The Netherlands is twice and slightly more, bigger than Montenegro. A quarter of its territory is below the sea level, from which it defended itself for centuries and snatched land from that same sea. In addition to the above, the Netherlands is the fifth country in the world for the export of economic goods. It is the second world economic power in terms of export of agricultural products, and on this basis it collects 86 billion euros annually. In addition to the highlighted The Dutch are worried about the future, due to the fact that the United Nations recently announced that in 2050 there will be a major crisis in the nutrition of people on the planet!
The Benelux countries have always been a cultural and economic challenge for the developed world. And only for us in the Balkans! However, as things stand, little of it was of any use to us Balkans? Official data show that the Netherlands is the fifth country in the world for the export of economic goods, and the second for the export of agricultural products. The land of tulips, windmills and canals collects 86 billion euros annually from agricultural production alone.
Despite the highlighted facts, the Dutch economic and scientific thought is worried about what will happen in the not-so-distant future in the food sector of its population, bearing in mind the announcements from the most official places? To a connoisseur of the situation in this country, it seems at first that there is no reason for excessive concern. But it is not like that, their economic strategists and science and how they worry about the future of their people and think that they should be ready to welcome the announced disturbances. Therefore, their profession and science have investigated and solved this problem in recent years. We are talking about solutions based on: land, sea and air. Based on the achieved achievements, competent people claim that this country has firmly stepped into the 22nd century.
A little reminder: being at an economic turning point, numerous countries in the world, right after World War II, started the process of chemicalization in agriculture, which on the one hand brought progress in terms of the volume of production and in many countries extinguished hunger, and on the other hand endangered people's lives for decades, with food that contained harmful substances.
Faced with this problem, in countries with developed economies, professions and science, in the penultimate decade of the last century, set out in search of food production technology without the participation of chemical agents. Success on this front marked the beginning of the "second revolution" in terms of the quality of human nutrition. However, despite this fact, the technological battle on this front, unfortunately in a large number of countries in the world, has not yet been won, and chemistry is present in production on a rather worrying scale. No one knows how long this state will last!?
On the other hand, in less developed countries (underdeveloped and countries in transition) the first stage (chemization) has not yet been sufficiently mastered. And as for the production of health-safe food, they are struggling with initial troubles. It is a relic of several decades of scientific and economic impotence, that is, non-affirmative agrarian policies in those countries.
When it comes to the results of the "third revolution" with which the Netherlands "struggled" and our position - there is no need to waste words, except that it can be stated that this area is in the domain of the unknown! The author of this text is not able to provide any more detailed information regarding the essence of this interesting topic, partly due to the lack of newspaper space, partly because their publication is not allowed by the person who data available.
Finally, in countries that primarily care about the quality and safe nutrition of their population as a strategically important segment of the official economic policy in the long term, the profession and science continuously work on this work with abundant support from both the economy of those countries and the state, and nothing is done according to the system "from change to change".
And at the very end, the question inevitably arises - how did the agrarian policy of the Netherlands in the past eliminate the "artificial illusion" that hung like a sword over agriculture, as a market and economically less attractive branch, and that as such it drags the country into a system of extensive farming? Their long-ago answer to this question brought the Netherlands 86 billion euros in annual agricultural exports, and when they are asked this question from our side, at first they don't understand much and seem confused?
The answer is relatively simple, only that in our conditions the answer to this question cannot get "citizenship status"!
