Scientists from Michigan and PRL are studying how the American birch adapts to the environment through photosynthesis. They have found that trees maintain a reserve capacity to adapt to environmental changes. This confirms that they can cope with climate change and maintain high activity of photosynthetic enzymes.

The Chishmin Plant in Bashkortostan has started supplying sugar beet pulp to Uzbekistan. A batch of 20 tons was sent in November, with plans to increase the volumes to 1000 tons monthly. Beet pulp is in demand in Uzbekistan's livestock farming and is considered an effective feed additive.

The plant has expanded its capacity after modernization and changed its strategy, focusing on supplies to China and Kazakhstan.

It is projected that grain harvest in Russia will exceed 139.5 million tons by 2025, with a yield reaching 29 quintals per hectare. The implementation of modern technologies and government support contribute to increasing crop yields without expanding farmland.

American farmers are switching to cheaper generic pesticides due to falling incomes. This leads to a decrease in profits for agrochemical companies, including Bayer. Farmers opt for savings but acknowledge the disadvantages of generics. The trend is growing due to an increasing number of generic offerings in the market.

The new harvest wheat meets export standards. The Federal State Budgetary Institution "CCC AIC" conducts research on 19 quality and safety parameters of the grain.

Potato is a key agricultural crop that requires careful quality analysis. Seed potatoes must comply with the standard GOST 33996-2016, be healthy, free from defects and diseases. The results of tuber analysis are important for food safety.

In Primorsky Krai, there are 81 Chinese agribusinesses operating, occupying up to 20% of arable land. Authorities expressed hope for further cooperation with Chinese partners at a forum in Shenyang. Investments in rice production and a grain processing plant have been proposed.

Representatives of government institutions, science, and agribusiness discussed the production aspects of agriculture in the Novgorod region. The meeting covered programs for efficient land use, digitization of the agro-industrial complex, new technologies, and successful projects.

The interaction between science and practice was recognized as crucial for the industry's development.
