[00:00:56] Live on air, panorama in the studio. Elena Savyova, hello!
[00:01:00] Without slowing down, our farmers continue the battle for the harvest. As of
[00:01:03] today, for milk and grain, including rapeseed, it's over 7 million
[00:01:07] tons. All from the peaceful front in our broadcast.
[00:01:11] Cosmic triumvirate, a unique parade of planets, the peak of the Perseid
[00:01:15] meteor shower, and literally at this moment, a total solar
[00:01:18] eclipse. Several celestial wonders are observed by Earth's
[00:01:21] inhabitants today. Purchases as a development tool, where is the line between
[00:01:25] justified and unjustified mediation? The guests of the
[00:01:29] Economic Environment project will answer the most pressing questions.
[00:01:32] My colleagues will complement the picture of the day. The
[00:01:35] country's grain growers are speeding up the harvesting pace and working around the clock,
[00:01:39] doing everything to make the common loaf even heavier. Technology,
[00:01:43] quality and discipline, a report from the fields of the Mogilev
[00:01:46] region.
[00:01:48] We keep our finger on the pulse of the country. An open dialogue, where there were no closed
[00:01:52] topics, took place in Lida with Minister of Culture Marat
[00:01:55] Markov. What worries Belarusians today, we will tell
[00:01:58] in the panorama.
[00:02:01] In Kyrgyzstan, the search for three missing climbers continues, two of them
[00:02:04] are Belarusians, one is a Lithuanian. The rescue operation uses drones with thermal imagers
[00:02:08] and a helicopter. The only problem is the weather conditions. What
[00:02:12] is known by this hour, we will tell you in more detail in the
[00:02:14] report.
[00:02:17] Smart algorithms for the city and forest. Neural networks
[00:02:20] draw up transport schedules and recognize the voices of birds. We will tell
[00:02:24] about the latest developments in our
[00:02:26] material.
[00:02:30] old gardens, 2,500 trees per hectare, a young gardener
[00:02:33] grows Belarusian apples, how a hobby became
[00:02:37] a business, where the products are exported, we will tell you in the
[00:02:40] material.
[00:02:43] Creation of a tourism brand, opening of information centers for
[00:02:47] travelers, dialogue with investors on the ground, how the Vitebsk
[00:02:50] region will develop the tourism industry, what has already
[00:02:53] been done and what remains to be done, we will tell you in the
[00:02:56] report.
[00:03:00] Our farmers continue the battle for the harvest, the peaceful front, that's what
[00:03:03] they call the harvest campaign, when food security protection is at stake,
[00:03:07] and victory is called achievements in the grain field,
[00:03:11] new hectares cultivated per day, thousands of tons of
[00:03:14] dried grain per day. According to operational
[00:03:17] data, as of August 12, 26, for milk and green, including
[00:03:21] rapeseed, 7,165,000
[00:03:24] tons, and this is more than one and a half million more than on
[00:03:28] the same day last year.
[00:03:30] So, the Brest region has crossed the one and a half
[00:03:34] million mark, the Grodno region will soon reach
[00:03:37] the same mark, the grain growers of the Minsk region
[00:03:40] have 1,886 thousand tons of the new
[00:03:43] harvest. The contribution to the common loaf of the Gomel and Mogilev
[00:03:47] regions is 937 and
[00:03:49] 796. Tons. In the Vitebsk region,
[00:03:53] almost 600 thousand. In total, grain, including rapeseed
[00:03:57] without corn, has been harvested from 80%.
[00:04:19] He studied, returned to his small homeland, continued the dynasty of grain growers, that's
[00:04:23] how the young machine operator Ivan Zdorovikov simply talks about himself, he understood
[00:04:27] the main thing, that you need to approach field work with soul. Then the land
[00:04:30] will repay, as this time with a good harvest. My parents,
[00:04:34] it turns out, also
[00:04:37] work in agriculture, my father on a combine, I started
[00:04:40] as his assistant, now I decided to do it myself, this year
[00:04:44] I received a new combine, our domestic one,
[00:04:48] we work, we try, this season we have already threshed almost
[00:04:51] 300, the weather helps us this summer, so I think we
[00:04:55] will cope with everything quickly, the drying complexes of farms do not stop
[00:04:59] for days, so that... the grain lays down of high quality, and this is both bread
[00:05:02] and feed, which should always be in abundance. The harvesting
[00:05:06] of spring barley is nearing completion, we process about 1,000
[00:05:10] tons per day, the moisture content is now good, up to
[00:05:13] 15%, which allows us to save gas, reduce
[00:05:16] the cost of grain harvesting and process it
[00:05:19] quickly. A strategically important company for the country is under the control of the head
[00:05:23] of state, including the course of the harvesting campaign, the president discussed
[00:05:26] the day before with the leadership of the Council of Ministers. How are things in the fields, how much grain
[00:05:30] can we put in the bins, the specialized minister personally answered
[00:05:33] the question. In general, for grain we
[00:05:36] plan to reach 11.5 million tons.
[00:05:40] Harvesting is underway, yes, so this year. taking
[00:05:43] into account the weather conditions, they are good,
[00:05:47] we have worked with all regions, yes we didn't have such weather
[00:05:51] for agricultural crops this year, not in my
[00:05:54] memory, today everything is there, even at night today
[00:05:58] it rained at night, not that it would rain now and
[00:06:02] a day would be lost, it rained at night, before lunch
[00:06:05] the crops will dry out, after lunch you can harvest, or maybe
[00:06:09] earlier, that's up to the leaders and specialists. working
[00:06:12] for one, common result, Belarusian tradition, by the way, the Mogilev
[00:06:16] region is preparing to join the ranks of millionaires in terms of grain threshed.
[00:06:19] Over forty crews and additional mechanized
[00:06:22] detachments have been sent to the farms of the Mogilev region. Another tradition,
[00:06:26] if you coped yourself, help your neighbors. The redeployment
[00:06:29] of equipment began to where the pace needs to be accelerated. This support was received by
[00:06:33] the grain growers of the production giant, the Venderzh branch of the Mogilev district.
[00:06:36] The grain area here is almost 4,000 hectares, not counting corn,
[00:06:40] it will come to that, but for now...
[00:06:42] The yield is very good this year, the year was
[00:06:45] favorable
[00:06:49] for the formation of the harvest of both rapeseed and
[00:06:52] spring and winter grains. At the moment, we are already harvesting
[00:06:56] wheat, the yield is about 40-43
[00:06:59] centners per hectare. We need to quickly harvest and prepare for
[00:07:03] sowing winter grains. We came from Kirovsky
[00:07:05] district, this is not the first business trip, it's probably the fourth,
[00:07:09] the weather let us down at first, then it was good. everything was also
[00:07:13] great, I've been working since eighty-fourth, started before
[00:07:17] the army, then the army, all
[00:07:19] the time, in short, this is the fourth business trip in a row
[00:07:22] on a new combine, lunch is tasty, good,
[00:07:26] by the way, about food, the main requirement, that it be tasty, nutritious
[00:07:29] and balanced, the field of Lyuks-Agro farm provides
[00:07:32] both first and second courses for farmers, everything
[00:07:36] to restore strength, the food is varied, it does not repeat
[00:07:39] itself during the week, solyanka.
[00:08:33] At the moment, 50% has been harvested. The grain is dry, we harvest it immediately, process it and deliver it to
[00:08:36] the elevator. The local KHP barely manages to receive grain trucks, mandatory
[00:08:40] quality assessment and only then storage in the bins, no time to get tired,
[00:08:44] the laboratory assistants joke, the country must have bread. The very first and main
[00:08:48] task is to correctly take samples,
[00:08:50] to assess the quality of the
[00:08:53] grain batch. Then we determine the moisture content, the test
[00:08:56] weight. Over a hundred machines per day are received by the Klemovichi KHP, which is no less than
[00:09:00] 3,000 tons of grain daily, fodder, food will be enough
[00:09:04] to ensure full loading of processing lines for a whole
[00:09:07] year. Andrei Yastreba, Vasiliev, first
[00:09:10] information.
[00:09:20] From earthly matters to heavenly ones. Today, residents
[00:09:23] of Earth witnessed a triumvirate of cosmic
[00:09:26] wonders. Three rare astronomical phenomena coincided in one
[00:09:30] calendar day. Dawn began with a unique
[00:09:33] parade of planets. At night the sky will be illuminated by the peak of the famous
[00:09:36] Perseid meteor shower. But the main and most
[00:09:39] anticipated event remains the total
[00:09:43] solar eclipse. Right at this moment, the eclipse in all its fullness
[00:09:46] is being observed by residents of northern Spain, as well as Iceland, where
[00:09:50] the solar disk was completely covered by the lunar
[00:09:53] shadow, and if in Spain the eclipse will reach its
[00:09:56] peak in the next few minutes, then in Reykjavik the sun is gradually beginning to
[00:10:00] shed the shadow of Earth's satellite. These unique
[00:10:04] futuristic shots are already spreading across all channels and
[00:10:07] social networks. Let's
[00:10:08] take a look.
[00:10:19] A few minutes ago, the sun became almost
[00:10:22] invisible, or rather, turned into a black... disk framed by
[00:10:26] bright rays in many other regions of Western
[00:10:29] Europe, however, here the eclipse is still not
[00:10:32] total. In London, Edinburgh, Dublin and
[00:10:36] Zurich, the lunar shadow covered 9
[00:10:39] of the solar disk. Slightly less impressive, this rare phenomenon
[00:10:43] turned out to be in lands located further east in Rome and
[00:10:46] Berlin, the moon eclipsed the sun by only 3/4.
[00:10:50] Across Europe, the eclipse is nearing its end, in the next 40
[00:10:53] minutes to an hour the sun will slip out of the darkness, only to plunge
[00:10:57] into it again, now setting below
[00:11:00] the horizon. In the United States, the eclipse will be visible
[00:11:03] in a few hours, but it will be partial.
[00:11:07] The solar disk will be hidden in the shadow by only a quarter, and somewhere
[00:11:11] not at all by 1/2.
[00:11:14] To observe cosmic phenomena, millions
[00:11:17] of tourists arrived in Iceland, engulfed by forest fires,
[00:11:21] Spain. Was Europe ready for a bright
[00:11:25] astronomical show? Oleg Romanov found out.
[00:11:29] A real astronomical show in three acts for the inhabitants of the earth. Early
[00:11:33] in the morning, even before sunrise, a parade of planets unfolded above the horizon,
[00:11:36] lining up in a perfect line. This happens extremely
[00:11:40] rarely due to the different orbits and speeds of celestial bodies, but
[00:11:43] the main thing is that seeing such a parade with the naked eye is an extremely
[00:11:47] rare stroke of luck.
[00:11:53] And these are already mesmerizing shots of the Perseid
[00:11:56] meteor shower. The peak of the summer meteor shower is expected tonight,
[00:11:59] this year it coincided with the new moon. The sky will be
[00:12:03] maximally dark, which will allow up to 100 meteors per
[00:12:06] hour to be recorded. A repetition of such ideal conditions, without lunar
[00:12:09] illumination, is predicted only in 2045.
[00:12:12] However, the central event of the day remains the total
[00:12:16] solar eclipse. For continental Europe,
[00:12:19] the first in the last 27 years.
[00:12:23] There is a misconception that an eclipse
[00:12:25] is an extremely rare phenomenon, they happen, say, once every 50
[00:12:29] or 100 years, but this is not true, they all simply occur in different
[00:12:32] parts, the trajectory of the moon's movement changes, it passes through
[00:12:36] your locality, so for us residents of Pennsylvania, a beautiful
[00:12:39] eclipse similar to what happened 2 years ago, will not happen until
[00:12:43] 2099, but somewhere on Earth, solar
[00:12:46] eclipses happen frequently, and you can
[00:12:49] go there to see it, people take
[00:12:52] cruises, fly on airplanes or go to... places they always wanted
[00:12:56] to visit, just to see the eclipse.
[00:13:00] This is exactly the scenario that millions of hunters for cosmic wonders from
[00:13:03] all over the world are following today, who have flocked to Europe. The main points
[00:13:07] of attraction for astrotourists have become Iceland and Spain. Hotels
[00:13:11] in Valencia, Bilbao and Reikjavik were 100% booked
[00:13:15] a year ago, and housing prices on the Iberian Peninsula
[00:13:19] soared by
[00:13:20] 300-400%.
[00:13:23] Spain is the main country that will observe the eclipse, only
[00:13:26] a small part of Iceland and a small part of Greenland,
[00:13:30] the weather will probably be bad in
[00:13:32] most
[00:13:35] places. I'm going to Tarragona, I have a friend there on the coast, I'm going to watch
[00:13:39] the eclipse from about 4 degrees from the sea, it
[00:13:42] should be wonderful, I mean to see the whole ring, to see everything,
[00:13:46] I'm so excited.
[00:13:49] I'm looking for a place where I can observe the eclipse not far from
[00:13:52] Madrid, without going far, because ... according to the news, it's complete
[00:13:56] madness what's happening on the coast. From an
[00:13:59] economic point of view, an unprecedented financial boom is recorded,
[00:14:02] however, for local authorities, such an influx of people has turned into a serious headache.
[00:14:06] Southern Europe is currently on fire with forest fires. In
[00:14:09] Spain, in some areas, the evacuation of the population is underway. On
[00:14:13] the roads, 3,500 police officers are on duty. It is feared
[00:14:16] that the influx of tourists who came to watch the eclipse in rural areas
[00:14:20] will provoke new fires. Completely different, but no less severe
[00:14:24] challenges. before Iceland, another key point on the map where
[00:14:27] a total eclipse can be observed, here in the area of the Ovika
[00:14:31] River in the western fjords, a stream of travelers poured in, many times
[00:14:35] exceeding the population of a number of regions of the country. Due to 100%
[00:14:38] occupancy of hotels and campsites, hundreds of tourists
[00:14:41] set up impromptu camps in protected areas, which
[00:14:44] threatens the fragile Arctic
[00:14:46] ecosystem.
[00:14:49] In Iceland, this impressive landscape with all these
[00:14:52] volcanoes, lava fields, huge.
[00:16:07] nature sort of slows down, and then you look up and
[00:16:10] it's incredibly moving to see a pitch-black moon in
[00:16:14] the sky, surrounded by this beautiful aura, the solar
[00:16:17] corona. Every time I see it, I get goosebumps,
[00:16:21] a lump in my throat, and I cry out loud, it's like nothing
[00:16:24] else. The eclipse is the perfect time
[00:16:27] to distract from the mundane, to think about the eternal, especially since we
[00:16:31] rarely do that. Oleg Romanov, Olga Davidovich, first
[00:16:35] information.
[00:16:37] Although the full phase of the eclipse passed through Spain, Iceland and
[00:16:41] Greenland, just half an hour ago in Belarus it could also be
[00:16:45] observed, but only as a partial solar
[00:16:47] eclipse. For our latitudes, this is a rather rare phenomenon, and therefore
[00:16:51] there was considerable interest in it. Our correspondent Andrei
[00:16:54] Kozlov witnessed this unusual spectacle and will tell
[00:16:58] how Belarusians
[00:16:59] prepared for it.
[00:17:04] Yes, actually, it's a great, you know, value at this moment of the eclipse. You see right now
[00:17:08] these are the last moments when we can see it, show it beautifully in our
[00:17:12] news, and we can even pay attention now that, you know, many people want
[00:17:15] to capture it, come here, show it on social networks,
[00:17:19] Instagram, TikTok, and so that, you know, this moment will also be remembered,
[00:17:23] because it's truly such an unusual moment of a natural phenomenon, and even
[00:17:26] here we meet different people who want to see it,
[00:17:30] for example, we managed to catch a young man, Zhenya, who is studying
[00:17:34] at BSU, yes, and you tell me what you were doing, floppies,
[00:17:37] which, probably, our operator's generation remembers, I don't remember either due to
[00:17:41] my youth, what does it allow you to do, well, to see
[00:17:44] it, it blocks the sunlight, here if you move it, it will be like a film for
[00:17:48] photos, so it darkens like sunglasses, just so you don't
[00:17:52] get a retinal burn, and
[00:17:55] we darken the sun and see the moon, which
[00:17:58] covers the sun, so - let's look closer,
[00:18:02] yes, this is it, right here, yes, to see this
[00:18:05] moment, aha, it's like... a red dot, yes, so you can
[00:18:09] see this moment thanks to just such
[00:18:13] a floppy disk, how did you find out about all this? Through the Internet, of course, well, in
[00:18:16] childhood, once upon a time, in physics at some school
[00:18:20] we watched a solar eclipse, I don't even remember when it
[00:18:23] was, using these floppy disks. Now I learned from the children, I work
[00:18:27] at school, I learned from the children that it will happen, I think, oh, great, I have a whole folder
[00:18:31] of these in my office, a whole folder, why is it important for you
[00:18:34] to watch this, you know, you can see it, we see it with you, yes... Well,
[00:18:46] an unusual natural phenomenon, let's say,
[00:18:50] an interesting phenomenon, when something unusual, everyone wants to see it, because then
[00:18:54] everyone will tell, here it's the same situation, and you saw
[00:18:57] a solar, and I saw a solar eclipse, or even cooler, go up to someone
[00:19:01] and ask, say, that I saw a solar eclipse, and did you watch
[00:19:04] it? Then it's a good story, well... keep watching, while
[00:19:08] it's the last minutes, I'll end our broadcast here, in general,
[00:19:11] you see, the last moments, so beautifully there beyond the horizon, beyond Minsk, towards
[00:19:15] the other side of the planet, the eclipse will be complete, for us it's not quite complete, but nevertheless for
[00:19:19] other inhabitants of our beautiful Earth,
[00:19:23] these natural phenomena can be seen, well, from Minsk, as we see, among other things,
[00:19:26] how beautiful it is in our summer city, thank you,
[00:19:30] the frames of the solar eclipse in our broadcast Andrei
[00:19:33] Kozlov tried to capture them together with the residents of Minsk,
[00:19:36] the event... literally flooded social networks, users massively
[00:19:40] publish photos and videos of the eclipse, creating the effect of a cosmic
[00:19:43] flash mob. By the way, this is the first total solar
[00:19:47] eclipse over continental Europe since 1999.
[00:19:51] The next such spectacle in the European part of the planet will happen only
[00:19:54] in 35 years, in 2061, so
[00:19:58] the frames and impressions of this evening
[00:20:01] are worth their weight in gold. In Belarus, the eclipse began approximately at
[00:20:05] 20:10 Minsk time.
[00:20:37] The liquidation of the consequences of the earthquake continues, the natural disaster
[00:20:41] caused the death of at least 250 people,
[00:20:44] the exact number of victims is still unknown, as more than
[00:20:48] ... are missing.
[00:21:23] Rescuers work around the clock, from time to time, minutes of silence are announced
[00:21:27] here, but the chances of hearing calls for help from under the rubble
[00:21:31] are becoming increasingly faint.
[00:21:33] The Lithuanian government will allocate
[00:21:35] 50 million euros for
[00:21:39] digging anti-tank ditches along the borders of Belarus and Russia.
[00:21:42] Each trench will be 20 m wide, but
[00:21:46] in some places they plan to make them 150 m
[00:21:49] long. It is also planned to complete the eviction of local
[00:21:53] residents from the territory of the future Kopčiamiestis training ground.
[00:21:56] The authorities remained deaf to protests and simply expropriate
[00:22:00] land from owners, citing national
[00:22:03] defense interests. And national interests are primarily the needs
[00:22:07] of militarization. In Lithuania, 2,000 Bundeswehr
[00:22:10] soldiers are already stationed today. There is a catastrophic shortage of
[00:22:14] volunteers, but the Germans promise to increase the number of their brigade
[00:22:17] to 500 bayonets next year. Even if this means
[00:22:21] reintroducing universal military
[00:22:24] service. Poles are increasingly zealous
[00:22:27] in advocating for war to the last Ukrainian. According to
[00:22:31] new sociological survey data, 67% of Polish
[00:22:35] citizens support the deportation of able-bodied
[00:22:38] Ukrainian men to their homeland if they do not have
[00:22:41] work. Poles who approve of this idea are well
[00:22:45] aware that it means the actual sending of those being deported
[00:22:49] to
[00:23:20] evade
[00:23:20] mobilization.
[00:23:27] Establish facts, find meanings, verify trends. The new information
[00:23:31] marathon "Pulse of the Country" continues to travel across different regions
[00:23:34] of Belarus. This unique project allows ordinary Belarusians
[00:23:37] to directly ask questions of interest to government representatives,
[00:23:41] analysts, and scientists. Today, such
[00:23:44] a dialogue about the important and the sublime took place in the current capital of Belarusian
[00:23:47] writing, Lida.
[00:24:50] therefore, for me, the issue of youth is always very acute:
[00:24:53] etiquette rules, psychology of style,
[00:24:57] social networks, external image, portrait, why
[00:25:00] we maintain social networks, so I asked him this question, he noted
[00:25:04] that it was very interesting, I heard everything I wanted, I
[00:25:08] hope the audience also found it interesting, off-camera there were more personal
[00:25:11] questions and naturally where there is an opportunity
[00:25:14] for the ministry to help, we will help, because they
[00:25:18] are all within the framework of the law, that's the main thing,
[00:25:21] the second point, well, when people thank you for the meeting, when you
[00:25:25] really see quite a lively conversation, when you
[00:25:29] see people's eyes, in my opinion, you understand that you didn't come here for nothing,
[00:25:33] and that these events, which, well, we won't hide it, they
[00:25:36] are organized and organized specifically to feel the pulse
[00:25:40] of the country, and in different regions, not only in large
[00:25:42] cities, but in any, and you
[00:25:46] know that this is planned to continue, including down to
[00:25:49] the district level. and so on, issues of
[00:25:52] national and demographic security, the military-political situation
[00:25:55] on the Belarusian border, the socio-economic situation in the country
[00:25:58] concern the residents of Polotsk, Andrei Bogadel met
[00:26:02] with representatives of the district's labor collectives and private businesses. Having thoroughly
[00:26:04] dotted all the i's and crossed all the t's
[00:26:08] in the big Belarusian geopolitics, the meeting participants noted
[00:26:11] the importance of such events for themselves.
[00:26:14] We work for the economic well-being of our
[00:26:18] country, the energy security of our country. Therefore, this
[00:26:22] is important interaction with border
[00:26:24] states, with neighboring states. In general, what is happening around our country
[00:26:28] concerns everyone, not just an employee, as...
[00:26:32] just a physical person, the question is how
[00:26:36] we will staff our future employees, because there is
[00:26:39] an opportunity to teach them, help them, develop, you can improve your qualifications with
[00:26:43] additional education, so the conditions
[00:26:46] at our enterprise are specifically great, we are ready to help,
[00:26:50] develop, promote, and provide a platform for
[00:26:53] development. The "Pulse of the Country" project
[00:26:56] will continue not only in regional centers of large cities of Belarus, a series
[00:27:00] of meetings is expected in small settlements.
[00:28:02] by chance, since proposals are already coming in, primarily
[00:28:05] from the Supreme Court, from the practice
[00:28:09] of considering civil cases on issues
[00:28:11] of marriage and family relations, as well as from the Ministry of Justice
[00:28:15] on issues of further improvement
[00:28:18] of the ZAGS bodies, from the Minsk
[00:28:21] city executive committee, therefore, it is not excluded
[00:28:24] that we
[00:28:27] will return to the consideration
[00:28:30] code.
[00:28:32] I would note that about a month remains before the start of the fourth session,
[00:28:36] now the deputy corps is actively forming a portfolio of documents,
[00:28:40] among the draft laws that parliamentarians plan to consider, there is a block
[00:28:43] of issues in the agricultural sector, in industry, as well as documents
[00:28:47] concerning the digital ruble and the ratification of a number
[00:28:50] of international agreements. Our
[00:28:53] scientists keep their finger on the pulse, it is thanks to their efforts
[00:28:56] at the United Institute of Informatics Problems of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus,
[00:29:00] that neural networks are mastering new areas. One of the developments
[00:29:03] creates schedules for transport, the algorithms
[00:29:06] analyze passenger traffic, traffic jams, weather, so that
[00:29:10] buses run exactly on schedule. Another
[00:29:13] neural network that recognizes bird voices, how
[00:29:16] technology is firmly entering our lives, Kristina
[00:29:19] Sushchenya will tell. Our application recognized that there are pigeons here, which
[00:29:23] are present almost everywhere, and
[00:29:26] chaffinch. For the neural network to learn to distinguish birds, it was
[00:29:29] fed thousands of audios, scientists collected.
[00:29:46] The creation of the application generally took not only the application, but mainly
[00:29:50] the entire system, it generally lasted for 5
[00:29:53] years, where the first 3 years were
[00:29:56] dedicated to collecting audio recordings, some
[00:30:00] audio recordings. were taken from
[00:30:03] open sources, then they were annotated by specialists,
[00:30:07] ornithologists, then
[00:30:10] processed and prepared for training
[00:30:13] models. A kind of dictionary of bird language, forest, park, even
[00:30:16] a balcony, just press record and the neural network will say who is nearby. The plans
[00:30:20] are to replenish the database so that the algorithm recognizes even more
[00:30:23] species. When a person goes to the dacha in the forest
[00:30:27] and hears the singing of some birds, he becomes interested in what
[00:30:31] kind of birds they are. That is, in the application,
[00:30:35] you can click on the microphone
[00:30:37] button, that is, it will record your
[00:30:41] surroundings, then stop
[00:30:44] this recording at some point and click
[00:30:47] the "start recognition" button. Well, after enjoying the singing of the birds, we return to the city.
[00:30:51] While we heard finches and sparrows, artificial intelligence was solving a different
[00:30:54] problem. It's not for nothing that we are near a bus stop, and it's not for nothing that public
[00:30:58] transport arrives exactly on time, a coincidence that neural networks don't
[00:31:02] think that way. Routes, passengers, everything is under
[00:31:05] the control of algorithms. The task is not easy, it is necessary to take into account
[00:31:08] passenger flow during peak hours, the number of cars on the line, traffic jams,
[00:31:12] weather and dozens of other parameters. Previously, dispatchers and
[00:31:16] analysts handled this manually, now algorithms do it in
[00:31:19] a matter of minutes, so that it is convenient, so that people do not
[00:31:23] stand long at stops, on the one
[00:31:26] hand, and on the other hand, so that transport is used efficiently, because
[00:31:30] why do we need extra electric buses? For building these
[00:31:32] public transport schedules, including
[00:31:36] electric buses, one can use artificial
[00:31:39] intelligence methods, we are currently engaged
[00:31:43] in such... algorithms are called natural
[00:31:47] algorithms, they work in such a way that there is one
[00:31:50] schedule, let's say, there is another schedule, these are
[00:31:54] mom and dad, then we take part of one schedule, part of another,
[00:31:58] so we get a third schedule, these are descendants, then we cross
[00:32:02] these descendants, well, each time we evaluate, so,
[00:32:05] which one is better, we choose the best one, this is optimization
[00:32:09] of routes and saving resources for the passenger, this means
[00:32:12] predictability, the bus arrives on time, intervals are
[00:32:15] stable, and behind this is artificial intelligence. A thousand
[00:32:18] calculations in seconds, and these are just two examples out of dozens of what
[00:32:22] is being developed at the Joint Institute for Informatics Problems. Neural networks
[00:32:26] do not replace humans, they become their assistants, removing
[00:32:29] routine so that scientists can solve problems that change
[00:32:33] the world for the better. Kristina Sushcheniya, Anatoly

[00:32:40] Procurement as a tool for developing competition, and therefore the economy
[00:32:44] as a whole. How to find the line between justified and
[00:32:47] unjustified mediation, which industries require increased
[00:32:51] attention and what innovations in the field of procurement at their own
[00:32:55] expense, should now be taken into account, in July, legislative changes came into force.
[00:32:58] The most pressing questions from the field of procurement will be answered by
[00:33:02] the guests of the Economic Environment project, don't miss it
[00:33:05] tonight after Panorama on Belarus One, and also on our
[00:33:08] website newsby and multimedia portal
[00:33:11] videobel.
[00:33:15] Billions under control,
[00:33:18] transparency, economy and fair competition.
[00:33:21] The regulatory acts that are currently in force are indeed
[00:33:24] structured in such a way as to achieve this balance.
[00:33:27] How do procurements increase the efficiency of
[00:33:30] the economy? When there is guaranteed demand, then
[00:33:33] supply is formed quite actively. When mediation
[00:33:37] is justified, they buy furniture, right, we start
[00:33:41] to figure out, roughly speaking, and the old one can still serve.
[00:33:45] And what has changed in the procedure for acquisition at one's own
[00:33:48] expense? The most important step towards transparency, towards
[00:33:52] efficiency towards getting rid of
[00:33:54] corrupt components. We will dispel the main myths in the economic
[00:33:58] environment after
[00:33:59] Panorama.
[00:34:08] Searches continue in Kyrgyzstan for missing climbers on
[00:34:12] Peak Kurumdy. Among them are Belarusians Maxim. Nikolai
[00:34:15] Sviridov, as well as a Lithuanian citizen Sergei Rubtsov. For
[00:34:19] more than a week, a rescue operation has been underway, the location of the group
[00:34:23] is still unknown. Difficult terrain and
[00:34:26] severe weather conditions complicate the search. However, this afternoon the weather was
[00:34:30] favorable, and an EMERCOM helicopter was involved in the rescue
[00:34:33] operation. A guide and high-precision
[00:34:37] video equipment are also involved in the search. Local emergency
[00:34:39] services and experienced climbers
[00:34:42] are helping to find the missing. All details. Rescue operation in
[00:34:45] Sergey Ladosev's report. We will be
[00:34:48] ready to leave on August 4 at 10:00 AM. This is the last
[00:34:52] message that the group was able to send via satellite communication.
[00:34:55] The climbers reached the summit of Peak Kurumdy on August
[00:34:58] 1. Its height is 6,614
[00:35:01] meters. This is one of the dangerous expeditions in the Pamir-Alai region.
[00:35:05] The route is technically difficult and belongs to the highest category
[00:35:08] of difficulty. On August 2, messages came from the climbers, and
[00:35:12] 2 days later they were supposed to return to the base camp. However, they never
[00:35:16] arrived. As of August 12, the location of
[00:35:19] the missing is still unknown. Unfortunately,
[00:35:22] information about the disappearance of the group of climbers was received only a few days after
[00:35:26] they stopped communicating, which led to the
[00:35:29] loss of valuable time, since the group mentioned
[00:35:32] was not officially registered. The ministry will continue to monitor the development
[00:35:36] of the situation and provide all possible assistance in the search and rescue
[00:35:39] of our citizens. Among the missing are two Belarusians -
[00:35:43] a 43-year-old design engineer from Minsk, Maxim Polyansky, and
[00:35:46] a 60-year-old resident of Soligorsk, an engineer, candidate for master
[00:35:50] of sports, Nikolai Sferidov. A 37-year-old Lithuanian citizen
[00:35:53] Sergei Rubtsov went missing with them. All
[00:35:56] professional athletes, I note, our Belarusians have the title Snow
[00:36:00] Leopard, this is how climbers who have ascended all
[00:36:03] five seven-thousanders of the post-Soviet space are called. The group has
[00:36:07] dozens of expeditions to assault Peak Kurumdy, the athletes
[00:36:10] had been preparing for more than a month. Nikolai completed this standard in
[00:36:14] 2020.
[00:36:16] So Maxim a year later in 2021, well, that
[00:36:20] is, these are very experienced guys, guys who know how to
[00:36:24] survive, know how to survive and...
[00:36:57] ascents and descent routes in order to determine the location
[00:37:01] of the climbers. After the location of the climbers is
[00:37:04] determined, real rescue operations
[00:37:07] will begin. This afternoon, thanks to good weather, an
[00:37:11] EMERCOM helicopter was involved in the rescue operation. A
[00:37:15] Swiss guide is also involved in the search, high-precision
[00:37:18] video equipment helps. Funds have been raised for the search. The main attention
[00:37:22] of rescuers is focused on the difficult ice slope between the second and third
[00:37:25] camps at an altitude of more than 5. Also, a
[00:37:28] drone was launched for surveying the area, with its help they carried out
[00:37:32] an inspection of the snow and ice ridge and slopes at altitudes from
[00:37:35] 400 m to 5. The video materials have already been submitted to the headquarters and are being
[00:37:39] analyzed, the recordings are being run through computer vision. So above
[00:37:43] the first camp, this is 5.00 m, there 5200,
[00:37:47] let's say, at this height, with
[00:37:49] the help of a helicopter and drones, so, fixed ropes
[00:37:52] were found, well, and it is actively discussed
[00:37:56] that these ropes, that traces of the
[00:37:59] expedition were found, and these ropes belong
[00:38:02] precisely to our Belarusians, to this guy from
[00:38:05] Lithuania, but I do not consider
[00:38:08] this information plausible, because the mountain is difficult,
[00:38:11] the ascent route is difficult, and just as
[00:38:15] calmly, but also confidently one can and
[00:38:18] should assume that these fixed
[00:38:22] ropes were left by previous climbers. At this very
[00:38:25] moment, relatives and friends of the climbers are continuously
[00:38:29] and hopefully following the news from Kyrgyzstan. We are very
[00:38:31] worried, me, my sister, my
[00:38:35] family, mom is in
[00:38:37] shock from all of this, from the not seeing and
[00:38:41] from the inability to do anything about it,
[00:38:44] please, I ask you very
[00:38:47] much, please continue to repost
[00:38:50] my, posts, stories,
[00:38:54] it's possible that when...
[00:39:27] true golden gardeners Belarusian farmers have learned to grow
[00:39:31] apples that are not inferior in quality to overseas ones. The heroes
[00:39:34] of our report started with 5 hectares of land and a small orchard,
[00:39:38] now it is a large-scale enterprise whose products
[00:39:42] are known and loved in our country and beyond its borders. Polina
[00:39:45] Beresneva learned the details. If you
[00:39:48] thought an apple was just a fruit, that's not quite right.
[00:39:52] In this farm it's a real art object. Just look at its
[00:39:55] perfect shape, even color, and also
[00:39:57] glossy shine, you can only see something like this in pictures in a textbook,
[00:40:01] but here it's not only grown with our own hands,
[00:40:05] but it's also ours, Belarusian. Almost three
[00:40:08] decades ago, Igor Abramchik's father had only 5 hectares
[00:40:11] of land, and as many thousands of apple trees. Now the peasant
[00:40:15] farm has grown more than 20 times and has the status of the best
[00:40:19] in the region. We see not only problems, right, but
[00:40:22] we also see something good at the end of our season,
[00:40:26] so when... something works out, you always want to
[00:40:29] run, run and move forward, so, probably, some kind of internal
[00:40:33] spark does not let us stop, we risked not having
[00:40:36] experience or practice, no one even had anyone to look at, many
[00:40:40] mistakes were made, but they all passed over time
[00:40:43] by selection methods for varieties, and then a gardening program started working in Belarus,
[00:40:47] financially supported, this is at the
[00:40:50] beginning, well, by the state, yes, by the
[00:40:53] state, plots were allocated,
[00:40:57] well... Now it works. Igor has fifteen years of experience behind him. He
[00:41:00] did not just continue his father's work, he created a modern apple
[00:41:04] paradise. Drip irrigation, anti-hail
[00:41:07] systems are installed here.
[00:41:11] And a method of feeding plants directly into the soil, and computer models
[00:41:15] help predict even the development of diseases and infections and
[00:41:18] the appearance of pests on trees. All indicators are displayed on the smartphone
[00:41:22] screen. We can - set
[00:41:25] what solution, what EC, what PH. what volume of water we should
[00:41:29] pour, or how long we should do it, it will pour
[00:41:33] itself throughout the garden and the main focus here is not just
[00:41:36] to grow, but to preserve.
[00:41:40] A cold storage complex with a controlled gas environment, here
[00:41:43] the apple seems to fall asleep in an atmosphere with minimal oxygen
[00:41:47] content and wakes up in the spring, as if it was
[00:41:50] just picked from the tree. There is good
[00:41:53] modern equipment, which is refrigeration, modern
[00:41:57] equipment for microclimate, the entire storage
[00:42:00] is computerized, we have a system that, understanding the level
[00:42:03] of ethylene in the storage, performs
[00:42:06] a complete air exchange in the chambers four times a day. A team of
[00:42:10] 100 people works here, and there is also its own equipment, almost
[00:42:13] 20 units of domestic tractors with the necessary
[00:42:17] trailers for gardening. The indicators of the apple orchard
[00:42:20] are as follows: more than 200 hectares, planting
[00:42:24] density of 2,500 trees per hectare, and
[00:42:28] apple yield is 40-80 tons per
[00:42:31] hectare. A well-thought-out and comprehensive approach to gardening is
[00:42:34] a philosophy of quality and the basis of the country's food security.
[00:42:37] Personal motivation for Igor Abramchik -
[00:42:53] Igor Abramchik's story once again proves that nothing is impossible
[00:42:56] in the world, here is the most modern equipment and
[00:43:00] technologies, such a process of growing apples is in no way inferior to European
[00:43:04] standards, it is indescribable, not only beautiful
[00:43:07] when there is a harvest in autumn, yes it...
[00:43:40] Emirates, but the main priority is the shelves of domestic
[00:43:43] stores. Polina Beresneva and Viktor Borisov, First
[00:43:46] Information.
[00:43:48] Realization of tourism potential is one of the priorities of the program
[00:43:52] of socio-economic development of our country until 2030.
[00:43:55] The industry should significantly increase its contribution to the economy
[00:43:58] of Belarus. Convenient logistics navigation, modern
[00:44:01] infrastructure, diverse tour product. The sphere must
[00:44:05] undergo serious transformation, including digital. How these
[00:44:09] tasks are being solved in the Vitebsk region,
[00:44:12] what has been done and what is yet to come, Marina
[00:44:15] Romanovskaya found out. Individual, group
[00:44:19] and thematic excursions have been developed, you can choose to your taste, you can
[00:44:22] independently plan your route, we can help
[00:44:26] you with this. Try treats at the cherry festival in Glubokoye,
[00:44:30] enjoy the aesthetics of two rivers in Dogshitsy, and also walk along
[00:44:33] the old streets of Polotsk and be sure to visit young
[00:44:37] Novopolotsk, tourist information center Vite.
[00:45:10] Tourist information centers will appear in all districts of the Vitebsk region,
[00:45:13] not only recreation should be comfortable, but also navigation, a well-planned
[00:45:17] route is important, because a tourist wants not only to get acquainted with
[00:45:21] a rich history, but also to visit cafes, restaurants, bring home
[00:45:24] souvenirs, in order to become a center of attraction, the region is set
[00:45:28] for comprehensive work, we are all united by a single goal,
[00:45:32] to create a high-quality, interesting product, new
[00:45:35] excursion objects appear, new
[00:45:37] features, routes of...
[00:45:41] The concept of secluded outdoor recreation, but with maximum
[00:45:45] comfort, among pine trees on the shore of Lake Suya, forest
[00:45:49] houses are located with breakfast, half board or full
[00:45:52] board, a format that is gaining popularity among Belarusians
[00:45:55] and foreign guests, next is a new project for
[00:45:59] family recreation. Our task is to make it modern,
[00:46:02] so that you can not just come, fish,
[00:46:06] relax, fry meat, but also
[00:46:10] go to a good spa, food, all this
[00:46:13] creates prerequisites for people to come to
[00:46:16] us, even in bad weather. The Polotsk District Executive Committee formed
[00:46:20] a pool of land plots for
[00:46:23] providing to investors for the construction of tourism
[00:46:27] facilities. Within the framework of the initiative "Tourism Potential", six
[00:46:31] investment projects are already being implemented in the district, three tourist
[00:46:35] complexes will be built, two hotels will be opened.
[00:46:38] The modernization of the room stock
[00:46:41] of an already existing hotel has been introduced,
[00:46:44] creating a high-quality tourist product, promoting it in the domestic
[00:46:48] and foreign markets, modernizing infrastructure,
[00:46:51] a task that will be solved in the coming years. Belarusian
[00:46:55] hospitality must show itself from a modern side,
[00:46:58] among the novelties in the Vitebsk region is its own tourist
[00:47:02] brand. Bear traveler is ready to meet tourists and
[00:47:05] make the image of the region more recognizable. So that everyone can
[00:47:09] choose a trip according to their family's needs, a tourist atlas of
[00:47:13] the Vitebsk region is being developed. The platform will unite the entire potential
[00:47:16] of the northern region. The menu includes specific recreation options
[00:47:20] and route features. The digital
[00:47:23] Atlas will also be for investors, tourism is also a serious
[00:47:26] impetus for the development of the territory, and here joint
[00:47:29] work of business and local
[00:47:32] authorities is important to move faster from concept to
[00:47:35] implementation. Marina Romanovskaya, Mikhail Khristoforov,
