Field journalism is essential (Journalist view - builds the world)
Observing and evaluating reality begins with an accurate understanding and interpretation of an object. So, who, when, where and how to answer the questions represents the essence of the message and the information, and why, why, and why the purpose is to analyze the generalities of the connection between events. The first is knowledge, and the second is also knowledge. The presence of industry journalism, specialized journalism in Spain, is not surprising. We know that we have a creative union of journalists in Uzbekistan. It would also be appropriate for them to carry out their activities through the cooperation with the Spanish media, in the sense of sharing experiences. The essence of specialized journalism is inevitably contributing to the development of the country. During our business and creative journey, Shukhratjon Suyunov, a representative for the Minister of Water Resources of the Republic of Uzbekistan, expressed his admiration for the fact that we do not have a journalistic association specializing in covering any sector.
We reiterated this fact during our study tour to Spain with members and specialists from the Association of Journalists who analyze the Agro-food sector of the country. Therefore, we felt that a field journalist should have the eyes, ears, feet, and heart of the system. They should be in close contact with researchers, scientists and experts conducting research in the field. Only then will the comments be valid and justified. Keeping up to date with industry-related news and inventions is a great success.
These issues highlighted during a training by Spanish journalists and industry experts on how to cover agriculture and PR. There are good examples of the work of the media in raising and covering water distribution and drinking water issues on irrigated land, which recognized as a global problem. The Association of Journalists covering the Agro-Food Industry of Spain aims to further improve, develop, and promote agro-food activity. All journalists covering the field are members of the Association. It said that the rivers of Spain mostly saturated with rainwater. Of course, in spring, the flow of the rivers increases, and in the summer, the water decreases and some rivers become dry. That is why reservoirs have built to collect water. The years of drought suffer from water scarcity.
Basin administrations operate to control and control large river water similar to Uzbekistan. 78% of the total water resources in the country directed to agriculture, 17% to the needs of the population, 5% to the industrial and electricity production. The training covered the processes related to the search, retrieval and dissemination of industry information. The Ministry of Water Management is a national partner, funded by the European Union “Promoting Partnership and Awareness for Sustainable Water and Environmental Development in Uzbekistan. It is no coincidence that the Central Asian Regional Environmental Center has organized a study tour to Spain in the framework of Component 3(UzWaterAware).
The event began in the old building of the Spanish School of Engineering for the Preparation of Agricultural Engineers. It will be attend by international expert, coordinator Alexandro Pastrana (Alejandro Patrana), director of the Higher School of Technology Luis Ricote, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Uzbekistan to Spain Jakhongir Ganiev (Director of RETS branch Shakhnoza Umarova); the president of the association, Lourdes Zuriga, was also present. Then Lurdes Suryaga's report on the importance of PR-communication in the agro-food sector was full of rich facts and content. Miguel Angel Maynar, APAE's Secretary General and EUC Agro course director Elisa Plumed, APAE Vice President for Communication between Government and Public, also spoke about the experience of water and irrigation information in Spain.
In his speech, Lugars expressed deep insight into journalistic activities.
"Most journalists and reporters prefer to speak technical language and numbers. The simpler in the interpretation, the public will understand it. The lively and understandable language is the key to getting people to the heart of the city. Analytical journalism plays an important role in explaining how widespread desertification is, and I cannot say anything about how repairs made in Andalusia, but the cooperatives opened their business. . Fast and the establishment of long-term investment to serve the development of the country, the issue of the distribution of the water lines and journalists cannot be ignore. The theme was good to know the state of the economy depth study of the level of development within the principles of journalistic activity.
There are such cooperatives that export 2 million lemons. Therefore, export is a serious matter. This is a determining factor in the effectiveness and quality of the actions. “It is the journalist's responsibility to analyze the successes and disadvantages in this regard", he said. Elisa Rlume Lucas then acknowledged that her journalistic activity for 15 years exclusively focused on agriculture and water management, animal husbandry, and said she would object if they write about sports. After all, his interest and knowledge directly related to the secrets of soil, water and productive harvesting. He noted that each country, with a focus on the development of specialized journalistic industry, the government.
In Spain, the Department of Water Resources is part of the Ministry of Environmental Transition and Demographic Issues. The Department deals with water use, planning, financing and control. Irrigated land in the country is 3.5 million m². All water resources are at the disposal of the state. Water for irrigation is supplied free of charge to consumers. Because rivers formed by rainwater, water cannot be controlled without platinum. There are more than 1,200 major platinum’s across the country. 400 are state-owned and more than 800 privately owned.
71% of secondary water use is used for irrigation due to water shortages. At a meeting in the Water Resources Department of the Spanish Ministry of Ecological Transition and Demographic Issues, journalists informed about the fact. The study tour to Spain organized by the European Union Ministry of Water Affairs, the European Union-funded project “Strengthening Cooperation and Awareness for Sustainable Water and Environmental Development in Uzbekistan. Central Asia Regional Environmental Center within Component 3 (UzWaterAware) is worth noting that the participation of journalists in the project has been successful.
