Water - the most common substance on Earth

A video documentary of 1h20 minutes worthwhile to watch.

Do you know the secrets of this element? Where does it come from? Did u know that due to water a plant can break through the cement?

Water is more than a physical substance. Water is life. Nothing is yielding as water.

Water reacts to our emotions.

December 2009 Romania - Thank you to all of you

My dear readers

Thank you for joining me this year.

2010 is a critical year for the future of Romanian agribusiness but the European one as well. The foreign investments built up on a strong and unitary foundation of laws and regulation - encouraging the agribusiness initiatives - may be the milestone for the good of our country and for the regional market.

In 2010 I shall organise a few original events therefore I would like to keep in touch with all of you and as far as possible to comply with my invitations.

I wish you a serene year-end and for the New Year all your aspirations to become true.

Splendid Winter Holidays and Merry Christmas!

To all of you all the best!

Warmly

Dana Bucur

EDITORIAL AUGUST - OCTOBER 2009 - RAY GOLDBERG

Professor Ray Goldberg who invented the term ‘agribusiness’ along with colleague John Davis is the George M. Moffet Professor of Agriculture and Business Emeritus at Harvard Business School.

His Biography is impressive and I wonder how many people in life we can meet like him.

Talking about the global food system on a recent interview given to Cargill, he sais:

‘The food system, despite the moves from rural to urban populations, is still dominant economic force in all societies. 50% of the income of the world is used to buy food. 50% of economic assets are part of the food system. Close to 40% of the workforce of the world is involved in the food system. So, it’s a critical part of the world’s total economy’.

Asked about agribusiness, he was more optimistic of this industry than any other global ones.

‘I am. I think the leadership in our industry – because of the volatility of it, the weather and crop cycles – is more inclined to think longer term’.

Harvard Professor Ray Goldberg inclines more towards solutions companies than commodities enterprises.

‘I think the crisis has forced people to rethink how they relate to each other short and long term. The strategy of creating a solutions company and a win-win mentality is taking place throughout the food system’.
