Slide 5

The structure of the earth's crust within Western Europe is complex. Ancient platforms coexist with younger parts of the earth's crust. In the north of the region are the ancient, heavily destroyed Scandinavian mountains. From the east, they are adjoined by plateaus, turning into hilly elevated and low-lying plains. To the south, the relief is dominated by hilly moraine and outwash plains, formed as a result of the activity of the glacier and its melt water.

Slide 6

The climate of Western Europe is temperate, transitional to continental, highly dependent on altitude. The winter is mild with frequent snowfalls, the coldest winter month is January, the temperature in the valleys drops to -2C, in the mountainous regions - to -14C.

The main crops are wheat, oats, potatoes, barley and sugar beets.

Belgium Dairy and beef cattle leading industry agriculture Belgium, gives over 70% of the cost of agricultural products. The country produces about 600 different brands of beer, some of which are years old. In Belgium, about a hundred different brands are produced, they make up about 3/4 of the total production volume, the most famous of them are Stella Artois and Jupiler. Vegetable growing and horticulture account for 20% of the value of agricultural products. Extensive plum and cherry orchards. Flowers and ornamental plants are grown. Big greenhouse in the vicinity of Brussels, where grapes, strawberries, mushrooms are grown for export.

Netherlands Floriculture prevails in some parts of the country. Fifth place in Europe for butter and fourth for cheese. The most common is grazing, with over 4.5 million heads of large cattle (about 3.5% of EU cattle). Potatoes, sugar beets and cereals are also grown. An important export item is high quality greenhouse and canned vegetables.

Luxembourg The total area of \u200b\u200bcultivated land in the duchy is 135 thousand hectares. Residents of Luxembourg annually harvest more than 140 thousand tons of grain, 35 thousand tons of potatoes, produce 250 thousand tons of milk, 15 thousand tons of beef and 9 thousand tons of pork. Meat and dairy farming predominates. Mainly cattle are bred. Luxembourg strives to intensify its livestock production, which is why more and more attention is paid to the housing of livestock and the development of industries such as the breeding of pigs, birds, rabbits and bees. Horticulture is well developed. Various fruit trees are cultivated, mainly apple, plum, pear, cherry. Viticulture is one of the most important industries.

Great Britain Animal husbandry prevails in the structure of agricultural production. Dairy and meat and dairy cattle breeding, pig breeding (bacon fattening), meat sheep breeding and poultry breeding are also developed. England is one of the world's largest suppliers of sheep's wool. Traditionally, animal husbandry is concentrated in river basins. In crop production, almost 60% of arable land is occupied perennial herbs, over 28% for grain crops (including 15% for wheat, 11% for barley); 12% under industrial (rapeseed, sugar beet, flax) and forage crops (including potatoes. The main agricultural regions are East England and the South-East. The country has orchards.

France France is one of the largest producers of agricultural products in Europe, occupies one of the leading places in the world in terms of the number of cattle, pigs, poultry and the production of milk, eggs and meat. Grain farming prevails in crop production; the main crops are wheat, barley, and corn. Winemaking is well developed (the world's leading wine producer).

Wine history in France Wine production in France began around the sixth century BC during the colonization of southern Gaul by Greek settlers. The monasteries had the resources, a sufficient level of protection and the motivation to produce consistent volumes of wine, both for their own use and for sale. At this time, the best vineyards belonged to the monasteries, and it was their wine that was considered the best. France is traditionally the largest consumer of its own wine,

Beneficial features Wine Wine contains some iron, and more importantly, it helps the body absorb iron from food if it is drunk with food. There are slightly more nutrients in red wines than in white ones. They contain vitamins B1, B2, C (in small amounts), vitamin P, which strengthens the walls of blood vessels and normalizes the metabolism of vitamin C, tannins, which have an astringent effect. Natural grape sugars - glucose and fructose - are almost completely fermented during the production of dry wines. Dry table wines contain scanty doses of sugar (no more than 1-1.2 g per liter).

Heat, stirring all the time, until the cheese melts and turns into a homogeneous thick mass. Add pepper and nutmeg. Cut the bread into cubes and dip into a dish.
