This book provides an in-depth analysis of the wheat production
developments in the Eurasian region and assesses the potential
contribution of the region to domestic and international food
security. In particular, the book covers policy and institutional
developments of the agricultural sector in Eurasia with a special
focus on the horizontal issues relevant to the current and future
potential growth of the wheat production, such as land policy,
credit and finance, privatization, farm restructuring, and
environmental challenges. Global food security is a major societal
concern in the light of an increasing population, which is
projected to grow from around seven billion today to almost 10
billion in 2050. Two most likely ways to achieve the much needed
food production growth are: expansion of land cultivation or
increase in crop yields and total factor productivity. The only
region with a significant amount of uncultivated arable land that
is at the same time experiencing rising agricultural productivity
is the "Eurasian wheat belt," comprising of Russia, Ukraine,
Kazakhstan, and the Central Asian countries (Uzbekistan,
Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Kirgizstan). This makes the region a
potential hotspot for driving the future growth of global
agriculture. Such prospects require a detailed investigation of
Eurasia's future perspectives in terms of food production (with a
focus on wheat) and its potential contribution to regional and
global food security.
Join the Arithmechicks on a mathematical adventure in the big city!
Help them solve a mystery in this playful picture book that
demonstrates the concept of ordinal numbers in a clever story
featuring ten math-loving chicks. Publishers Weekly described the
Arithmechicks as an "enjoyable resource for young ones stepping up
their counting game." The Arithmechicks and Mouse are excited to be
traveling to the city-even more so when they learn that Mama has
planned a secret scavenger hunt, culminating in a mysterious 10th
stop! But when one chick wants to be the best, he starts disrupting
the plans. How can these frustrated chicks (and Mouse) show their
sibling that it's better to work together? This adventure with the
Arithmechicks is made up of math, a mystery, and, most of all,
humor and heart. Ann Marie Stephens draws upon thirty years of
teaching experience to ensure that readers absorb math while having
fun. The book also includes a helpful glossary that defines the
modern arithmetic strategies the chicks use throughout the story.
Join the Arithmechicks on all of their math adventures! Readers
will explore addition in Arithmechicks Add Up, subtraction in
Arithmechicks Take Away, fact families in Arithmechicks Take a
Calculation Vacation, greater than/less than/equal to in
Arithmechicks Explore More, fractions in Arithmechicks Play Fair,
and ordinal numbers in Arithmechicks Find Their Place.
Proficiency Entry Tests provides practice with the language and
types of tasks that appear in the CPE Entry Test to develop the
skills necessary for success.
The Arithmechicks prove that love is greater than disappointment in
this heartwarming story about a hike, a lost stuffed animal, and
the math concepts of greater than, less than, and equal to.
Publishers Weekly described the Arithmechicks as an "enjoyable
resource for young ones stepping up their counting game." Join the
Arithmechicks and Mouse as they head off to the wilderness! These
chicks can't wait to hike up the ridge, find delicious berries,
and, best of all, spend time with their duckling cousins! But the
day is off to a bad start when one duckling accidentally leaves a
beloved stuffed animal on the bus. How can these chicks (and Mouse)

This exuberant picture book demonstrates key math concepts to
children as ten math-loving chicks make a new friend. As the
Arithmechicks slide down the slide, swing on the swings, and play
hide-and-seek, they don't realize that a lonely mouse is copying
them, longing to join in. However, when their basketball becomes
stuck, the chicks discover that a two-inch-tall new friend is
exactly what they need. In this heartwarming story, there are many
ways to add up ten cheerful chicks--but a new friend is what makes
them cheer. The book includes a helpful glossary that defines the
eight arithmetic strategies the chicks use throughout the story,
providing a playful introduction to essential math for young
children and their caregivers.
