COVID-19 and family participation in school activities.: Teaching experiences around the Learn at Home program

Evangelina Cervantes Holguín Pavel Roel Gutiérrez Sandoval (2022, [Artículo, Artículo])

The article analyzes, from the qualitative method, the participation of families and teaching staff of the first cycle of primary education in the state of Chihuahua (Mexico) to carry out the various activities of the Learn at Home program implemented in March 2020 as a response to the resulting health confinement by COVID-19. It is concluded that the participation of families in school emergency situations implies improving the relationship between teachers, families, and the community in the implementation processes of educational programs with greater support to organize study times, take advantage of the different cultural capitals and promote family co-responsibility.

The spatial control of migrants on the Chihuahua border

EDGAR ABEL CASTRO (2023, [Artículo, Artículo])

This article tries to link the immigration policies of the United States and Mexico with the narrative developed by Michel Foucault. It shows how racism is the axis on which the State of biopower exercises its claims and its effects of power on bodies and on life. Thus, the current political rationality goes through the management of the living body of people, their health, and their spatiality. This principle extends to the homicidal function of the State. Two events that occurred on the Chihuahua border demonstrate this.

High spatial resolution seasonal crop yield forecasting for heterogeneous maize environments in Oromia, Ethiopia

Kindie Tesfaye Vakhtang Shelia Pierre C. Sibiry Traore Dawit Solomon Gerrit Hoogenboom (2023, [Artículo])

Seasonal climate variability determines crop productivity in Ethiopia, where rainfed smallholder farming systems dominate in the agriculture production. Under such conditions, a functional and granular spatial yield forecasting system could provide risk management options for farmers and agricultural and policy experts, leading to greater economic and social benefits under highly variable environmental conditions. Yet, there are currently only a few forecasting systems to support early decision making for smallholder agriculture in developing countries such as Ethiopia. To address this challenge, a study was conducted to evaluate a seasonal crop yield forecast methodology implemented in the CCAFS Regional Agricultural Forecasting Toolbox (CRAFT). CRAFT is a software platform that can run pre-installed crop models and use the Climate Predictability Tool (CPT) to produce probabilistic crop yield forecasts with various lead times. Here we present data inputs, model calibration, evaluation, and yield forecast results, as well as limitations and assumptions made during forecasting maize yield. Simulations were conducted on a 0.083° or ∼ 10 km resolution grid using spatially variable soil, weather, maize hybrids, and crop management data as inputs for the Cropping System Model (CSM) of the Decision Support System for Agrotechnology Transfer (DSSAT). CRAFT combines gridded crop simulations and a multivariate statistical model to integrate the seasonal climate forecast for the crop yield forecasting. A statistical model was trained using 29 years (1991–2019) data on the Nino-3.4 Sea surface temperature anomalies (SSTA) as gridded predictors field and simulated maize yields as the predictand. After model calibration the regional aggregated hindcast simulation from 2015 to 2019 performed well (RMSE = 164 kg/ha). The yield forecasts in both the absolute and relative to the normal yield values were conducted for the 2020 season using different predictor fields and lead times from a grid cell to the national level. Yield forecast uncertainties were presented in terms of cumulative probability distributions. With reliable data and rigorous calibration, the study successfully demonstrated CRAFT's ability and applicability in forecasting maize yield for smallholder farming systems. Future studies should re-evaluate and address the importance of the size of agricultural areas while comparing aggregated simulated yields with yield data collected from a fraction of the target area.

Sustainable maize intensification through site-specific nutrient management advice: Experimental evidence from Nigeria

Miet Maertens Oyakhilomen Oyinbo Tahirou Abdoulaye Jordan Chamberlin (2023, [Artículo])

There is growing evidence on the impacts of site-specific nutrient management (SSNM) from Asia. The evidence for Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), where SSNM developments are more recent and where conditions concerning soil fertility and fertilizer use differ importantly from those in Asia, is extremely scarce. We evaluate a SSNM advisory tool that allows extension agents to generate fertilizer recommendations tailored to the specific situation of an individual farmer’s field, using a three-year randomized controlled trial with 792 smallholder farmers in the maize belt of northern Nigeria. Two treatment arms were implemented: T1 and T2 both provide SSNM information on nutrient use and management, but T2 provides additional information on maize price distributions and the associated variability of expected returns to fertilizer use. We estimate average and heterogenous intent-to-treat effects on agronomic, economic and environmental plot-level outcomes. We find that T1 and T2 lead to substantial increases (up to 116%) in the adoption of good fertilizer management practices and T2 leads to incremental increases (up to 18%) in nutrient application rates, yields and revenues. Both treatments improve low levels of nutrient use efficiency and reduce high levels of greenhouse gas emission intensity, after two years of treatment. Our findings underscore the possibility of a more gradual and sustainable intensification of smallholder agriculture in SSA, as compared with the Asian Green Revolution, through increased fertilizer use accompanied by improved fertilizer management.

Se necesitan tres para bailar tango: los retos de la reproducción en plantas

Ivón Mercedes Ramírez Morillo NESTOR EDUARDO RAIGOZA FLORES ALBERTO ENRIQUE ESCUDERO AZCORRA Tanit Toledano Thompson (2022, [Artículo])

La reproducción en plantas con flores involucra óvulos, polen y una exitosa fecundación. Esto implica que el polen, contenido en las anteras, debe liberarse y llegar al ovario, donde se encuentran los óvulos a la espera de ser fecundados. Siendo las plantas organismos sésiles, ¿cómo llega el polen a los óvulos? Veamos quien es el tercero que se necesita para bailar tango.

From character to person. A contribution to the study of characterization of real people in factual narrative texts   

Martín Ignacio Koval (2023, [Artículo, Artículo])

In this paper we propose some arguments in favor of the terminological differentiation between agents in fictional settings (characters) and those in factual settings (people, actors, etc.), and nevertheless we suggest the applicability of the tools of narratology to factual journalistic texts. Then, we propose an analytical-descriptive model -conceived only as provisional- which, although it resorts to traditional tools of narratology "in the strict sense" (that is, the one that deals exclusively with fictional texts), tries to do justice to the aforementioned categorical difference between fictional and factual texts insofar as it is accompanied, in the presentation, by a series of mediations that allow the extrapolation from one setting to the other. This model will be explained on the basis of the analysis of a fragment of a recently published journalistic chronicle, referring to the death of the Argentine soccer player Diego Maradona.

Danzas veracruzanas como grafías de la memoria. Recuerdos de indios, moros, negros y cristianos

GUADALUPE SANCHEZ ALVAREZ (2023, [Capítulo de libro])

Las danzas tradicionales, como las de los pueblos originarios del estado de Veracruz en México, son invaluables discursos históricos de la memoria. A través de ellas y su constante repetición, las comunidades y pueblos practicantes transmiten valores y consolidan sus identidades. Es por lo que se constituyen como complejos sistemas interculturales mantenedores de conocimiento, atributos por los cuales, necesitan ser replanteadas para un análisis en profundidad que vaya más allá de las formas prototípicas acostumbradas. Por lo anterior, en este trabajo se propone examinarlas desde el enfoque historiográfico, no sin antes repensarlas grafías no escriturarias, resultado de la sistematización historiográfica.

Traditional dances, such as those of peoples from the state of Veracruz in Mexico, are invaluable historical discourses of memory. Through them and their constant repetition, practicing communities and peoples transmit values and consolidate their identities. Therefore, they are constituted as complex intercultural systems maintaining knowledge, attributes by which, they need to be rethinker for an in-depth analysis that goes beyond the usual proto-typical forms. Therefore, in this work it is proposed to examine them from the historiographic approach, not without first rethink them nonwriting spellings, the result of historiographic systematization.
