This study on factors influencing decisions for using outside funds for Farm investments and for proprietor withdrawals was carried out among rural small-scale farm households in Abia state, Nigeria. A cross-sectional survey of ninety (90) rural farm households of multi-type (varied) enterprises was carried out using cluster random sampling technique in three communities, each chosen from one of the three agricultural zones of the state. Results indicated rural household level variables that positively influenced decisions to source farm investment fund to include level of education, gender, membership of cooperative society, interest charge, land acquisition method, and ease of getting loan. Other factors that negatively influenced decisions include farming as major occupation, household savings, household size, and distance of farmers’ home to source of credit. Proprietor withdrawal decisions were positively influenced by household level variables like taking farming as major occupation, payment of school fees for children of farmers, and amount of credit so far repaid by a farm household. Other factors namely household size, being member of cooperative society or savings group, interest charges on loan, off-farm income, and household savings had negative influences on proprietor withdrawal decisions. We recommended that small-scale farmers should not borrow their start-up capital from outside their households but as their farm businesses stabilize, they could decide to take loans from outside to cover their working capital and/or expand their farms and be prepared to repay such loans according to contractual agreements.

The main purpose of this paper is to identify the amount of investments required for the establishment of greenhouses, which would ensure quality, productivity and competitiveness of the products concerned. The feasibility of investments for the establishment of permanent greenhouses is based on the following method: development of a budget for investments for the establishment of permanent greenhouses and a budget for cultivation of tomatoes with analysis of the economic performance. Based on the above mentioned, it can be stated that permanent greenhouses are fit for growing a wide range of vegetables in one or two cycles, for obtaining homogeneous crops by size and quality with high productivity per hectare, which contributes to higher cost efficiency and state subsidies for entrepreneurs.

The aim of this paper is to analyze and compare the evolution of specialized COP, horticulture, dairy and mixed Romanian farms. The research of this evolution is a very important step in understanding the elements that can affect the modernization process of our agriculture. For accomplishing the research we utilized the data for 2007-2009 periods from Farm Accountancy Data Network (FADN) which collect information from different types of specialized farms. The main results revealed the following: the net farm income had increased during 2007-2009 only in mixed crop and mixed livestock farms; work productivity was higher in COP farms but increased the most in livestock farms; the productivity ratio was higher in COP farms; the solvability had dropped during 2007-2009 period; even with higher liquidity, mixed crop farms present a reduction of this ratio. In conclusion, the specialized farms present, along with the increase of their rate of specialization a better financial stability and an improvement in work productivity, but only the mixed farms show an improvement in net income.

The objective of this study is to enhance understanding on how a firm can generate value for its customers using a competitive advantage strategy by accumulating credible attributes to its products. There are certain product attributes that customers can only perceive. In the case of agricultural food products, the customers’ consciousness for safe, natural and organic products has enriched the perceived value of the product. To explore the relationship between the credence attributes and attitude of the customers for the agricultural food, a survey questionnaire has been administered to consumers of agricultural food products in the different regions of Punjab, Pakistan. The data analysis has been conducted using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) to investigate the desired relationship in that particular region of the country. It can be concluded that the trust of customer is now very much depending on the presence of credence attribute that customer cannot describe but evaluate during the purchase of food items.

The American and Romanian house market has imposed harmonious and comfortable living in ecological houses whose building does not affect the environment. The implementation of modern and efficient building of long-term sustainable houses has resulted in a new ecological building technology by the Wood Framing System which is developed and applied on a large scale in the US. This system is a cheap and accessible method to build houses and preserve them in time, as well as provide all the comfort demands. Also, the houses built within this system are adapted to any architecture style (traditional, contemporary, and futurist).The house structures built within the Wood Framing System are conspicuous through the optimum use of the wooden material, resistance, stability, ductility, low weight which thus reduces the earthquake impact, durability, high thermal comfort, competitive price. At the same time, the building time on the site is up to 70% lower, compared with the brick-based houses.Within the framing system, a wooden-structure house provides important advantages, and thus has become of interest on the Romanian market.

The paper studied the impact of the financial accounting principles on the management accounting. There are similarities and differences between the financial accounting and management accounting. The differences are numerous, but in the present paper we are more interested in similarities that are very deep. Not accidentally, in other accounting systems, two types of accounting information form one functional, integrated circuit (accounting monism in U.S.A. or accounting systems of compromise between the accounting monism and dualism). Since there is not only one accounting system, but a set of accounting systems, the accounting principles are not absolute, but relative. This relativity is given by the assumed objectives of the accounting.

In this article are presented the researches made in order to obtain protein biomass with the aid of lactic bacteria grown on an economically medium, achieved by using secondary products from the winery: marc and wine yeast. Therefore, there were cultivated two strains of Lactobacillus sp. on five different growth medium. The protein biosynthesis and evolution of lactic fermentation were monitored by determining the optical density (OD) of the culture at a wavelength λ = 600 nm and by counting the colony forming units (CFU) by serial dilutions and seeding on plates and by determination of lactic acid obtained. The results showed that the fermentation medium represented by diffusion solution of the marc, enriched with peptone is economically profitable compared to other culture media containing peptone, yeast extract, glucose, minerals, amino acids and vitamins presented in the literature.
