**The Ministry of Agriculture has received an official directive to create a nationwide agricultural TV channel, which Dmitry Medvedev had promised to participants of the All-Russian Rural Assembly in Barnaul on the eve of his election as President of the Russian Federation. **http://www.kommersant.ru/doc.aspx?DocsID=867858 We already have a TV channel for the military, and one for lawyers. There is even a special radio station for children—something that apparently exists nowhere else in the world (Gazprom Media). And now there will also be a TV channel for agricultural workers. Now the peasants will be able to learn about their own achievements around the clock right from the TV screen and not be distracted by all sorts of nonsense, like rye coming into ear, winter crops steaming in the heat, and rain during drying.
