The EU’s [European Union] new deal provides for decoupled direct payments to farmers, which essentially means delinking subsidies from actual production. ... The policy, applicable mainly to cereals (dairy and sugar sectors are exempted), allows EU member countries to provide decoupled direct payment to arable farmers based on historical production reference years (2000-2002). Such support can also be provided to farmers who keep the land in "good agricultural condition."  2, record 2, English, - decoupled%20direct%20payment

We define a tropistic agent in an environment by a 6-tuple of the form shown below. The set S here includes all of the states of the external world, T is a set of partitions of S, A is a set of actions, see is a function that maps S into T, do is a function from A x S into S, and action is a function from T into A.(S, T, A, see, do, action) We can summarize the operation of a tropistic agent as follows. On each cycle, the agent's environment is in a state s. The agent observes the partition t corresponding to see(s). It uses action to find the action a appropriate to t. Then, it executes this action, thereby producing the state do(a, s). Then the cycle repeats.  1, record 7, English, - tropistic%20agent

Ethical consumption, also known as socially responsible consumption, is a trend where consumers ask questions about the company that produced the goods -- choosing to patronize the companies which have "positive" profiles and avoiding those with "negative" profiles.  3, record 10, English, - ethical%20consumption

The very name of "ethical consumption" is still an open issue, and varies from ethical consumption to consumption in solidarity, responsible consumption, and fair consumption.... The idea of "ethical consumption" should initially be based on a definition of ethics. For those who understand the concept of Ethics as the definition of criteria to identify Good and Evil, it is important for the concept of Ethical Consumption to include another idea of consumption that is not based on individualism. The word that best defines this relationship with the rest of the world is "solidarity. "It qualifies it and defines the importance of others in the ethical values on which consumption is based. In this case we are talking about "ethical consumption in solidarity. "There is also a simplified version called "consumption in solidarity", which appears in the literature referring to consumption that not only considers our personal welfare but also considers general welfare. This is a consumption in which production is completed, generating an impact on the ecosystem and society in general. Under this idea, the choice of type of consumption can benefit or hinder the creation or maintenance of the productive jobs in a specific society, the preservation of ecosystems and the promotion of the general welfare of communities, countries and the entire planet. "Responsible consumption"(an expression used in Europe, particularly in France), appears where there is an awareness of the power of consumers, which become economic units with an important role to play, just as important as businesses and market regulatory boards. It implies an idea of economy that wishes to provide answers to citizens who belong to an economic and political world that considers man as a mere consumer. In this respect, consuming in a different way represents paying attention to what the money that we give to buy goods and services is financing, thus bringing economic pressure to bear from below that compensates  4, record 10, English, - ethical%20consumption
