and, though he repeated, over and over again, the spectacular figures of industrial and agricultural production in 1980, the `` ordinary '' people in Russia are still a little uncertain as to how `` communism '' is really going to work in practice, especially in respect of food.

Many food and beverage companies are already on a highly planned basis.

The basic objectives in each instance are to make available supplies of food during the intervals between harvesting or slaughter, to minimize losses resulting from the action of microorganisms and insects, and to make it possible to transport foods from the area of harvest or production to areas of consumption.

For irradiation of food, the results obtained depend upon the dose rather than the specific type of radiation, and X-ray, gamma, and high-energy electron radiation are suitable.

Because agricultural activities are seasonal and the areas of production and harvest of many foods are widely scattered geographically, and because of the high cost of transporting bulk food items any substantial distance to a central processing location, the use of large central processing stations, where low-cost radiation facilities approaching the megawatt range might be utilized, is inherently impracticable.

The school finds that the children are satisfied with smaller amounts of food since all of it is high in quality.

However, algorithms are also implemented by other means, such as in a biological neural network ( for example, the human brain implementing arithmetic or an insect looking for food ), in an electrical circuit, or in a mechanical device.

Many food plants are, or are grown as, annuals, including virtually all domesticated grains.

Species are used as food and flavourings ( e. g. onion, garlic, leek, asparagus, vanilla ), as cut flowers ( e. g. freesia, gladiolus, iris, orchids ), and as garden ornamentals ( e. g. day lilies, lily of the valley, Agapanthus ).
