New Moonswatch “Mission to Moonshine Gold” is coming – Watches & Jewelry
written by Alexandra Hartman Editor-in-Chief
A mysterious ad has been floating around on social media for days. In it, Swatch announces a new version of its bestseller from last year, the Moonswatch “Misson to Moonshine Gold”. It will be available on March 7th in four selected boutiques in Tokyo, Zurich, Milan and London.
Faced with a series of international crises that have destabilized value chains and caused a shortage of certain products, African states are aiming for food sovereignty. At the Paris Agricultural Show, several countries came to plead the cause of their agriculture and present their policies.
« In Senegal, we went from 1.5 million tonnes of cereals, all cereals combined in 2010, to 3.5 million tonnes “. As Aly Ngouille Ndyaye, the Senegalese Minister of Agriculture, reminds us, African countries did not wait for the Covid and the war in Ukraine to increase their agricultural yields. But these crises, which have made food imports scarcer and more expensive, push countries to go further. Food sovereignty has become the general watchword.
The strategy involves massive public investment. ” We have implemented this food strategy with a provisional budget of approximately five trillion [de francs CFA, NDLR] over five years, says Aly Ngouille Ndaye. To be practically self-sufficient in essential consumer products. »
Additional needs for national production
The food sovereignty strategy also involves research. And the provision of seeds and improved techniques to farmers. ” If by chance, we use appropriate plant material that the CNRA offers with yields that will double current yields, it will be easy to fill the gap, says Doctor Jean-Louis Konan, scientific director at the National Center for Agronomic Research of Côte d’Ivoire (CNRA). Whether in rice production, where we need 1.2 million additional tonnes, whether in bananas where we need 300,000 additional tonnes compared to national production, or whether in maize where we need an additional 200,000 tonnes. »

Low-cost imports, shock absorbers of social crisis
It’s not as paradoxical as it seems, but cash crops can also contribute to food sovereignty. Ivorian agriculture, which is the most developed in West Africa, relies on its special economic zones to create added value in its sectors and therefore ultimately to relaunch agricultural investments. “ We have industrial zones dedicated to processing. There are platforms that are established where there is water and electricity. So the state does the essentials, and we only come to settle there », explains Kobenan Kouassi Adjoumani, Ivorian Minister of Agriculture.
If agricultural protectionism is back in the public debate among the major powers, on the other hand, African leaders are pleading for open systems. In times of high inflation, low-cost imports remain shock absorbers of social crisis. But they also want free movement to go both ways. In this respect, the provisions adopted in December by the Europeans once morest products resulting from deforestation are the subject of virulent criticism in Africa.

The family of the boy killed by a bullet in Rosario has no consolation: “Life is unfair”
written by Alexandra Hartman Editor-in-Chief
This Sunday, the little Máximo Jerez became a new victim of the insecurity that lives in Rosario. He was 12 years old and died following being shot in the heart in a shooting that occurred in the Empalme Graneros neighborhood of that city of Santa Fe.
“We are tired of insecurity. What else do we have to wait for?” Antonia Jerez, Máximo’s aunt, expressed indignantly. In addition, three other children were left in the middle of the shooting.
One of them is the victim’s cousin, who is 13 years old and is admitted to intensive care. While another cousin and a neighbor underwent surgery and are stable.
“A car came, fired random shots and one hit Máximo’s heart,” said Antonia. In this sense, she pointed out: “There is no explanation, it gives you so much helplessness because they mess with innocent boys. Life is so unfair. You take care of them so much so that they come and take an innocent from you, ”she told the woman in dialogue with the TN portal.
This Monday morning they will take the little boy’s body to the cemetery, amid the commotion that caused a new death in the neighborhood: “All the neighbors are outraged and furious,” he said.
As Antonia told this medium, it is not the first time that something of these characteristics has happened in that place. “You see this often, previously they killed other innocent boys. We don’t want there to be another Máximo,” she added.
Rosario: how was the crime of Máximo Jerez in Rosario
The event occurred around 2 in the morning this Sunday at the intersection of Cabal 1300 bis and Pasaje San José streets. A group of criminals attacked a house where the four little ones were. The shots hit all of them and caused the death of Máximo Jerez.
In addition, a 2-year-old girl was shot in the arm and two other 13-year-olds were shot in the mouth and chest. All had to be transferred to the North Zone Children’s Hospital to be assisted.
The police went to the place of the attack and noticed the presence of the attackers, who tried to escape through the corridors of the settlement. Seconds later, a chase began that ended with the criminals escaping through the roofs of the neighborhood.
However, the attackers left clues for the investigation. The police found weapons with suppressed numbers, machine guns and silencers in a bed. In turn, they seized a motorcycle that had an active arrest warrant since February 24.
