‘We need reservoirs built’: drought leaves UK farms begging for government aid
As crops shrivel in the fields, farmers around the country are calling for urgent action from the Tory leadership.
It last rained on the Euston Estate, near Thetford in Suffolk, a fortnight ago, although the 6mm that fell evaporated almost immediately on contact with the parched earth. Before that, the farm hadn't seen any rain since June, said Andrew Blenkiron, director of the estate belonging to Henry FitzRoy, 12th Duke of Grafton.
The hot weather meant winter wheat and barley could be harvested early on the estate’s 2,428 hectares (6,000 acres) of farmed land. But it also meant lower yields: wheat was down by a quarter, and barley by 10%, although higher prices helped soften the blow. The lack of water is critical for crops still in the ground - onions, potatoes, sugar beet - and for livestock including cattle and pigs.
Blenkiron wants to see changes to the planning system, to expedite the construction of water storage facilities on farms: "We need reservoirs built next summer, to fill up the following winter."

Scientists Develop 3D Gel Smooth Food For Elderly
Scientists have developed 3D super-smooth jellified foods that look just like our everyday meals.
Scientists at Biozoon, based in Germany, use molecular gastronomy to create food that can be "printed" using a standard extruder-based printer.
Smoothfood was developed by top chefs Markus Biedermann and Herbert Thill on the basis of modern texturisers manufactured by Biozoon.
It is a concept for cultivated eating in old age or for persons with swallowing difficulties or other illnesses which make normal eating impossible.
Over 60% of elderly patients suffer from dysphagia, meaning that they struggle to swallow and digest food.
People can develop dysphagia as a result of old age, the aftermath of a stroke, suffering cancer or from several other illnesses.
Smoothfood uses raw, steamed, fresh or frozen foods which are chopped, mixed, pureed, pureed or whipped into a foam texture and then shaped so that people with chewing or swallowing difficulties can enjoy their meals.
Mathias Kueck, founder of Biozoon and co-ordinator of the EU's Performance, said: "The look and taste of the end product matches the original food item. But the texture is soft and gel-like. It dissolves easily in the mouth so that it is safe to eat for people with mastication or swallowing problems."
The technique deconstructs common foods such as chicken, carrots and fruits into a smooth form that can be eaten without chewing and then reconstructed to give the appearance of a conventional meal.
"The aim is above all to show chefs and family carers that fresh food which fulfils the requirements of the individual patient can be prepared quickly, easily and with minimum effort. Smoothfood comprises four main food forms," said Biozoon.

This WILL make you hungry!
A man loves his lunch so much he scans every sandwich he eats.
Jon Chonko's Scanwiches ongoing photo project sees him placing his lunchtime snacks directly onto a scanner.
By cutting the sandwich in half, the picturial results are mouth-watering glimpses of his deli delights.
The Brooklyn-based designer says his project is "for education and delight".
Jon says he has scanned more than 200 sandwiches, published a book and shown his work at several New York galleries.
Some of his latest range from a selection of tea sandwiches with the crusts cut off, to a simple Bologna.
There is also tasty-looking a Maine Lobster Roll, various burgers and a Uruguayan Chivito.

‘We need reservoirs built’: drought leaves UK farms begging for government aid
As crops shrivel in the fields, farmers around the country are calling for urgent action from the Tory leadership.
It last rained on the Euston Estate, near Thetford in Suffolk, a fortnight ago, although the 6mm that fell evaporated almost immediately on contact with the parched earth. Before that, the farm hadn't seen any rain since June, said Andrew Blenkiron, director of the estate belonging to Henry FitzRoy, 12th Duke of Grafton.
The hot weather meant winter wheat and barley could be harvested early on the estate’s 2,428 hectares (6,000 acres) of farmed land. But it also meant lower yields: wheat was down by a quarter, and barley by 10%, although higher prices helped soften the blow. The lack of water is critical for crops still in the ground - onions, potatoes, sugar beet - and for livestock including cattle and pigs.
Blenkiron wants to see changes to the planning system, to expedite the construction of water storage facilities on farms: "We need reservoirs built next summer, to fill up the following winter."

‘We need reservoirs built’: drought leaves UK farms begging for government aid
As crops shrivel in the fields, farmers around the country are calling for urgent action from the Tory leadership.
It last rained on the Euston Estate, near Thetford in Suffolk, a fortnight ago, although the 6mm that fell evaporated almost immediately on contact with the parched earth. Before that, the farm hadn't seen any rain since June, said Andrew Blenkiron, director of the estate belonging to Henry FitzRoy, 12th Duke of Grafton.
The hot weather meant winter wheat and barley could be harvested early on the estate’s 2,428 hectares (6,000 acres) of farmed land. But it also meant lower yields: wheat was down by a quarter, and barley by 10%, although higher prices helped soften the blow. The lack of water is critical for crops still in the ground - onions, potatoes, sugar beet - and for livestock including cattle and pigs.
Blenkiron wants to see changes to the planning system, to expedite the construction of water storage facilities on farms: "We need reservoirs built next summer, to fill up the following winter."

Nepal Observes Bala Chaturdashi, A Festival To Give Salvation To Departed Souls
Nepali Hindu devotees spread the ingredients of seven grains, locally called ''Satbeej,'' on the day of Bala Chaturdashi, a Hindu festival to give salvation to departed souls, in the premises of Pashupatinath Temple, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Kathmandu, Nepal, on November 19, 2025. The seven grains include dhaan (rice), jau (barley), til (sesame), gahun (wheat), chana (chickpeas), makai (maize), and kaguno (foxtail millet). Devotees walk along Kailash-Suryaghat-Gaurighat-Aryaghat-Guhyeshwari-Mrigasthali-Bishworup-Kirateshwar-108 Shivalinga. In remembrance of beloved ones, Nepali Hindu devotees offer oil-fed lamps into the Bagmati River flowing through the premises of Pashupatinath Temple in Kathmandu on the day of Bala Chaturdashi. The live lamps float on the river, which is believed to lighten the world of departed souls in their afterlife. Devotees remain awake throughout the night, camping on the edge of the Bagmati River facing the Pashupatinath Temple. Rituals for Bala Chaturdashi start from Marga Krishna Trayodashi, the 13th day of the waning moon in the month of Mangsir (8th month according to the Nepali calendar). Devotees who observe this ritual maintain strict fasting, with only one meal that day and abstain from garlic, onions, fish, eggs, and other food items that are said to be impure. In the evening, they reach the Pashupatinath temple or shrines dedicated to Lord Shiva and chant hymns and prayers to Lord Shiva all night long. They light ''Akhanda Jyoti'' in the name of the deceased souls of their families. The next morning, Marga Krishna Chaturdashi, they take a holy bath and start their journey around the Pashupatinath temple premises, spreading seven kinds of grains along the way.
