Qatar develops integrated food security system with strategic grain reserve Doha, Qatar: The State of Qatar has developed a comprehensive, sustainable national food security system to strengthen local production, diversify supply sources, and ensure stable food availability nationwide. As part of strengthening national reserves, Qatar has enhanced its strategic grain storage capacity to approximately 320,000 tonnes, ensuring a reliable supply of essential food commodities and reinforcing the country’s preparedness for emergencies or supply disruptions. Demonstrating Qatar’s achievements in the food security sector in an illustrative video on X, the Ministry of Municipality said that the integrated system covers the entire food value chain, from production and storage to marketing, through close cooperation between government entities and the private sector. It added that the initiative supports Qatari farms and provides platforms to market local agricultural products, contributing to the diversified production of vegetables, poultry, dairy products, and fish to meet the needs of the domestic market. In Qatar, the Ministry said that food security is based on an integrated national framework that relies on forward planning, diversified supply sources, and strong support for local production. The Ministry of Municipality leads this system through the development of policies and the enhancement of supply chain resilience. The agricultural sector has witnessed rapid growth...

Geometric origin of particle and dislocation dynamics during grain boundary migration Extended Data Fig. 1 Effect of w on the resulting O-lattice. (a) The calculated average distance between a lattice site and its nearest O-lattice site 〈∣ΔRT,O∣〉, and (b) the O-lattice spacing, that is the length of the O-lattice vector ∣a1∣, both as a function of the misorientation θ for all values of w. Note that panel (a) is equivalent to Fig. 2(d) in the main text. Extended Data Fig. 2 Predicting the particle dynamics underlying GB migration through O-cell construction. (a-e) Particle trajectories as observed in experiments with superimposed the particle displacements as predicted by our O-cell approach (black arrows) for (a) θ = 9∘, (b) θ = 18∘, and for (near)-CSL misorientations (c) θ = 13∘, (d) θ = 22∘, and (e) θ = 28∘, corresponding to Σ19, Σ7, and Σ13 GBs, respectively. Note that panels (a,b) are equivalent to Fig. 3(a,b) in the main text. Extended Data Fig. 3 Effect of thermal fluctuations on the particle dynamics during GB migration as observed in dMC simulations. (a-c) Particle trajectories with superimposed the particle displacements as predicted by our O-cell approach (black arrows) for an misorientation of θ = 13. 2∘ for a packing fraction (a) ϕ = 0.78, (b)...
