The document summarizes how Provincial Reconstruction Teams (PRTs) and extension services helped develop the dairy industry in Kirkuk, Iraq. Specifically, the Kirkuk PRT's Economics/Agriculture Section worked to establish small, locally-operated dairy processors to produce sanitary milk products that could compete with imports. This created jobs and supported economic development goals. The project trained farmers and veterinarians, but lessons showed greater government involvement was needed. Overall it helped develop the local dairy sector while supporting counterinsurgency objectives of providing employment.

With Indian agri-food sector becoming a hotbed for MNC investment, we look at how agribusiness can help in improving the state of Indian agriculture and the need for policy regulations. The success of NIABI in furthering agribusiness opportunities through technology commercialization shows that the incubator network can play a pivotal role in promoting agribusiness in the country. A favourable environment supporting agribusiness and incubators needs to be developed so as to promote the sector.
This Thematic Paper is part of a Toolkit for Project Design (Livestock Thematic Papers: Tools for Project Design) which reflects IFAD’s commitment to developing a sustainable livestock sector in which poor farmers and herders might have higher incomes, and better access to assets, services, technologies and markets.
The paper indents to be a practical tool for development practitioners, project designers and policymakers to define appropriate livestock development interventions. It also provides recommendations on critical issues for rural development and also possible responses and actions to encourage the socio-economic empowerment of poor livestock keepers.

Impact of Digital Technology on Livestock Farming by Adeshile, Adedeji RichardDeji Richard Adeshile
This project is submitted as end-of-course requirement (Digital Dividends: Strengthening the analog foundation of the digital revolution).
Key target audience are the Governments, development partners, private investors and the general public.
The message is that, ICT driven agric-economy is a win-win catalyst for commercial returns to Farmers and other Private investors as well as social returns to Governments.
Governments must act now to mitigate inherent threat to Food Security and humanity due to degenerating impacts of climate change and Community unrest. The threat also gives negative outlook on Governments efforts to making Agriculture a key alternative to non-oil revenue generation.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Abstract
War torn countries like Iraq suffer from food insecurity and a lack of jobs, contributing to sectarian violence and instability. Provincial Reconstruction Teams
(PRT) based on military bases throughout Iraq were created by several federal departments including USDA, bringing civilian subject matter experts from the
United States into Iraq to support private industry development. Private industry in Iraq is lagging, Kirkuk PRT, based on Forward Operating Base (FOB) Warrior
in Kirkuk, Iraq; tasked the Economics/Agriculture Section with supporting and helping develop the private sector in Kirkuk, Wendy Rapp, Livestock
Specialist/CPD with University of Missouri Extension was a part of this team. This project, sustained the goals of COIN (counter-insurgency) strategy the military
supported to create jobs instead of bombs. COIN was used throughout Iraq by both military and civilians to help bring jobs to Iraqis, the thought being, when
people have jobs and hope for a future, they are much less likely to incite violence. In 2009, the Agriculture/Economics section of Kirkuk PRT focused on
assisting-the private dairy sector in Kirkuk, Iraq. Although Iraqis prefer locally produced dairy products, these products tended to be very unsanitary and much
more expensive than imported dairy products. Kirkuk PRT worked with local Iraqi leaders to help the private dairy industry produce locally made, sanitary dairy
products that could compete with imported products.
