Egle Jotautiene
2021
You are welcome to our III. AGBIOL Conference that is organized by Trakya University. The aim of our conference is to present scientific subjects of a broad interest to the scientific community, by providing an opportunity to present their work as oral or poster presentations that can be of great value for global science arena. Our goal was to bring three communities, namely science, research and private investment together in a friendly environment of Edirne, Turkey in order to share their interests and ideas and to benefit from the interaction with each other but we have to organize as online due to Covid_19 stiuation again. I hope next one we could host you in Edirne. In September 2018, we organized the first AGBIOL Conference with more than 700 scientists and researchers from all over the world with over 800 scientific papers. Due to COVID-19 situation, II. AGBIOL 2020 has organized fully on-line event which was one of the biggest online conferences in recent years in the world with 499 papers and 1133 authors with 333 oral and 166 e-poster presentations from 55 countries. Therefore, this great interest gave ambition to organizers to make it a periodical event then we decided to organize 3 rd one in this year. The Organizing Committee of AGBIOL 2021 considers the health, safety, and security of its conference attendees and community as its top priority. Due to COVID-19 situation, which results in a very difficult travel restriction for most countries and the fact that there is no definite end in sight, with a careful consideration in all aspects, then AGBIOL 2021 has decided to move towards the organization of on-line again but with limited participation. There is a worldwide participation from 44 countries with 422 papers by contributing 1066 authors. Our

Quantitative and chemical traits in broccoli (Brassica oleracea L.var. italica) grown with the use of microbiological fertilizer
Igor Iljovski
2017
The experiment was conducted in order to determine the influence of the microbiological fertilizer Slavol on the yield and chemical traits in broccoli that were produced in open field. It was used the variety Verdija F1 which was grown in Skopje region during three years (2011, 2012, 2013). The treatments were as follows: Ø control - without use of microbiological fertilizer, V-1 - foliar treatment every 7 day with 0,1% solution of Slavol and V-2 - drip irrigation treatment every 2 days with 0,1% solution of Slavol. The following traits were examined: water, total dry matter, ash, total acids, vitamin C, plant fibers, potassium, phosphorus, calcium, magnesium, iron, manganese, nitrogen, protein, glucose and fructose. According the obtained results it can be established that with the use of microbiological fertilizer Slavol the considerable higher yield gave the treatment V-2 (12.3 t/ha) in comparison to control treatment (10.2 t/ha) and treatment V-1 (10.7 t/ha). In relation to chem...

Assessment of effect of fluoride pollution on germination rate, vigor index and fluoride contents in some selected varieties of wheat crop (Triticum aestivum L.)
Momal Nawab
World Journal of Biology and Biotechnology
Wheat being staple food and a source of economy in Pakistan is cultivated on large scale every year. Due to increasing environmental pollution, this crop is being affected directly or indirectly. Fluoride is one of the most toxic pollutants among rest of the environmental pollutants. A pot experiment was conducted to examine the impacts of fluoride toxicity on the seed germination, seedlings growth and F ion accumulation in locally cultivated varieties of wheat crop. In this regards, 5 wheat varieties (Akbar 2019, Anaj 2017, Ujala 2016, Galaxy 2016 and AARI 2011) were sown in green house at Bahauddin Zakaryia University (BZU), Multan, Pakistan by applying five (3 mM, 5mM, 7mM, 9mM and 11mM) treatments of NaF and control (0mM). Germination percentage, vigor index and F accumulation in roots and shoots were considered as parameters of research. Anaj 2017 and Akbar 2019 were exhibiting the highest germination percentage at 3mM (87% and 75%) while at 11 mM only Akbar 2019 showed 13% of...

Diving Deep: Exploring Fluoride in Groundwater—Causes, Implications, and Mitigation
Shihab Uddin
Fluorides in Drinking Water: Source, Issue, and Mitigation Strategies, 2025
Groundwater (GW), which accounts for 97% of the world’s freshwater, is vital for sustaining ecosystems and providing drinking water for millions. However, fluoride (F) contamination in GW poses a significant environmental and public health issue globally. This chapter talks about these important issues and looks at both natural and industrial sources of pollution. It talks about how minerals like fluorite, apatite, cryolite, and amphibole are weathered and used in industries like making bricks and ceramics, smelting aluminum, burning fossil fuels, and making phosphate fertilizer. Factors such as climate change, sedimentary formations, arid regions, and seawater intrusion further exacerbate F levels in GW. High concentrations of F in GW led to severe health risks, including dental and skeletal fluorosis, cognitive impairment, and kidney and thyroid dysfunction. Additionally, F contamination disrupts ecosystems and biodiversity by affecting plants and aquatic life. To mitigate these risks and restore water quality, the chapter discusses various strategies, including natural attenuation, myco-phyco-phyto remediation, membrane filtration, ion exchange, precipitation, and adsorption using materials like activated alumina and biochar. This synthesis of scientific research and practical interventions emphasizes biotechnological approaches and underscores the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration involving fields such as environmental science, public health, and engineering. Effective mitigation measures are essential to protect human health and ensure environmental sustainability. The chapter highlights the need for continued research, proactive management, and policy development to address F contamination in GW comprehensively.

Connection between traditional food products and rural tourism development in Serbia
Vesna Milic
Rural development is crucial for overall national development in Serbia. Rural tourism can play a significant role in achieving sustainable rural development. For that it is necessary to be aware of factors and services that attract tourists to visit a rural area. The paper aims at analyzing connection between tourists’ interest in typical and traditional food products of a rural area and interest for visiting it thus fostering rural tourism development. In particular the paper sheds light on the importance of traditional and typical food products in rural areas attractiveness. The study was carried out in two phases through two questionnaire surveys. In the first phase, with 251 field questionnaires, was examined consumers’ perception and interest in traditional food products, while in the second one, with 70 structured interviews, were analyzed motivations for visiting rural areas. Both questionnaires were conducted in Serbia, in the period from July 2012 to March 2014. Results in...

Agricultural and Rural Development in Serbia: Governance, Policy Cycle and Coordination
Noureddin Driouech
Agriculture plays an important socio-economic role in Serbia in terms of contribution to GDP and employment, especially for almost a half of the population living in rural areas. However, Serbian agriculture and rural areas face many socio-economic, political and governance problems. The paper aims at analyzing governance and coordination of agricultural and rural development (ARD) in Serbia. It is based on an extensive literature review and primary data collected through a questionnaire survey performed in summer 2013 with representatives of 120 public, civil society and international organizations. The survey focused on problems regarding ARD policy cycle (design, implementation, and monitoring &evaluation) and multi-stakeholder and cross-level coordination. The Law on Agriculture and Rural Development sets agricultural policy objectives and provides a general rural policy framework. Many public (national, regional and local), civil society and international organizations are invo...
