Macrowine 2012 - Macrovision of viticulture, wine-making and markets - June 18>21, 2012 - Bordeaux, FRANCE June 18 > 21, 2012 Bordeaux, France Dear colleagues, We are pleased to announce the next Macrowine meeting, to be held in Bordeaux, June 18-21, 2012. Further details and registration on this website ( pensée Kodo (percussions) Exploring the limitless possibilities of the traditional Japanese drum, the taiko, Kodo is forging new directions for a vibrant living art-form. In Japanese the word "Kodo" conveys two meanings: Firstly, "heartbeat" the primal source of all rhythm. The sound of the great taiko is said to resemble a mother's heartbeat as felt in the womb, and it is no myth that babies are often lulled asleep by its thunderous vibrations. Secondly, read in a different way, the word can mean "children of the drum," a reflection of Kodo's desire to play the drums simply, with the heart of a child. Since the group’s debut at the Berlin Festival in 1981, Kodo has given over 3600 performances on all five continents, spending about a third of the year overseas, a third touring in Japan and a third resting and preparing new material on Sado Island.
Social farming in Europe The degree to which social farming has developed throughout Europe differs according to the situation in the respective country. Pioneer status – several projects are being developed that implement social farming concepts: Slovenia Czech Republic Bulgaria Moderately developed status – the number and diversity of social farming projects is growing, specific user networks are developing and consolidating but political backing and financial support is not yet guaranteed: France Portugal Finland Germany IOWA STATE UNIVERSITY 11/04/11 FAPRI-ISU Presents 2011 World Agricultural Outlook, Adds Greenhouse Gas and Fertilizer Projection Contacts: Jacinto Fabiosa, FAPRI Co-Director; jfabiosa@iastate.edu Dermot Hayes, FAPRI, Co-Director ; dhayes@iastate.edu Sandy Clarke, Communications Manager ; sclarke@iastate.edu April 11, 2011 New modeling capabilities that give 15-year projections for world greenhouse gas emissions and fertilizer use highlight the 2011 World Agricultural Outlook of the Food and Agricultural Policy Research Institute at Iowa State University. “This year, FAPRI-ISU developed and implemented a fertilizer model and cellulosic ethanol model and it improved its greenhouse gas emissions accounting model,” said Jacinto Fabiosa, co-director.
IUFRO 2012 Genetics of Fagaceae and Nothofagaceae - home page 9th - 12th October 2012 Agora - University of Bordeaux Talence, France The conference on "Genetics of Fagaceae" will take place in Talence (suburb of Bordeaux, France) from October 9th to 12th, 2012. The aim of this international conference is to present new scientific findings in the area of genetics of Fagaceae and Nothofagaceae. The conference will focus on adaptation in the context of global climate changes and will cover subjects from genes to species, including tree species as well as their associated species. The hand - StumbleUpon The hands are a notorious source of frustration. This section won't concentrate on the muscle structure, since the hand is very complex in this regard, and knowing this won't help much in drawing them. Instead, we'll look at proportions, range of motion, and possible simplifications. Structure and proportions Figure 2.20. Bone structure and proportions of the hand
Dairyman Zero grazing dairy farming systems Read more Areas of expertise Introduction Dairyman will lead to a more competitive dairy sector, stronger regional economies and an improved ecological performance with the rural area. Dairyman is a project in the INTERREG IVB program co-funded by the European Regional Development Fund. In Dairyman 14 partners in 10 NWE regions covering 7 countries are cooperating. WESTERN CANADIAN FEED INNOVATION NETWORK 09/11/10 Agricultural Greenhouse Gases Program – Request for Proposal Agricultural Greenhouse Gases Program – Request for Proposal This is a Request for Proposal (RFP) for the Agricultural Greenhouse Gases Program (AGGP), which represents Canada’s initial commitment to Global Research Alliance (GRA). The GRA is an international network that was launched on December 16, 2009 at the UN climate change conference in Copenhagen, Denmark. GRA is centered on helping reduce the emissions intensity of agricultural production and increasing its potential for soil carbon sequestration thereby contributing to overall mitigation efforts.

EUROPA_EU 19/12/17 EU agricultural outlook: European emissions linked to agriculture set to decrease by 2030 European greenhouse gas and ammonia emissions linked to agriculture are set to decrease by 2030 thanks to modern farming techniques reducing the use and improving the efficiency of inputs such as fertiliser. These are among the findings of the EU agricultural markets outlook report for 2017-2030, published on 18 December 2017, which looks at the expected development of certain environmental indicators such as emissions of greenhouse gases, air pollutants and nitrogen. According to the report total non-CO² greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture are expected to decrease by 1.5% by 2030, compared to 2008. Most emissions of non CO² greenhouse gases (i.e. methane and nitrous oxide) in agriculture originate directly or indirectly from animal production – this sector will be directly responsible for 72% of those emissions in 2030, assuming emissions from manure on the field are allocated to the livestock sector. GHG gas emissions sources in the EU in 2030 (million t CO2 equivalent)
