tonnes series called the matter of time at the guggenheim museum in being vile saras outdoor installations also include the steel slabs in the desert encounter. one writer described the artist as the poets of iron. alright, you are up to date. stay tuned for talk film after 8 short break. take your the innovation green, the green revolution global. so listen to a whole lot of crime. it's probably up to speed if the carriers subscribe to those channels to subscribe to plan, it's a the

bob and are started cultivating duty at the age of 12 in those days, due to was an important crop here of the this is what i've done it. the thing jude cultivation became less important. rice was the priority and the focus shifted from ju, just the plastic. as i said, the there to do that could be about to change a size. and are you a cons? cultivate or fibers that could make the world a better place. or you've has believed in this possibility ever since his doctor

told him that jude could be turned into material. that feels him to be hayes like plastic. but it's environmentally friendly. easy to add to get on the sooner the back. it is invented out by on, by love a see scientist. uh it is a bio di, good to buy a plastic. the r u n. his uncle, a fast farm, the natural fibre, according to a century. so tradition, cuz this painstaking process provide the fiber of the future, the northern bangladesh book or district 6 o'clock in the morning. an early start to avoid the summer heat. yesterday temperatures reached 45 degrees celsius a fast, so this due to in march. now it's harvest time,

actually one of our jobs within has it. at the end of the been galle month of to a true. we so the see that a 2 or 4 months later in the month of chart we harvest that how much had, can't we then plant other crops on the same soil, such as over genes or potato? what as they will know, horrible high on the one hand, they're going to go to of the 5400 is equity, double who use dried, jude sticks for many purposes. they bring in the most money. we use them as climbing aids and vegetable seasons vase more for the walls of houses today. however, this is becoming obsolete as bricks are used instead of jute, bangladesh as a small country, but it's farmers count among the world's largest dude. producers.

foss lives in the village of his lee he is one of the wealthier people in the village. his annual income, he says, is the equivalent of 5000 euros. the a thoughts has 4 sons. at best buy after one is also a farmer and other one is a driver. one is living in malaysia as a migrant worker, and the other is an engineer. i am 75 years old working life will help you. hi.

when i 1st was young, the slogan used to to now plastic handmade and bangladesh was popular in parts of europe. but of false says he's never heard of it. the in the 1980s, the tooth back from bangladesh became a symbol. that's the environmental movement. back then it was known as a scratch you resilient natural material. used to to not plastic was a rallying cry. now the fight against plastic is more urgent than ever. in the village of his lease scrap metal and plastic are collected for recycling. the people are paid and edible, not due to eventually replaced plastic. who are the people who cultivate the plants? now what role does dude play for them?

who have overall, jude cultivation has advantages. we hardly earned anything from rice this year, but we still grow rice for our own consumption, and we see the rice straw to the cadillac. c c the, the price farmers receive for to it's up to it's considerably some years proceeds from sales fail to cover production costs. the government is trying to counteract this economic issue. a problem. you just take

a partnership would be on the market. price is high right now. and i'm farmers are interested again, and we want to support them of 5 inches square. we is. these are located in the current season. our department has provided them with seed and fertilize are free of charge and no h was this creates incentive. the farmers have to invest less from others and can make a bigger profit. it kept the number of cds of these tests. what are some of the lot of issues i'm to leave. my name is julie. i'm working as an assistant officer at the department of agriculture extension. i've got totally vocal row. isn't that isn't the data. okay. yeah, that definitely the fiber feels thick and strong. it will be a good you. the funny part is that we're going to resist

the, the harvested to stocks are left to lie in the field for 3 days until all the leaves have fallen off. what follows is the unpleasant part. the green starks must rot. the you must, do you watch or attract insects and bacteria that are good for the jute and help the for mentation of the plant. but it's bad for human skin and causes. pitching, says a 5 today, it is bearable and says

a fast he's used to it anyway. other challenges are more daunting. not move on the box, that's going number one. in fact that all could you repeat it? one of the i like round you, especially the dude sticks, they sell very well and don't require much work. i know, but when it's too dry, we have a problem running the green due to sticks in the past, it was easier. we used to do it everywhere in water holes and rivers. there is a river nearby, but now it doesn't have enough water. so now we use puns that are normally used for fish farming. i have a pond close to i. ups, pond. climate change is making everything harder. extreme weather conditions are disrupting ecosystems throughout south asia says totally and dude,

farmers feel the effects for us tend lots us, it, i'm on the see the money to blush much. this is the my ancestors already knew that we have a very low me soil here. just kind of follow my motor home. it only needs a little reading to retain moisture, mazda, of all the parking lot of on sunday. so i'm going to the jew client would not survive more than 10 days without rain. world is in for bar s market. that type of soil is we're here. so let's go higher and this is about the year. it range fairly reliably, every $15.00 to $30.00 days and summer would develop. so our judgment is not damaged. the models of it will not the unlimited cool. unlike cotton or rice, which need constant water do does not require artificial irrigation. i

saw says that he'd never heard of it by a degradable plastic like material made from to it until i you've stopped or told him about it. he uses a conventional plastic sheet to protect his plants. the it is that the one that i did not hold on, i put the plastic sheet on top to prevent the mud from getting in and sticking to the fibers. depending on the quality of the fibers,

the jude has to soak and water for 12 to 15. days so that it starts to run. if the plan was already very ripe, when it was harvested, i can take it out again after just 8 to 10 days, but i saw not going of the in a huge pond right next door. the dude sticks are almost ready. okay, that was the they, they asked it over at the overtime. the fibers can be removed from the stand by applying light pressure. but this one isn't ready yet. i still have to press too hard that that will clear. no. it's not think about the kind of set function that i think it will take another 4 or 5 days

in his li, are you, but is known as the module farmers. he grows everything from oranges to toot and his family makes him proud. his daughter tia hopes to go to university in my country, people things, pardon me, use the a, made a team not to be moved to do this. and i want to start a study that how i live in and abroad. come to the, the outside of the country, a t o would not want to become a jude farmer even if she could do so. now the do try me is not, not they have these people, so it'd be far, much those kinds of reduce. because the dial me is by monday, june me is, are all so data onto the dale dante, any buyers to buy san diego,

do so many people's have to leave the guards with juice. and it is, the chart is all scan it is they want us to do, so i'll watch to well i separated the fibers. those charges of plan is people out of the go use and yes, grandsons to building the building. the house. yeah. so construction moves, factories, do used to be very important for bangladesh says that to yeah, pulling out an old bank note a bit because the symbols, the symbols of pharma, our god, is the farmer of separate fiber from the jews and the 5 corey. they have separate the 2, and it is our national growth, so you know, so then not has the same symbolize this t. so i beat for you the do this type

a color that is the that these wash from the borrower that, that is golden color, golden show, showing on the asked to evaluate college. so natalie asked that is golden try that? and it is. so it is a, it is only national across because each so we exports the other countries and we get dollars to that kind and see the until the middle of the 20th century. jude was the world's most important tech style fiber after cotton. to this day, most of the worlds do production still comes from this region. the louisville soil. ready a climate that is humid and hot. 6 6 2 jude has been harvested in process

tier for centuries. the british colonial rulers took the 2 prone here and sold it all over the world. the highest quality fibers have a golden color. these are set to grow best near rivers. that's why many dude farmers lift by rivers or in the middle of rivers, an island called chars. the char bye to allies in the middle of the jump moon river, which originates in the himalayas as the from a put try river the . i'm you notice it's a jude farmer here. the

lie. hey brother. did you also plant the season? no, no, not this year. i'm. i don't, i love life on the island. we buy them, but i live on the mainland because of the developers and coons every day. i come back here in the morning in the lead in the evening. i loved the nature here, however, the air was fresh and comic looked. however, there's so much to do on the island, so many opportunities on the mainland. i have new land and nothing to working with a river pirates. that's what i mean. recalls the people who attacked and seriously injured his brother. i got he shows

us the scars from the knife glance. he tells us that the pirates stole his cow is it is all over the crime is not the only thing that makes life hard on the chars. legally i've tried several of our struggles. as far as the outside of my c id must be able to do better been logged in. the rainy season that floods over twice. i go as i so we move the coast to the mainland on. oops, while very well. but for him to run this in 2 or 3 days, everything here is under water. wish i had the this was all over. it was then we came up to the tin roof of the house that i'm, i'm lia wooden planks don't. let's have to. so if you, we just and live up there thing get, we're going to shoot a packet. let's all over the booked. i'd be actually, if he seems to be volume or the date to get him is take it back. he says, coordinating them i mean, nor shows how high the watch are reached in recent years long i was,

i'm charged even disappeared completely for a time. $200.00 people live on this river island without electricity or solid ground under their feet. their times are resilient to they can withstand flooding for a good 2 weeks, but even the robust do times have their limits for the good. the reason why they're hard to believe, i believe i found that you back to their what is totally ruins you by the flow. if i grew up with the department of the but couldn't because of the extreme flooding, we couldn't harvest quickly in any way. and they died up. those in the flood lasted for almost 3 weeks. i completed the front of me by the leaves in there by the

department. but everything was right about the put that there are new fiber of the by me as if i knew i should do the uh, the shop the shop though and the water comes on the plan trimmings under water for too long. oh yeah, it turns black around. no, i then ogden is no good to go more. i got to think of the problem is that gives you though, that the list of only the golden, shimmering fibers are really worth it. and a thing say about them, like, i don't know a box cuz i've lived here though, even if the plants are only half submerged with walter, how software the fibers that come out of low quality. that'd be all right, but we get a lower price on the market because they are just colored or even black or not as of technology about the numbers you i to prevent this dude. farmers on the chars have devised a system that i mean who is proud of leaving the island is not an option and

they have nothing on the mainland. the river is both a curse and a blessing for the 2 plants. to watch your noise just then with the minerals, but threatens them with much. no good, by the way i live on the river. walter is murphy. the stream carries on most of the soil and clean the substances stick to the jude fibers degreed in quality, and causing the juice to black and good. however, if the river washers channelled into a pond or a canal with the water is clear and fresh, i know the cute trimmings on damaged platinum retains its golden color. so they have created artificial canals and water holes. the if i didn't know the, they got to in the bottle. this is walter that comes from the river by the all the

impurities in the mouth of central to the bottom of the water hole with the bundle . but it got more, lots of water is clear, and that's how you can still get the golden color to the base as a 5 block talked about. otherwise, there's no chance of getting good quality fibers. i low yet another problem is impacting the by to river island. to low pressure the if there's too much plastic around, then harms the crumbs. so we gather it and burn it. that solves the problems. are plastic, the 2? no, people want to use less plastic bag, but i just have because we have already in the past batch are made of june most now we're going back to jude shopping back sacks, etc. people are fed up with plastic. that tough. one of the,

of the 200 kilometers downstream. there are people who want to solve the plastic problem with the house of 2 in the capital deca scientists are working on the show nally back project translating as the golden back. it looks and feels like a plastic bag, but it's made from cellulose, derived from cute. the invention of bangladesh, the scientists dr. mubarek met con, protective suits and mass have also been produced using this new bio plastic. the

main raw material is dried dude fibers. then we find the setters because the main ingredient of this one going to be a set of rules that we made to send loose from the x from thing the reaction. we have to set the set up the temperature ratio and time for the poor to action, and then we own this type. so some of these are the exact formula. it's a secret and says doctor con. additionally, bag has suffered some setbacks. it was just about to go into mass production when the co dependent make it. the sewing bags from this to polymer is also still a problem. the producers don't have access to the right machines using dude for

fiber. reinforced compass that's has already been proven to work. dr. con has been experimenting with the material for years. his duty reinforced polymer mixture also has a name to to do things is accomplish it. met you, so that is a good for the bottom of this now. and the trends and gentleman in as, as early as in susan and also data making, some boss with the flex fiber inputs, accomplish it to the appropriate feel of flux is better than to convince some extent. but at flux, the production of flexibility, limited in some countries, and the price is 2 times so important, higher than that of june. sometimes it's, i just have a good quality plus the sum of 10 times higher than the 2. so in that case, duties the partridge and candidate for making the con project

the i have to do every center says the mine the destination. what then i want to go there. that is the distribution. so lastly, i want to see why i'm using 124, because juke is really incredible because it's pointing 70 percent centrals. you cannot find n t or across in all of the water. we score in 70 to respond that are some plans, but it's not plenty. it's not comfortable that anybody like to is susan of corruption bundle with dish. so it is the hardest thing time use $110.00 days on the other. one creek on kentucky person. the settings on their bodies.

lucky dexterity to good people, didn't yes, commit to the this is the last the policy so he can see the federal de barney this are a little bit. it's a just like, you know, victor here. this is the can proceed. and me did through a battery cable. this is vanessa product, this, this is as it sounds like the perfect fiber.

so why hasn't the environmentally friendly juke revolution happened by now? and what does the government, which commission this finality bad experiment make of this? we ask for a habit of who would come at the ministry of tex, 1000 jude, this absolutely noble idea, and the mobile counties working on that you already know any already talked to him . but the, the, somebody should actually, uh, the need to be addressed before waiting for the most production kind of, uh, uh, the costing things the other cool thing of course, the whole list actually cost that is one issue. um, because people know, get actually plastic bags or anything because been stupid, almost

a low cost. so you got that is one issue actually there is a stick completion with the this plus people for the convicts go into some pretty good product. but the plastic comedy is very, very strong. keep on pipe dealers dollars business every year for the single us shopping back. so they are not easily allow you to enter the market plastics. an industry that is blocking jude farmers expansion and increasingly jeopardizing their very existence the weekly meeting of the toot farmers of history. 2 of the sizes brothers are also here state. what they tell us that plastic causes a lot of damage to their crops might have done,

but i don't think they've got a or this plastic is very harmful though. when it burns, like sticky, dangerous residues remain in the soil. due to on the other hand decomposes easily and it fertilizes the soil, plastic takes years to decompose. and when we planned rice, it no longer rows. well, if the soil is pointing to a 100, because the high log enough, they would be glad to grow more to and does produce more natural fibers. but conditions have to improve. many people including i ups, uncle hide, are, are unhappy this quote for you can give a memo to the fact that that's what we want. we also think about it all the time. jude is really profitable, but we simply don't have any more water holes where we can leave the stocks to rocks. and i mean, it's a real crisis. i got them kind of table tight. there are so many things we could do that i knew what i'm next hardwood they might have,

but i bet i'm going to go as i did. i did it as a whole in love. but i need to do that. we're still going to, we used to have more of them, but then, you know, they were leased by the government to people who are farming fish in the country funding. she kind of mazda of near and also low to plan on well charge you therapy . so we're going to take a short of $200.00, must cut out wherever there is water upon the dishes canals. it is, it was a lot to know. they are all use for fish farm and ready to go to is i got the, the, our hands are tied on while you're doing that is that it must natasha who didn't make to go through. that's why they have created their own artificial parents. these experienced farmers make the hard work look easy, having rubbed, mineral oil on his body before getting into the sinking water to relieve the itching i loosened institute fibers by hitting the stems

the roof. and this is how you waiting to talk. the clock does will still go to hulu. it will not a big deal. in addition, i don't like it. i'm also with the cultivation process is tyra shoot, has many benefit. when it is young, we can each other the phone. once we get strapped to the fibers, we make the money from it. they will lose it, right? it sticks us fire we have done with agility, 0 who has makes up for the hard labor cost through allowance,

even though juice cultivation is painful in a fight, it brings us lots of benefits of black. i'm a bit of what kind of going to win to is still very young. it's leaves are used in cooking and are very healthy. are you? ps, wife alo says, so now she would talk so these are green vegetables are full of vitamins healthy. i mean, i just gently, as ensure that we build up our immune system in the, the the

the think if i be like the 1 am i gonna love? hello. well, no, no punch on the vehicle. it's a high pass that dips photos, jute has changed our luck since it's currently being sold. it's a good market price. i see the breakdown and cost less to produce compared with other products for this evil market. and how do we can recover the production expenses by selling the dried stock? so look at one box with the next to to be sure that the gospel if i brought you to the field. so because i can earn 2 and a half times more than what i would earn with rice is for going to do nama the co author. that's why you cultivation is a profitable crop for us. farmers on it the the,

it takes 3 days for the 2 bundles to dry in the sun. are you buying a fast then sell them to wholesalers who picked them up directly in his late the to sell there to too many farmers travel to the small town i've shown that toilet. it's one of the largest due to markets in the region. the highest price for a killer to today is a t tucker. they say that's about 3 quarters of a dollar. 6677, count slowly. wholesalers buy to then deliver it to the mills or a boss. what about the, hey,

we have to make 5 kilo's less. there are 3 categories of june. first, the 2nd and 3rd rate quality, that determines the price i pay. i buy a good quality june at a high price video . and the model of the lease is medium quality by giving me the good one. and then low, good. bad is low quality. a high quality here. first class, the best a defense type. everything is okay in the night over vertically, clean soft, smooth, vertically at other than these thinking. this one is rough, very different. it's from the floods. well no, i don't know if i knew that when i say well, no, so that's out of the medical ways. wholesalers often

store that you'd in warehouse. it's in order to increase demand from the mills and does drive up the price. in recent years, the government has closed down several jude mounts, which were said to be unprofitable. tens of thousands were left unemployed. there are plans to modernize the industry according to the ministry, to the privately owned house on ali, to smell and folklore, of sources do from all over the country and produces it in 3 ships. 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. the, the conditions are bad. the temperatures colors

the from the fibers present to the body, the exports go to india. the neighboring country is the world's largest producer of 2, but they still need imports to supplement their own harvest. products include 2nd delica type cells and sometimes called the

natural tooth fabrics may not be very soft, but they are durable and highly freezer for production manager mohammed drum. and tells us that the material was already being used in the 18th century in germany. and the region of present day has been one of the many pick a would put the well, no, actually the so called hash and goes back to germany. square soldiers uniforms used to be made of jude out of money to say this was then adopted by the british army, or we will shut the issue that there. and they then called a fabric ocean. how can you see that the money hit cnn?

push out late. i've tried to with the over 800 companies in bangladesh, now manufactured to products, and that number is growing. the more awareness of due to environmental sustainability could be created worldwide. global interests would really help say the history of farmers separately.

that's our germany is one of the pioneers in the industrial revolution before getting off, if they were to import truth from our country. consigned deals with a governmental to go to the water, we could produce more of the golden fibre and supply it. and i mean, even though she forgot to comment on spirals, to harvest more and it back to and a lot of farmers would come forward, cultivate much use and try to get us updated access to people on the go to the water out loud. so we do the main challenge, i think is the price fluctuation. there is no certainty if the government put a system in place to guarantee that it would by the to, to not as it already does with rice have to do. then i think this would mitigate the risk of being charged for the conduct of it did. they did show government that can get the back of it. the only issue saelens ticket this device will use to, to not plastic, make a come back. the history farmers hope so, so but it's up to others to make it happen. until then,

a fast will continue farming as best he can today he finds himself at the market in the evening. and i look forward to meeting you on when i get a good harvest and earn a good amount of money. i buy suites for the children at home. i say to myself, eat more, don't think about money today. we're not pushing away with the harvest that brings in the most money makes me the happiest, whatever. when i sell my harvest at the market, i forget all the hard work. it motivates me to keep working. and then i'm even happy. i don't work or model the. the

climate change is threatening our food supply. $1089.00 and algorithms safeguard harvest is land grown and food for the climate. pardon me? tomorrow's coffee chase lane. and kent drones help save forest searching for a new approach to agriculture. can i check out the made in germany? in 1st few minutes? i'm d. w. into the conflicts own with him,

sebastian here at the munich security conference i sent to you in security. i'm confident of providing the politicians on that side of the world reached a dangerous inflection point. my guess is we have the 2nd live experience of the highest significant levels in the us 90 below 0. in 90 minutes on dw the if you speak to some language and culture, some country, how do we become different? how is discrete logics? why don't we do people in just a 100 days? my parents because of my family, what killed the i'm on

a journey to find out about the roots of the 19 are to put you on the side of things for to see the my name is some way to ship. i'm assuming reshay history. our documentary stops april 6th on dw, the . this is dw, using these are our top stories. divers have recovered the bodies of 2 workers missing after the baltimore bridge collapse in the us. official said the remains of 2 missing man were recovered from a vehicle on the river floor. another 4 men remained missing. the ship, reportedly lost power before the collision. the un special rep or tour on the occupied palestinian territory says there is reasonable grounds to believe israel is committing genocide.
