8:42 am
know you do you. expect. when they claim you. know. what they're doing and see if. you are legal or. illegal you. know lewis to work out what's starting with making better use of his 2 acres. then you can design an app to help you. be a little tough to the sun and i don't think when jani. and up and began nailing. enough rice a bubble to double up the telephone of the saudi. inventor living on the some balcony
8:43 am
or to like you know no sex was decent he says that come assemble a to be defined in need be did he him to be defined be any be defined see says i can maintain an idea let me call this is. an image bunda. who. are not a double minded man because. so keep that to someone who. even says internet said ok somehow become a pilot and making a scene from you seem. to not. be. now you maggie says and i totally named reagan and i said saved your life i'm going to make. it he said when i thought when i was acquired all that all of them one of them. william suffers from the same problems a small scale farmers globally he has no modern water pumps he can't afford
8:44 am
fertilizers and without proper transport you can only still crops locally so williams joined a farmers group to try and pull knowledge and resources to kink human embryo. thing and as i'm in there. again and again. going to a trip to india. with me with him in. the debate to assess it and then said and then go to them of what he said what when he said. well it will go nice and i said forget the so-called science and you're to tango yet when it comes right down to living. in it that the fact that william is already in a group and it's barely 2 months old it's a starting point because it's already brought people together so even if you do all of you know solution to that he's already a platform and you can use them one of the test groups or
8:45 am
a focus group and also start from hearing problems from other phones as well because now we've had to both really and maybe another families facing a slightly different problem. city boy will use about to taste some kenyan country cooking with william special he's indigenous kenyan vegetables. like to collect lead to thank the food before we take it to the sex case. he made on into a question that also. has a mind it's a cuisine but. you know you. don't want to have you know you'll. go over you'll. pick.
8:46 am
your you. next and when use research trip is a visit to you getting a town center he's going to meet william's group of local farmers. who wants to know if other farmers have the same problems as william. and how we can design a mobile phone app to help. find their meaning. because we. combine our lazy mice and doesn't give me. no never mind you think you know this is going to turn to can build a light laser turn your magic gun that. is really fired you may laugh we do come edition systems. you know. when i say my fault to find a key to tell me is that i did 2 parties in big to find the
8:47 am
p.d. the meeting was done after listening to india and his problems all the challenges he faces and is doing is harming them not unique to him other guys in the community also facing more or less the same problems. when you want to research how much the crops william grows could fix so he has to one of the largest markets in the area. it's only 40 kilometers from williams home but he's never even been here. every turn journey using public transport would cost him $5.00 almost a week's income. so it's william's 1st chance to find out how much the indigenous
8:48 am
vegetables he grows could sell for in the big local markets. you know nothing more american. and. the truth should be. there. in the south suburbs sounds a little bit to get back to the question of the tunnel. in manderson's up our city need something to. sell some good to her said. that is as old as the bananas on the floor before winds up on the top she done as a whirlpool $82.00 more than whom no fuckin mckeithen. menow no you didn't know when to say much about jonah king city and you know when your dad william william william the william wanted william billy wilkie santa to pick up someone analytical mckee. pulling resources with
8:49 am
a group could mean lower costs and higher returns for their produce. more you realize this is how a mobile phone app could help looking up from the fall mas to the weeks now and then what the market for this is a lot of ideas to explore within the same area was all the problems become visible from a group level as a group you want to what source you support you see how much of this particular item before you see that name of intelligence reporting it as it will be able to sell these produce and also to what you need to be and how much to be. you know you you you know you will you. know you'll you'll leave you know you. it's a quick goodbye to william as more news of back to nairobi. his challenge is to design an app that can help william make a better life from farming. it is
8:50 am
a sad story unfortunately. and was seized food prices it might all be ridiculously high and these guys can sell their produce out i mean for instance you give me an example here into the market we fail untreated ceilings of all farm produce he only sold a 100 killings so the rest will end up protein and becoming compost. it's time for more new to brief his team mates off almost immediately and here is the future lenses that he's facing as an indigenous crop of the i always thought it sounds of meeting the group that he belongs to these farmers need from. push
8:51 am
information so we're looking at her technology. come in and breach these got up under so support them to get to the next level so movie these these information about. blunting seize on the movie to date and then the they have how much the i mean from the farm for most of the national planning all the information we need to bridge that gap because the team decides to go with a simple text based app. i didn't lose the chance. to use you you can school beat on us markets is developed technology you develop solutions for technology people use one team for mission to move from the farm to the market and from the market to the farm and the only way you can do these groups is it to be a law that. seems way but they're almost ready to go back to william with the idea for an app back. to say you didn't
8:52 am
use it but please let me come home but i need to get my mind mind you but. this. is. the prototype of their life app is ready to show william in person. and we'll. talk with. anyone. on the road back to william and this time we'll use joined by geoffrey one of the best trainers. this software city boys are about to be reminded why out here communication is

8:55 am
then they can agree on prices and share transport costs. nikky to kids who dissent and need. most of interaction with the system will get through this a mess of us with a farm as a missing the system of the system getting the data back to the farm it can be tailored to be anything the farm on sea to be for instance if the group owns a farm implement like a palm. even from all it's to use the pump the request for the pump way. to come up with a group to simon says i watch it. all many make up and i keep. really cool. because. the app would allow williams friends to collect and distributes the information
8:56 am
they need to work together see where the building may be operate. like you are not all be fine neat and yeah yeah. well why not because they said they like their product. they see their body neat so i think it went pretty well you should have seen the smiles on faces. the smile on the of a hand is what gives you the belief. that. this has been. you can call it mind blowing all out experience something you really did and it's all an experience you know you'll never knew it to come a 9 minute price and about one meter back to your mom. but you
