“Big Brother”: Camila followed logic but generated negative reactions with her salvation
written by Alexandra Hartman Editor-in-Chief
This Thursday, Big Brother He lived an intense night at the gala that Camila, as leader of the week, had to save one of the nominees. Those who had remained on the plate were Alfa, Ariel, Nacho, Julieta and Marcos. Thus, when the time came for Santiago del Moro to ask for the name of the saved participant, the young woman chose Alfa without surprises.
In the first turn to communicate who she was leaving on the plate, Camila first received a surprise for being the leader: an electric piano to demonstrate her skills as a performer.
Santiago del Moro then asked the nominees to say a few words for the pianist who has the power of salvation.
“I adore you, we are together with our codes and secrets since we are here. I chose freely”, expressed Ariel. “I think you are super good and transparent, and I am very glad that you have fulfilled your dream of being here. Whatever it is, it’s going to be fine,” Marcos said.
“There are brilliant people and other brilliant ones. Camila is brilliant and we made a very nice relationship that will surely transcend Big Brother, ”said Walter.
“We have had friction at the level of the game, but not as a person. I understand her in many ways because of things she tells, and I hope she decides with her heart, “said Juan Ignacio.
“It gives me a good vibe from the beginning. I was prejudiced for being the new one but it was the opposite. He was there when I was bad. The decision you make will be fine”, Julieta told Camila.
Immediately followingwards, the leader indicated that Nacho was going to continue in the hands of the public’s decision. “I think we get to know each other more and more,” Camila came to say between the laughs that caused her the nerves of the situation.
Second, the pianist left Ariel on the plate. “Sorry, you know I like you super well,” she said.
Camila then had time to continue playing the piano, but Santiago entered once more virtually and asked her for the third name that remained under the telephone vote: Marcos.
The final decision was between Alpha and Juliet, and Camila announced her decision to save Walter from the 15th nominee plate. “Alphite. I appreciate both of them, it was very difficult for me,” said the leader of the week.
“Here you learn many things and as time goes by, things get stronger. The clashes too. With Camila I have a special affection and it shows that age differences do not matter, ”Alfa declared following being saved, while Romina might not hide her disgusted face.
“I can say thank you and that I love you very much. Thank you for one more week”, concluded Walter.
Romina’s reaction
“It’s all a lie that Julieta was her other priority, Juli is her competition,” said the former deputy in the courtyard.
“I am amused that he set up the plate like this, actually the cousin was his second option,” Romina said, but Julieta said that what Camila did did not seem like a lie to her.

written by Alexandra Hartman Editor-in-Chief

The objective of Castle Crumble is easy: the castles must be destroyed. To do so, use powerful explosions and mystical spells to destroy ancient, medieval, Aztec — and many other eras and empires fortresses.
First you start with simple cannonballs and have to try to knock down the various castles as efficiently as possible with a finger tap on the screen. Over time, castles and palaces get bigger, but there are also additional weapons.
As in Angry Birds, you’ll have to take into account a certain number of parameters in order to knock down enemy castles. If the laws of physics are your ally, it’s always best to calculate your blow before firing cannonballs.

The 2022/2023 cotton campaign promises to be difficult. Between the fertilizer crisis and pest attacks, productivity and production are down among the main producers in West Africa, with the exception of Benin. A crisis that will have repercussions on the standard of living of producers.
In Mali, the cotton campaign looks gloomy with projected yields down by 45 to 50%. An invasion of jassids, these pests that damage crops, devastated the main production basins. ” Most cotton producers will be in default says Youssouf Djimé Sidibé, executive secretary of Aproca, the association of African cotton producers. Because the producers borrow to be able to cultivate. And the reimbursement depends on the harvests.
« In most countries, cotton companies purchase inputs and distribute them to producers on credit. And, depending on the harvest, at the time of marketing, the cotton company takes the value of the inputs, says Youssouf Djimé Sidibé. Today, producers will not be able to repay the debt. »
Malian producers are waiting for the authorities to declare a state of natural disaster following the Jassid attacks, in order to release aid funds. There are some at the national level, but also at the level of UEMOA and ECOWAS.

Burkina Faso is experiencing a less dramatic situation. Last year, the State had set a very attractive cotton price, thus allowing an increase in the areas sown. However, the distribution of fertilizers was not optimal and the attacks of jassids, although less serious than in Mali, had an impact on yields.
« The physical results we have today indicate that production will be around 483,000 tonnes of seed cottonreports Ali Compaoré, managing director of Socoma, one of the country’s three cotton companies. At the national level, this will represent a drop of around 7% compared to last year, and a drop in productivity of around 12%. »

Producer cooperatives will therefore see their margin reduced
« We have objectives of 60% of the gross value of the cotton for the producer and 40% to repay the credits, continues Ali Compaore. And we see that in some cooperatives, the margin has shrunk. But all the same, the producers manage to repay the credits contracted under the campaign. »
In Mali as in Burkina Faso, the situation will therefore lead to a loss of purchasing power in the countryside. And the producers challenge the authorities on the cascading risks. In Mali in particular, they fear a food crisis. Because the fertilizers sold on credit to cotton growers are also used for cereal crops. And if producers no longer have enough to buy inputs, they fear losing on all fronts.
