GRAINS-Wheat up on war worries; corn, soy also firm despite recession fears
(Recasts, updates prices, adds quotes, changes byline, changes dateline, previous PARIS/SINGAPORE)
By Julie Ingwersen
CHICAGO, Sept 28 (Reuters) - U.S. wheat futures were on track to climb about 3% on Wednesday, supported by fears of escalating conflict between major grain exporters Russia and Ukraine, as well as dry conditions in the U.S. Plains crop belt, analysts said.
Corn followed wheat futures higher while soybeans firmed in choppy trade, shaking off pressure from declines in global vegetable oil markets.
As of 1:11 p.m. CST (1811 GMT), Chicago Board of Trade December wheat was up 30 cents at $9.01-1/2 per bushel. CBOT December corn was up 3-1/2 cents at $6.71 a bushel and November soybeans were up 1-3/4 cents at $14.09-3/4 a bushel.
Wheat posted the biggest advance on the risk of further supply disruption in the Black Sea export zone. Moscow is poised to annex a swath of Ukraine, releasing what it called vote tallies showing support in four partially occupied provinces to join Russia, after what Kyiv and the West denounced as illegal sham referendums held at gunpoint.
"There is some support from fears that Russia/Ukraine war disrupts exports from the Black Sea, and also concern with Russia's threats to use nuclear weapons," research firm Hightower Report said in a note.
Meanwhile, dry conditions persist in the southern U.S. Plains, inhibiting the planting of the 2023 winter wheat crop, while harvest is off to a slow start in parts of Canada. In Manitoba, the fall harvest was only 47% complete, lagging the five-year average of 79%, the provincial government said in a weekly report.
In South America, the Buenos Aires grains exchange projected that Argentine wheat production would fall nearly 22% from a year ago 17.5 million tonnes due to drought.
"There are general concerns out there in the way of weather," noted Terry Reilly, senior commodity analyst with Futures International in Chicago.
Still, worries about a global recession hurting demand for goods continued to hang over commodity markets, capping rallies.
Bearish weekly U.S. ethanol data pressured corn futures. The U.S. Energy Information Administration said weekly production of corn-based ethanol fell last week to 855,000 barrels per day, a 19-month low, while stockpiles rose to 22.691 million barrels.
Traders were awaiting fresh fundamental direction from Friday's USDA quarterly U.S. grain stocks report. (Additional reporting by Gus Trompiz in Paris and Naveen Thukral in Singapore; Editing by Kirsten Donovan and Jonathan Oatis)

[www.inewsguyana.com] – A new Board of Directors of the Guyana Rice Development Board (GRDB) has been appointed to guide the agency over the coming year so as to enhance the sector, with Claude Housty, former General Manager of the Guyana Rice Export Board, as its Chairman.
This was disclosed on Monday, July 27, by Minister of Agriculture, Noel Holder while addressing the opening of the first National Rice Industry Conference at the Arthur Chung International Convention Centre, Liliendaal, Greater Georgetown.
As per statute, the Board is comprised of farmer and miller representatives, a consumer representative, as well as representatives of the Ministries of Foreign Affairs (Foreign Trade), Finance and Agriculture and a representative from the legal fraternity. The General Manager will be an Ex-officio member of the Board.
Guyana has been exporting rice consistently for over 100 years. Pledging the Government’s support to the industry, Minster Holder told the packed-to-capacity convention centre that the Government will continue to make investments that are necessary and fully support the agricultural sector.
“We will not stop here. Together, we will ensure that more markets are tapped in to with a view to Guyana’s rice being available worldwide. I implore all millers and exporters to let us collate our efforts and to partner with the government to ensure that we focus on finding and sustaining markets. Together we can achieve this — and indeed it’s a long road ahead, but some good work is already under way,” he told the conference. [Extracted and modified from GINA]

What do you do when you make a little extra cash? Some of us might go out to eat or buy those new shoes we've been eyeing. Others might invest it or put it into a savings account for a rainy day. Well, these two graduates of Healing Hands food workshops are using their "disposable" income to change their families lives!
John (pictured left) is a student who has been trying this "miraculous" kind of farming. He planted onions which he harvested at the end of February and managed to get 75 kilograms. He sold some and kept the rest for his family. He was then able to use that money to pay examination fees for his last born and according to him he has a plan to have more beds despite the challenge of water. Already he has planted four raised beds and with 120 meters of drip lines it will be easier for him to water his vegetables.
Francis (pictured right) is another exciting success story! He says although he doesn't have a donkey to carry water, he will not be stopped by anything. After selling tomatoes, Francis managed to feed his family and also bought a small tank where he can put his water. He did not stop there, he went ahead and bought a watering can which will help him as he waits for the drip lines. He has planted five raised beds so far.
What kind of impact could you make with your disposable income? For just $10 a month, you can join our Hunger Fighting Team and empower ten families to feed themselves!


The slump in phosphate prices is nearing its end, Mosaic said, even as it announced a further move to cut its production of the nutrient “to tighten and balance the market”.
The US-based group, with 16m tonnes capacity the world’s second-ranked phosphate group after Morocco’s OCP, estimated the net price of the nutrient - as measured by the value of benchmark product diammonium phosphate (DAP) minus costs of raw materials - at some $240 a tonne.
That represents a drop of one-third from the latest high, reached in summer 2018, but has taken the net price to levels which have represented floors before, as in late 2016, as producer margins are squeezed.
Indeed, “at current prices, global phosphate producers are stressed”, Mosaic said.
“We believe producers in the top half of the cost curve are under significant stress.”
The group added that it saw world phosphate prices “at or very close to, the bottom”.
‘Support seasonal demand’
The comments tally with those of Russian rival PhosAgro, which said two weeks ago that “phosphate-based fertilizer prices are expected to stabilise in the medium term, followed by a gradual recovery”.
The revival would be driven by factors including seasonal upticks in fertilizer demand in Europe and North America, as nutrients are provided to winter crops, and the maintenance of Indian nutrient subsidies at year-ago levels.
“The high margin for [Indian] DAP importers will help to support seasonal demand, despite high inventory levels,” PhosAgro said.
It also cited “the intention of major Chinese producers to decrease DAP production by 0.8m-1.0m tonnes per quarter in the coming periods in order to support prices”.
Many commentators have seen Chinese phosphate exports as heaping pressure on the world market.
Joc O’Rourke, the Mosaic chief executive, noting that “phosphate prices have declined further through the summer”, flagged “excess imports continuing to enter the US on top of high channel inventories”.
However, the group, fresh from closing its Plant City phosphates site in Florida, revealed that it would as of next month idle its Louisiana phosphate operations “to tighten supply and rebalance the market”.
The temporary closure will reduce the group’s phosphates output this year by some 500,000 tonnes, and is “expected to accelerate the reduction of high phosphate fertiliser inventories.”
Mosaic said it "expects a more balanced global suppy-and-demand picture to emerge in 2020".
The move follows too the temporary shutdown of potash production at Mosaic’s Colonsay mine in Saskatchewan, Canada.
And it came as Mosaic announced too a $250m share buyback, under a scheme which has a further $600m in authorised purchases.
The group also revealed that its purchase of Vale Fertilizantes was on track to meet or exceed its target of $275m in synergies this year, with a further $200m in “annual value” to be created “through ongoing business transformation efforts by the end of 2022”.
Mosaic shares stood up 4.2% at $21.03 in lunchtime deals in New York.

Eating locally grown, healthy, sustainable foods is something close to the Rev. Craig Goodwin's heart.
“We’ve got the strongest lineup of farmers ever,” he said, noting last season the market averaged more than 20 venders each week.
The market was housed indoors during the winter and recently moved to its summer, outdoor location in the parking lot of the church, 3223 N. Marguerite.
At the market, shoppers can buy directly from the people who grow, raise or gather vegetables, fruit, bread, eggs and meat, along with specialty items such as wild mushrooms, huckleberries, honey, jam and salsa. The market also features the work of a select group of artisans, including locally hand-crafted wool yarns, soaps, candles and jewelry, according to a press release.
Shoppers may also use EBT (electronic benefits transfer), debit or credit cards, which are swiped at the market’s main booth, in exchange for tokens accepted by vendors.
Millwood also accepts state WIC (Women, Infants and Children) coupons, which help provide nutritional foods to supplement diets for low-income families. In the Spokane area, Millwood is the only market that regularly serves as a distribution point for WIC coupons.
According to a press release, the market, which opened in 2007, has lasted longer at one location than all but one other farmers market in the Spokane area (Liberty Lake).
Hours are 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. Wednesdays, May 23 through Sept. 26.
According to the Agricultural Marketing Service, farmers markets are booming as Americans embrace the benefits of eating local food. The AMS reported 7,175 farmers markets operating in 2011, an increase of 13 percent over 2010 and 26 percent since 2009. There were fewer than 3,000 markets in 1994, the first year for which figures are available.
Below is a guide to seasonal foods, provided by the Millwood Farmers Market:
• Early season: Salad vegetables, spinach, chard, asparagus, and wild mushrooms. Hydroponically produced lettuce and peppers. Bedding plants for your home garden.
• Early summer: Cherries, raspberries and sweet peas. A broader selection of vegetables, including the first beets, broccoli, cabbage and zucchinis.
• Mid-summer: Early tomatoes, peppers, cauliflower and a wide array of vegetables. Apricots, strawberries and blueberries.
• Late summer: Fresh corn, beans, early potatoes, eggplants and abundant tomatoes. Huckleberries.
• Early fall: Fresh apples, potatoes, early pumpkins and winter squash. Late corn and tomatoes. Root crops and most varieties of vegetables.

Assembling Raised Beds at Harrod HQ
It was another busy day for the Customer Services Team at Harrod Horticultural HQ yesterday assembling one of our best selling Standard Wooden Raised Beds.
We feel it is important for our Customer Services team to really understand our products, from how they are used into the garden, right down to how to assemble them. This helps us provide the best advice we can when speaking to our customers.
So with the team assembled and all the parts laid out ready along with level, measure and electric drill (acting as a screwdriver) it was all systems go.
Following the instructions it was straighforward to get the planks fixed to the corner posts using the screwdriver and supplied screws. The pilot holes make the job nice and easy as well, but would thoroughly recommend using an electric screwdriver or it would be pretty hard work.
We did have the definite benefit of assembling the raised bed on a nice flat warehouse floor. It is advisable to assemble on a flat surface and then move into position if possible, or at least for the first level of the raised beds as it makes it so much easier to keep everything level.
The Standard Raised Bed was nice and sturdy when assembled, but time was against us, so we only managed to get the first level completed - so the plan is to finish these off next week, putting the next layer on and adding the capping.
When the raised bed is finished we will need to find it a new home in the garden. the customer service team are already busy deciding what to grow in it - beetroot and carrots are the current front runnners.

Root pads. Root pads are clumps of shrubbery composed of such species as willow
(shrubby forms), redosier dogwood, european alder ( Alnus glutinosa), and others. It is often
used in the splash zone as a part of root wads where the root pads are positioned in between
them. Root pads can also be used further up the slope into the bank and terrace zones.
Caution should be exercised in planting these during the dormant season. They can be
removed from harvest areas and placed at the project site with front-end loaders. "Veimeer"
type spades are sometimes used on root pads where species have deep penetrating roots
whereas front-end loaders are used on species whose roots spread out more at the surface.
Placement of root pads on slopes greater than 1V:6H should include securing the root pads
by driving 2-in diameter, 18 to 24-in long wooden stakes through the pads at 2 to 3-ft
intervals (Logan et al., 1979)
This zone may be exposed to considerable flooding and current and wave action. If only
mild current and wave action is expected, sodding of flood-tolerant grasses like reed canagry
grass, buffalo grass (Buchloe dactyloides), or switchgrass (Panicum virgatum) can be
employed to provide rapid bank stabilization. Usually, the sod must be held in place with
some kind of wire mesh, geotextile mesh such as a coir fabric, or stakes. A soilless system


Grain prices were mixed but mostly higher today, anchored by solid gains from corn and soybeans after both crops saw an unexpected three-point quality ratings decline from USDA late Monday afternoon. Nearby corn contracts firmed more than 1.5%, with soybeans up 2.25%. Wheat prices were mixed – Chicago and Kansas City contracts each made solid inroads, while spring wheat futures suffered a modest setback.
Scattered showers should fall across portions of the Midwest and Plains between Wednesday and Saturday, especially north of I-80, but few areas are likely to see significant amounts, per the latest 72-hour cumulative precipitation map from NOAA. The agency’s 8-to-14-day outlook predicts some seasonally wet weather returning to the central U.S. between July 5 and July 11, with widespread warmer-than-normal temperatures likely.
On Wall St., the Dow tumbled 450 points in afternoon trading to 30,987, partly on the still-declining consumer confidence index amid ongoing worries about high inflation and rising interest rates. Energy futures were mixed but mostly higher. Crude oil rose 2% this afternoon to reach $111 per barrel. Gasoline climbed 2.5% higher, while diesel dropped 0.5%. The U.S. Dollar firmed moderately.
On Monday, commodity funds were net buyers of soybeans (+9,000), soymeal (+5,000) and soyoil (+3,000) contracts but were net sellers of corn (-17,000) and CBOT wheat (-6,500).
Corn prices fought through a choppy session to finish with moderate gains today. Prices have had a hard time gaining much positive forward momentum over the past week or so, but lower-than-expected crop quality ratings provided the opportunity for some technical buying and bargain buying today. July futures rose 12.25 cents to $7.5650, while September futures added 6.25 cents to $6.6725.
Corn basis bids tilted 5 cents higher at an Iowa river terminal while holding steady across other Midwestern locations on Tuesday.
Corn ratings shifted moderately lower in the week ending June 26, moving from 70% of the crop rated in good-to-excellent condition a week ago down to 67%. That was two points below the average trade guess of 69%. Another 25% is rated fair (up a point from last week), with the remaining 8% rated poor or very poor (up two points from last week). Physiologically, 4% of this season’s corn crop is now silking, which is consistent with the prior five-year average.
The latest data from the European Commission shows that 2021/22 EU corn imports 636.6 million bushels through June 26. That’s a year-over-year increase of 7.5% so far.
Brazil’s Anec is forecasting that the country’s corn exports will reach 87.0 million bushels in June, which is down 2.7% from the group’s prior estimate from last week.
Preliminary volume estimates were for 308,272 contracts, shifting 25% lower than Monday’s final count of 408,829.
Soybean prices captured double-digit gains after USDA docked quality ratings by three points in its latest crop progress report. Spillover support from other commodities, including crude oil, lent additional tailwinds today. July futures climbed 36.75 cents to $16.6725, with August futures up 25.5 cents to $15.55.
Soybean basis bids slid 4 cents lower at an Ohio elevator on Tuesday but held steady elsewhere across the central U.S. today.
Soybean quality took an unexpected turn for the worse last week, losing three and falling to 65% rated in good-to-excellent condition. Another 27% is rated fair (up a point from last week), with the remaining 8% rated poor or very poor (up two points from last week).
USDA is currently tracking three physiological stages for this season’s soybean crop. Nearly all (98%) has now been planted, up from 94% a week ago and a point ahead of the prior five-year average of 97%. Ninety-one percent of the crop is emerged, matching the prior five-year average. And 7% is now blooming, down from the prior five-year average of 11%.
Brazil’s Anec estimates that the country will export 373.1 million bushels of soybeans in June. However, the current estimate is down 5.9% from its projection a week ago. Anec also reported that the country’s soymeal exports will come in around 1.683 million metric tons this month.
European Union soybean imports during the 2021/22 marketing year have reached 528.7 million bushels through June 26, which is slightly below last year’s pace so far. EU soymeal imports are also down slightly year-over-year, with 16.16 million metric tons over the same period.
South Korea issued an international tender to purchase 120,000 metric tons of soymeal from optional origins, which would be for arrival between October 25 and November 5. Offers must be submitted by today.
Preliminary volume estimates were for 210,251 contracts, trending slightly higher than Monday’s final count of 184,284.
Wheat prices were mixed but mostly higher on Tuesday. Winter wheat contracts finally fell low enough to attract a round of bargain buying that helped prices firm as much as 1.75% today. Spring wheat failed to follow suit, closing with moderate losses. July Chicago SRW futures rose 15.75 cents to $9.1975, July Kansas City HRW futures gained 11.25 cents to $9.84, and July MGEX spring wheat futures dropped 7 cents to $10.3450.
Spring wheat plantings are nearly complete, with 98% progress through June 26. And 8% of the crop is headed, which is far behind 2021’s pace of 45% and the prior five-year average of 34%. Crop conditions saw a bit of shuffling. While 59% is rated in good-to-excellent condition (unchanged from last week), 33% is rated fair (down two points from a week ago) and 8% is rated poor or very poor (up two points from last week).
Winter wheat quality ratings were mostly stable, with 1% of the crop shifting from poor to very poor. Meantime, 30% of the crop is still rated in good-to-excellent condition, and 27% of the crop is still rated fair. Harvest is moving slightly faster than analysts expected, with 41% now complete through Sunday.
European Union soft wheat exports during the 2021/22 marketing year have reached 997.2 million bushels through June 26. That’s a year-over-year increase of 6.0% so far. EU barley exports are slightly below year-ago totals, meantime, with 314.6 million bushels.
Algeria purchased more wheat than previously estimated by European traders in last week’s tender after buying 27.2 million bushels from optional origins. The grain is for shipment in July or August, depending on the source.
Jordan purchased 2.2 million bushels of hard milling wheat from optional origins in an international tender (which was for twice that amount) that closed earlier today. The grain is for shipment in late September.
Preliminary volume estimates were for 104,486 CBOT contracts, which was up slightly from Monday’s final count of 99,098.

Taiwan Oolong Tea Knowledge Base by Eco-Cha
I wasn’t sure which category to post this in, but I think it works in General.
Wanted to let you know about a new Taiwan tea industry and Oolong tea knowledge base – http://learn.eco-cha.com/ -
We’ve compiled lots of knowledge about the Taiwan tea industry, traditions, and of course TEA. This mostly focuses on oolong tea (production to tasting) trends within the Taiwan tea industry and oolong tea
There’s a bunch up there already and we’re constantly adding more.
Here’s our AMA on Steepster to give you an idea of some of the info you’ll find: http://steepster.com/discuss/6957-steepster-ama-meet-nick-and-andy-of-eco-cha

Last year was fantastic for most fruit. We had masses of blossom, a few fine days, and that must have done the trick. But, as has been said, a wonky Spring in 2012 has almost certainly ruined pollination time. Actually, there was half the blossom this year, so that definitely counted. I can hardly find anything on my trees. Can any experts here say why we get heavy blossom Springs? Can it be the hard previous winter or longer term influences?

Gavita pro 1000 Watt DE HPS CMH with DE HPS bulb used 2 months.
These are generic Gavita lights we have several available, they come with a 240v power cord but will run on 120v or 240v.
They will run 1000watt DE HPS or 1000watt DE MH or DE CMH 600 (on 600watt setting).
I highly recommend using the CMH 600w Bulbs . Your power bill will be less and light intensity is greater than the 1000w HPS bulb.
They were used in a nursery but were a little too bright for our plants as we grow a lot of medium to low light plants. We bought brand new 1000w HPS bulbs, used them a few months and then ended up buying led lights and 600 watt CMH bulbs due to our power issues.


Have you driven Highway 80 lately? If you were traveling to Sacramento or Lake Tahoe, you may have noticed an exciting new attraction along the way. The Nut Tree in Vacaville -- a part of the history of the area since the 1920's -- has reopened and has new retail stores, restaurants, and rides for children.
One of the new shops in the "Nut Tree Village" is the Capay Valley Valley Farm Shop. The Capay Valley is an area of Yolo County, approximately 100 miles northeast of San Francisco. It's an abundant growing region where fruit and vegetable crops in addition to wheat, wine, beef, lamb, olive oil, honey, walnuts and almonds are produced. Farmers of the Capay Valley joined together to create the Capay Valley Farm Shop in a location convenient to the many drivers on Highway 80.
That the Farm Shop is located in the historic Nut Tree complex is fitting. The Nut Tree history is integral to the California food movement, and Alice Waters has praised the Nut Tree for being important in the creation of California Cuisine. It started as a fruit stand, and eventually became a stopping point for dignitaries, travelers, and locals alike who were looking for good, fresh food and innovative cuisine.
Visitors to the Farm Shop will find Capay Valley produce, seasonally prepared foods including salads and sandwiches, and gift items such as lavender products, honey, and jam. Over the course of a year, the Farm Shop will feature products from 42 Capay Valley farms. Thomas Nelson, a co-owner of the shop, says that the Farm Shop is modeled after the farm shop concept in England, where it is common to have shops convenient for customers with carefully selected local produce and other items.

That’s according to the government press service referring to a report by the Ministry of Economy, Ukrinform wrote.
On December 16, 2021, the Eighth Meeting of the Intergovernmental Joint Commission on Economic and Scientific-Technical Cooperation between Ukraine and the Arab Republic of Egypt was held in Cairo, co-chaired by First Deputy Prime Minister, Economy Minister of Ukraine Yulia Svyrydenko and Minister of International Cooperation Rania Al-Mashat.
"Relations between Ukraine and Egypt have a long and successful history, and holding a joint meeting of the Commission was a natural continuation of the intensification of the Ukrainian-Egyptian dialogue at the senior and highest levels. Our countries have great potential for expanding trade and economic cooperation. In this context, the possibility of concluding a preferential trade agreement between Ukraine and Egypt is being considered," said First Deputy Prime Minister of Ukraine Yulia Svyridenko.
Ukraine is interested in the presence on the Egyptian market beyond just agricultural products. The readiness was stressed to diversify supplies by increasing the export of value-added products of food and processing industries.
In addition, Ukraine attaches great importance to cooperation with Egypt in the field of phytosanitary protection and remains interested in increasing trade in plant and animal products, which will be determined by the responsible authorities of Egypt. The parties also stressed the importance of implementing joint projects by companies from both countries.
During the meeting, the parties identified areas of cooperation of mutual interest, including agriculture, energy, industry, transport infrastructure and logistics, urban construction, space technology, information technology, tourism, health care, cooperation in the matters of youth and sports, etc.
The agreement on cooperation in standardization was signed by SE Ukrainian Research and Training Center for Standardization, Certification and Quality and the Egyptian Organization for Standardization and Quality, as well as a Memorandum of Understanding between the State Space Agency of Ukraine and the Egyptian Space Agency for Cooperation in Space and the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space.
The Ukrainian-Egyptian Business Forum was also held in the fields of the Commission under the auspices of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Ukraine and the Federation of Egyptian Chambers of Commerce.
As reported by Ukrinform citing customs data, as of December 8, Ukraine exported almost 15 million tonnes of wheat, including 9.8 million tonnes of food wheat and 5.13 million tonnes of feed wheat.
Shipments of food wheat increased with the support of growing demand from importers who prefer high-protein wheat (for food purposes) – Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Algeria, and other countries of the MENA (Middle East and North Africa) region.

The Abyssinian Fund: A Mission to Reinvent in the Land of Paradise
Reverend Nicholas S. Richards, President of The Abyssinian Fund and Assistant Minister at Abyssinian Baptist Church, will be honored for his work in Ethiopia for the third annual Hidden Heroes Awards.
Reverend Richards’ mission is to reduce poverty in Ethiopia, the birthplace of coffee. Since its inception in 2009, The Abyssinian Fund partners with coffee farmers to help them learn more efficient methods of farming. The training the farmers receive results in the production of a higher quality of coffee that can be sold at a premium rate. This effective system ultimately improves the livelihood of the farmers and their communities as they reinvest the coffee profits into development projects throughout their village.
The devastation Reverend Richards witnessed while visiting Chaffee Jenette, Ethiopia was enough for him to create a plan to help. The community is suffering from a shortage of educational and modern health care facilities and the
lack of clean water sources. Ironically, Chaffee Jenette means “land of paradise” but this land is not like any paradise many of us in the U.S. have experienced. Though they are in need of help, the people of Chaffee Jenette demonstrate the will and desire to change their lives. This change is possible with the help of one of their major exports, coffee and with the training they receive from The Abyssinian Fund.
The Hidden Heroes Award, hosted by The Andrew Goodman Foundation, is to honor, encourage and support this type of effective social activism. Reverend Richards was nominated as a Hidden Hero because he is ambitious, innovative and diligent about giving back. His plan works because coffee is the second most traded commodity in the world so Ethiopia is able to reach international buyers who are willing to pay premium prices for excellent coffee. In America alone more than $40 billion is spent on coffee each year.
Coffee farming is nothing new to Ethiopia; it’s a trade that has been active for more than 200 years. The coffee farmers, who make about $500 per year, tend to the fields using methods they learned passed down from generations before them. Often what they had been taught is outdated especially due to recent changes in climate and a higher, quicker demand for the crop.
The Abyssinian Fund hires field trainers with over 40 years of modern agricultural engineer experience. They teach the farmers new skills and techniques like how to choose the best beans— bright red ones are the most profitable and therefore increasing their yield and income. So far, more than 800 farmers have taken part in the training and as a result, it has had a positive effect on the lives of more than 5,000 Ethiopians.
What’s so unique about The Abyssinian Fund’s mission is that they have a contractual agreement with the farmers that says they must reinvest 10% of their coffee profit into the community. Giving back means building more schools, training doctors in modern health practices and incorporating clean water programs.
The Hidden Heroes awards ceremony will take place at the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture in Harlem, NY. Former Mayor David Dinkins will accept a Lifetime Achievement award to be presented by Harry Belafonte, last year’s Lifetime Achievement Award winner.

Farm Film Fest 6 at the Crandell Theater in Chatham made for a very nice late winter afternoon filled with thinking about farms, farmers and farming. I called Zena, Goddess of Fire and we were all over it. The fest is a collaborative effort between The Chatham Agricultural Partnership, The Chatham Film Club, and The Columbia Land Conservancy. Two 60 minute works were the bookends for a small group of short pieces and there were food and drinks at the pub afterwards.
Crafting the Cider Comeback
Hopped Upstate: The Rise of Local Hop Farming in New York
Locust Hill Farm
Trowbridge Farms - Angus Cattle
The Beekeeper is on the program, but it was not shown at the festival due to technical difficulties with the sound. It's on vimeo - just follow the information on the festival website.
There are summaries of the films on the site, so I won't go over each one.
I was very excited to see a nice and cute documentary of urban farming in "Growing Cities" and thought immediately of our urban farm here in Albany: Radix . I was great to see all the ways that urban farms have become an important element in the social fabric in San Francisco, Detroit, Milwaukee, Chicago, New Orleans and even Omaha. The celebration of cider in "Crafting the Cider Comeback" made me all excited to participate in the Hudson Valley Cider Week coming up in the fall. This link is for the 2013 information, which will likely be set up for 2014 sometime in the summer.
The others were all good little documentaries that pack a lot of information into a couple hours of entertainment.
I'm sure the Goddess and I will be looking out for this festival next spring, while we're waiting for the lettuces and garlic scapes to break the soil's surface. Yum.
On the way home from Chatham we stopped at The Berry Farm to see what they've been growing in their greenhouses and Tierra Farms, both on rt. 203 between Chatham center and Kinderhook. The Berry Farm never disappoints, so we picked up a few delights. Tierra Farms is worth a trip from Albany when you are looking for all organic nuts, nut butters, dried fruits and their well-known coffee.


I read that I should cut the flower stalks off the plant when they died but leave the leaves on but one plants leaves are so long they fell over so don’t know what to do with it.also was told just to leave dormant plants in a sunny window water and set outside in the spring to bloom.thought bulbs had to go dormant.thanks for any help you can give me
Certified GKH Gardening Expert
If you mean spring-blooming bulbs, their foliage needs to die back gradually so they can nourish the bulb for next year. Same is true for lily bulbs. Cut off the dead flower stalk but let the foliage die back naturally. Then in the fall the brown foliage can be removed. Then if your bulbs are not hardy in your area, they need to be dug up and stored in a cool but below freezing place for winter.
Here is more information on dormancy.

SWC, the next level
I am wondering if Raybo's combo mix for SWC will work for a large SWC. I want to make a full size 4' x 8' raised bed with large reservoirs. Will that mix work for a large area?
Also would like to make the mix from scratch instead of having to purchase too many bags of potting mix. I would buy material in bulk to make the wicking mix. I'd like to make several 4' x 8' beds so I will need a lot of mix. Any ideas?

European Funders for Sustainable Agriculture and Food and European Climate Foundation workshop – Research useful for food systems transformations in Europe
The EFC European Funders for Sustainable Agriculture and Food (EFSAF) network and European Climate Foundation will host a joint workshop exploring “Research useful for food systems transformations in Europe” on 29 January, from 09:00-12:00 CET.
This joint workshop is a first step, and follow up, to a funder’s meeting organised by ECF in December 2020 that saw a small group of funders interested in transforming the European food systems, and either, already actively funding research on food systems, or interested in doing so, come together to explore shared issues, and avenues of work.
Questions framing the workshop include:
- How can research be used for advocacy purposes at member state level and EU level?
- How to connect the political discussions at Member States level and EU Parliament and Council to scientific evidence?
- What complementarities is there to seek with Horizon Europe, considering that more money will be dedicated to food systems through this programme for research and innovation?
- On specific themes, what are the priorities already identified, current research initiatives and needs?
For more information contact Deborah Flon.

The book is thorough and full of good information for intense gardening and year-around gardening.
This was my first how-to-garden book and I was so happy to find one specifically for organic gardening, specifically for the Pacific Northwest.
Our temperate cool climate is a challenge, and these season extending techniques will allow you to grow many more "normal" crops.
This is the most comprehensive and helpful book that I've read for gardening in the maritime northwest. Read morePublished 13 months ago by gardengal

(HN, September 8, 2011) - Millions of dollars worth of Libyan land purchases from Ukraine to Mali are up in the air now that the Government of Colonel Gadaffi has crumbled.
Importing food is essential for Libya - almost all its food needs, including wheat and flour, is brought in to feed its 5.3 million people.
In May 2008, during a state visit to Kyiv, Gadaffi gave Ukraine an oil and gas contract in exchange for 247.000 ha of Ukrainian land to produce its own food.
A few years ago, according to Michael Muleba, Executive Director, Farmer Organisation Support Programme, Libya acquired control of 100.000 ha in the office du Niger, Mali’s main rice producing area. As part of the deal, Libya agreed to improve local infrastructure including enlarging canal and improving a road. But when it came to awarding these contracts and to finding a supplier of rice seeds, local firms were snubbed in favor of Chinese and Libyan ones.
Aside from Libya, Saudi Arabia, China and South Korea that have sought farmland abroad to guarantee food supplies and cut dependence on imports.
Africa is a prime target for foreign land grabs. Muleda describes various ways including: land purchases, long term leases, and large investments in existing farms as well as barter-type principles. The collective GRAIN argues that while African governments proclaim their commitments to food self-sufficiency, behind the backs of their people they are signing an alarming number of deals with foreign investors that give these investors control over their countries’ most important agricultural lands, including rice lands.
However, now that Gadaffi is gone, there is speculation that some of the deals may not stand up.
Even the Ukraine deal ran into trouble shortly after it was negotiated by former Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko, who is now being prosecuted for alleged corruption. After a visit to Tripoli in 2009 she defended the deal, saying "Libya is a bridge to African countries. Africa can be a great consumer of Ukrainian grain and food. We worked out a draft agreement which is to be signed."

Karnataka has 5 lakh acre of arecanut plantation, where more than 15 lakh families dependent on its annual crop income. Karnataka is largest producer of the beetulnut / supari / arecanut. Most of the western ghat region of 4 districts grows arecanut along with semi-costal region of 3 districts of Karnataka. Average acreage of the farmers differs from district to taluks which ranges from less than 1 acre to 10 acres per farmer family. However they have been growing arecanut over 2-3 centuries as family heritage & dependable crop. However, pictures are changing year on year, month by month.
One need to watch what exactly the pain point of the farmers are, as we go more deeper into their livelihood. Average farmer who own these lands are aged 40+ since their kids are either at study / job at distant city. Labour community too has made similar settlements, where aged men woman stays at village, whereas younger are either at study or joined jobs. Even a non educated migrate to city due to possibility of fining a handymen / helper job. This in return created a huge gap of skilled labours. Given the tree is around 60+ feet high and fruits has to be serviced by climbing each tree in rains to Put fungicides and to pluck when it ripe.
“My village is an old age home, all of us are above 50 years, so who works in field is the million rupee question. Over few decades there are so many Areca marketing firms, but none in the R&D or implementation of some smart technologies, that made us still do all the same old tricks and stuff same way its been done. – Mr. M.P.Bhat, retired chairmen of a farmer co-operative”
So, when the bandwagon went on to market the arecanuts and its by products, R&D or search of a smarter / innovative technologies were very little. Few firms had set up R&D divisions, but outcome of their research into any technology breakthrough was none. Hence, entire community who cultivated this crop over 3 centuries remained remote, unadvanced, closed to outer world on innovations and technology. There were many brave hearts who made courageous attempts to invent Areca skin peeling machines, tree climbing tools to make it to mass usage / adoption. However very few met with little or no success at all.
Sulphuric acid or Bordeaux mixture is what used as fungicide to these crops when rains are about to hit in June each year. Spraying depends on what quantities of rains / moisture / mixed weather faced by crop. Fungus hit trees going to loose all tender nuts which eventually not grown and falls off, which results in huge losses to farmers. Another note is, there are large number of small scale farmers with less than 1 acre land, where each KG of arecanut is also important livelihood for them. One cannot dare to service the farm himself, due to the slippery trees, its hight of around 60+ feet and lashing rains make things worst. There are very thin skilled labour left who can climb risking their lives, each year a district looses at least a labour falling from a tree during crop servicing.
In 2015 – 2016 when TRITHI Robotics team started to reach out to Areca farmers communities to see how our drones can help them do their job effectively & safely, lot of the farmers were welcoming the idea but worrying over the expensive option of buying drones & learn to use them. Since we aim to provide service at affordable rates, rather than farmers investing heavy on machines & technology. Since our Indian operations are gearing up last quarter of 2017, we hope these farmers will see the light at the end of the tunnel they have been through.
