks 2nd for the area cultivated with aubergines (4.94 thousand hectares) and peppers (10.37 thousand hectares), and 3rd for the area cultivated with tomatoes (18.13 thousand hectares). In terms of production, Romania ranks 3rd for the production of cabbage (548.3 thousand tonnes) and tomatoes (95.86 thousand tonnes). According to the coefficient of variation, for the production of vegetable crops, the variation of the data series is small and the annual rate is negative, except for vegetables grown in glasshouses (4.66%) and peppers (0.19%). For area, the annual rate is negative, except for vegetables grown in glasshouses (4.64%).

Abstract:
Fruits and vegetables supply chain in Sri Lanka has always been a contemporary topic due to its significant value to the economy of the country. The existing fruits and vegetables supply chain is already suffering from dilemmas such as high price fluctuations, excess supply and wastage, involvement of large number of intermediaries and lack of infrastructure. The recent Covid-19 pandemic has put a tremendous pressure on already trembling supply chains. Sudden lock downs have led to disruption of existing distribution channels resulting farmers throwing away millions of tons of fresh fruits and vegetables while consumers in urban areas paying extremely high prices for fresh produce. The current situations clearly demonstrate the need for a more responsive and integrated vegetables supply chain for Sri Lanka. This paper attempts to create a conceptual model for the vegetable supply chain ecosystem for Sri Lanka.

Abstract:
The main objective of this study was to determine the suitability of using 3% acid-alcohol in iodine redox titrimetric determination of L-ascorbic quantities in chlorophyll-green vegetables. The main challenge in the protocol has been detection of titration end-point vegetables samples with high concentration of chlorophyll in the leaves. Chlorophyll doesn’t contrast with the blue-black color noticed at the end-point. This project therefore developed a modified iodine titration procedure that enhances the accuracy of end-point detection using an acid-alcohol. The analysis of vitamin C content was done by using iodine titration. In the titration, a 0.005molL-1 Iodine solution as a titrant, 0.5% starch as an indicator solution and vegetable samples containing the analyte L-ascorbic acid were used. The quantities of L-ascorbic acid content in different vegetables were determined using the novel titration method. For control experiments, vitamin C in orange fruits juice was determined. The visibility of the end points in orange fruit and vegetables were compared. The vegetables tested were Sukuma wiki, green pepper, spinach and cabbages. Three titration experiments were done to determine the average titer volumes of iodine solution used. The volume was used to determine the mass of ascorbic acid reacted in the samples of vegetables analyzed. The results were Orange 53.0gma/100g, collard greens 35.0gms/100g, green pepper 80gms/100g, spinach 27.5gms/100g and cabbage 36gms/100g of fresh weight. A two-sample t-test assuming equal variances used in the analysis of significant difference between the mean of masses of L-ascorbic acid in this study and the mean of masses in the previous study. Given α=0.05 and p =0.99, it was confirmed that there was no significant difference between the means. The results of the study were thus consistent with those of previous findings. A 3% acid-alcohol proves to be efficient in decolorization of chlorophyll to achieve a clear end–point during titration of vegetable samples. However, more studies should be done on other vegetables to validate the findings of this study Key words: L-ascorbic acid, 3% acid-alcohol, titration, vegetables

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background: Previous studies suggest that individual and environmental factors were associated lack of vegetable and fruit consumption, which can lead to obesity. Recent studies have indicated the level of vegetable and fruit intake in children aged 2-7 years is particularly low. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of fruits and vegetables intake on obesity in school-aged children. Subjects and Method: This was meta-analysis and systematic review. The study was conducted by collecting published articles from Google Scholar, PubMed, Research Gate, dan Springer Link databases, from year 2011 to 2019. Keywords used ”Nutrition” OR “Obesity” AND ”Cross sectional”. The inclusion criteria were full text, using English OR Indonesian language, using cross-sectional study design, and reporting adjusted odds ratio. The study population (P) was school-aged children. Intervention (I) was fruits and vegetables intake with comparison (C) malnutrition. The study outcome (O) was obesity. The collected articles were selected by PRISMA flow chart. The quantitative data were analyzed using Revman 5.3. Results: 6 studies from Ethiopia, South Afrika, Nepal, Ghana, Saudi Arabia, reported that low fruits and vegetables intake increased the risk of obesity in school-aged children (aOR= 1.34; 95% CI= 1.06 to 1.70; p<0.001; I2= 92%). Conclusion: Low fruits and vegetables intake increased the risk of obesity in school-aged children.

There is a rapid increase in organic fruit and vegetables worldwide as well as a rapidly growing potential of organic markets in developing countries such as Eurasian countries. Fruits and vegetables of Uzbek are one of the popular with taste and vitamins in the world, but the Uzbek market of organic food products have not been formed yet, to my knowledge there is no any literature regarding the topic in Uzbekistan. That is why the aim of the article is to explore the development of organic fruits and vegetable market in world’s developed and Eurasian countries. Additionally, the Uzbek peoples’ willingness-to-pay (WTP) and their expectations with regards to organic fruits and vegetables were investigated.

Abstract:
Many studies agree that the population’s income affects compli­ance with the principles of rational nutrition. The basis of rational nutrition is the consumption of fruits and vegetables. The paper aims to identify Euro­pean countries in which inhabitants of the same income groups have sim­ilar preferences regarding the weekly frequency of fruit and vegetable con­sumption. EU-SILC data from 2019, from 30 European countries, available at Eurostat, were used for the analyses. The frequency of consumption of fruit and vegetables was selected at least once a day, from 1 to 3 per week, from 4 to 6 per week and never or occasionally. Descriptive analysis, factor anal­ysis, principal component analysis method and cluster method of hierarchi­cal clustering, Ward’s method, were used for the analyses. The results of the descriptive analysis show that, on average, the most pre­ferred frequency of consumption of fruits and vegetables is at least once a day in the monitored countries. It is most preferred by inhabitants of the fifth quintile (55.707% for fruit consumption, and 54.796% for vegetable con­sumption). The least preferred frequency of fruit and vegetable consump­tion is never or occasionally. It is the least preferred among the inhabitants of the fifth quintile (5.826% for fruit consumption, and 2.767% for vegeta­ble consumption). Factor analysis identified 7 factors that affect the prefer­ences of inhabitants regarding the consumption of fruits and vegetables in the monitored countries. These factors were the inputs to the cluster analy­sis, which divided the countries into 5 clusters. The largest cluster of coun­tries was made up of the inhabitants of the Czech Republic, Denmark, Esto­nia, Greece, Austria, Poland, Slovakia, Finland, Sweden, Iceland, and Turkey, where up to 35% of the monitored countries were included.

Abstract:
In this study, a total of 49 samples of fruits and vegetables (dates, leafy vegetables and fruiting vegetables) produced locally in the farms in Qatar and 42 samples of soil and water from these farms were analyzed using Gas chromatography-electron capture detector (GC/ECD), and Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) to detect residual levels of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs). The levels of OCPs of all samples were below the MRLs. The correlation analysis results showed that water and soil could be a potential source of the contamination of aBHC, b-BHC, heptachlor, g-chlordane and endrin in the fruit and vegetable samples. In this study, a risk assessment analysis was also performed to estimate daily intake of OCPs by Qatari population. The risk assessment study revealed that the intake of the studied OCPs posed no risk to human health due to their levels of intake below MRLs.

Abstract:
Growing volume of washed vegetables in Europe and Lithuania means that more drinking water is consumed and more wastewater is produced. Farmers, who engage in washing vegetables, face the problems of wastewater treatment, wastewater storage and utilization. Wastewater released to the environment from their farms would meet hygiene and environmental protection criteria. The aim of the study was to assess the contamination of the root vegetable wash water and to evaluate the possiblity of cleaning of wastewater in the land-based treatment system consisting of one constructed wetland and two biological ponds. The contamination of wastewater, produced by washed root vegetables, in Lithuanian farms was measured according to suspended solids (SS), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), total nitrogen and total phosphorus. Pollution of the wash water and wastewater was evaluated comparing the mean values with legislative limit values and with typical sewage contamination values. In all farms wastewater of initial root vegetables washing was treated in settling basins. Wastewater of one carrots washing farm was treated in the land-based wastewater treatment system consisting of surface flow constructed wetland and two biological ponds. Efficiency of the wastewater treatment in this system was according to suspended solids 90%, BOD7 – 97%, CODCr – 92%, total nitrogen – 98% , total phosphorus – 97%. The result shows, that the natural wastewater treatment system is suitable for farms, that wash and produce vegetables, but before releasing wastewater to the environment, it has to be settled.

Abstract:
This book enumerates the diversity in the prevalence and use of vegetables in parts of Myanmar. It draws on our field studies in Myanmar, where we encountered people consuming interesting plant species as vegetables. For example, we saw parts of the moorva dregea (Wattakaka volubilis), belonging to the family Apocyanaceae, and jengkol (Archidendron pauciflorum), belonging to the family Fabaceae, being consumed as vegetables. These plants are generally considered poisonous by scientists. Likewise, the roots of the winged bean (Psophocarpus tetragonolobus) and the seedlings of the wine palm (Borassus flabellifer), which have a pungent taste, are very popular vegetables in the dry season in Myanmar. Tea is a globally well-known and widely-consumed beverage. However, in Myanmar, Pu’er tea (Camellia sinensis var. assamica) is consumed as a beverage and a vegetable. The leaf that is consumed as a vegetable is fermented and preserved.

Abstract:
The northeastern United States is a diverse region containing the seven most densely populated States in the Nation. Agriculture in the Northeast is varied, including vegetable production, ornamentals and fruits, animal production, and field crops. Forests are a dominant land use in the northern parts of the region and in the Appalachian Mountains. Northeast farmers are already experiencing crop damage from extreme precipitation. Wet springs are delaying planting and harvest dates and reducing yields for grain and vegetables. Heavy rain in the Northeast has increased more than any other region in the country.
