“…Therefore, more vigorous seeds have greater potential to present high performance even under adverse environmental conditions (Marcos Filho, 2015). A strategy that emphasizes the environmental context can help promote an environment conducive to agricultural development (Rajkamal, Velmurugan & Suryakumar, 2022).…”

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the influence of different concentrations of goatish biofertilizer as an alternative biostimulant on the germination and vigor of pork bean seeds. Theoretical framework: The availability of complementary nutrients via seeds promotes germination and vigor, since they are fundamental factors for the good development of production. Therefore, the use of alternative technologies as a biostimulant promote better formation and development of the plant. Methodology: The research was carried out at the Seed Technology Laboratory of the Federal University of Paraíba. A completely randomized design was used, with treatments at different concentrations of goat biofertilizer, namely: 0% (control), 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%, where they were immersed for 10 minutes. The substrate used was Germiteste paper, where 30 jack bean seeds were distributed and stored at a temperature of 30 °C for 12 hours of light. The variables analyzed were: germination speed index, germination, primary root length, hypocotyl length, width and length of cotyledons and green and dry mass of the variables mentioned above. Results and conclusion: The application of the concentration of 50 and 75% proved to be efficient in the seed germination process and germination speed index. The 25% concentration of goat biofertilizer provided better performance in the morphological characteristics of jack bean seeds. Research implications: The main contributions of the study are in the sense of demonstrating a different methodology as an alternative biostimulant in the germination and vigor of seeds, which can contribute to researchers and family farmers in overcoming seed dormancy, as well as increasing plant growth and development. Originality/value: This study proposes to evaluate the biofertilizer as a biostimulant in the germination and vigor of jack bean seeds as an alternative for taking advantage of the organic residue.

“…Many studies have revealed that absorptive capacity positively effects innovation (Costa & Monteiro, 2018;Duan et al, 2020;Fabrizio, 2009;Zou et al, 2018). Innovation depends heavily on knowledge and absorptive capacity plays a significant role in discovering and exploiting knowledge in companies (Velmurugan et al, 2022).…”

Purpose: This study aims to investigate the relationship between soft lean practices and green innovation in the presence of absorptive capacity as a mediating construct in the manufacturing sector in Jordan, which is thought to be a knowledge-intensive firm affecting the Jordanian economy. Theoretical Framework: Lean practices are gaining popularity in studies and are also seen as a model for innovation, particularly in knowledge-intensive industries. These procedures have grown to be essential to a company's success, particularly in intricate and rapidly changing business environments. Design/methodology/approach: All manufacturing companies doing business in Jordan make up the sample for this study. This industry was chosen because it is a knowledge-intensive industry that is a global innovation driver, setting it apart from other industrial sectors. 145 department heads, professionals, and knowledgeable employees from this company were randomly chosen to make up the study unit of analysis. The questionnaire's items were created using a review of the literature and all of the construct measures that had been tried and true in earlier research. Findings: The results showed that soft lean practices and absorptive capacity are antecedent to green innovation and confirm that there is a significant and direct relationship between soft lean practices and green innovation, and an indirect relationship with absorptive capacity. Research, Practical & Social implications: The analysis of lean practices' effects on green innovation hasn't received as much attention in the literature currently available on business as it has on the examination of lean practices' relationships with innovation and innovative performance. Few empirical studies have examined the moderating role that absorptive capacity plays in the relationship between soft lean practices and green innovation; however, absorptive capacity has been discussed as an intermediate construct in a few prior studies. Originality/value: The findings offer valuable recommendations to managers for improving companies' absorptive capacity and green innovation. As a result, the current study examines the impact of soft lean practices on green innovation by absorptive capacity in the context of Jordan's manufacturing sector, which is home to some of the country's most successful and influential businesses in the country's knowledge-intensive industry.

“…Most business owners need financial support to launch their ventures, whether it be in the form of savings or a regular bank loan. Women who venture into business are not only financially rewarded but also significantly contribute to the growth and development of their nations [Rajkamal, et al, 2022, Huang, et al, 2021. Women own and oversee more than onethird of all firms in the formal sector, while they control the vast majority of enterprises in the unofficial economy.…”

Purpose: Researchers, practitioners, government leaders, as well as other stakeholders keep expressing a great deal of interest mostly in the close connection between economic inclusion with women having entrepreneurship on a both national and international scale. Theoretical framework: The fundamental objective is still to increase women's access to finance so they can engage in entrepreneurship. The latest evidence exploring the connection between women's entrepreneurship as well as financial inclusion has generated an assortment of findings that are more conventional than reality. Design/methodology/approach: This study looked into how financial inclusion affected the functioning of women-owned enterprises in Vellore, Tamilnadu, India. One thousand two thousand seventy-four (1,274) women-owned Small and medium enterprises, Small and Medium Businesses (MSMEs) registered with MSME made up the participants in this investigation, as well as three hundred fifty-seven (357) MSMEs being chosen as such sample size. Findings: The research used structured questionnaires and in-person interviews to collect data. Multiple Regression (Ordinary Least Square Estimate), as well as Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient, were used to examine the data. Findings indicated that the efficiency of women-owned enterprises is positively and significantly impacted by financial inclusion. Research, Practical & Social implications: In hopes of reducing the gender disparity in financial intermediation, it is advised that the administration put laws and legislative regulations in place. Originality/value: Recognizing the crucial role that women-owned businesses play in the country's economic expansion and continue to increase gender diversity to foster an atmosphere of innovation.
