and good for us all and let's do business things took a turn for the worse for south african airways on friday director martin kingston resigned the company entered a form of bankruptcy protection last month with the government promising a cash injection the treasury is yet to release the 2000000000 rands around 130000000 euros without state support private lenders will be unwilling to help out in the attempt to sell 9 planes reported this week won't raise enough cash either over $10000.00 jobs are at risk if the airline goes bust. basic used to live and work in south africa is now here in berlin with me. what went wrong. it's incredible and also really disappointing and shocking because come to think about it i mean it used to be really africa's number one airline until 2015 when it was overtaken by european airlines and from

a customer's point of view it still is in a way it's a reliable ally but what we didn't know all along is that it's been stacking up to . $3900000000.00 u.s. dollars of debt that it's been sticking out and as a matter of fact it hasn't made any profit since 2011 so that's looking bad and it's received bailout after bailout 1400000000 u.s. dollars all together what's behind it mismanagement corruption and it's not the only state company that's in the reds it's also eskom the power company is also really not looking good is there any way of saving south african this time. well the rescue prick to soon as they say they remain hopeful. and they say that is reasonable thought that there's a good chance that they'll save it and they want it is coming along. i mean they need to sell those 9 x. and they're really old nobody will be really interested they're about to be

grounded actually and then they can sell parts of maybe that's a chance but yeah they really need the money that the government has been promising this sounds worse than a garage sale i mean it sounds. it is almost yeah and it's still i mean it's hard to believe and it's hard to imagine that the number one airline of africa is probably going to go into the quotation. thank you very much for coming in. well you kind of urban farming is popping up in guyana cities have taken over. which young farmers are claiming back in a way by filling sacks with soil. priscilla adam is inspecting her small backyard farm and she's become passionate about growing a wide variety of organic crops insides like many urbanites she has no access to farmland. here you can find kosov or vegetables and sugarcane all priscilla needs is

a sack and some fertile soil. being very phenomenal yeah i just think that. i just know that it's very right it's coming very beautifully you know let's you it's like nothing was ever. nothing and this has been a. very wonderful. lives a short distance from priscilla. he and his family have been growing their own food in socks for months. almost benefit that can come out of you know. you can control what you want to eat at all times you know climate change issues have been address issues of sanitation is because. i don't buy you know. pick to some priscilla now teamed up to launch what they call the sack revolution

encouraging others to grow projects and sucks. agriculture is a key component of ghana's economy accounting for approximately 42 percent of g.d.p. and employing 54 percent of the country's workforce. but the to see room for improvement they provide daily tips on site farming to the over 100 members of their soccer of olution messaging group harmony south africa is really going to help solve a lot of the social konami development issues we have in africa and also not to talk about the 5. very big issues here. if. you know what goes what is coming and it's for you it's very satisfying to know that. healthy. peggy dunker was recently introduced to sock farming by victor some purcell or now she and her children are enthusiastic produce growers

cultivating a wide variety of different crops. that. you don't need big space you don't need. the blood soil. pictures some purcell are determined to go far with their initiative they hope to persuade more and more grenade and people from other african nations to start growing food however small the available space. will hunger and malnutrition as some of the greatest challenges facing the planet the population is surging climate change is impacting agriculture crop failures lower yields declining incomes for farmers and the global forum for food and agriculture in berlin over 2000 experts from politics industry and science are trying to tackle those problems the united nations says 800000000 people don't have enough to eat hunger is most prevalent in developing economies in asia and africa and the world bank says $65.00 countries

including egypt saudi arabia south sudan north korea and singapore do not have enough arable land to produce the food they need. to santiago is from ghana and was at the forum he says international trade is key for achieving food security. that's not true it is important as we sell enough rekha because not all countries have the oil resources to produce food to feed deflation so as you can you can see some african countries start under huge climate change issues so droughts and so soft and sort of and a lot of these so de are not able to produce enough food to feed their entire population and if you are not it would to feed the entire population with a food that you produce what do you do you do how does that population get food because the consumer is also important they need to get food they need to get food to eat and nutrition and to be healthy to be able to work no 2 to support the

economy so this is where truth becomes very much important so you need to import you need to import of those not be able doesn't it have to be the right sort of trade i mean the european union floods africa with cheap frozen chicken for example local farmers can't even compete with that even if they do have the land. chickens when will that change for example. i think it's a must in some way because for example they look at you can really be coming from ghana there's this huge debate about the importance of chicken not only from euro but also from the u.s. and from brazil these are the countries that sports and chicken parts or chicken meat to ghana and it's very much important that if you look at a look upward auction in ghana it's it's below what people are demanding so this is the month and the demand is very huge for example if you look at there from the u.n. country i think in 2018 almost 200000 metric tons of chicken was imported

compared to what was produced about 151000 metric tons so you see their god is very huge how can that be changed how can that gap be. be decreased how can we create fair rules for agricultural trade. so for me. it's people are calling for because in the short term if you ban it the producers are not able to produce to meet the demand so what you need to do is to be restored to government. government needs to be invest in process in facilities to invest in farm it so that farmers will be able to to be productive in order to produce to meet the monga so. what needs to be done is most if investments in switzerland for example are going to portray industry. so that maybe in the long term if you consider important one already in tariffs by the time farmers will be

able to produce enough to cover their job which is created by this is the month. we'll have to leave it there collins thank you very much for joining us. the u.s. government safety agency is looking into allegations that tesla's electric vehicles could suddenly excel right of their own accord and identify a petition the national highway traffic safety administration to look into it an agency document outlining the allegations shows 127 complaints from colorado's include crashes and injuries u.s. authorities say the allegations include about one half a 1000000 test the model 3 s. at x. cars sold from 2013 to 2019. weeks of demonstrations in france disrupting one of paris's biggest revenue drivers tourism anyone visiting the capital would one of. its best known painting the mona lisa museum workers have walked off the job leaving visitors out in the rain. in many ways it was
