THE UNDERLYING CONCERNS DEFYING ORGANIC FARMERS IN THE PHILIPPINES
| Title: THE UNDERLYING CONCERNS DEFYING ORGANIC FARMERS IN THE PHILIPPINES |
| Authors: Amabella Grace N. Siaton, Judy Ann O. Ferrater-Gimena, Erik T. Legaspi and Marvin S. Naraja |
| Abstract: The shifting trend in the consumption of health and environmentally friendly products in the market prompted the government and selected farming entities to shift to organic agriculture from conventional farming methods. Hence, the Philippine government conducted programs motivating the local farmers to shift to organic farming, given its potential in the market. Moreover, this study explores the underlying challenges defying the farmers in adopting organic farming and the action taken to counter the issues. The investigation adopted the case study research design, using the validated researcher-made interview guide in data gathering. Using the purposive sampling technique, ten (10) farmers from the selected accredited organic farms in Bohol and Negros Occidental willingly and voluntarily participated in the one-one-interview with the researchers and field investigators. For data analysis, thematic analysis was used. The themes developed from the challenges experienced by the farmers in adopting organic farming in the aspect of production and marketing are Nature’s Devastating Effect on the Crops, Pests, and Insects: Farmers’ Worst Enemies, Competition in the Market Share of Organic Produce Versus the Non-Organic Products, Ensuring the Health of the Soil, Long Period of Working and Waiting, Cyclical Nature of Farming Challenges. So, to remedy these problems, they realized that Challenges in Organic Farming are Inevitable and needed to Widen their Learning Horizon Through Training and Seminars. Further, the challenges they experience in their quest of adopting organic farming in the provision of supporting infrastructure are: Absence of Supporting Infrastructure Needs Self Help, Selective Provision of Government Assistance, and No Support Since Time Immemorial. To survive, the actions taken were: Farmers’ Self Reliance Leads to Survival and Financiers Provide Capital to the Farmers. The organic farmer in the Cebu and Negros Occidental, Philippines, has been confronted with various challenging situations that affected their sustainability amid competing with the producers of vegetables, fruits, and livestock using conventional farming methods. The most significant problem the organic farmers face is the reality of the Philippines’ vulnerability to strong typhoons and other calamities that would destroy the crops. Also, because organic farming does not apply commercial chemicals, there were instances that insects and pests would destroy their plants. Also, organic agriculture requires more time to restore the health of the soil that was destroyed after long years of applying harmful pesticides and fertilizers. Hence, the yield that would compensate for the farmers’ efforts and capital outlay cannot be recovered immediately after each cropping season. |

EFFECT OF BOARD DIVERSITY ON FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE OF QUOTED HOSPITALITY FIRMS IN NIGERIA
| Title: EFFECT OF BOARD DIVERSITY ON FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE OF QUOTED HOSPITALITY FIRMS IN NIGERIA |
| Authors: Amahalu, Nestor Ndubuisi; Okoye, Pius Vincent Chukwubuikem and Nnadi, Chimaobi Patricia |
| Abstract: This study examined the effect of board diversity on the financial performance of quoted hospitality firms in Nigeria for a period of nineteen years (19) years spanning from 2003 to 2021. Specifically, this study ascertained the effect of gender diversity, age diversity, and board independence diversity on cash flow return on investment. The panel data sets used in this study were obtained from the annual reports and accounts and Nigerian Exchange (NGX) Group fact books for the study period. An ex-post facto research design was employed. Inferential statistics using Pearson Coefficient Correlation and Panel Least Square Regression analysis were applied to test the hypotheses of the study. The findings showed that Gender diversity has a significant and positive effect on cash flow return on investment (β1 = 0.141799; P-value = 0.0000 < 0.05); Age diversity has a significant and positive effect on cash flow return on investment (β2 = 0.018494; P-value = 0.0000 < 0.05); Board independence has a significant and positive effect on cash flow return on investment (β3 = 0.289258; P-value = 0.0000 < 0.05) at 5% level of significance respectively. The study recommended inter alia that Company boards should have an independent majority since an independent majority on the board is more likely to consider the best interests of shareowners first. In times of high environmental uncertainty, outside directors can link the firm with scarce resources, and help in effective strategy development and execution which can ultimately improve firm performance |

A researcher developed a questionnaire titled: Google Classroom Perception Questionnaire (GCPQ) was used to collect data. The test-retest reliability coefficient yielded an r-value of 0.79 and 0.82 on the usefulness and benefits of Google classroom respectively. Research questions 1 and 2 were analyzed using mean (𝑋̅) and standard deviation (S.D). The result showed that students have positive perceptions of the usefulness of various features of Google classroom including the singular screen view for student assignments, class arrangement, transfer of class ownership, new class integration, and also commenting features for teaching education courses in universities in Edo State. Also, they had favorable disposition on the benefits of Google classroom with reference to time and file saving benefits, flexibility, user-friendly interface, teachers’ evaluation, and feedback for teaching Business Education courses in universities in Edo State.

| Authors: Mehmet Safa KUCUKYAZICI and Assist. Prof. Dr. Saban Onur VIGA |
| Abstract: Investors want more information about the company traded on the stock exchange and that the investment they will make will result from analytical decisions. Equity capital adequacy reduces the risk of bankruptcy and concordat of the firm. Therefore, measuring equity capital and determining its adequacy will positively affect economic stability. Factors such as debt levels of companies, cash flow statements, and profit margins on current assets draw attention. This study examined foreign resource distributions and capital adequacy of 32 companies traded in Borsa Istanbul between 2009 and 2019 regarding debt/equity ratios. The company information obtained from BIST has been analyzed for statistical significance. When the relationship between the equity distributions of the enterprises between 2009-2019 was analyzed by correlation analysis, it was determined that there were positive and significant relationships between the data (p≤.05). |
