  1. Biennial Omaha Products Show
    I think that this is cool how they have an annual Products show to show what people have come up with and created. This is the 26th annual Product Show and I think that it would be cool to go and be able to see all of the new products.

  2. Molten aluminum meets a watermelon
    You would think that putting this into a watermelon would make it explode and blow up. But it didn't but what how would you do that. I don't understand why someone would even think about that and decide to put the aluminum in a watermelon.

  3. China, Russia prepare ag partnership
    China and Russia agreed to launch a $2 billion investment fund to develop agricultural projects in the two countries and set up a free-trade zone between their key farming belts. This is helping chinas search for a diverse global breadbasket to supply for food demand. I am really supprised that China and russia are coming together. This will help with the participation of leading international investers thats baccked by russia and chinas investment fund.

  4. Difficult talks for EU trade deal
    The European Commission’s proposal “to allow states and countries to opt-out of GE crops for cultivation and feed” makes it “very, very difficult,” Vilsack said Thursday in an interview with Bloomberg News in Istanbul, where he’s at a G-20 agriculture ministers’ meeting.

  5. Molten aluminum meets a watermelon
    I actually saw the original video for this last week. I thought it was going to explode like the owners of the video did. Instead the liquid found the paths to the seeds and made a pretty interesting art sculpture. I though it was funny how when they open up the watermelon this smells really bad. Like really, bad.

  6. Molten aluminum meets a watermelon
    At first I thought the watermelon would either explode or the inside would be messed up and burned. I thought it was really cool to see the after product when they split the watermelon. The aluminum formed into the seed crevices. It kind of reminds me of some type of plant.

    Wow this sure was pretty neat. When they poured molten aluminum inside the watermelon it casted a little watermelon seed tree.

  8. China and Russia agreed to launch a $2 billion investment fund to develop agricultural projects in the two countries and set up a free-trade zone between their key farming belts, the state-backed Russian Direct Investment Fund said Friday.The move broadens China’s search for a diverse global breadbasket to supply its sharply rising demand for food. It marks a sharper pivot toward Russia and accelerates a drive that has seen the Asian giant spend billions of dollars to acquire food-producing companies abroad as well as cultivate farming producers like Argentina and Ukraine.

  10. The future of bread comes from a lab
    By growing a specialty wheat, and cutting out a bunch of middlemen, the farmer can get a better price for her wheat. The Bread Lab could be an important tool for keeping some mid-size farmers afloat. I think that it is cool that they are looking for new ways for bread to be made.

  12. The future of Bread comes from a Lab
    They want to move farm produce away from commodity markets and into regional markets and get in touch with millers and bakers. They are working with the farmers on a daily basis to help them get what they want. I think this is cool. The farmers actually want to have the switch from commodity markets to regional markets because they will actually want to grow the product well.
