“…This was supported by the home-based exercise program proposed by the Government of China, which only included one item related to speed-agility training ( 29 ). In addition, the available space for home-based exercise is very limited which reduces the training options for enhancing speed-agility ( 31 ). Therefore, the growth rate of the speed-agility function decreased during the COVID-19 school closure.…”

“…This may not always be possible due to the limited space available at home. Thus, it was not easy for the children to perform the balancing exercise that requires large space and specific equipment such as a balance beam ( 31 ). The previous study also found that adolescent football players need to focus on balance training to prevent injury in the restart period after the COVID-19 pandemic because home-based training during the COVID-19 pandemic was insufficient for the football players ( 27 ).…”

BackgroundSocial distancing and school closures during the COVID-19 pandemic reduced the physical activities of the preschool children living in China. However, the effects of home-based exercise on the physical fitness of Chinese preschool children during COVID-19 school closures are still unknown. This study aimed to investigate the effects of home-based exercise on the physical fitness of Chinese preschool children during COVID-19 school closure.MethodsIn this retrospective analysis, data from 1,608 Chinese preschool children (aged 3–5.5 years) in a second-tier city of Guangdong Province of China (Zhongshan city) were extracted from three successive National Physical Fitness Measurement (NPFM) from 2019 to 2021. NPFM consists of weight, height, and six subtests of physical fitness including 10-m shuttle run test (SRT), standing long jump (SLJ), balance beam walking (BBW), sit-and-reach (SR), tennis throwing (TT), and double-leg timed hop (DTH) tests. The change differences or change ratios of all the items in NPFM between any two successive years from 2019 to 2021 were compared. The exercise profiles about home-based and outdoor exercise before, during, and after COVID-19 school closure were obtained from 185 preschool children via retrospective telephone survey.ResultsBetween 2019 and 2021, 1,608 preschool children were included in this study. We observed larger changes in SLJ, SR, TT, and DTH tests during school closure than after school closure. But the children showed lower reduction rates in the completion time of SRT and BBW. During school closure, higher change ratios in SLJ and TT were observed in the children primarily participating in home-based exercise than those primarily participating in outdoor exercise. However, no statistical differences were observed in the changes in SRT and BBW between home-based and outdoor training groups.ConclusionThe home-based exercise program might be an alternative approach to improve the physical fitness of preschool children during COVID-19 school closure, but could not be beneficial to speed-agility and balance functions. A specific guideline geared toward a home-based exercise program during the COVID-19 outbreak is highly needed.

“…SWOT matrix is a matching matrix for the company's internal and external strategic factors [29] so that a strategy is obtained that allows the company to be carried out based on the development of four strategies, namely aggressive, conservative, defensive, and competitive [31]. SWOT consists of Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats [32,33]. Strengths and weaknesses are known as internal factors, and opportunities and threats are external factors [34].…”

During the pandemic, the Indonesian authorities are committed to limiting the social and economic mobility of the community. One of the activities carried out is online purchases. With changes in people's behavior towards meeting online needs, small and medium-sized enterprises will be able to use information technology in making online marketing of products sold to consumers. The object of this research is batik small and medium-sized enterprises in Indonesia. At this time, many batik small and medium-sized enterprises have used online marketing, but it has not been said to be optimal. It can be shown that there are still many batik small and medium-sized enterprises that have experienced a fifthly percent decline in sales during the pandemic. Therefore, batik small and medium-sized enterprises must be able to increase sales capacity through online marketing to increase profitability. The purpose of the study is to identify both internal and external factors in order to instigate a better strategy to improve the firm’s market. This research uses qualitative and quantitative methods. The method used is to integrate the Strength Weakness Opportunities Threats and Analytic Hierarchy Process methods to increase profitability. These results are in the context of the Strengths Opportunity strategy, which includes analyzing the potential of digital marketing and developing innovative business models, that batik small and medium-sized enterprises must expand the market by maximizing online marketing and increasing quality and creativity in creating product content online. This research found that a prominent strategy for developing the batik business is the strength and opportunity strategy that takes advantage of strengths and opportunities in order to increase competitiveness.

“…However, considering that each of the selected criteria has a different weight for the purpose of preparing land suitability maps, it would be better to weigh them individually by using the AHP method. The main benefits of the AHP are its capability for checking and reducing the inconsistency of judgments by experts, simplicity and flexibility, applicability for qualitative information and so on 24,25 …”

“…The main benefits of the AHP are its capability for checking and reducing the inconsistency of judgments by experts, simplicity and flexibility, applicability for qualitative information and so on. 24,25 Due to the advantages and abilities of the multi-criteria decision analysis and the fuzzy-AHP approaches for planning the use of different lands and evaluation of the development of soil quality indices, 26,27 the aims of this study are to determine suitable locations for ruby vine cultivation using fuzzy-AHP methods. Also, the time of harvest and export of this fruit in other parts of the study area is determined using the growing degree-days (GDD) maps.…”

BACKGROUND In this study, the quality of land suitability for vine cultivation in south‐western Iran was evaluated and a land suitability map for vine cultivation was developed using the fuzzy‐analytic hierarchy process (AHP). The best harvest time of vines was determined based on the relationship between total soluble solids (TSS) and titratable acidity (TA) with fruit colour (red, green, and blue or RGB) in ten points and also the growing degree‐days (GDD) maps from April to December. The relationship between GDD and effective parameters in vine cultivation was determined using principal component analysis (PCA) and Pearson correlation methods. RESULTS The results illustrated that the maximum temperature and relative humidity (RH) have the greatest effect on vine cultivation and its yield (weight 0.24). The results of the land suitability map showed that central regions have better conditions for growing vines (32%). The measurements of TA and TSS depicted that vines of the northern parts have higher TA and lower TSS and there is a significant relationship between them and fruit colour. The results of GDD maps showed that the harvest time of ruby vine and Gezel‐azm is July and August, respectively. Also, the temperature (Tmean, Tmax and Tmin), wind speed, and GDD were the most important parameters to determine the best location for vine cultivation. CONCLUSION Determining land suitability for cultivation, the best harvest time, the time of grape ripening, and following the exact time of export and import of vine has a vital role to increase its productivity and services. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.
