The Impact of Financial Development and Economic Growth on the Economy of Kingdom Saudi Arabia.
The purpose of this study is to use the fully modified ordinary least squares (FMOLS) method to examine the connection between financial development and economic growth in Saudi Arabia from 2013 to 2023. The growth of the credit market (bank loans to the private sector) and the stock market (the general stock market index) have been the manifestations of the evolution of financial markets. According to the findings, domestic bank credit to the private sector influences economic growth in the long run, but in the short run, it has little effect and even has a negative impact. In contrast, the stock market index has an unexpectedly small but positive impact in the short term, but a long-term beneficial effect that is barely noticeable. Lastly, there is good and substantial evidence that increasing industrial production will contribute to economic growth, both now and in the future.
Micro Finance Awareness and its Impact in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
The purpose of this research was to examine the effects of microfinancing in Saudi Arabia. One hundred participants were polled to gauge the general public's knowledge about microfinance. In addition, the information was culled from secondary sources, which included various books, periodicals, newspapers, and electronic books. The results show that the notion of microfinancing was foreign to the respondents. In addition to helping out entrepreneurs and unfortunate individuals, microfinancing was also in line with Islamic Shariah law. Furthermore, the majority of respondents remained neutral or gave inappropriate answers, suggesting they were unfamiliar with microfinancing and its concept. There have been several suggested financial programmes, some of which have been successful and others which have been unsuccessful. The importance of solid individual society empowerment and firm maintenance cannot be overstated. People were encouraged to strive for the betterment of society and themselves through the microfinancing concept.
Impact of public investments on the growth of agricultural sector in Meghalaya
The paper examined the past trend and pattern in public investments under Agriculture as represented by the capital expenditure made in Agriculture & Allied, Major & Minor Irrigation and Flood Control, Rural Development and Special Area Development Programmes, and its impact on the growth of agriculture sector. The Bounds test approach to cointegration and Autoregressive Distributed lag (ARDL) model was used for finding the long run relationships. The shares of the expenditures under these heads to the total expenditures for developmental purpose were found to be decreasing during the period 1990-91 to 2019-20. Among the components of expenditure under Agriculture & Allied, Crop Husbandry received the highest share over the years. Soil and Water Conservation and Animal Husbandry are other components which received comparatively higher investments. Other sub-sectors like Fisheries, Agricultural Research and Education, Food Storage and Warehousing, Cooperation have steadily received around 2% of the total Developmental expenditures over the years, which is quite low. The results for long run estimate of ARDL model showed that expenditure on Irrigation and Flood Control had a significant negative effect on agricultural GSDP. Since Meghalaya is a developing state, with economy primarily dependent on agriculture, the public investments in terms of basic assets and infrastructure creation is prerequisite. Maintaining a mechanism to monitor implementation of expenditures through projects at different levels will be effective measures to enhance returns to public investments in Agriculture.
Evaluation of popular sugarcane varieties for quality, yield and energy potential under subtropical climates
Sugarcane is a crop grown for its sugar, ethanol, and energy. It is a C4 crop that is primarily used in the agroindustry and has a high potential for biomass production. The best performing clones in a few environments or genotypes that consistently yield well across environments can be found by evaluating genotypes over a variety of environments and years. The current study was undertaken to evaluate the set of 136 clones including 6 checks in the augmented RCBD with 5 blocks in three years 2016-17, 2017-18 and 2019-20 for yield and quality traits at ICAR-SBI, RC Karnal. A set of 24 popular released varieties were used to evaluate for the energy potential. Statistical analysis revealed that significant genotype main effects and genotype by year interaction effects. Analysis for energy identified the CoPb 9181, CoBln 9008, CoP 9702 and Co 0118 best sugarcane varieties. The study pinpointed the superior clonal varieties for quality, yield and energy were Co 0118 and CoPb 9181 in comparison to the standard checks Co 0238, Co 0239 CoJ 64, CoS 767, CoS 8436 and CoPant 97222.
Real-time Apple Quality Inspection on a Sorting Machine Using YOLOv7 and SORT
Apples, a popular fruit, require thorough quality inspections to enhance their commercial value. To assess apple quality in terms of the presence of defects, this study proposes a real-time apple sorting system that combines a single RGB camera with the YOLOv7 object detection model and the SORT tracking algorithm. Using images from the apple sorting machine, the system trains the YOLOv7 model to detect five defect types, stems, and calyxes while differentiating between defective and non-defective apples. The SORT algorithm integrates multi-frame data, tracks, and keeps apple labels. With YOLOv7 achieving 71.7% mAP and 69.4 fps in defect detection and SORT achieving 91.2% MOTA and 85.2% MOTP, the proposed system demonstrates high efficiency. Combining detection and tracking yields an overall quality rating of 95.8% F1 and 60.9 fps. However, defect-specific detection, such as insect damage (46.9% mAP) and physical damage (38.3% mAP), requires improvement. This system—effective for apple quality inspection, shows potential for broader agricultural product sorting applications.
