Abstract
Desertification is not a modern phenomenon, but the seriousness of this phenomenon has exacerbated and increased in recent times, and the problem of desertification has become a global problem, and it is basically a man-made phenomenon that is exacerbated by climate changes. Soil erosion, erosion, spread of sand dunes, land degradation, low crop productivity, weak capacity of agricultural and pastoral systems, and many social problems. Therefore, it is at the heart of the serious challenges and threats facing sustainable development with far-reaching negative effects on natural resources, the environment, economic and agricultural activity, physical infrastructure, and food security. The research problem is The continuous rise in the ever-increasing and changing human requirements of agricultural and food commodities and the increase in population and the consequent social changes have doubled the need to exploit additional resources to meet food requirements at a time when large areas of land suffer from the problem of desertification, The research aims to know the reasons for the exacerbation of the phenomenon of desertification and its repercussions on the agricultural sector in Iraq, The consequences thereof and the possibilities available for treatment. We assume that human factors exert the strongest influence in the exacerbation of this phenomenon to side Unsustainable Exploitation of Natural Resources The research concluded that desertification is one of the environmental problems that the more they aggravate and increase in severity, The more difficult and costly it will be to treat them financially and technically.
Abstract
The purpose of this research is to analyze the effect of applying the internal control system according to the COBIT5 framework on tax performance. Data was collected from the research sample using the questionnaire form, and the number of distributed questionnaires was (55), distributed to each of the officials and workers in the Iraqi General tax authority, Professionals, and Academics at the University of Baghdad. A set of statistical methods were used to study the relationship between the two research variables, using the statistical program (SPSS) to analyze the data and calculate (the arithmetic mean, correlation coefficient, coefficient of variation, F test, R2 coefficient of determination, T test, Cronbach's alpha coefficient). The research has a significant positive relationship and influence between the framework (COBIT5) and the tax performance. The most influential dimensions of COBIT5 in tax performance dimension delivery, service and support (DSS), followed by evaluation, guidance and control (EDM), while the least influential dimensions in tax performance dimension compliance are planning and organization (APO). The research recommended adopting the COBIT5 internal control framework as a guide for auditors to advise senior management on the efficiency of the internal control system in the tax institution. This includes a governance framework for information technology, which is one of the most important pillars of the corporate governance system. This research also contributes by providing theoretical and practical implications for tax administration to improve the reality of tax performance.
