  •   Force of a wind

    Attempts of more rational use of force of a wind are undertaken and in the Netherlands. Travelling today on the country, it is necessary to pay attention to the wind-driven generators which have replaced with self of a mill. However the existing technology yet does not allow to use widely similar installations because of their high cost.

    So, protection against the sea has made possible and necessary drainage of the separate, big areas in the sizes, and it has in turn caused requirement for maintenance on the drained sites of certain humidity of soil that was reached by use of drainage ditches, windmills, channels by which so the Netherlands is sated. Extremely careful and thought over relation to the earth became a basis of conducting highly productive agriculture. How many it was required diligence and persistence that on there is no time to receive poor soils high crops! In this activity Dutches have reached surprising results. Besides that within many centuries they have in essence created a powerful layer of a fertile soil, Netherlanders already began to regulate qualitative characteristics of milk purposeful entering into soil of those pastures or other fertilizers. Through a grass of such pastures of a cow receive various elements depending on mission of milk: Whether there is it on cheese, oil, dried milk or arrives to the consumer without processing.

    Undoubtedly, Netherlanders successfully struggle with the sea, but do not think, that it for them - the enemy. It is impossible to forget, that in the decision of far ancestors to be fixed in these places not last role the affinity of the sea rich with fish has played. It long since brought in to the country considerable incomes. Fish always took a worthy place on a table of Dutches. Fish dishes, and including the herring haring-salted by a special method, and are considered today as their favourite foods. Haring is on sale in streets from mobile trays, in seaports, moves at restaurants, he can be bought in supermarkets in a tinned kind.
