the real media now, on youtube, we all want to have a healthy and sustainable lifestyle, right. i know that it's not easy, but a few young people live on earth and we all need to eat and preserve our beautiful planet. is it even possible to do both? yes, using tech and smart farming. is that what topic on shift today to there's no future without sustainable farming to help farmers grow more food with less company codes . there are many stops that use data analysis to examine everything from soil conditions to climate changes to the most efficient ways to use fertilizer. so far, however, this data is not equally accessible to everyone. for instance, when it comes to data from space,

satellites are rarely gathering info from sub saharan africa. a canyon start up wants to change this using artificial intelligence. this from uh, from the airy kenya has been working with satellite images to increase his crop, used to support since by us, stop up specializing in eco friendly technology from the capital nairobi. their goal farmers should have access to more data on the soil, the weather, and future changes to the climates using the data we able to, to create to models this model. so that help us, you know, to, in this time what is happening at the farm at any point in time for the farm as like marketing when you keep climate change just making it increasingly difficult to tell when to stop slowing. his hopes, slow rest on the data from the software i'm you need which could help him to be more efficient. when you have enough data about the woodland,

we have a little every day and is going to come monday to not last long. it will be shortly easy lou lou potatoes in last 3 months. but yeah, cool. if it is going to be longer and then you know, we are going to be made of those plants that go for a longer period. i mean, he gave us with a and so it was a so from set to lights in space and analyzes this using a i. the company is based in nairobi since most satellites. i'm not directed towards gathering data from africa, guessing high quality and reliable data is challenging. i mean, you follow the kids. caleb's wants to change this. we wanted to make sure that countries in the global south were also equipped with the same platforms that the global knows have been able to get access to. and if the west of the global nurse, as accelerated as created the world that we see today, sort of technology africa hasn't been able to capture that revolution because of

the lack of high quality and accessible data. kate kilo isn't tackling this challenge alone. she wants to fundamentally change how data is gathered across africa and is thus co operating with academic research institutes. and can you use machine learning to protect the climate? the ultimate thing which we building that i mean, is onto leave a legacy to the african continent. so we hoping that as we continue to work with the students and build capacity within the continent, they come and take over and bring that. that's um that mission and the vision a 100 times further. and that's uh, that's what we'll be able to do it today. in less than 5 years, i mean, he has already raised more than $2000000.00. kate cal, it wants to use the sets of live data to improve. i mean, nice machine learning system. the data can provide more information on the impact of climate change. and the scope, the farm is on the grounds. here,

small scale farm is especially important to when i see people who say, well, these farms actually don't have an impact to have it in time. when you put 600 millions of them together, they feed the entire content and that's very powerful and that's why we should care about these fund supporting individuals, thomas. that's also important. small farms produce around 35 percent of the world's food, despite using just 12 percent of all agricultural land. that means the essential for our nutrition. one project that support small farmers is in all of them camera room. a classroom in the north of camera room. and this calls from us use v r headsets to enter virtual fields and learn how to keep the real world's cotton plants pest free fit to do for much on this type of training. let's farmers practices new methods or is by being able to try them out. they

understand the challenges better and kind of that quote, hold on a new color. watch. see how the whole p loans house will grow cotton from his parents. now he'd like to try new methods and expand his skill sets the v r headset, let's in train on the virtual co fields here. he can zoom closer to the plans in order to spots potential pest infestation. that's good, tom. the plants, another valuable lesson from the causes that spiders, each caps up your loss, can be helpful for pest control. if i'm a big deal, feels like you're inside the video on the fields and can observe what's happened. that's the one that's being really helpful for us. for me is some of it is, it is something in this virtual world, the farm as also learn how to produce biological pesticide spray by mixing ground mean seats with water, vegetable oil, and a bit of detergents. not only is it more eco friendly and less harmful to humans

than chemical pesticides, but it's also much cheaper. all the techniques taught in the are precisely resembled re live situations. you most if learning is also cheaper than regular training, as there are no costs for transport and accommodation become a reunion custom expos company. so total also profits from well trained farmers don't. well, but you can have the right to equipment the without the appropriate training. we won't be able to produce good cotton. this education helps the farmers to improve the techniques and produce high quality costs. i agree on the local don't in order to be equipped for future challenges and to produce higher units on the quote in the fields. more and more farmers in cameroon, once who participates in the virtual training courses from peanut butter to

frozen pizza. one product, that's in almost everything is palm oil. it has a great shelf life and can with them being seated. but it's also very controversial for assessing. come down with the full palm or plantation which threatens animal species and the air we breathe. now that doesn't sound very equal, friendly does it. but palm roy actually requires much less the forest of area been raped seed also it, it just needs to be sustainable. how can we check with a new app from indonesia? for example, indonesia is by far the largest palm or producer in the world. more than 60000000 people here work as pharmacy. oil mill operates of trade, us and the food industry. it's a long supply chain, and for true sustainability, every step needs to be events. it's monthly pulled up from switzerland's co founded quote to you bought 2 of us since he always knew, well, that's the concept field. the software for the farm, the saw fit for the trade it,

it has to be a holistic end to end system. so it'd be delivered a platform which helps our create inputs supply us farmers. and to all take is the most up to the brands. verifying the data is key. to date coach eva has registered more than a 120000 small hold up. com website stations in indonesia alone. and each farmer has been interviewed by quote to you of us though. so we have verification that the farm is not in protective flores, not involved in deforestation over the past 10 years, and that they do not exploit children. 10 said life at all today, coach eva has become a global company with 800 employees. its mission is to enable and ensure traceability at every stage of production, processing and sales. as more and more companies are looking to making the supply

chain small and transparent. often the context starts with a multinational company, a brand coming to us. ok, please help us to my powers for flight change. that's a concept based tech company diversified. it's portfolio. these days it doesn't just cover palm or supply chains, but also the more than 1000000 producers of over 50 different raw materials from across the globe. with also signed up. there are many apps for capital breed us. farmers can use these to access data on the livestock on their smartphones. did you call also has a chipped function, where they can check directly with veterinary ins to connect people also and let and america where in f helps farmers sell their products by connecting them directly with customers. so they can all to produce straight from the farmers. many

farms in columbia are located in remote areas, so transporting produce can be difficult, and small farmers don't have as many options for selling the crops, which makes it harder to own a fair and stable income. you regarding the incoming load almost once we change this with the platform, see and buckle. when we saw on the predictive values and challenges, that is more of this game farmers phase it. we started to develop a solution and dig around solution for the farmers. and i mean, i mean, we think about near sort of planting in which we can make farmers and customers before planting. customers can all the produce directly from the pharmacy and can now also choose how many plans should be grown for them. the crops can be delivered to them, but they can also be sold or donated. but the start up isn't stopping as being a direct market. so 2600 small scale farming families live in columbia. and what

tamala, the cool would like to see them profit from information and insights available on the platform. we use a i in different areas. and then what's important, not logistic, we use a platform that use a yeah it to do or the deliveries in the various way. and we also use a i to give support to our farmers. i mean, we process the typically 3 months. so a platform and as our technical support can div information to the farmers, more dates so it can hopefully lead to bits of trucks these days see him, but i cool also deliver those to restaurant chains and companies. the aim is to make the small kids more assessable to small scale from us to now is the moment thing to mean technology and really closer. because we need to ring go pertaining this to the feeder to martin. great new generation working in

the cups. 6 it's impressive how many supporters available for farmers these days? in the end there is no plan as be right. so we have to find ways to grow foods and protect our planets by changing our diets, at least a little and supporting these funding projects. each one of us can contribute to a healthy, a well sustainable future. that's all for me. things and see you next time, the hello and welcome back to the 77 percent. this week we are in like julia and the question is, how are the governments made is decisions affecting people. we've looked into the

shop prices of everything skyrocketed. when an economy is in a bad state, like the one i dress in, it will need to take some hard partnerships. i own the found out part, but then how do we get those money from nigeria, the 77 percent? 30 minutes. the w thinking as a network thing, as one show about vision raised and bad project, the percentages that can be tackled together for a future worth living. working for a more united world. in 90 minutes on d w. the is

increasing at reason many of watching online. so supposed to work. there is holiday destination drowning in plastic white at the cost every year of exports over $1000000.00 tons of plastic. why is there another way officer ruled the environment is not responsible make up your own mind. dw made for mines, dw, so one take, so we in fact, every day, the world caution. i used to work for free because we can take the different w call, the world unpack,

pulse out your info is and all the input your w story. now on to the this is data, the news and these are top stories. 6 people are still missing in baltimore following a major bridge collapse after it was struck by container ship. the ship reported we lost power before the collision. prison joe biden has promised federal money to rebuild the bridge. and for the port of baltimore, which remains blocked by the wreckage on the european union has agreed to soften environmental regulations on farmers following major protests across the block in brussels farmers dumping the newer and lit he builds on fire on tuesday to protest against strict environmental protection rules at least 2 police.
