Which food product can be secured by a loan in Italy?

Since the 1950s, several banks in northern Italy have begun lending to cheese makers against Parmesan cheese. The heads of cheese, usually ripening for 2-3 years, the bank places in a special storage, and in case of non-repayment of money, it can simply sell them.

Random interesting fact from the Great Encyclopedia:

Why did Oleg Anofriev play almost all the roles in the cartoon The Bremen Town Musicians?

It was originally planned that Oleg Anofriev in the cartoon "The Bremen Town Musicians" would perform only the part of the Troubadour. Other heroes were supposed to be voiced by no less famous actors, including Zinovy Gerdt and Oleg Yankovsky. But in the end, only Anofriev came to the studio at the appointed time, the rest, for various reasons, could not. Anofriyev, although he had a cold, they began to try for all parts, including the author's text, and were satisfied with the result. He even tried to play the role of the Princess, but for this Anofriev did not have enough voice range, so vocalist Elmira Zherzdeva became the Princess.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

The impact of energy-saving lamps on nature 12.09.2018

As shown by the analysis of satellite data for 2012-2016, on average, the amount of territory illuminated at night increases by 2,2% per year. The brightness of already illuminated areas also increases by 2,2% per year. Growth occurs mainly due to South America, Africa and Asia. In the war zones - Syria, Yemen and others - the illumination, on the contrary, decreases. The sky is now lit up like never before.

In fact, light pollution is growing faster, the researchers note. Most LED lamps emit a cool bluish light that satellites cannot detect due to too short electromagnetic waves. At the same time, it is this glow that is closest to daylight, which is why the body increasingly perceives night as day.

Increasing the glow affects plants and animals, changing their biorhythms and disrupting the normal functioning of the body. By 2020, LED lamps will occupy 61% of the total lamp market, the researchers note. Changing the spectrum of their radiation and reducing the brightness will slow down pollution only for a while. Scientists emphasize that it is important to reconsider the approach to the use of artificial lighting and decide whether so many sources of it are really needed.
