was with one of the best majors so gay has been flying for over twenty years in force against the mujahideen in afghanistan i could've been safe behind me headed low to the ground for a closer look. and offer a quick tour across the river i was ready to head back to work to see some of the crops for myself. i was visiting one of the region's largest agricultural firms thomas who just finished raking in a huge harvest some flowers roisin grain will flourish it but before they can be sold they have to be checked for quality. the lab bills take samples of the crop and run a series of tests to check the moisture protein and gluten contents if they post then they're ready to be loaded on to the trucks although in some cases that process can be pretty labor intensive. jemma feel like if i see

a losing battle there are over four thousand tons of subclass heeds in this warehouse alone waiting to be shipped off to clients around the rust a freezer and this one company. that takes in a particularly big old. pickles roast all this time to the lawn just some flour oil producer in the whole of your. uterus here produces thirty million bottles of oil every month from two hundred thousand hectares of some plants if you seed survive another quality control check there unloaded into the factory to be processed. displaced. says. that you're serious about this report misspoke a genius yes a yes. just two guys here controlling the whole. thing these pipes and funnel shell and divide this. these are different categories which have

been pummeled imprints to various grades of oil. flowing bottles and this saves a significant amount of space and they've been attached to the production line for that grand finale. so upset i felt from the fact i've heard the sunflower seeds end up in one of almost one million of the boil the factory sets out every single day if you sit down for a burger and fries it processed pretty likely it was good for me. when you're dealing with industrial scale you need some pretty serious equipment and most of them don't come to. grow so much as the largest supplier of agricultural machinery in russia and sells to almost fifty countries around the world. they build balan's and france is with wheels bigger than me but that particularly proud of that combine harvesters. because i think this is the end of the production.

not safe to be here without a helmet ok. safety first people. each machine is state of builds and is checked over hundreds of times just to make sure my comment is what keeps me. here is this it would bring a profit to buy brick road prosecco would say every single hour. twenty times the price. props this. bunch of kooks with every new combine really needs is a good ten strong. business to come have a go. by your step. the fall of the. season russian made machine these machines certainly don't lack for creature comforts of. transmission the steering wheel and this moves. for

a cigarette. a legend in your fridge. the serializer in the fridge you could live in the steak i feed so here i once i had a brand new combine all this stuff and they were about to give me. three hundred. twenty. break it. was a little late in the year to go out into the fields but luckily they got pretty wide roads around here and there weren't any police around to observe my highly illegal u. turns. mine may be massive but it's surprisingly easy to drive and i arrived back at the depo with everything and everyone still intact. the people over a stove may be surrounded by the latest technology but they're also still in touch with their pasts and no more side of the me areas cossack population. the don't

call sites will run away serfs who set a little aside the river here hundreds of years ago before in their own society and gained a reputation as super horsemen and fierce spite has significant roles in russia's military campaigns up until the twentieth century. they also adopted traditions from the countries they visited and i've been invited to the village of star each of costs colonel thin to coffee ceremony. if you sit down for coffee every day of eleven o'clock it's a tradition that dates back to the turkish wars of the seventeenth century where the cossacks brought back turkish habits along with their new turkish wives and it's been a big social occasion ever since. you got it was not simply a meal. but you a chill get together over coffee to discuss matters of interest because example drank on their own they're always invited to neighbors and other friendship. and you don't just drink plain coffee it's always served with whipped milk it's called

kind mark. extremely nice whatever it is because i'm going to get some kind of. things to come from around town obama's delicious pancakes i was ready to see what else was going on in the village i didn't have to look phone. and his friends a dr who perform all around russia but they're also happy to train new students providing they're wearing the proper gear of course. you know we don't try and i don't. know missing there is the beard but we don't have time for that so i had a few riding lessons by now and i was confident that nothing could possibly go wrong assuming that's all he wasn't going to make me copy his protege as i'm told he was once in the presidential guard and he's following in the footsteps of a proud line of course like horsemen. but these guys were the best in the whole of

the world and if he had had them he could have called them bold and they were inspiring signs and moments later i was ready to get into the saddle. so this is tomahawk tomahawk i don't mean a racing horse and he's going to be the horse that i'm training on today quite as one of. the time on a horse. wanted. but eventually but tommy was happy to let me try without him holding the reins. but. third lesson think i'm getting a little bit more competent on these guys. now than then. maybe i'll make a horseman one day but running around in traditional costume was most enough for my trainer. in the real course acts have to be on. this weapon is very sure it's going to kill people just handle it with care put it on

your shoulder and shoot straight. with those encouraging words in my is i began to practice my little spiel would say i'm on a large powerful animal with a dangerous weapon. and so far. this this is a good day. this is definitely a good day i don't want to move at all i really. should leave the sore place my more experienced colleagues were just getting started and things were about to heat up. would get involved in the fall and jumping. in general was never a nickel involved in the battles today. that's to stand here direct. is very good. except. there's not one dramatic enough about a few human fence posts. i'm willing to was risking far more on just his dignity

his wife was writing the. well it seemed safe enough. to make me feel better this may be. the most stupid thing i have ever done. but alright it's. this is what real. and they tell me that these are a bit of a crazy bunch. of me by some distance. it's close to twenty two minutes. stripes and for sure the troops have a special reward for that. i think i have down. my legs get the feeling. that. he's going to address the long line to you. here oh i think i need a stiff drink. it

was definitely time for a well deserved break and luckily the house just the place to get away from it all . the total. on the cossacks. wealthy british. market. find out what's really happening to the global economy. for a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune in to kaiser report. nineteen thirty. friends try to reason with hitler germany. a. trade and a safety net for themselves nineteen thirty nine the whole of europe isn't in war

efforts to establish a system of collective security nine hundred thirty eight fail and it's still on the agenda. to be learned from. training with doesn't inspire a love of horses in years nothing will. also one of the few places in russia where you can see them in the wild. just. a few hundred kilometers away from the city is the rostov scheme nature reserve. almost sixty years ago some domestic horses were left on the island and began to breed hundreds of foals later this isolated treeless colony is home to the largest herd of wild horses in the world. amazing science get used to heads. of cow even camels i've seen in russia never anything like this great. wild horses. wonder if we can get

a little bit closer. in fact the horses are used to humans members of the public of frequent visitors along with the park rangers who come to study the horses behavior numbers and foliage levels on the island and if you approach them with a tempting treat you might get closer to the new dad hopeful. one thing about spending a day on a freezing on island his you tend to work up an appetite but with no restaurants for more than a hundred kilometers in any direction if you want to eat out here you'd better catch it yourself. in that corner so that you know it is jamieson when you are approaching the prototype as it was the biggest and last of the jumper approaching the crayfish station. right before she. crayfish the real delicacy from the clear water here provides perfect conditions to find them. so apparently this is the best spots on the river to see

if we can find some fresh crayfish so we've got to go check the nets and hopefully . have enough for a bit of the crayfish or a local delicacy fishermen like me show regularly lay traps to catch them i'm not to be a bit of a mess here. ok but. you need to bait the traps first of all the more fishy and freshens generally unpleasant bass is the more likely the crayfish will come looking. for they. although you can't expect to get lucky. from a good. lost a big one and sometimes you get the old one just one to accept the inevitable. hanging. let him go absolutely.

he had a few more hits and misses but eventually the train was full. of. feast fit for a king. any question is. the best way to cook them. but so. many things funny i needed a bit of help if i was going to prepare these guys properly and finance i needed to make a speedy trip back into the city. is very little i like more in this world than fresh shellfish and you don't really get much fresh seafood. so i've heard that there's one place in the city that they really know how to cook this is rostrums best seafood restaurant appropriately enough fish.

stretch it was busy at the start i was put to work chopping vegetables for the. although we had to keep an eye on the old crayfish trying to launch a daring escape. look at it it's a very very nice and once everything was boiling away it was time to add the main ingredients. of all russian crayfish protection needs doing this which is too graphic for network television. set back soon with the regular program. or check things out for us cooks. the local crayfish now. obviously i'm going to diggin him but you've got to do these things properly so according to local cause a tradition. i must wash everything down with a cold beer. when life is very hot sometimes.
