[00:01:28] These are the news, let's continue. Talk about the main thing. On
[00:01:32] guard of food security of the country. Our
[00:01:35] farmers are literally fighting for the harvest. And the loaf, taking into account
[00:01:39] Rapeseed, is already 7,165,000
[00:01:42] tons. The Colombian authorities introduced an emergency regime after a deadly
[00:01:46] earthquake. Also coffee exports are on the verge
[00:01:49] of collapse. All infrastructure suffered. Projects
[00:01:52] of artificial intelligence for transport and ecology in the Academy of Sciences
[00:01:56] of Belarus Neuro Network master new spheres and
[00:02:00] introduce them into our daily life.
[00:02:03] The battle for the harvest continues with our farmers. There is the seventh
[00:02:06] million. As of today, 7.165 tons
[00:02:10] of grain have been threshed, including
[00:02:12] Rapeseed, and this is more than one and a half million more than on the same day
[00:02:16] last year. So, the Brest region has overcome
[00:02:19] the milestone of 1.5 million. The Grodno region will soon reach the same
[00:02:23] mark. The grain growers of the Minsk region have
[00:02:26] 1.886
[00:02:29] tons of new harvest. The contribution to the total harvest of Gomel and Mogilev
[00:02:33] regions is 937 and 796 thousand
[00:02:36] tons. In the Vitebsk region, almost 600 thousand. In total,
[00:02:40] grain, including rapeseed, without corn, has been harvested from
[00:02:43] 80% of the areas. In
[00:02:46] the battle for the harvest, along with experienced machine operators and
[00:02:49] drivers, a new generation of farmers is working. So, in
[00:02:52] the Minsk region, there are 29 youth crews. In
[00:02:56] the agricultural enterprise Krutogorie-Petkovichi of the Dzerzhinsky
[00:02:59] district, young people continue family
[00:03:01] dynasties. In particular, on this steppe ship, Evgeny
[00:03:05] Khalimonchik is responsible for the course, dynamics of bread harvesting.
[00:03:08] Lyubov Nemerzhitskaya protects the technical comfort of the combine,
[00:03:12] monitors the minimization of losses.
[00:03:15] Cohesion appears at the stage of combine repair, when you
[00:03:19] start unscrewing everything together, if something is unclear to someone, you need to
[00:03:22] explain, show, tell,
[00:03:25] that is, hold it, hand over the same key, that is, it all starts like
[00:03:29] this...
[00:04:30] we prepare haylage, hay, press, remove
[00:04:33] straw, apply fertilizer,
[00:04:37] plow, prepare the land for sowing
[00:04:40] winter rapeseed. In the Minsk region, four leading districts,
[00:04:43] Nesvizhsky, Sludsky, Kupolsky and Minsk, harvested
[00:04:47] 100 tons of new harvest.
[00:04:50] Attention in this agricultural season is also paid to garden fruits, so in the Spartan
[00:04:54] Agro farm, an apple is not just a fruit, but a real
[00:04:57] art object. The yield here is up to 80 tons per hectare,
[00:05:00] the task is not only to grow, but to preserve the harvest. The storage
[00:05:04] complex with a gas environment and the apple, as if falling asleep in
[00:05:08] an atmosphere with minimal oxygen and... wakes up
[00:05:11] in spring as if it had just been picked from the tree,
[00:05:14] an automated system, it is quite modern, it has good
[00:05:18] modern equipment, which is
[00:05:21] refrigeration, modern equipment for microclimate, the whole storage
[00:05:25] is computerized, technologically approaching storage, we
[00:05:29] can greatly extend the shelf
[00:05:31] life of our apples, it all started back in
[00:05:35] 1997, with a very small plot of land of 5
[00:05:39] hectares, where it was located. gradually, step
[00:05:43] by step, after almost
[00:05:47] 30 years, we are probably the leader in the
[00:05:50] Minsk region in terms of the number of apples
[00:05:54] produced, I will note that in the farm, the system is completely
[00:05:57] automated, irrigation and nutrition of trees, GPS monitoring
[00:06:01] of equipment and software documentation
[00:06:04] of indicators. 30 days in space and now on
[00:06:07] a school garden bed. In Ivie, on the territory of the first
[00:06:11] gymnasium, they grew tomatoes from seeds
[00:06:14] that had been in orbit as part of an international project
[00:06:18] into space with their tomato. Two groups of plants were
[00:06:21] planted here from space seeds and ordinary ones. All of them
[00:06:24] grow in the same conditions. Schoolchildren monitor the development of tomatoes
[00:06:28] at every stage of the experiment. First,
[00:06:31] we planted them in petri dishes to see how similar they were,
[00:06:35] we saw that cosmic seeds began to grow
[00:06:38] a few days earlier. And
[00:06:41] then, when it got warmer, May approached, around
[00:06:44] mid-April, we planted seeds in pots
[00:06:48] to plant them later in the greenhouse. Now
[00:06:51] you can see what all this led to, plants grown from cosmic
[00:06:55] seeds showed higher similarity, on average, by
[00:06:59] about 15% compared to terrestrial seeds,
[00:07:03] but this indicates that microgravity and cosmic
[00:07:07] radiation had a stimulating effect on our seeds. According to
[00:07:10] popular vote, the taste, aroma,
[00:07:14] texture and appearance of cosmic
[00:07:17] tomatoes surpasses terrestrial
[00:07:20] analogous fruits.
[00:07:23] The results of the experiment on growing space tomatoes will be
[00:07:26] presented at scientific
[00:07:28] conferences in the future.
[00:07:35] A high-profile corruption scandal on the Polish border. Eight customs officers
[00:07:39] are accused of organizing smuggling for 27 million.
[00:07:57] At the last meeting, one of the accused partially admitted
[00:08:00] guilt, making a voluntary confession for the amount of
[00:08:03] 65,000 euros. The defendants face up to 10
[00:08:06] years in prison.
[00:08:09] The Colombian authorities introduced an emergency regime after a deadly
[00:08:12] earthquake on August 10. According to reports, more than
[00:08:16] 230 people died, and about a thousand were injured. Due to
[00:08:19] the destruction of production and transport infrastructure,
[00:08:22] the export of Colombian coffee has almost completely stopped.
[00:08:26] The work of local coffee factories was disrupted due to power outages
[00:08:30] and communication problems. I would like to note that before
[00:08:33] this, Colombia exported about 1 million bags of coffee
[00:08:36] per month. And in France, an orange level
[00:08:39] of threat has been declared in half of the departments due to
[00:08:43] forest fires and heat. In the country, strict restrictions on
[00:08:47] water use have been introduced, the largest rivers are shallowing.
[00:08:50] The drought has also hit the food
[00:08:52] sector. Wheat harvest in France fell by
[00:08:56] 8%. Due to soil drying, potato tubers
[00:08:59] have shrunk so much in size that producers are reporting
[00:09:03] the disruption of contracts for the supply of standard French
[00:09:06] fries. According to estimates, the total damage to the country's military-industrial complex has already
[00:09:10] exceeded 3 billion euros.
[00:09:22] The highest level of fire danger has been declared in Spain, in some areas the population is being
[00:09:26] evacuated, on the roads 3,500
[00:09:29] police officers are on duty, it is feared that the influx of tourists
[00:09:33] who came to watch today's solar eclipse in
[00:09:36] rural areas will provoke new
[00:09:38] fires.
[00:09:42] to revise
[00:09:50] budgets, cut support for wars in the world in order to feed
[00:09:54] themselves and not freeze in winter, expert
[00:09:56] opinion. The heat has ceased to be a temporary inconvenience
[00:10:00] and has turned into a structural economic
[00:10:03] barrier for Europe. EU countries
[00:10:06] have to allocate trillions of euros to the budget, not
[00:10:10] just for a green transition, but for... rigid adaptation of infrastructure,
[00:10:14] from strengthening power grids and building
[00:10:17] desalination plants to rebuilding logistics routes,
[00:10:21] otherwise each subsequent summer will burn out not only...
[00:10:25] fields, but also percentage points of economic
[00:10:28] growth: drought, shallowing river arteries,
[00:10:31] extreme temperatures, inflict direct blows on agriculture,
[00:10:34] energy, logistics, labor
[00:10:38] productivity. The main and fastest consequence is the rise
[00:10:42] in food prices, Southern Europe, Spain, Italy,
[00:10:45] Greece, Southern France are experiencing a catastrophic drop
[00:10:48] in yields. In Spain, the harvest has almost halved, which
[00:10:52] caused a jump in prices for the product by more than
[00:10:55] 50 to 70% throughout
[00:10:57] Europe.
[00:11:04] Procurement as a tool for developing competition and
[00:11:06] the research economy in general. How to find the line
[00:11:10] between justified and unjustified intermediation, what
[00:11:14] industries require increased attention and what innovations in
[00:11:17] the field of procurement at their own expense should now be taken into account, in
[00:11:21] July, legislative changes came into force. The most...
[00:11:25] questions related to the field of procurement will be answered by the guests of the
[00:11:28] Economic Environment project. Do not miss it tonight,
[00:11:32] after the Panorama on Belarus-1, and also on our website newsby and
[00:11:36] multimedia portal
[00:11:37] videobel.
[00:11:41] Billions under control,
[00:11:43] transparency, economy and fair competition.
[00:11:47] The regulations that are currently in force are really
[00:11:50] structured in such a way that this balance is
[00:11:53] achieved. How procurement increases the efficiency of the economy,
[00:11:57] when there is guaranteed demand, then the supply
[00:12:00] is formed quite actively, when intermediation is
[00:12:03] justified, they buy furniture, yes, we start
[00:12:06] to figure out, roughly speaking, and the old one can still
[00:12:09] serve, and what has changed in the order of acquisition at its own
[00:12:13] expense, the most important step towards
[00:12:16] transparency, towards efficiency,
[00:12:19] towards moving away from corrupt components. The main
[00:12:22] myths will be dispelled in the economic environment, after
[00:12:25] the panorama.
[00:12:34] Strengthening the institution of the family, popularization of traditional
[00:12:37] values and regulation of legislation in the field
[00:12:40] of marital relations. Today these issues are being discussed by deputies with
[00:12:44] representatives of relevant departments and structures at an offsite seminar in
[00:12:48] the Luzhetsky historical and cultural complex. Family policy in
[00:12:51] our country is being given more and more attention, and as practice shows.
[00:13:25] fairs of a new format, this season, the school open air
[00:13:28] market is not only trading rows with stationery, school
[00:13:32] uniforms, sportswear and accessories, now there are
[00:13:35] interactive activities for children, fashion shows of new collections,
[00:13:38] photo zones, street food and a concert program.
[00:13:42] Soligorsk will host the first school shopping event on August
[00:13:46] 15, and exactly a week later, regional fairs will be held
[00:13:49] simultaneously in four large cities: Borisov, Zhodino,
[00:13:53] Slutsk and Molodechno.
[00:13:55] in the city of Molodechno, right where we are, in the central square,
[00:13:59] a regional fair will be held on August
[00:14:02] 22, and we also decided this
[00:14:06] year to please the guests and residents of the city by arranging an additional day, that is,
[00:14:09] on August 21, 22, we are waiting
[00:14:12] for everyone in the central square, that is, there will be a very
[00:14:15] interesting event, Belarusian
[00:14:18] manufacturers will come, and a show of collections
[00:14:21] of Belarusian manufacturers will also be organized. That is,
[00:14:25] so that people can see how it looks on
[00:14:28] models, and also be able to purchase these
[00:14:32] models. Attractions and catering
[00:14:34] facilities will come, that is, this year the fair was decided
[00:14:38] to be called for children and their parents,
[00:14:41] school fairs, first-grader corners, additional sections
[00:14:44] with an expanded assortment, for the comfort of buyers, different
[00:14:48] formats, including stationary retail outlets with
[00:14:51] school supplies, children's clothing and shoes.
[00:14:57] Minsk region until September 5. In
[00:15:01] Belarus, the charity event "To school with a kind heart" has started. BRSM
[00:15:04] volunteers help prepare children for September 1. First of all,
[00:15:07] large families and single-parent families, as well as children who
[00:15:11] find themselves in difficult life situations, will receive support.
[00:15:14] Throughout the country, school supplies are collected and
[00:15:18] charity events are held. Tomorrow at
[00:15:21] the National Library of Belarus the main event of the action will take place.
[00:16:38] audio recordings were collected, some audio recordings
[00:16:41] were taken from open sources, then they
[00:16:44] were annotated by specialists, ornithologists,
[00:16:48] then processed and prepared for training
[00:16:52] models, this is the Kislavary bird language, forest, park, even
[00:16:55] a balcony, just press record and the neural network will tell who is nearby, the
[00:16:59] plans are to replenish the database so that the algorithm recognizes even
[00:17:02] more species, when a person goes to the dacha in
[00:17:05] the forest, hears...
[00:17:55] analysts manually, now algorithms do it in
[00:17:58] a matter of minutes, so that it is convenient, so that people do not
[00:18:02] stand at stops for a long time, well, on the one hand, on the other hand,
[00:18:05] so that transport is used,
[00:18:08] because why do we need an extra electric bus? For building these
[00:18:12] public transport schedules, including
[00:18:15] electric buses, methods of artificial intelligence
[00:18:18] can be used, we are currently engaged in such
[00:18:22] algorithms, they are called nature-inspired algorithms, they work in such
[00:18:26] a way that there is one schedule, for example,
[00:18:29] there is another schedule, these are mom and dad, then we take part
[00:18:33] of one schedule, part of another. So we get a third schedule - these
[00:18:37] are offspring, then we cross these offspring, well,
[00:18:41] each time we evaluate, so, which one is better, we choose the best
[00:18:44] one. This is optimization of routes and saving resources for
[00:18:48] the passenger, this means predictability, the bus arrives
[00:18:51] on time, the intervals of movement are stable, and behind this
[00:18:54] is artificial intelligence. A thousand calculations in seconds, and these are just
[00:18:57] two examples out of dozens that are being developed at the Joint Institute
[00:19:01] for Informatics Problems. Neural networks do not replace people, they become
[00:19:05] assistants, they remove routine,
[00:19:07] so that scientists can solve problems that change
[00:19:11] the world for the better.
[00:19:21] of the Belarusian Union of Women and its handiwork opened in Minsk.
[00:19:25] The focus is on the work of Tatyana Alekhnovich. She is a leading
[00:19:28] referent in the department of control and supervision of construction
[00:19:32] of the State Standard. But her free time is completely devoted
[00:19:35] to embroidery, in 2009, with
[00:19:39] the help of a friend who showed her wonderful works,
[00:19:42] very beautiful and showed me the first crosses,
[00:19:45] how to embroider, I think it's very urgent,
[00:19:49] long, I tried myself in different techniques, like here I embroidered
[00:19:53] with ribbons and beads, but it's not the same,
[00:19:56] I still return to my crosses, if you
[00:19:59] like it, you will always find time,
[00:20:03] sometimes you realize that the work of this woman is
[00:20:37] one of the powerful drivers of regional development, the
[00:20:40] transformation of the industry in the north of the country is approached
[00:20:43] comprehensively in the development of a digital tourist atlas
[00:20:47] of the Vitebsk region. The application will gather all the potential
[00:20:50] of the region, specialists from information centers will help you choose a direction
[00:20:54] or create a route, their network will eventually cover
[00:20:57] all districts of the region.
