However, they emphasized that this does not diminish the long-term investment case. Instead, the recent trade dispute highlighted the structural…

Rolls-Royce is trialling new technology at its Derby facilities in an effort to prevent sand and dust from damaging its jet engines. The problem has long affected airlines flying in the Middle East — one of the company’s most crucial markets. During take-off, sand and fine dust can be drawn into the hottest parts of an engine, accelerating corrosion and raising internal temperatures when coolant holes become blocked. While the issue does not compromise flight safety, it does reduce engine efficiency and increases how often maintenance is required, as protective coatings deteriorate more quickly. “The dust can reach the hottest…

Cardamom pods in a bowl — GraaymaOnly saffron and vanilla are more expensive than cardamom by weight. “People often assume cardamom is a highly profitable crop — and it can be. But it’s also the hardest crop a farmer can grow,” says Stanley Pothan, who has cultivated cardamom in the southern Indian state of Kerala for decades.

You have to be in the field constantly, observing every leaf and every flower. It demands attention every…
