The 1995 UN Fourth World Conference on Women held in Bejing, China marked a climax of activity surrounding women''s issues on a global scale. It also highlighted significant challenges within both the UN and the women''s movement regarding issues of diversity, representation, democratic parties, and policy implementation. Women''s organizations and movements have played a key role in recognizing and confronting these challenges to enacting more effective and democratic forms of global governance. I argue that these non-governmental groups have spearheaded efforts to ensure Beijing implementation, working locally and transnationally to strengthen the process and future of global governance.

Manure applied in early with warmer temperatures can have higher nitrification rates and nitrogen loss potential, but waiting for cooler conditions in later fall risks an early winter conditions that may prevent application. Nitrate is susceptible to leaching and denitrification, which potentially could be minimized by including a nitrification inhibitor (NI) when applying manure. In this three-year study on corn, nitrapyrin was incorporated into liquid hog manure and applied at various fall timings and in spring. Soil samples were collected in the preceding fall, spring, and post-harvest, and plant nitrogen content, grain and stover were measured in the growing season. The seasonal manure application timing had a greater impact on plant responses than including the inhibitor, with spring manure applications having greater yields. It was found that there was an optimal window in November where fall-applied manure treatments had an economic benefit to being applied with a nitrification inhibitor.
