5:15 am
a joint trial lateral counter-narcotics operation in southern afghanistan however backtracking is not enough for hamid karzai to exonerate his image and close association as an official top lobbyist for afghan draggle or it. now he has a unique opportunity to lead the way be the afghan count on our cottage police in helmand anaconda har and thus to prove he's relevance as the genuine leader of afghanistan and to lead the aerial and airborne assault on the poppy fields. afghanistan can prove for they regular afghans that after all i mean i could make a total reverse from being an official top political cover for the drug lords

5:18 am
pine nuts there are some companies that do invest in the processing of these products and was very interesting here is that this is really growing in the wild so people here could just go to the forests and go gather that themselves and the results they get of course depends on how much they gather i am in the heart of what really is the perfect example of. lush greenery of that rich forestry that make up such an abundant natural resource for the tomsk region it has over a million hectares of agricultural land and more than half the territory is covered with forest in order for people enjoy collecting pine cones in a forest families come with children young people do it a lot you can collect for your own consumption or you can sell them at a good price there are people who leave off this business it's estimated that picking and processing different kinds of wild produce provides an income for as many as one hundred fifty thousand local inhabitants those who gather can sell them
5:19 am
to companies that process them like this one. this is the first stage of processing plant has to get the nuts kansa gathered a special stations where people bring them there is a huge potential here which needs to be realised pine cones wild mushrooms and a wide variety of berries are there for the picking almost ninety percent of what's picked is processed here to our company processes wild berries we store frozen berries industrial fruits facilities and process them into different kinds of jams from a taste of the sweet fruits of the wild to taste of the rough side of the siberian wilderness. we patrol the surrounding forests the folly here is quite diverse you can spot alex spears slinks and sables in winter he can hunt moves but chasing them on skis as for bears they can only be hunted in their dance in winter the rangers spend a month at a time in the thick of the forest and in order to survive while they're there hunting for food has become part of their daily routine. no bears this time but
5:20 am
there was certainly no shortage of birds. come on urban people are just not suited to all this it takes no one in a most habits in being a good child to be successful hunter well i'm no good at either of those so i tried my hand at fishing instead it didn't take us very long to experience the extreme conditions in siberian wilderness throws your way but if you know how to work with nature and to work hard at your survival you'll find that it has plenty to offer so now let's talk a bit more about this industry with andre who is joining us right now thank you very much for joining us now you just tell us a bit more about this industry in talks. first of all in terms it's a sport because half of the people in the city when the season is they go collecting berries or mushrooms i personally hate collecting berries but collecting mushrooms is for
5:21 am
a lot of fun the forest is right and it's not very far to go so you just go there collect whatever you find it's yours the forest is for everybody this stuff doesn't grow where you want it to it grows where it wants to so you must find it and bring it and then of course there is an industry which does it for money only four percent of what grows is actually collected so there's a vase area for industry to grow you know to what extent do you think it's going to grow we can speak about millions of dollars we can all speak about hundreds of millions of dollars it will never be the primary industry or even close to that but it may be very. substantial over industry. i think it grows but don't forget it also depends on the harvest so we are very much interested in that and i guess i can say we welcome investment all right well thank you very much for that there will. be
5:22 am
a collection and the process to go while growing natural products is a developing sector industry as a drain. had rightly said and when you just go into the forest and go to the villages where you can really see is the involvement of the people who go out there and collect it themselves i guess right now that is what's most interesting about this sector and to where it's going to be going in the future will again depend on the nature that's our silly reporting there well it brings us up to date here now if you remember that morgan all was turning our website our t. dot com and coming up in just a few moments with god's business update took away. for the full story we've got. the biggest issues get a human voice face to face with the news makers. in moscow she's available in hotels corsten. over those are all toto keep
5:23 am
a promise it is congress motel east west never told. no but. rather some s.e.'s lobby and sky. historical hotels of a culture in the city. called small. as a good i've been told from the stroke or less to tropicana hurtado. hello and welcome time to get the latest from the world of business ukraine is rapidly regaining the trust of international finance agencies says the i.m.f. whole weapon and i.m.f. commission which is visiting the country is still to make a decision on giving its second tranche of a billion dollar loan. resuscitating and i economy this was victory on a cause which is main priority when he became ukraine's president less than
5:24 am
a year on experts say this goal has been somewhat successful in twenty two and the country has seen a six percent growth in g.d.p. compared with a disastrous decline last year and this came partially due to less spending on imported natural resources the economy. successfully to the crisis. from russia. to the gas price to mr. price which will be a little bit. to. europe but despite the positive trend ski of still seems to be relying on the fifteen billion dollar loan from the international monetary fund borrow two years ago by the previous administration under viktor usually. the funds delegation has a right to kiev to assess whether the new government is fulfilling the loans obligations some of which are deeply unpopular among the people doing nations see
5:25 am
some progress. in two thousand and eight in two thousand crane finally has significantly raised the prices for. last fifty percent which was very negative for the. region. another sticking point is spend should reform namely raising the pension age which is required by the i.m.f. but not favored by the general population but is it all worth the effort economists believe that ukraine does not require more funding badly enough and the whole fuss is more about the country's image problem. russian. banks so but apart from that so the government
5:26 am
doesn't want much from the i.m.f. but not on the i.m.f. monny is important by the signal and since the government is doing the rise since the loan is split in several tranches and should this one go ahead it will become the second part of the loan and will amount to a little over one billion u.s. dollars the delegation says it will reveal its verdict no earlier than november the fifteenth experts have little doubts that this time the i.m.f. delegation will say yes to now the tragedy of money for ukraine the question is whether they will be as optimistic the next time inspectors come to kiev in february twenty eighth levon. before business today from key a few crane. computer chip maker intel says russia is the hub of engineering talent but it lacks people with business skills that's according to the head of intel's operations department as far as the software development that goes on russia is well over fifty percent of our total well it's
