Soviet Asia

Nevertheless there are limits to adaptation. Over the Canadian Prairies, and in Soviet Asia, for example, a northward migration of spring wheat cultivation may be difficult or impossible, because of adverse soil conditions. In fact there will everywhere be a protracted delay in bringing climate, soil and vegetation into a new equilibrium. The resulting misfit may have adverse economic consequences in many places. [Pg.437]

The wodd reserves of lead are estimated at 71 x 10 t and scattered around the wodd (1). Over one-third (25 x 10 t) of this total is located in North America where the United States has, in units of 10 t, 14 Canada, 7 Mexico, 3 and other sources, 1. South America has 2 Europe, 11 Africa, 4 and Austraha, 14 X 10 t. In Asia, the former Soviet Union has 9 and the People s RepubHc of China has 6 x 10 t. The recovery of lead from scrap is of prime importance in supplying U.S. demands so that the entire reserve base is estimated at 120 x 10 t. Total wodd resources are estimated at 1.4 x 10 t. [Pg.32]

World production of synthetic ammoma hos increased dramatically particularly during the period 1950-80. Production in 1950 was Mule more ihan 1 million tonnes, thou this was huge when compared with the production of most o r compounds, it is dwarfed by today s rale of production which exceeds 120 million tonnes pa. In 1990 world production capacity was 119.6 million tunoes distributed os follows Asia 35.4%, the former Soviet Umon 21,5%. North America 13 8%, Western Europe 11.3%, Ea rem Europe 9.7% Latin America 5.3%, Africa 30%. The price of NH3 (FOB Gulf Coast plants, USA) was l07/tonne in 1990. [Pg.422]

Hard-working and successful small farmers remained productive and were an affront to Soviet collectivism. Referring to these enterprising farmers as kulaks (clenched fist in Russian), Stalin orchestrated the liquidation of kulaks as a class. Thousands were executed, and millions were deported to Siberia or Central Asia. [Pg.43]

A point of potential misidentification should be mentioned here. 2C-T-2 has occasionally been called, simply, T-2. This abbreviated nickname has also been used for T-2 Toxin, a mycotoxin of the Tricothecene group, formed mainly by the Fusarium spp. This is the infamous warfare agent in Southeast Asia, which was finally identified as bee feces rather than a Soviet military adventure. T-2 and 2C-T-2 are radically different compounds. [Pg.56]

From 1994 to 1998 world nitrogen fertilizer consumption increased at an average rate of 3% per year. Socialist Asia, South Asia and Latin American led the consumption increases. Consumption in Western Europe stabilized while demand in the former Soviet Union continued to fall. From 1998 to 2000, world nitrogen fertilizer consumption increased more slowly than it had in the previous period36. [Pg.21]

Worldwide, ammonia capacity grew from 119 million tonnes in 1980 to a peak of 141 million tonnes in 1989. Virtually all the growth in capacity occurred in the Former Soviet Union (FSU) and Asia. Between 1989 and 1995 capacity remained relatively flat, with increases in Asia being offset by closures in Europe and the FSU36. Ammonia demand grew at a rate of 3.2% per year from 1993 to 1998, but the growth rate is expected to slow to 0.5% per year from 1998 through 200237. [Pg.25]

After the first production of homopolymer and copolymers a rapid expansion of production of acetal resins by different companies occurred worldwide starting in the 1960s. Acetal copolymer was produced by Polyplastics (joined company of Hoechst and Daicel) in Japan, by BASF and Degussa in Europe, by Asahi, Mitsubishi in Japan in the 1970s. Plants were built in Poland and the Soviet Union recently in the 1990s new plants were constructed in Asia, Korea, and Taiwan. The names and the capacity of production of these acetal resins is given in the following text. [Pg.727]
