Title	Participatory Development of Demand-Driven Curriculum for Career-Ready E-Extension Services in Nigeria
Słowa kluczowe	participatory curriculum, career- ready, e- extension services, stakeholders, Nigeria
Key words	participatory curriculum, career- ready, e- extension services, stakeholders, Nigeria
Abstrakt	This paper described and contextualized participatory development of demand-driven curriculum for career-ready e-extension services in Nigeria as introduced by the Sasakawa Africa Fund for Extension Education. The stages of participatory development were participatory need assessment, participatory stakeholders’ workshop and validation among 124 stakeholders selected as key informants in relation to agricultural extension training, delivery, end users and policy makers. The stakeholders were grouped as follows: community leaders and policy makers; extension agencies / organisations / institutions / employers; farmers; input suppliers / marketers / agro-based traders / other value actors; and potential candidate groups. Stakeholder meetings were held separately with different groups three times, and then a combined meeting took place. The aggregated major decisions/consensus were subjected to content analysis using ATLAS.ti. The validation process included reading of each agreed decision to all participants, then participants indicated their agreement or otherwise, which led to either rejection or acceptance of the decision. This paper concludes that participatory curriculum development has enhanced the stakeholders to identify areas of demand-driven training in response to community needs. The stakeholders preferred more online than face-to-face training. The major perceived advantages of e-extension were reduced risk, time and cost effectiveness while infrastructural and human challenges were the perceived challenges that could possibly hinder the smooth running of e extension.

Tytuł	Strategiczne wyzwania w zakresie pomiaru i zarządzania ryzykiem utraty reputacji w bankach
Title	STRATEGIC CHALLENGES IN MEASURING AND MANAGING REPUTATIONAL RISK IN BANKS
Słowa kluczowe	banki, ryzyko utraty reputacji, ryzyko operacyjne
Key words	banks, reputational risk, operational risk.
Abstrakt	Celem artykułu jest przegląd i analiza regulacji nadzorczych oraz dotychczasowych badań w zakresie zarządzania ryzykiem utraty reputacji we współczesnym systemie bankowym ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem metod identyfikacji i pomiaru tego rodzaju ryzyka oraz instrumentów stosowanych w celu jego ograniczania. Zdaniem autora ryzyko utraty reputacji należy definiować jako oddzielny rodzaj ryzyka, jednak ze względu na jego specyficzną naturę nie powinien być on zarządzany odrębnie, ale w sposób zintegrowany z podstawowymi rodzajami ryzyka. Strategicznym postulatem dotyczącym mechanizmów redukcji ryzyka utraty reputacji w systemie bankowym jest zaś ograniczenie ryzyka upadłości dużych, wzajemnie powiązanych ze sobą instytucji poprzez zmniejszenie ich rozmiarów oraz ograniczenie wzajemnych połączeń, a także usprawnienie zarządzania procesem restrukturyzacji i uporządkowanej likwidacji banków.
Abstract	The purpose of the article is to review and analyse supervisory regulations and existing research in the area of reputational risk management in the modern banking system, with particular emphasis on methods for identifying and measuring this type of risk and instruments used to mitigate it. According to the author, reputational risk should be defined as a separate type of risk. However, due to its specific nature, it should not be managed separately, but together with the basic types of risk. The strategic postulate regarding mechanisms to mitigate reputational risk in the banking system is to limit the risk of bankruptcy of large, interrelated institutions by reducing their size and limiting interconnections, as well as improving the management of the efficient resolution of banks.

Key words
Abstrakt	The following research methods are used to achieve this goal: theoretical synthesis, analysis, abstract and logical - to reveal the relationship of the global food crisis in the context of achieving food security goals; interpretation and comparison - to determine the prospects for improving food security; tabular and graphical - for a visual representation of food security in the world. It has been established that food security is an objective necessity for human development. Its provision is a guarantee of regular access of the population to high-quality food necessary for leading an active and healthy life. Taking into account the analysed indicators of food security, reserves have been identified for improving the growth of food security in the strategy of sustainable development of Ukraine and the world. A cumulative interrelated analysis of pandemic and post-pandemic poverty growth, declining profitability, and price differentiation in food security has been conducted. The assessment of divergent changes in the food sector of Ukraine and other countries is carried out taking into account the challenges of the environmental environment. The results of the study on food security can be used in the management of the economy and the agro-industrial sector as one of the goals of sustainable development.

Title	Planned Shape of the CAP 2021-2027 versus Globalisation and Integration Processes
Słowa kluczowe	common agricultural policy, globalisation, integration
Key words	common agricultural policy, globalisation, integration
Abstrakt	The planned CAP reform will determine the capacity of EU agriculture in facing challenges, especially those related to climate change and growing international competition. The aim of the paper is to assess the EC’s reform proposals in the context of globalisation and integration processes. The paper is based on the analysis of the EC’s proposals for the CAP 2021-2027. The results show that the proposed changes in the CAP are limited and they do not ensure significant support for the agricultural sector. They also are not adequately precise to evaluate them. Moreover, the proposed change in the CAP implementation model poses a serious risk of the CAP disintegration, which will not help the EU in its trade talks with other partners and thus can be detrimental to the future of the EU agri-food sector. It seems that the first step to make the CAP more effective is to strengthen its monitoring system.

Słowa kluczowe	megatrendy rozwojowe, KEP, logistyka 4.0, komodyzacja, operator pocztowy
Key words	development megatrends, CEP branch, logistics 4.0, commodization, postal operator.
Abstrakt	Branża pocztowa, której tradycyjnym produktem są list i paczka, traktowana jest obecnie jako część szerszego rynku KEP (kurier, ekspres, paczka). Dla rynku KEP można zidentyfikować zjawiska rozwojowe (megatrendy) mające wpływ na jego funkcjonowanie w dłuższej perspektywie. Wiedza o tych zjawiskach powinna być podstawą każdej decyzji o strategicznym charakterze.Celem opracowania jest usystematyzowanie istoty zmian w otoczeniu branży pocztowej. Niektóre zjawiska w otoczeniu tego rynku już przyczyniły się do komodyzacji (utraty wartości i konieczności redefinicji podstawowych założeń) niektórych rodzajów usług, a w odniesieniu do innych, do ich całkowitego zniknięcia z rynku. Megatrendy w otoczeniu branży pocztowej decydują o tym, że publiczni operatorzy stoją dzisiaj przed koniecznością zmiany modeli funkcjonowania. Być może, w niedalekiej przyszłości, konieczność zmian będzie dotyczyć także paradygmatów zarządzania. Artykuł podejmuje tematykę branży pocztowej z perspektywy wyzwań w zakresie zarządzania, gdzie zauważyć można istotną lukę w polskim piśmiennictwie. Opracowanie ma charakter teoretyczny z aspektami praktycznymi i jest oparty na przeglądzie literatury naukowej oraz popularno-naukowej. W artykule dokonano aktualizacji literatury z punktu widzenia obecnego stanu rzeczy branży pocztowej. Wykorzystano wtórne źródła danych.
Abstract	The postal industry, whose historical product are letter and parcel, is now treated as a part of the wider CEP market (courier, express, parcel). It is possible to identify, for the CEP market, development phenomena (megatrends) affecting its long-term functioning. The knowledge of these phenomena should be the basis for any strategic decision. The aim of the study is to systematize the essence of changes taking place in the environment of the postal industry. Some phenomena, surrounding this market, have already contributed to the commodization (the loss of value and the need to redefine the basic assumptions) of the certain types of services, and in relation to others, to their complete disappearance from the market. Megatrends in the environment of the postal industry decide that public operators face nowadays the necessity to change their operating models. Perhaps, in the near future, the need for a change will also apply to management paradigms. The article addresses the subject of the postal industry from the perspective of management challenges, where one can notice a significant gap in Polish literature. The study has a theoretical character with practical aspects and is based on a review of scientific and popular science literature. The article updates the literature taking into account the current state of the postal industry`s affairs. Secondary data sources were used.

Tytuł	Food aid for the poor – key working tool for protection of food interestsof ukraine’s population
Title
Słowa kluczowe	food interests, protection, subsistence level, food aid, budget, cost multiplier
Key words
Abstrakt	The need to protect the food interests of Ukrainian citizens is conditioned by a number of pressing challenges – insufficient level of income, high growth rates of consumer food prices, excessive level of market concentration, excessive volumes of food exports, which cause a deficit in the domestic market, etc. For a full-scale deployment of the Ukrainian food aid program, it is necessary to preliminarily conduct an experiment. As part of the experiment, we propose to involve low-income citizens in the program, who has a total income not exceeding 130% of the poverty line (subsistence level). According to the statistics of 2017, the protection of food interests needs those households whose average income is less than UAH 2,085 per month – these are household’s first decile group. The average benefit is UAH 284 per person per month. A tentative budget for food aid for all households and the decile group should be UAH 1204.6 million. An increase in food expenditure by 1% will lead to an increase in real GDP of Ukraine by 0.97%. Food expenditures of the population of Ukraine in 2017 amounted to UAH 673539.0 million. Their increase by UAH 1204.6 million, or 0.18%, will cause real GDP growth of 0.17% or UAH 4266.9 million.

Abstrakt	Przemysł spożywczy w Polsce staje wobec wyzwań wynikających z obecnych i przyszłych przemian w gospodarce światowej, m.in. potrzeby optymalizacji procesów wytwórczych, zwiększenia efektywności wykorzystania zasobów, rozwiązania problemów kadrowych, wdrażania innowacji i postępu technicznego. Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie działalności innowacyjnej przedsiębiorstw tego sektora w latach 2010-2016 ze wskazaniem tendencji w tym zakresie. Ocena inwestycji w maszyny i urządzenia miała na celu ocenę stanu i perspektyw wdrażania postępu technicznego. Badania wykazały, że większość podmiotów przemysłu spożywczego jest jeszcze słabo przygotowana do wyzwań nowej gospodarki. Wskazują na to niskie nakłady na działalność innowacyjną przedsiębiorstw, struktura tych nakładów, a także wyniki działalności w badanym okresie. Z badań wynika, że producenci artykułów spożywczych i napojów zwiększyli inwestycje w maszyny i urządzenia w celu poprawy efektywności wykorzystania zasobów i modernizacji parku maszynowego.

Abstrakt	It is established that the Ukrainian agrarian sector in recent years suffered quite serious reformational impacts on the institutional environment of the functioning of economic actors, in particular the influence of regulators on the transformation of agricultural development. It is substantiated that under institutional transformations it is appropriate to understand the changes that occur as part of the creation of new rules of conduct of participants, containing a specific mechanism for ensuring compliance with these rules, as well as improving organizational and economic regulators within the existing set of rules for all participants It is determined that the institutional system is a structured set of interrelated informal rules that determine, on the one hand, a system of incentives for increasing the efficiency of interaction between subjects of the agrarian economy, and, on the other hand, restricts the activities of economic agents, which create a certain framework for implementation their target functions in accordance with the law and public interests.

Title	Carbon Footprint of Beef Cattle in a Conventional Production System: a Case Study of a Large-Area Farming Enterprise in the Wielkopolska Region
Słowa kluczowe	carbon footprint, beef production, emission of greenhouse gases, life cycle assessment, agriculture
Key words	carbon footprint, beef production, emission of greenhouse gases, life cycle assessment, agriculture
Abstrakt	Animal production is a significant source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. One of the major challenges in sustainable management is to mitigate the effects of climate change by reducing GHG emissions. The diversity of animal production systems and accompanying diversification of technological processes, mean that specific production effects can be obtained at different levels of GHG emissions. The aim of the study was to determine the carbon footprint (CF) of beef cattle grown in a conventional system (i.e. indoor confinement). The research was carried out on the beef cattle farm belonging to a large-area enterprise, Długie Stare Ltd. The beef cattle production system consisted of the following subsystems: a basic breeding herd (consisting of suckler cows, replacement heifers and calves up to 6.5 months), breeding heifers, breeding bulls and fattening bulls. The method of life cycle analysis (LCA) in the stages from "cradle-to-farmgate" was used to assess the GHG emissions associated with the production of beef cattle. The average CF in the entire beef cattle production system was 25.43 kg of CO2 kg-1 of live weight of marketed cattle, while in the individual subsystems of basic breeding herd, breeding heifers, breeding bulls and fattening bulls, the CF (after GHG allocation) was: 11.0 kg CO2 eq., 34.30 kg CO2 eq., 27.32 and 25.40 kg CO2 eq., respectively. GHG emissions associated with young calves staying in the cow-calf pairs until weaning (in the period from 0-6.5 months), had a decisive influence on the final CF in each of the subsystems of beef cattle production. The second important factor directly affecting the CF was GHG emissions related to methane (CH4) enteric fermentation and manure management. Knowledge of factors affecting the CF structure allows better identification of critical areas in production processes with high GHG emission potential. Information on the CF of beef cattle and beef meat responds to a wider societal demand for the ecological characteristics of market products, which ultimately contributes to improving their market competitiveness.

Abstrakt	W artykule przedstawiono wybrane kwestie aktualnie poruszane w zakresie zrównoważonego rozwoju w Unii Europejskiej, a związane jednocześnie z sektorem energetycznym. Stąd też została omówiona problematyka zasobooszczędności oraz efektywności energetycznej, produkcji energii z odnawialnych źródeł, czy też wykluczenia społecznego wywołanego brakiem dostępności do źródeł energii po przystępnej cenie. Poza analizą literatury przedmiotu został przedstawiony ranking krajów Unii Europejskiej (UE-28) pod względem poziomu rozwoju sektora energetycznego w kontekście problematyki zrównoważonego rozwoju. W tym celu przeprowadzono wielowymiarową analizę porównawczą przy użyciu wybranych w toku analizy teoretycznej 8 wskaźników dotyczących aspektów społecznych, gospodarczych i środowiskowych związanych z rozwojem sektora energetycznego. Zakres czasowy analizy obejmował 2016 r. (dostępność danych). Źródłem wartości przyjętych zmiennych był Eurostat. Przeprowadzone analizy wykazały, iż najlepszą sytuacją w zakresie sektora energetycznego na tle ogółu przebadanych państw cechowała się Dania.
Abstract	The article presents selected issues currently discussed in the field of sustainable development in the European Union, and related at the same time to the energy sector. Therefore, the issues of resource efficiency and energy efficiency, energy production from renewable sources, or social exclusion caused by the lack of access to affordable energy sources were discussed. In addition to the analysis of the literature on the subject, the ranking of the European Union countries (EU-28) in terms of the level of development of the energy sector in the context of sustainable development was presented. For this purpose, a multidimensional comparative analysis was carried out using 8 indicators selected in the course of theoretical analysis concerning social, economic and environmental aspects related to the development of the energy sector. The time scope of the analysis covered 2016 (data availability). The source of values of the adopted variables was Eurostat. The analyzes carried out showed that the best situation in the energy sector compared to all of the countries surveyed was characterized by Denmark.

Tytuł	TOWARDS SUSTAINABLE AQUACULTURE IN POLAND
Title
Słowa kluczowe	aquaculture, adaptation, sustainability
Key words
Abstrakt	In the late 1980s, inland aquaculture in Poland produced about 20 and 4 thousand tonnes of carp and trout, respectively. In 2016, the total volume of the sector’s production increased to over 35 thousand tonnes, including 18 and 16 thousand tonnes of the two species and above 1 thousand tonnes of another fish. This constitutes 94% of total catches of inland fish and about 15% including sea fishing. Globally, roughly 50% of seafood supply is produced by aquaculture, and farmed fish production exceeds that of farmed beef. The EU’s Blue Growth Strategy identifies aquaculture as a sector which could boost economic growth across Europe. The key challenges in the Polish aquaculture sector is significant production growth to 49 thousand tonnes by 2020 and increasing its competitiveness by using resources more effectively, supporting the market by building distribution chains, improving the quality of products and marketing, as well as increasing contribution to environmental protection.

Tytuł	Wyzwania w zakresie finansowania inwestycji przez przedsiębiorstwa w Polsce
Title	Challenges in the range of investments financing by companies in Poland
Słowa kluczowe	inwestycja, projekt, finansowanie, zarządzanie finansami
Key words	investment, undertaking, financing, project finance, corporate finance
Abstrakt	Celem opracowania jest zaprezentowanie w oparciu o wybrane przykłady uwarunkowań i wynikających z nich wyzwań w zakresie finansowania inwestycji przez przedsiębiorstwa w Polsce. W oparciu o metodę analizy przypadków autorzy wskazują na trudności w realizacji przedsięwzięć inwestycyjnych. Obserwowane w ostatnich latach zmiany w otoczeniu gospodarczym przedsiębiorstw, wywołane takimi procesami jak globalizacja, powszechna informatyzacja, czy też wzrost wpływu rynków finansowych na sferę realną powodują, że podmiotom gospodarczym coraz trudniej jest podejmować i realizować projekty inwestycyjne. Finansowanie tego typu przedsięwzięć, nawet przy zachowaniu powszechnie obowiązujących reguł ich strukturyzowania, nie chroni inwestora danego projektu, jak również podmiotów zapewniających finansowanie dłużne przed stratami. W tej sytuacji niezbędna jest daleko posunięta ostrożność przy konstruowaniu prognoz finansowych, odpowiednie zarządzanie ryzykiem, jak również zdolność do zachowania elastyczności projektu w przypadku wystąpienia istotnych zmian w otoczeniu.
