The country's winegrower entrepreneurs have discovered a new opportunity to expand their core business by serving tourists. The tourists of wine businesses have changed. Nowadays visitors to wineries are not only wine experts. This refers to consumers attracted by new activities, such as discovering new scenic spots, sporting and cultural activities. These changes bring an increase in the number of tourists to wine producing regions around the world. In this context, the purpose of the paper is to identify and analyze the current trends and developments in the wine tourism sector in Moldova, focusing on sustainable practices. We use academic articles, industry reports, and case studies to gain insights into international trends in sustainable wine tourism and compare them with Moldova’s current situation. Tourists' appreciation of wine tourism is also shaped by sociological surveys. Enhanced marketing strategies in wine tourism enable wineries to strengthen their communication and increase their global visibility.

In the context of global food security and the intensification of sustainable agriculture, triticale has become a relevant alternative cereal in food industry. In this paper, the status of triticale crop in the world, EU-27 and Romania was analyzed based on the data provided by the FAOSTAT platform for cultivated area, production quantity and yield. The results showed that in 2022, worldwide, the area cultivated with triticale was 3,616.7 thousand ha, the production quantity was 14,157.9 thousand tons, and the yield 3,914 kg/ha. In the same year, the EU-27 held 71.5% of the world cultivated area, producing 79.6% of the world production of triticale and obtaining a yield of 4,362 kg/ha, higher by 11.4% compared to the world yield. The main producers of triticale, by production, both in the world and in the EU-27 were Poland, Germany and France. Romania occupied the 10th place in the world and the 6th place in the EU-27 in terms of cultivated area (57 thousand ha), as well as the 8th place in the EU-27 in terms of production (192.4 thousand tons). In order to increase the amount of triticale-based food products, it is necessary to develop and use high-quality varieties that meet market demands, but also the development of new processing technologies.

With 755 million tonnes consumed as a cereal grain in 2020, rice is the most consumed crop in the world. Estimating rice's water requirements is crucial since the crop often grows under flood conditions and water serves a number of vital purposes for it. This study uses the Penman-Monteith (FAO 56-PM) method to assess and estimate evapotranspiration, whereas the METRIC model is used to calculate surface enrage balance. The estimation and monitoring of field agricultural water use has shown to be a successful application of remote sensing technology. Using remote sensing techniques, this work aimed to develop a method for estimating crop coefficient and actual crop evapotranspiration (ETc). for rice using METRIC model within the Google Earth Engine (GEE) based on Landsat-8 satellite imagery. The average seasonal ETo (FAO56) resulted 469 mm for crop rice and the water productivity (WP) was 0.42 kg m-3. Good correlations were found between the crop coefficients (Kc) proposed by FAO and (Kc)Sat, with R2 0.92. The KcFAO used to validate KcSat. Linear relationship between KcFAO and KcSat was established and R2 was 0.96. Normalized Deference Vegetation Index (NDVI) used to estimate crop coefficient according to satellite data (KcSat). Landsat TM and Landsat ETM+ data were used to outline the growth of vegetation cover, and these data were coupled with land surface temperature (LST) taken from Landsat8 satellite data and air temperature (Tair) acquired from ground stations. The findings indicated that as cultivated area expanded during rice development, (LST) declined by around 2.3°C and (Tair) reduced by roughly 1.6°C.

This study examined vegetable farmers' perception towards hydroponic technologies in Ogun State, Nigeria. The study employed the use of a two-stage sampling technique to employ 320 vegetable farmers as respondents. Primary data was gathered through organized interviews and a structured questionnaire. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze data collected. Findings showed that only 31.3% were involved primarily in farming, livelihood diversification was 49.4% in favour of trading/business. Also, 35% of the respondents belonged to cooperatives and 90% had a favorable perception of hydroponics. The study examined the constraints to the practice of hydroponics where increase in the tariff of power supply ranked first position. Results of Chi-square test of relationship between socioeconomic characteristics of respondents and their perceptions of hydroponics farming technology showed that only level of education and membership of cooperatives indicated significant relationship. The study recommends that empowerment programmes and knowledge acquisition programmes on hydroponic technology farming should be targeted at vegetable farmers who are members of farmers’ cooperatives and this is to ensure successful knowledge impact and positive effects of the programme.

This paper presents a possibilities of infrared thermography especially focused on temperature measurement as a non-destructive to monitor temperature profile during potato frying With using three different, easily accessible skillet materials stainless steel Wock Skillet, Stainless steel with PTFE polytetrafluoroethylene material and Tefal Skillet. The thermal imaging cameras and software to read skin surface temperature and calculate an estimated core body temperature. The results recorded the internal and external temperatures at the three Skillet materials, the temperature of air, oil, fire, and potatoes, for the Wock Skillet before frying 29.8, 36.9, 21.7, 45.9, 216.7 and 17.2Co while after frying 50.9, 61.9, 23.1, 111.9, 204 and 31.8 Corespectively. as they were for the Teffal Skillet before frying 131, 154.9, 25, 94.2, 206.1 and 17.2 Cowhile after frying 200.7, 201.3, 27.8, 161.1, 260.7 and 40.1Co respectively. as they were for the Wock Skillet before frying 59.7, 51.6, 26.7, 65.6, 129.8 and 17.2Co while after frying 99.4, 126, 28.8, 120.1, 197.4 and 35.1Co respectively. Therefore, the best temperature profile of frying with typesSkillet for the least heat emission, and the lowest temperature recorded for oil and potatoes, were in the Wock Skillet, followed by the Teffal Skillet, and finally the EL RAMLAY Skillet.

Located in the northern part of the Muntenia region, Argeș County benefits from the beauties that nature has generously provided. The Romanian relief is varied and spectacular, but in few regions can the grandeur of a sunset or the flavor of leaves moistened by mountain dew be fully captured. In a single place, the traveller can perceive the historically rich aroma of the streets of Golești and refresh themselves in the frozen breeze of the Transfăgărășan. This place, this natural amphitheater, is "Little Romania" or, according to the administrative map, Argeș County. Therefore, the concept of tourism seems at home when we talk about the mountain areas of the Făgăraș Mountains that belong to the Argeș territory. This work aims to exemplify modern techniques for promoting tourism. Promotion refers to the set of informational means, activities, and methods used to capture the attention of potential tourists to meet their needs and desires. In this work, we focused on the online promotion of tourist destinations. To this end, we went through the stages of creating a presentation website for the locality of Nucșoara. Currently, many people opt to search for certain information via the Internet, thus there are numerous advantages to this promotional method, which we have also mentioned in this work.
