Come and hear two teams debate the topic "Increasing agricultural production is the only way to feed 9 billion people by 2050"

Ensuring global food security for future generations is one of the greatest challenges of our time.

Increases in agricultural productivity in the second half of the 20th century did much to alleviate hunger in developing countries. However, the rate of this productivity increase is slowing. Do we need another ‘green revolution’ to feed our growing population? Should the focus of investment be on the sustainable intensification of agriculture? Can we continue to push agricultural productivity further while still meeting expectations that resources will be used more efficiently and without harming the environment?

Australian consumers waste large amounts of food every year, and we are not alone. In addition to consumer wastage, vital foodstuffs are lost on the journey from paddock to plate. Political issues can also prevent the movement of food from places of excess to places of need. Do we already produce enough food to feed our growing population? Should the focus of investment be on reducing waste along food value-chains? Is food security a problem of politics rather than production? At this exciting and important debate, six experts in two teams will argue for your vote.

About
The Russian-born British pianist, Nikolai Demidenko, began playing before the age of five, learning on his grandfather's old, beaten-up piano. By the age of six, he was a student of Anna Kantor (Evgeny Kissin's teacher) at the Gnessin School of Music. An obstinate student who disliked scales and technique, Demidenko still made swift progress, and he eventually entered the Moscow Conservatory. There, he studied with Dmitri Bashkirov, whom Demidenko credits with fostering his more individual qualities as a player, as well as ironing out the remaining wrinkles in his technique. Reaching the finals of both the 1976 Montreal competition and the 1978 Tchaikovsky competition in Moscow (where he played through an acute case of the flu) served as a final springboard to professional recognition.

Programme

Set in a pretty Swiss Alpine hamlet the villagers are celebrating the betrothal of Amina to the wealthy young landowner Elvino, with the exception of Lisa, the local innkeeper, who had hoped to marry Elvino herself. A stranger and local aristocrat, Count Rodolfo, arrives to wish the couple well, but his obvious attraction to Amina arouses Elvino’s jealousy. Amina’s mother reminds the locals of the village’s nocturnal apparition and asks them to leave for the night.

Rodolfo retires to the inn where he is recognized by Lisa, who visits him in his room, but flees when she hears an outside noise, leaving her handkerchief behind. Walking in her sleep and talking of her forthcoming marriage to Elvino, Amina suddenly enters. Rodolfo departs but she is discovered there by Elvino, who had been summoned by Lisa, and the villagers who had arrived to apparently pay their respects to the Count.

As a result Elvino decides to break the engagement leaving Amina dazed and grief-stricken. He also refuses to believe the Count’s protestations of her innocence and decides to marry Lisa instead, but is again totally disillusioned when Teresa produces the handkerchief that Lisa left in Rodolfo’s room.

At that moment Amina appears from the nearby mill again sleepwalking. The Count explains somnambulism and to everyone’s delight Elvino awakens Amina and begs her forgiveness. The pair are reunited in love and live happily ever after.

Bellini’s hauntingly beautiful score uses these emotional events to create one of his greatest masterpieces that includes many of his most famous arias, ensembles and choruses. Julie Edwardson’s delightful new production created in 2010 for the Opera Conference comes to Adelaide for the first time with a stellar cast conducted by Benjamin Northey

Riot City Wrestling captures the appeal of all ages, ranging from toddlers to grandparents, with a strong following from young adults, and an equal ratio of male and female fans. The wrestlers are very dedicated to their sport, and train up to 4 times a week at the Riot City Wrestling Academy, with a strong focus on Cardio and strength training. The wrestlers also travel interstate as part of a network of talent exchange RCW has established with various federations throughout Australia, and also wrestle on international touring events, such as 2010's International Assault Tour featuring well known wrestlers from America's top federations. The roster of professional wrestlers are supported by a dedicated production team and event crew, including event management, marketing & Design professionals, commentators, photographers, dvd camera crew, security personnel, bar/canteen and merchandise staff, and top quality sound and lighting production.
