countries on supermarkets dumping food that's past its best before date in many places it now has to be given to those in need and then there's urban gardening which means far shorter journeys from fields to plate. chicken production however still has a long way to go. chickens have become a mass project estimates suggest that there are now more than 22000000000 of the birds on the planet. over $95000000.00 tons of chicken mates were produced last year. it's often frozen. then shipped around the world. in 2018 brazil the u.s. and the e.u. tougher to the list of exporters europe is africa's main supplier in 2000 said.
1:32 pm
the e.u. sold 135000 tons of frozen chicken parts to ghana. subsidies mean it's cheaper than she can raise domestically and local farmers are paying the price. i'm here to get me to. this is where most of it arrives in the capital. as europeans prefer the breast of the chicken the leftovers end up here shipped in refrigerated containers halfway around the world. on our way from the. stores that sell it they tell us they only

1:35 pm
if it gets a look at this one for some even an. interesting . mind. the next day it's off to the market we'd like to know if there's a difference in quality between mass produced chicken from abroad and the local variety. it tastes good and is being fit and hard order nutrition is in it. for a while. and see. things it's also thought to when you think that's going to. i really like. all my make because. it's all money. focused and says the only

1:42 pm
a much she's more of our husbands. in the moment if they said no we shouldn't do it but it was a waste of time. but also just a couple but little by little we prove that our value as women goes beyond being mothers. we can do all kinds of things including tending the land and feeding our families yet we can contribute economically little bit but i mean i grew up our staff regularly visit and bring advice on how to run their ventures when does the us yeah there's always more to learn about farming methods and increasing the yields. given you know what a lovely garden. group r. is committed to organic farming with chemical fertilizers the women of ya know gandhi rose so much produce now they have some to sell the project thought that is the implement this by promoting organic farming the project has also helped create
1:43 pm
skills especially among women that allow them to make a living through agriculture. the urban farmers can sell their crops at special organic produce markets b.-o. farriers something that when we started we didn't even know how to do the bookkeeping when it was this rough. but now we know more we're learning to grow as individuals and above all we're partners in the community. urban gardening projects around the world book to our group are as a model the pioneering organization is continuing to expand in quito. the area devoted to urban farming here in p 2 is growing about 3 hectares or about $200.00 different plots each year. for the refugees from venezuela urban farming might prove the 1st step to a new life.
1:44 pm
and into the trash with it worldwide around $1300000000.00 tons of food is wasted every year much of it ends up in landfills some goes bad on fields where it's not properly refrigerated in storage containers or on the race which a lot of what gets dumped is actually perfectly edible europeans alone throw away around $115.00 kilos of food per person per year that shocking considering $821000000.00 people worldwide suffered from chronic on the night richmond in 2018 some of them in your. once a week stanislav opens up his garage for the needy he distributes groceries mostly to pensioners and single mothers today he has pizzas that have almost reached their sell by date supermarkets are no longer allowed to throw these products away they
1:45 pm
are legally obligated to give them to charity organizations. to frank of us happy she can now invite her grandchildren to dinner. i have a very small monthly pension like $150.00 euros and if you have to buy coal and pay for electricity it can get pretty bad. drops by stanislav school raj every week she's only 30 but is unable to work due to heart problems she's eligible for a mere 160 euros of government support not enough to get by on stanislav gives her 3 pizzas and some beverages which will keep the family going for about 5 days. this is do you know. at 1st i was ashamed to come here because a stranger was just passing out food and i'd never done anything like that asking a stranger for food even though i know he helps other people to me he explained to
1:46 pm
me how it works that i should come every thursday at a certain time so that's what i do now automatically did you would you know. still . a. young kid me picks up food from supermarkets in and around prague every day. the law requires stores to give him goods that are about to expire. and that's a good thing says the employee at the prague food bank. that's terrible when you see how many people have nothing to eat or wheat and then all these things end up in the garbage in the supermarket it's just terrible. and you yogurt fruit and chocolate are stacked in boxes in the prague food bank the charity distributes 10 tons of food daily 222000 needy people in and around the czech capital almost nothing is thrown away here the food is picked up directly or distributed to homeless shelters and soup kitchens. mama nadi could be to put that i mean the law
1:47 pm
now allows us to have much more bailable and a much broader range we now have a lot more perishable including fruit and vegetables. supermarkets think the law is wrong they've already cooperated with aid organizations in the past the guidelines merely increase the bureaucracy they say. bend. the rules a pretty strict sometimes we have to look very closely at which fruit we're still allowed to deliver and which ones we're required to throw away and the charities have to prove that the fresh produce is passed on quickly. but it wasn't the supermarkets who took the issue to the constitutional court senior politicians argued that it reminded them of. as i'm and that other potential beneficiaries will losing out. our complaint was about the state press scribing who the chains have to give the food to. some shops for example used to get the product
1:48 pm
. but they're no longer allowed to do so despite the quantities available being enough for everyone. is the most gentle it's not enough says stanislav saturday due to high food prices even regular pensioners are dependent on his help in his opinion the state is reluctant to help those in need but. the problem is that there aren't many people like me who say to themselves well i have my pension so i don't need to earn money and so i can help on a volunteer basis i don't earn anything when i do this when i go with. stanislav would now like a refrigerator in his garage so that he can legally store and distribute even more but the czech republic is by no means a paradise for the needy. and now to north africa and in almost forgotten conflict since 1973 the polish sario
