Why TED talks suck now
TIL I learned the difference between TED and TEDx. >TEDx events are independently organized TED-like conferences that operate under a free license granted by TED. While they follow the general principles of TED, TEDx events are planned and coordinated by volunteers at the local level, aiming to bring the TED experience to a broader audience.

Version longue:
Le gouvernement offre des aides à l'arrachage pour les viticulteurs afin de réguler la production viticole et de soutenir les agriculteurs face à des défis économiques. Voici quelques raisons principales :
-
Surproduction : Dans certaines régions, une surproduction de vin peut entraßner une baisse des prix. L'arrachage de vignes permet de réduire l'offre sur le marché, ce qui peut stabiliser les prix.
-
Qualité du vin : En encourageant l'arrachage de vignes moins productives ou de variétés moins prisées, le gouvernement peut aider à améliorer la qualité globale de la production viticole.
-
Soutien économique : Les aides financiÚres permettent aux viticulteurs de faire face à des difficultés économiques, en leur offrant une compensation pour la perte de revenus liée à l'arrachage.
-
Adaptation aux changements climatiques : Certaines vignes peuvent ne plus ĂȘtre adaptĂ©es aux nouvelles conditions climatiques. L'arrachage peut permettre aux viticulteurs de replanter des variĂ©tĂ©s plus rĂ©sistantes ou mieux adaptĂ©es.
-
Politique agricole : Ces aides s'inscrivent souvent dans le cadre de politiques agricoles plus larges visant à soutenir la durabilité et la compétitivité du secteur viticole.
Ces mesures visent à assurer la pérennité de l'industrie viticole tout en répondant aux enjeux économiques et environnementaux.
