Due to changes in legal regulations which entered into force in November 2017 (mainly the Act on counteracting drug addiction), Poland partially opened its market to some hemp products. It enabled to import hemp as raw medical material and bring it to pharmacies. At the end of October 2019, the first permission to distribute hemp flower in Poland was issued (to Spectrum Cannabis).

Cannabis cultivation for medical purposes is still prohibited, and the maximum THC level in products imported and sold in Poland is 0.2%. Before being sold to the patients, medical cannabis has to inter alia be approved by Office for Registration of Medicinal Products, Medical Devices and Biocidal Products.

Interest in the hemp market as an investment instrument is also increasing on the polish investment market. According to forecasts of some analysts, in the near future Poland may become a leading producer of hemp products. A favorable, moderate climate, beneficial changes in legal regulations, lower production costs compared to other european markets encourage foreign and polish investors and make this market very attractive.However, changes in Polish law allowed the cultivation, processing and sale of hemp to obtain CBD oil as an equally important cannabinoid. The popularity of hemp cultivation among polish farmers for the production of CBD (isolate, oil, etc.) has been increasing. This is noticeable in the size of the area that cannabis cultivation occupied in 2017 in comparison to 2019.

The combination of several natural component such as geography, climate, vine variety together with local cultures and winemakers, influences and shapes the wines qualities around the world. Mainly geology, geomorphology and microclimate are geographical features that can be intended as natural ecological resources of the territory. These are precursor of the biosynthetic activities that promote the biodiversity and the qualitative predisposition of either the vine and wine.

Alto Adige is a small winegrowing regions in Italy in which, thanks to its location in the middle of the multiform Alps mountain range, the aforementioned geographical elements vary outstandingly. For years now, Italian wine guide has awarded Alto Adige a large number of top wine in proportion to its total vineyard area. Our studies show that innovative analytical approach are there required to scientific explain the geographical value linked to the wine original identity. We tried therefore to look at new methods of analysis and classification of the territory at vineyards scale. The results of our recent seeks on both the vineyard’s topoclimate, expressed by the new-found Solar Radiation Identity index (SRI), and the Vineyard Geological identity (VGI) allow us to distinguish and parameterize some environmental indicators. These natural differences seems to be able to give to the local wines many distinctive qualities and links between the vineyards location and the wine’s quality of some grape varieties have been observed. Experimental examines of Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot noir and Gewürztraminer wines confirms how geography can increase the local ecological diversity, acting as spatial buffers for the vineyards distribution and quality characteristics.

Over the last 20 years, the use of pesticides in Poland significantly increased from 8848 to 24006 tons. The highest level of consumption was recorded for herbicides and fungicides, respectively 12190 and 7737 tons in 2019, which accounted for 83% of its total usage (Statistical Yearbook of Agriculture 2012-2019). The presented data show that the use of these substances in Poland is systematically growing, and people are increasingly exposed to the residues of these compounds in food products. Despite the occurrence of many threats and the possibility of including harmful substances in the biological chain, pesticides are still the most effective method of combating pathogens. Therefore, constant monitoring of the pesticide residue level in soils is necessary, and the information on the actual level of soil environment contamination by these toxic compounds is crucial for the proper assessment of the risk resulting from their application.

The aim of the research was to assess the content of pesticide residues in agricultural soils of Poland according to Polish Regulation (Dz.U. 2016 poz. 1395).

Soil was collected from 216 sampling points (0-25 cm) located throughout the country. The samples were dried, sieved, ground, and then subjected to extraction with organic solvents. Organochlorine pesticides: α-HCH, β-HCH, γ-HCH (Lindane), Aldrin, Dieldrin, Endrin, and 4,4'DDT and its metabolites: 4,4'DDE and 4,4'DDD were extracted in the Accelerated Solvent Extractor (ASE200) with a hexane mixture / acetone (50/50 v / v), purified on deactivated silica gel and determined by gas chromatography with the electron capture detector (GC-μECD). Non-chlorine pesticides such as: Atrazine, Carbaryl and Carbofuran were extracted in ASE200 with a dichloromethane / acetone mixture (50/50 v / v) and purified on deactivated silica gel. Maneb was extracted from the soil by shaking the sample mixed with ethyl acetate. Non-chlorine pesticides were determined using a dual mass spectrometry (GQ QQQ Agilent System) gas method operating in MRM (Multiple Reaction Monitoring) mode.

The research indicated that Polish soils do not contain a high concentration of pesticides, neither non-chlorine (Atrazine, Carbaryl, Carbofuran, Maneb) nor organochlorine compounds (α-HCH, γ-HCH, Aldrin, Dieldrin and Endrin). Nevertheless, the sum of 4,4'DDT / 4,4'DDE / 4,4'DDD was slightly above the limit (> 0.12 mg kg^-1), exceeding the permissible content of these compounds in soils in twelve samples. The higher concentrations of DDT may come from the period when DDT was authorized for use in agriculture as indicated by the proportion of 4,4’DDE / 4,4’DDT and high half-livesof these compounds in the soil.

The study was carried out to establish how the use of different shading nets could influence the vitamin C and total Capsaicinoids content in ‘Star Flame’ chilli pepper (Capsicum annuum) grown under plastic house conditions. Three different shading net colours namely red, green and white under two harvesting periods were used in this experiment. Peppers without shading nets were used as control. ‘Star Flame’ chilli pepper were subjected to chromatographic analyses using HPLC for the determination of total Capsaicinoids and vitamin C. Interaction in different shading nets and harvesting periods (p = 0.010) had significant effect on total Capsaicinoids as a result of green and white shading showing higher differences when compared to control samples. Vitamin C content was observed to have increased in white and red shadings (p=0.001) after the first harvest and gradually decreased after the second harvesting time (p=0.002).

Experiments at the testing field of Meat Technology Centre situated in Laguna de Antela, Ourense, Spain (42° 6′ N, 7° 42′ W) during 2017-2018 evaluated poultry manure (PM) and solid fraction of pig slurry (PS) as a fertilizer. Tree levels of SFPS fertilization, using different mixtures of solid pig slurry (20, 30 and 40 m³) and poultry manure (25m³) were compared with a mineral fertilizer (N 26%) control. The fertilization treatments were repeated each year on the same plots. 20 parcels were sown with Agria variety, highly adapted to this region. The two central grooves from each parcel were collected l and the quality analysis and crop yield were done.

All the crops tested responded markedly fertilization, giving the following production data (expressed as kilogram per hectare): 76,595 kg ha^-1 C, 69,290 kg ha^-1 PM, 64,194 kg ha^-1 high PS, 62,606 kg/ha low PS and 62,006 kg ha^-1 medium PS.

if we pay attention to commercial production, the most effective fertilization formula was chemical and poultry manure. In the case of high PS, a pronounced descent between gross production (64,194 kg ha^-1) and commercial (48,408 kg ha^-1) was observed.

Among the treatments with different amount of pig manure, it can be concluded that the increase of this only slightly raises the commercial production for a medium dose application. With this type of organic fertilizer, the productions are lower than those obtained with the controls. This suggests that a mixture of organic fertilizer from the solid fraction of pig manure and remains of chicken beds can be very suitable for potato fertilization.

The management of pig manure is a problem of crucial environmental and economic interest, especially in Mediterranean countries, like Spain, where a dense concentrations of intensive fattening pigs. The aim of this study was to evaluate the use of pig slurry (PS), liquid fraction previously separated, as a substitute of mineral fertilizer in the maize crop in the experimental parcel situated in the district of A Limia (Galicia, NW Spain). This study was carried out with 2 replications and 20 parcels according to randomized complete blocks trial design between 2017 and 2018 as two separate experiments. The treatments consisted of using mineral fertilization recommended for the maize crop (200 kg ha^-1), without fertilization, and PS doses (7, 13 and 20 l m^-2 in 3 irrigations). Additionally, all plants received 750 kg∙of 8-24-16 ha^-1 at planting time. Maize yield was evaluated. The high application rate of the organic fertilizer raised a production to 45,230 kg ha^-1, followed by mineral trial with 44,409 kg ha^-1. Lesser differences among the rest of the treatments were found, obtained 40,757 kg ha^-1 without slurry added, 40,735 and 40,256 kg ha^-1 with medium and low pig manure respectively. The mineral fertilization in maize can be replaced by high pig slurry doses (20 l slurry m^-2 and 30 l water m^-2) with no loss of yield components.

Height and weight of corn were determined. Regarding the weight of 10 corn, the medium PS was the best result. Results indicated a positive and significant effect of nitrogen fertilization over productivity parameters.

The aim of presentation consists of agriculture, horticulture, health, daily use of life, financial crises, poverty and hunger were studied and reported that Agriculture and Horticulture is the basic need for the development of health, daily use of life, reduction in financial crises, poverty and hunger in the world. Agriculture is the science, art and occupation of cultivating the soil, producing crops, raising livestock etc. It is the food we eat, the clothing we wear, the materials of our homes, the garden around us etc. In other words, agricultural is the cultivation of animals, plants, fungi and other life forms for food, fibers, biofuels and other products used to sustain human life. It is not only the basic need of food but also fulfills all the basic requirements of human beings for the daily use of their life’s like integrated agricultural products/industries including Livestock and Dairy Development i.e. beef, mutton, milk and milk product, Poultry like broiler, table eggs, etc. Aquaculture the rearing of fish, apiculture the rearing or keeping bees, The different Crops production, Seed industry like wheat rice, maize etc. The word horticulture comes from two Latin words which mean “garden” and “culture”. Horticulture is the area of agriculture involving basically the art and science of growing and handling the fruits, nuts, vegetables, herbs, flowers, foliage plants, woody ornamental, turf etc. Horticulture is divided into different distinct disciplines/industries, such as Floriculture, Landscape horticulture, Olericulture, Pomology and Post-harvest physiology. In the light of the above study, it is proposed to commercialize the industries of agriculture and horticulture for absorbing millions of technical and non-technical peoples, create employment, generate income, stronger economy, reduce the crises, poverty and hunger in the world.
