Standards allow for smooth transactions of goods, and ultimately protect the consumer.
Nutrient enriched crops, also called biofortified crops, are a relatively recent innovation developed by HarvestPlus and its CGIAR global agricultural research partners to improve the micronutrient content of the world’s most-widely consumed staples, without use of transgenic modification. The primary objective of these traditionally bred crops is to tackle micronutrient deficiency (hidden hunger) on a large scale.
Trailer problems persist for village Soldiers Grove
SOLDIERS GROVE - The trailer, situated in the Soldiers Grove Village Park, that was a problem addressed by the village board in December has popped back up at another location in the village. The trailer is now located on a property on Tavern Road, after having been ejected from the park. The owners of the trailer by report moved it to Readstown before being “chased out.”
In December, Soldiers Grove Village President Paul Nicholson advocated for enactment of a new ‘Trespassing and Public Campground Ordinance,’ after it was determined that the Crawford County Sheriff would not assist the village in seeing the camper removed. The board adopted the ordinance, and the camper was moved.

Horne, 37, had earlier pleaded guilty to being concerned in the supply of the class B drug known as Mcat as well as converting or concealing criminal cash - the proceeds from the drug dealing of Penrith man Paul Nicholson. During a brief hearing, prosecutor Jeremy Grout Smith told Judge Nicholas Barker that the defendant, from Bolton, near Appleby, had benefitted from her crime to the tune of £28,594. That illegal cash had been being put into her Cooperative bank account, said the prosecutor. But the available amount [from the defendant] has been agreed to be £600, added Mr Grout-Smith.
