When one of the flood embankments of the Nysa River required immediate reinforcement, the company delivered 1 000 specialist big bags with a load-bearing capacity of 1 ton each. This allowed for the rapid organization of the action of reinforcing the weakened flood embankment using helicopters.

At another critical moment, during the night and early morning hours, Bioagra and its workers responded immediately to deliver several dump trucks of sand and rubble. These were used to reinforce another breach in the embankment.

– We were relieved when it turned out that the company’s support came on time at a critical moment for the safety of Nysa’s residents – says Mirosław Obarski from Bioagra. – We managed to limit the losses, but we continue to help because the situation in Nysa and the surrounding area is still difficult.

Bioagra has prepared another emergency aid package in the form of many dump trucks of rubble and specialized foil. They will be used to strengthen and temporarily rebuild the flood embankment that was washed away outside Nysa. The company has also prepared a package of 5 specialist pumps and a mobile water tanker to remove water from flooded underground garages and basements in Nysa.

 

The Bioagra production plant located near Nysa is in constant contact with those in charge of the rescue and damage removal operations. The company responds almost immediately to all requests concerning, for example, specialist big bags, sand, aggregate, plastic sleeves and transport of these products to indicated locations in the Nysa Commune.

According to Bioagra, the involvement of companies and institutions as well as hundreds of city residents in rescue operations shows how important it is for the private, public and local community sectors to cooperate in crisis situations.

Bioagra would like to thank all company employees for their involvement in the flood prevention campaign.

A unique event for people with disabilities and their carers, the outdoor event “Wrześniowe Country”, once again gathered nearly a 1 000 participants.

The event, which is being held for the 12th time, has an extraordinary character. It brings together people with disabilities, preschoolers and volunteers in the spirit of fun and mutual support.

This year’s edition of the outdoor event “September Country”, organized by the Day Care Facility for the Disabled Caritas of the Opole Diocese in Nysa, was an opportunity to integrate the disabled community and the local community. The event was attended by approximately 1,000 participants, including residents of dozens of care centers, students from Nysa kindergartens and numerous volunteers from local educational institutions.

The organization of the event was once again supported by Bioagra, which provided flour and oil to prepare thousands of pierogi, which are the culinary hallmark of the event. The event was attended by Mr. Corn, the company’s mascot, who entertained the participants, posed for photos and took part in games and fun.

“September Country” offered a wide entertainment program. The attractions included singing and dancing, competitions with prizes and fun activities. The event, held every year, unites the local community, but also builds awareness of the available forms of support for people with disabilities in the Nysa region.

Bioagra’s involvement in organizing this event highlights the importance of partnerships between local companies and organizations working for social integration. Thanks to initiatives such as “September Country”, people with disabilities can feel like full members of society, enjoying shared fun and support from the local community.

 

Last weekend, the final matches for the Nysa Beach Volleyball Championship took place. The event attracted over 140 players from all over the country. In the men’s category, the title was won by the pair of Michał Nalborski from Nysa and Jakub Korczyk from Andrychów.

– For the first time in the new history of the Nysa Beach Volleyball Championships, the title was won by a resident of Nysa – says Wojtek Kondracki, president of the Volley Beach Nysa Volleyball Club. – The final tournament, in which the best pairs from the entire championship cycle played, was extremely even. This is evidenced by the huge, record number of tie-breaks necessary to decide the match.

For the second time in the history of the reactivated competition, both women’s and men’s categories were competed in. The tournament was attended by competitors from various indoor leagues, but also by amateurs.

As the competition organizers emphasize, in this discipline all participants have a chance to win, regardless of their league reputation. Technical skills and experience are the basis for success, but beach conditions equalize or reverse the chances.

The winning pair is Michał Nalborski (a dietician from Nysa) and Jakub Korczyk (a firefighter from Andrychów), who won the gold medal in indoor volleyball with his team two years ago during the World Firefighters and Police Games. In the grand finale, they defeated the pair of Mateusz Podborączyński, from Kędzierzyn Koźle, the current vice-champion of Poland in beach volleyball, and Paweł Malicki from Wrocław.

Playing on the sand requires much more energy than on the court. Despite this, the women’s final tournament saw a record-breakingly long and very close match on the Nysa beach, that lasted 70 minutes.

The organizers point out that the competition maintained a high turnout during all the tournament eliminations. In total, over 80 men and 60 women participated and a total of several hundred matches were played. In the finals of the Nysa 2024 Championships, the eight best women’s pairs and sixteen men’s pairs competed.

Best women’s pairs:

In the women’s category, the winner was a pair from Wrocław, Karolina Olszewska and Justyna Brożek, who – despite losing in the first match, which is allowed by the Brazilian tournament system – won the entire tournament. In the final, also after a tie-break, they defeated Karolina Nowak from Ruda Kozielska and Paulina Szymańska from Kraków (2:1). Third place went to the favourites from Poznań, Klaudia Parzyńska and Jagoda Radzewicz, who defeated players from Milicz and Kalisz, Małgorzata Vlk and Magda Lachman.

Best Men’s Pairs:

The 2024 Nysa Champions were Michał Nalborski and Jakub Korczyk, who turned the tables and defeated the favored team with the current Polish vice-champion title, Mateusz Podborączyński and Paweł Malicki (2:1). Third place went to last year’s Nysa Champions, Szymon Bak and Mikołaj Sarnecki from Kędzierzyn-Koźle, who defeated the pair from Sieradz and Kalisz, Paweł Kozielski and Olek Walaszyk (2:1 after a tie-break).

 

The competition in the Nysa Beach Volleyball Championships series that was held last weekend, was a test of sports skills and endurance. The championships are played in the Brazilian system, which provides much greater excitement than the cup system popular in Europe.

The players competing in the Nysa Beach Volleyball Championships had to mobilize additional resources of endurance this weekend. The weather was beautiful, but on the pitch it meant something completely different than on the neighboring beach.

The air temperature reached almost 40 degrees Celsius, which caused the sand to heat up to about 60 degrees. This forced the organizers to regularly water the pitch to ensure the players had the right conditions for playing.

 

In the Brazilian system, unlike the knockout system, a team is eliminated from the tournament only after its second defeat. This approach increases the number of matches to be played, but guarantees much greater excitement. Even teams that have lost in the early stages can still fight for high places. In extreme cases, like this weekend, a team can revive during the competition and reach for the top spot.

The next eliminations, the last this year, will take place in a week. The final, in which the best teams from the entire competition cycle will play, takes place on August 3rd and 4th.

The beautiful beach in Skorochów once again turned into an arena of sports competition at the highest level. The Nysa Beach Volleyball Championship is underway, supported by Bioagra for the fourth year in a row.

The excellent organization and unique location of the championship, which has been held on the beach in Skorochów since 2021, gave the event its unquestionable prestige and popularity today. This year, five qualifying tournaments are planned, which will determine the sixteen best men’s and eight women’s pairs. The grand finale is scheduled for early August this year.

The high level of competition and gusty wind and hot weather were quite challenging for the competitors taking part in the first qualifying tournament. Among the women, the best pairs were Aleksandra Gromadowska and Agnieszka Adamek (1st place), Małgorzata Vlk and Magda Lachman (2nd place) and Julia Pańko and Paulina Wiśniewska (3rd place). The men’s competition was dominated by Paweł Malicki and Mateusz Podboryczyński. Second place went to Janek Lesiuk and Radek Brzozowski, and third place went to Mikołaj Sarnecki and Szymon Bąk.

The Polish Fishing Association in Opole, with the support of Bioagra, carried out another restocking of Lake Nysa. This time, 50 kg of young eels were released into the reservoir. Each individual, weighing about 12 grams, was born in the depths of the Sargasso Sea, on the other side of the globe.

As in previous seasons, several hundred thousand young fish of various species will be brought to Lake Nysa this year. The current campaign is part of the activity that Bioagra has been supporting since 2009, cooperating with the Polish Fishing Association in Opole. For this purpose, the company donates PLN 14k each year

– The company has been supporting the process of stocking Lake Nysa for over a dozen years – says Mirosław Obarski from Bioagra. – Stocking allows you to create a fully-fledged aquatic ecosystem.

Young eels, zanders, pike, carp, crucian carp and tench end up in Lake Nysa. Fish act as a natural filter in water reservoirs. They cleanse water bodies from excess vegetation and phytoplankton. Predatory fish regulate the population of the so-called peaceful feeding fish, e.g. bream, crucian carp, roach.

– In May, the so-called restocking eel entered Lake Nysa – says Jakub Roszuk, ichthyologist, director of the Polish Fishing Association (PZW) office in Opole. – These are individuals grown in artificial conditions, caught from the Atlantic Ocean, where they drift after birth in the depths of the Sargasso Sea.

The eel is one of the most fascinating and mysterious fish living in Polish water bodies. It usually lives in water, but during migrations it can even crawl on land at a speed of about 3 km/h. It can breathe through its skin and can therefore survive out of water for up to two days.

Eels undertake a one and a half year breeding journey. During this time, they migrate from inland waters to the Sargasso Sea on the other side of the Atlantic. They spawn there at a depth of up to 1 000 meters. Adults die, leaving behind eel larvae that can drift towards Europe for up to two years.

The European eel has been considered an endangered species. Since 2007, it has been protected under the Washington Convention (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora).
