Its pollution represents a serious threat not only to human health but also to the surrounding ecology. Water pollution problems were aggravated in the era of COVID-19. Approximately 80% of global diseases are waterborne, and polluted aquatic environments have been linked to the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which causes the disease COVID-19. Understanding the fate of this virus in aquatic environments like water and wastewater is critical. SARS-CoV-2 may be adsorbed on charged colloidal particles and this process probably depends on the pH of the medium. Other parameters that may influence this process include sorptive interaction with solid particles in soils, aquatic environments and sewage sludge. There are several areas of research that need to be investigated regarding the relationship between SARS-CoV-2 and the transmission of COVID-19 to aqueous environments, including indirect relationships between different aquatic environments (e.g., groundwater, drinking water and wastewater) and outbreaks of COVID-19. Different pathways and the fate of SARS-CoV-2 in water, wastewater and groundwater and subsequent human exposures also need to be determined. These issues will be explored in this review.The National Information and Documentation Centre (NIDOC), Academy of Scientific Research and Technology(ASRT)Journal of Sustainable Agricultural Sciences2536-957146420201201Whey Based Culture Media for The Production of Selenium Nanoparticles Rich Product by Three Lactic Acid Bacterial Strains758810094110.21608/jsas.2020.28067.1217ENMohsen AbdelazizZommaraDepartment of Dairy Science, Faculty of Agriculture, Kafrelsheikh University, Kafr El-Sheikh, Egypt0000-0002-1090-5570MayadaOmranFood Technology Research Institute, Agriculture Research Centre, Giza, EgyptShadyEl-GhaishDepartment of Dairy Science, Faculty of Agriculture, Kafrelsheikh University, Egypt0000-0002-3798-7756Abeer FouadZayanFood Technology Research Institute, Agriculture Research Centre, Giza, EgyptJournal Article20200416The ability of three LAB strains namely, L. brevis, L. plantarum and P. acidilactici to grow and produce SeNPs in MRS or whey media supplemented with 100 or 200 ppm of Se(IV) as sodium selenite (Na2SeO3) was investigated. The presence of Se(IV) in the media retarded the bacterial growth in the first six hours of incubation thereafter, the bacterial growth gradually increased up to 72 hr. P. acidilactici was more tolerable to the inhibitory effect of Se(IV) than the other two strains. Although MRS media was more suitable for the growth of the three LAB strains, as estimated by the reduction of media pH and increase of absorbance compared to whey media, both media showed significantly similar conversion rate (98-100%) of Se(IV) to SeNPs at the end of the incubation period (72 hr). L. brevis, produced smaller SeNPs (125.7 nm) followed by L. plantarum (140.7 nm) and P. acidilactici (176.6 nm). The obtained data demonstrate the possibility of using the whey as a source of low-cost culture media for the production of milk whey based product rich in SeNPs with the assistant of the environmentally friendly LAB for different usage, i.e. as a feed supplement for livestock production.The National Information and Documentation Centre (NIDOC), Academy of Scientific Research and Technology(ASRT)Journal of Sustainable Agricultural Sciences2536-957146420201201Quality of Probiotic Gouda Cheese as a Functional Food899710094310.21608/jsas.2020.28512.1221ENNahedElwahshDairy Research Department, Food Technology Research Institute, Agricultural Research Center, Giza, Egypt.Amany M.El-DeebDairy Research Department, Food Technology Research Institute, Agricultural Research Center, Giza, Egypt.Journal Article20200422Gouda cheese was made from cow's milk inoculated with a cheese starter culture ( CSC ) without ( the control C) and with partial replacement of cheese milk with buffalo's milk ( 25%).

A total of 150 7-day old unsexed Japanese quail chicks were randomly distributed to five dietary treatments of thirty birds to a treatment. Each treatment was replicated three times with ten birds to a replicate. Five isocaloric and isonitrogenous diets were formulated. CrMet was added to the basal diet at five different levels being 0, 200, 400, 600, and 800 mg /kg diet, respectively. CrMet supplementation improved body weight (BW) at 6 weeks of age by 2.3%. compared with those on diet 1 (control). Feed intake (FI) increased gradually by increasing CrMet levels in the diets compared with the control group and the group fed on 200 mg CrMet /kg diet. The best (P≤ 0.05) value of feed conversion ratio (FCR) was noticed in group fed 600 mg CrMet /kg as compared with other experimental groups. CrMet improved (P ≤ 0.01) the thymus, heart and testes weights, white blood cell (WBC) counts, hemoglobin (Hb), Packed cell volume (PCV%), and monocytes of growing Japanese quail. Also, Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and total antioxidant capacity, while albumin, albumin/globulin ratio, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), total lipids, cholesterol, triglycerides, and lipid peroxide concentrations contents decreased significantly (P ≤ 0.01). In summary, inclusion of CrMet in growing quail diets may exert beneficial effects on growth parameters, blood constituents, immunity, and anti-oxidative properties.The National Information and Documentation Centre (NIDOC), Academy of Scientific Research and Technology(ASRT)Journal of Sustainable Agricultural Sciences2536-957146420201201An analytical study of the economic effects of the encroachment on agricultural lands in Dakahlia Governorate26327610094010.21608/jsas.2020.27833.1215ENM.FawazAgricultural Economic Dept., Fac. of Agric., Kafrelsheikh UniversityRoshdy ShawkeyEladawyDepartment of agricultural economics,faculty of agriculture,kafrelshrikh unversity , egyptAl.Al-NufailyAgricultural Resarch Center,

In addition to subsidies for food, commodities and bread support has doubled about 20 times, despite the total support doubling about 67.8 times, this may necessary correcting the support path and reaching the support for the best. because decreasing percentage of food support from about 63% of the total support to about 19% of the total support during the periodThe National Information and Documentation Centre (NIDOC), Academy of Scientific Research and Technology(ASRT)Journal of Sustainable Agricultural Sciences2536-957146420201201Economic Efficiency Indications for the Beans in Egypt and Sharkia Governorate40742014111510.21608/jsas.2021.52096.1261ENTahany SalehMohamed BayoumiAgricultural Economics Research Institute - Agricultural Research CenterAlaaNeamaAgricultural Economics Research Institute - Agricultural Research CenterJournal Article20201203The study aimed to identify the current status of beans production in Egypt and Sharkia Governorate. The study found that there is an annual decrease in the cultivated area and the total production of beans in Egypt, were -7% . There is an annual increase in the food gap of beans was 9%. There is an annual increase in the total costs per and the net yield of 12%. Once of most important factors affecting the production of the bean crop in the study sample were: the amount of seeds, the number of workers, and the value of pesticides. The costs of producing an feddan of beans was 11369.44 LE, the total revenue was 14924.52 LE. The net return was 3555.08 LEs, the ratio of revenue to costs was 1.31, the profitability of the invested pound was 0.31 LE. Ones of important problems facing bean growers are: Production inputs are high in value, plants are affected by Holoparasites and diseases, pesticides may not be available in agricultural societies. The study recommends the necessity of increasing the production of beans by growing them in the cultivated lands, and the crop is loaded onto other winter crops. Production requirements must be available in agricultural societies, contract farming policy must be applied, or the Government must set a price for the beans before planting them, so that the farmer guarantees an appropriate price for his crop, and also control must be tightened on pesticides in the local marketThe National Information and Documentation Centre (NIDOC), Academy of Scientific Research and Technology(ASRT)Journal of Sustainable Agricultural Sciences2536-957146420201201An Analytical Study of Egyptian Orange and Competition for External Markets42143315484310.21608/jsas.2021.51512.1262ENAlaa AliNeamaAgricultural Economics Research Institute, Agricultural Research Center, EgyptMohamed IbrahimRaafatAgricultural Economics Research Institute, Agricultural Research Center, EgyptJournal Article20201205The importance of competitiveness in maximizing the benefit of the features offered by the global economy and the reduction of its negatives, and the global competitive report indicates that small States are more able to take advantage of the concept of competitiveness from large countries. The problem of study was in the small production of junior traveler despite the far flexible areas of the Republic and although the climate in the Arab Republic of Egypt is characterized by many other countries competing for us. The strategic location of the Republic is qualified for export to all countries of the world easily and without imposing extra charges for the shipping or transport process. The aim of studying me to know some of the competitiveness of the export of Egyptian citizens and study the centimeter of the overall industrial competition for the oral Egyptian orange. The study was adopted on published and unpublished secondary data, published data from the Internet and the International Trade Organization. The study was adopted in the analysis and viewing of the results on the desired and quantum of al-Asi and al Qa'i al-Asi, as well as to use some statistical and statistical indicators such as the contrast analysis, relative importance estimates, the time period of time, the factual differences and growth rate, as well as some competitiveness indicators. The results of the study indicate 1. The General Index to the Stability In the amount of Egyptian export of orange exports is about 4.252%. Which indicates the extension of the amount of Egyptian orange exports. 2. Calculate the export efficiency of the Orange Transport in 2018 showed that about 189.05%. 3. The high-ratio of the assessment of the Egyptian orange competition is exposed to the OSA, which is about 20.445
