#Agriculture #Mediterraneanregion #Drought #Waterscarcity #Climatechange #Sustainableagriculture #Cropprotection #Innovation #PataFESTproject The Mediterranean region has long grappled with the harsh reality of drought, and the situation is only expected to worsen with the anticipation of a warmer-than-average spring in 2024, as highlighted in the Joint Research Centre (JRC) report "Drought in the Mediterranean Region - January 2024". This prolonged dry spell has significantly impacted water resources, particularly in coastal regions of the Iberian Peninsula, Mediterranean islands, and northern Africa. Already, water use restrictions have been enforced in parts of Spain, Portugal, and Morocco, signaling the urgent need for sustainable water management strategies. Moreover, the diminishing snowpack in Italy, a vital water source, adds to the region's water scarcity concerns. This scarcity directly affects agricultural activities, with drying soils hampering crop growth and productivity. The JRC's warning of increased wildfire risks further compounds the challenges faced by farmers and agricultural communities, particularly in coastal Spain and northern Africa. In response to these pressing issues, there is a growing imperative to embrace innovative approaches to agricultural practices and crop protection. With rising temperatures exacerbating the spread of plant health diseases, such as those affecting potatoes, initiatives like the PataFEST project are at the forefront...

O le vevela ma le faʻatonutonu e faʻailoa mai ai le Micron-Pro, sub-micron frying oil filtration

Heat and Control has introduced Micron-ProTM, a new frying oil filtration system capable of removing sub-micron particles from hot cooking oil. Using no additives, paper, or consumable filter media, Micron-Pro can filter particles down to sub-micron size at rates up to 125 gallons/minute (~8 litre/s) of hot oil. Fines are quickly removed from the oil and filter to minimize burning and free fatty acid formation. Up to 98% of the oil can be recovered from filtered particles, depending on debris type. Update: This product is no longer available from Heat and Control.Contact Filtration Automation at www.micronpro.com.Fines are automatically discharged from the filter with no operator intervention. Low-pressure operation assures safety. Priced lower than competitive filters, Micron-Pro has minimal moving parts and requires no costly centrifuge, bellows, or conveyorized screens. Heat and Control Micron-Pro frying oil filter Fines removed by the Micron-Pro filter appear dry because most of the oil is recovered during the filtration processDesigned by Filtration Automation, Micron-Pro filters are manufactured, sold, and serviced worldwide by Heat and Control. The Micron-ProTM cooking oil filter has paid for itself in oil savings within the first year at plants producing potato chips, batter-breaded foods, and other products.

Tyrrells, a Potato Chips Manufacturer in the United Kingdom, is reportedly being put up for sale for about £100 million (~ USD 150 million). Langholm Capital, a private equity firm, has owned the Herefordshire-based business for the last five years after buying it from potato farmer William Chase in a £40m deal. According to analysts, Tyrrells is likely to draw interest from American food giant Kellogg’s, the Japanese snacks firm Calbee, and Tangerine, the Blackpool-based confectionery company that owns Butterkist popcorn.

Manitoba Potato Growers le fiafia i Konekarate

Manitoba Potato Growers le fiafia i Konekarate

Manitoba potato growers signed a contract with McCain Foods last week, but their prices won’t increase from last year.? Garry Sloik, manager of the Keystone Potato Producers Association, said it’s a relief to finally sign a deal for 2013, but production costs have risen so a deal without a price increase equates to a loss.? “It’s not necessarily good news in that we accepted a rollover price,” he said.? “So any cost increases this year are strictly out of the grower’s pocket.”? McCain’s and Manitoba potato growers had been locked in a stalemate over the last few months. ? McCain’s had offered a five percent price decrease, but producers were unwilling to accept that deal.? Growers are disappointed because Simplot, the other potato processor in Manitoba, had previously offered a slight price increase. ? Contract language now allows Simplot to reduce its contract and match McCain’s lower price.? The contracts will also significantly reduce potato acreage in Manitoba. McCain Foods Canada had earlier expressed that a lower price was needed to be competitive with potato production in the United States

Tali mai le Snack Food Association i le (IOM) Lipoti: Sodium Intake i Aofai: Iloiloga o Faʻamaoniga

The Snack Food Association (SFA) and the American Bakers Association (ABA) believe the findings from the Institute of Medicine’s (IOM) Report: Sodium Intake in Populations: Assessment of Evidence add a vital new perspective to the national discussion of sodium's role in the American diet. ABA and SFA members support efforts to improve the health of all Americans by providing ample product choices with lower sodium, fat and calories. These changes are based on customer demand and scientific evidence. We are pleased that the IOM performed such a detailed analysis of the latest sodium data, releasing results that counter current and prevalent recommendations. The IOM committee reviewed the latest data on sodium consumption and health outcomes and concluded that evidence does not support current efforts to recommend reducing sodium below 2300 mg per day for the general population, including subgroups identified in the 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans. Additionally, while the Committee found that some Americans consumed “excessive sodium” it did not identify a scientifically based definition for “excessive intake” of sodium. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) requested that the IOM examine the methodologies and conclusions in the latest research on dietary sodium intake and health outcomes in the general...
