Esta pesquisa teve por objetivo principal analisar o impacto econômico das Áreas de Preservação Permanente (APP), bem como os conflitos de uso dessas áreas em propriedades bananicultoras no Município de Luís Alves, Santa Catarina, considerando-se a implementação do Código Florestal Brasileiro (Lei 4.771/65). A base metodológica provém da economia agrícola, de técnicas de manejo de culturas agrícolas, da gestão ambiental, do sensoriamento remoto e dos sistemas de informações geográficas. Foram consideradas 15 propriedades rurais, tendo como atividade principal a ba nanicultura. Utilizou-se uma planilha para coleta de dados, localização e distribuição das áreas de atividade nas propriedades. A partir dessas informações associadas a informações de imagens de satélite, geraram-se mapas de uso do solo, de limites de propriedades e de APPs. As informações foram organizadas num Sistema de Informações Geográficas - SIG, utilizando o software ARCVIEW 9.1. As propriedades foram analisadas em três grupos (I, II e III), conforme a área de lavoura de banana e investimentos em benfeitorias, máquinas e implementos. Realizou-se uma análise de impacto econômico sobre as propriedades em função da implementação das APPs. Com a pesquisa, percebeu-se que haverá redução da renda líquida das propriedades rurais de 38,58%, 27,65% e 40,21% para os Grupos I, II e III, respectivamente, com a adequação das APPs para a média das propriedades bananicultoras analisadas.

A irrigação é de grande importância para a produção de alimentos, e acredita-se que ela seja responsável por boa parte da produção agrícola mundial, mas é grande consumidora de água doce, principalmente na irrigação por aspersão. O objetivo desta pesquisa é avaliar a redução do custo da energia elétrica para irrigação, por meio de sistema automatizado de controle de velocidade em pivô central instalado em encosta. Para tal, foi dimensionado um pivô central com raio de 56,4 metros com 10 emissores com pressão de serviço de 137,8 kPa, representando uma área irrigada de 1,3 ha, e a lâmina bruta de irrigação adotada foi de 10 mm dia-1. Posteriormente, realizaram-se cálculos para determinar as pressões em cada emissor, para as condições de 0; 10; 20 e 30% de declividade média do terreno. Posteriormente, foi montado um protótipo do pivô central em tamanho reduzido, com 6,3 metros de comprimento, com 10 emissores. Foi utilizado um conjunto motobomba de 2,21 kW (3cv), onde as perdas de cargas em cada emissor eram realizadas por meio de registros inseridos na linha lateral. A automação e o controle de velocidade implementada no protótipo possibilitaram a redução dos gastos em energia elétrica entre 18% e 52%. A automação desenvolvida mostrou-se viável e capaz de responder com agilidade a qualquer mudança de pressão.

The purpose of this doctoral thesis is to widen and develop our theoretical frameworks for discussion and analyses of feedback practices in management accounting, particularly shedding light on its formal and informal aspects. The concept of feedback in management accounting has conventionally been analyzed within cybernetic control theory, in which feedback flows as a diagnostic or comparative loop between measurable outputs and pre-set goals (see e.g. Flamholtz et al. 1985; Flamholtz 1996, 1983), i.e. as a formal feedback loop. However, the everyday feedback practices in organizations are combinations of formal and informal elements. In addition to technique-driven feedback approaches (like budgets, measurement, and reward systems) we could also categorize social feedback practices that managers see relevant and effective in the pursuit of organizational control. While cybernetics or control theories successfully capture rational and measured aspects of organizational performance and offer a broad organizational context for the analysis, many individual and informal aspects remain vague and isolated. In order to discuss and make sense of the heterogeneous field of interpretations of formal and informal feedback, both in theory and practice, dichotomous approaches seem to be insufficient. Therefore, I suggest an analytical framework of formal and informal feedback with three dimensions (3D’s): source, time, and rule. Based on an abductive analysis of the theoretical and empirical findings from an interpretive case study around a business unit called Division Steelco, the 3Dframework and formal and informal feedback practices are further elaborated vis-á-vis the four thematic layers in the organizational control model by Flamholtz et al. (1985; Flamholtz 1996, 1983): core control system, organizational structure, organizational culture, and external environment. Various personal and cultural meanings given to the formal and informal feedback practices (“feedback as something”) create multidimensional interpretative contexts. Multidimensional frameworks aim to capture and better understand both the variety of interpretations and their implications to the functionality of feedback practices, important in interpretive research.

Resumo:O leite informal é reconhecido como o produto comercializado sem inspeção. Avaliou-se a qualidade microbiológica, constituintes nutricionais e presença de substâncias inibidoras do crescimento bacteriano em 100 amostras informais de leite de vacas, comercializadas na região sudoeste do estado de São Paulo, Brasil. Verificou-se que 77% da Contagem de Células Somáticas (CCS) e 86% da Contagem Bacteriana Total (CBT) das amostras estavam em desacordo com os valores máximos exigidos pela Instrução Normativa 62 do MAPA. Identificaram-se teores em desacordo para sólidos totais (36%), proteína (23%), gordura (38%), extrato seco desengordurado (43%) e nitrogênio uréico (73%). Em 59% das amostras detectou-se a presença de resíduos de inibidores do crescimento bacteriano. Isolaram-se 240 linhagens de micro-organismos com predomínio de enterobactérias, estreptococos, estafilococos e fungos. O leite informal é comercializado na região sem as mínimas condições de higiene e oferece riscos a saúde pública, além de representar sério problema sócio-econômico para região.

This thesis strived to find out which informal learning (IL) mechanisms are used the most by the respondents. Additionally, the goal was to know more about the respondents as informal learners and what could explain possible differences. The target was to resolve whether informal learning explains differences in individual performance or, do some other explanations for success exist. Informal learning was to be made more visible, since many are unaware of it. Relevant IL mechanisms that the interviewees could explain were selected for this thesis. The theory on informal learning was presented and some additional informal learning mechanisms were included: Underlying learning theories, internal and external learning resources, as well as some sport related informal learning mechanisms. Various scholars have explained these terms. The final results of this thesis relate to business context, but sport is at the scope of my research. The target group consisted of nine individuals in team sports that were considered as high performers (good/successful). Hence, also the concept of high performance was clarified with competence, expertise and talent literature. The study is qualitative and face-to-face interviews were chosen. The data was analyzed with Grounded Theory principles and theory elaboration. This thesis pointed out similarities and differences between the respondents´ answers (good/successful, inexperienced/experienced). Thus, the analysis clarified that there are different attitudes to learning and different learner profiles in sports context. Also, it became clear that some informal learning mechanisms are more used than others. Secondly, based on the most crucial differences, Typology of Talentum was formulated based on Le Deist & Winteron´s (2005, 39) Typology of holistic competence. Some variables of informal learning seemed to constitute the Meta-competence of Typology that ultimately causes the differences in individual performance and success. The results can be transferred to business context because meta-competence is transferable by nature.

The purpose of this research was to study how management trainee program participants experienced the program with respect to their learning and competence development. Additionally, the purpose was also to examine what the trainees learned and how the learning occurred. Furthermore, factors affecting learning in the workplace were examined. The theoretical framework of this research was formed utilizing individual competence and informal learning frameworks. Research was conducted as a single case study and data was gathered by thematic interviews. The results of this research indicate that the trainees experienced the program as a good method for learning the overall picture of the organization and its business. Regarding competence development, especially knowledge- and cognitive competence categories were developed during the program. The best learning outcomes were achieved through learning by doing, in co-operation with others, and learning from others. The results indicate that the planning of the program and its structure have a significant effect on learning. Furthermore, a sufficient level of challenge was experienced as being important for the quality of the learning as well.

Para fornecer dados sobre a influência climática e a forma de comercialização sobre carotenóides de vegetais, este estudo pesquisou o conteúdo de alfa e beta-caroteno e o valor de vitamina A de sete hortaliças (batata-doce, cenoura, moranga, pimentão, quiabo, tomate e vagem), na cidade de Viçosa (MG), utilizando a Cromatografia Líquida de Alta Eficiência. Compararam-se hortaliças comercializadas nos mercados formal (mercados locais) e informal (feira livre) durante primavera, verão e outono. A cenoura apresentou os teores mais elevados de alfa e beta-caroteno (31,17 e 58,18 µg/g, respectivamente), seguida pela moranga (4,33 e 23,16 µg/g, respectivamente), enquanto a batata-doce apresentou o teor mais reduzido de beta-caroteno (0,51 µg/g). O valor de vitamina A variou conforme o perfil de alfa e beta-caroteno. Com exceção da cenoura e do quiabo, não houve influência significativa do local de comercialização sobre o conteúdo de carotenóides. A variação do conteúdo de carotenos nas estações do ano foi inexpressiva, sendo que apenas o pimentão apresentou valores significativamente diferentes. Porções de 100 g das hortaliças analisadas fornecem entre 3 e 78% da recomendação de vitamina A.

The purpose of this research was to evaluate the quality of propolis produced and commercialized informally in São Paulo State through physicochemical analyses of ethanolic extracts of propolis (EEP). Thus, 40 samples of in nature propolis, provided by beekeepers from 32 towns, were analyzed. The EEP were prepared in a proportion of 30% (w/v), and the physicochemical tests were performed according to the Technical Regulation of Propolis Identity and Quality. The pH of each EEP sample was also evaluated. Regarding the dry extract, it was observed that 80% of the samples meet the minimum requirements established by the Brazilian legislation. With regard to the oxidizing property, 67.5% of EEP were below the maximum time allowed for oxidation. With regard to the solubility in lead acetate, 97.5% of the samples showed positive results, whereas no sample produced a negative result in terms of solubility in sodium hydroxide. Regarding the concentration of flavonoids, 95% of the samples produced results consistent with the minimum value allowed, and regarding the phenolic compounds, all samples were in accordance with the legislation. The EEP pH was slightly acidic. Therefore, it can be concluded that most EEP is consistently in accordance with the Brazilian legislation, which suggests that good quality propolis is produced by those beekeepers.
