خوبیوں کے اظہار کا مرقع۔۔۔منان لطیف

خوبیوں کے اظہار کا مرقع۔۔۔ منان لطیفؔ

                انسان جس امر کی کوشش کرتا ہے ،اس میں مسلسل محنت کے ساتھ جستجو اور خوب سے خوب تر کی لگن کی بدولت کامیا بی حاصل کر لیتا ہے ۔ہمارے تعلیمی نظام کی یہ خامی رہی ہے کہ طلبہ کسی بھی مضمون میں حادثاتی طور داخلہ لیتے ہیں اور پھر محنت سے جی چراتے ہیں ۔تعلیمی اداروں میں ایسا نظام بھی رائج نہیں کہ طلبہ اپنے مضمون میںعملی مہارت اور دسترس رکھتے ہوں ۔اس لیے بہت کم طالب علم اپنے مضمون سے انصاف کر پاتے ہیں ۔منان لطیفؔ کا شمار ایسے طلبہ میں ہوتا ہے جو ذوق و شوق ،محنت و لگن اور تلاش و جستجو کو اپنا شعار بنا کر اپنے مضمون میں دسترس حاصل کرنے میں منہمک رہتے ہیں ۔ان کا جوش و جذبہ اوائل میں ہی جھلکنے لگتا ہے اور محنت رنگ لانے لگتی ہے ۔چنانچہ ان کے ذوق و شوق کی پہلی جھلک ’’گرد شِ خاک‘‘کی صورت میں دیکھی جا سکتی ہے ۔جو اس کے بعض گُن اور خوبیوں کے اظہار کا مرقع ہے ۔منان لطیفؔ کو شاعری سے شغف ہے اور نثر پر مہارت ہے ۔چونکہ شاعری کے لیے طبع مناسب کے ساتھ ساتھ بعض تکنیکی امور بھی شامل حال ہوتے ہیں ،اس لیے ابتدائی طور پر نثری اظہاریے یا نثری نظم کی طرف توجہ کومعیوب خیال  نہیں  کر نا چاہیے ۔ اصل مقصد اظہارِ ذات ہے جو انسان کوکئی نفسیاتی اور معاشرتی عوارض سے محفوظ رکھتا ہے ۔اگر اس کی نظموں کا مطالعہ کیا جائے تو بعض مواقع سے قطع نظر اس کا جوہر کھلتا دکھائی دے گا ۔لفاظی ،لفظ تراشی ،لفظی بازی گری اور تراکیب سے واضح ہو گا کہ زمینِ ادب سے نکلنے کو بے تاب یہ ننھا پودا چھتناور درخت بننے کی بھرپور اہلیت رکھتا ہے...

The Health and Sanitary Status of Mamanwa Indigenous People in Selected Areas in Caraga Region

This study aims to determine the health and sanitary status of the Mamanwa indigenous people in selected areas in CARAGA Region. The respondents were the Mamanwa people who are residents of Cantugas, Mainit, Surigao del Norte community, and Kitcharao, Agusan del Norte community. The study used descriptive research design utilizing questionnaire and personal interview in gathering the data. The total population of the respondents is 69 and respondents from both communities were selected based on simple random design.   The study used percentage and mode/majority criterion, weighted mean, and Kendal-tau correlation. The findings showed that in the extent of health and sanitation education which was divided into three factors: Factor 1 which is the regularity of adopting health and sanitation practices shows a mean rating described as always except for item 9. Factor 2 was about exposure to health and sanitation campaign and education show a mean rating of sometimes. Factor 3 is about awareness on health and sanitation show a mean rating of sometimes. On the economic status of Mamanwa people which was the (factor 1) economic status of Mamanwa parents, 75.4% of the Mamanwa parents send their children to school and 64.9% of Mamanwa parents’ allocated budget for clothing and other personal necessities. On social status of the location (factor 2), only 35.1% of the respondents said that they have proper waste disposal and segregation.  The results showed that Mamanwa children regardless of sex and age were undernourished and there is a significant relationship between the regularity of adopting health and sanitation practices with hygiene on health care where it had an R-value of 0.47 and 0.35 respectively. Lastly, only economic factor on the social status of the location had a significant relationship on the health status of Mamanwa children in terms of BMI which had an R-value -0.20 and p-value 0.049.

Agricultural Accounting and Information System for Farmers

Context: E-agriculture is modern form of agriculture that integrates information and communication technology (ICT) into agricultural practices. The objective of e-agriculture is to fulfill increasing food demand with least input resources. E-agriculture achieves this goal by using the automated systems to control the field operations and provides necessary information to agriculturists efficiently. In literature, various information systems have been proposed, however such systems are expensive for small land farmers. Moreover, such systems are not easy to use and information presented is hard to be interpreted by farmers. Pakistan is an agricultural country and agriculture contributes 21% to the GDP of Pakistan. Therefore, agricultural reforms are very important to provide timely information to farmers and provide them with tools that can help them in managing agricultural activities especially agricultural finance management. Objectives: The aim of this research was to propose a web based information system by systematically analyzing the existing literature on e-agriculture and identifying the information and accounting issues of local farmers. The system could provide accurate, necessary and timely information to small land farmers and could support them in managing agricultural finance. Method: To achieve research objectives a multi method research approach was adopted. In this approach, a combination of empirical research methods were used that complement each other. At first, a mapping study was conducted to investigate evidences available in the existing literature one-agriculture. Secondly, case study in District Pakpattan was conducted to identify the agricultural financial accounting and information issues of local farmers and to resolve these issues by developing a web based system. The system was evaluated by measuring users? satisfaction by customizing Delone and Mclean Information Success (IS) model. Hypotheses were developed and field survey was conducted in rural area of Punjab to collect data. The results were produced and hypotheses were tested by employing regression analysis. Results: From this research, we identified that the research on e-agriculture was introduced in 2003. Various systems were proposed to support farmers in agricultural activities. It was identified that agricultural farms using these systems are getting more profit. However, interfaces of these systems were complex, their cost was high and requires technical expertise therefore adoption rate of these systems was low and they were beyond the reach of small land farmers. The proposed application developed in this research was evaluated through field study. The results showed that famers were very satisfied with system and service quality provided in the proposed application, however information quality was not considered significant. Conclusion: In developed countries automated systems are used to gain high yield, however, in developing countries e-agriculture is still at its initial stage. Farmers are semi-literate and have low digital literacy to use technology. To get full benefits of e-agriculture, there is need to introduce reforms and trainings to local farming community about the use of computer and hand held devices such as mobiles. Also, there is need to provide easy to use information systems with local language support. From this study, we concluded that easy to understand information system especially designed for semi-literate farmers with the support of native language are more likely to be accepted by the farmers? community.
