4:33 am
plans to breed several 1000000 fingerings a year. with the help of a re circulating aquaculture system, it also use a solar technology. the fillings will be given to local fish farmers for free, so they can raise tilapia in ponds. they'll also be given training in sustainable fish farming practices. thea gene kiya hinder, is taking part in the project. he has a number of ponds and hopes that with his new skills he can help him suits security in his region. ah, accordingly at fish, farming is good because fish have become scarce. crisis or on affordable mat increases malnutrition, makia 10 equal the 50. i'm going to build a business lateral and help my family become self sufficient at wishing la jolla wishing her fish farmer. agriculture is one of the bedrock of the rwandan economy,
4:34 am
accounting for about 25 percent of g d p. but extreme weather caused by climate change is taking its toll and affecting food security. lawanda is far from meeting its targets for increasing fear production to feed its growing population. vicki shunned our fish farm hopes to be part of the solution by educating local communities in sustainable agriculture like the one or 2 of our jonathan them over to be successful in fish farming. you need to know how to make the ponds when the how to feed the fish with you and how to protect them until harvest time. good job, you need to be careful in this business almost equal me than are with the woman. another problem in yolanda is that fish are frequently harvested too early and often illegally, thick ashanda project teachers. farmers that harvest times are important to allow fish to mature and to increase production. one local fishing cooperative is already seeing a change for the better past to the project. and we are wondering what i'ma more
4:35 am
before we use the couch, very small version. but since the new breed of fish has been put in this is like there's been a change that are going on local going to there are big fish and our production is increasing more more. no more nuclear and you did send it and our prices are lowered and imported fish local authority was a little more from number to lawanda is not self sufficient in terms of fish supplies and therefore has to resort to imports primarily from china. istic production did see a slight increase last year to around $43000.00 tons of fish. but food security remains a major issue for the country and its 14000000 inhabitants. the sit on the side there. well that i was way worried about the lack of food and i'm from fruit to meat or fish. production is decreasing. i think at the moment i'm selling fish from abroad on the prices are unaffordable for consumers. so that
4:36 am
we need to look for sustainable solutions. so with the government now has plans to boost domestic supply with an ambitious target tripling production by 2024. and cassandra fish farm is integral to those plans. but the idea is to restock the countries over fish lakes with things being raised here on the people who are going in the lakes and do illegal fishing on jeff watching. and alex had the quote, many 10 years they were all the, some of the lakes are over visit unbelief almost in no species in the life. the nice stocks are harvested in thousands of pounds across the country. at the same time, the fish farmers have been advised on how to incorporate local residents and deal with potential pouches. ah,
4:37 am
b a gene kinda is confident about his reach and also enjoying a brighter future. wishing garage in which the gauge shonda farm gives free fish see to people who want to raise them in the villages like this. why i one now latoya on a need to might acquire any i think this will change people's lives and also benefit business. iraq. i need to learn who was of the actual lecture, the premium, the cash and our project was launched in october 2022 and has already made a significant contribution to raising rwanda's domestically produced fish stocks. ah, randa is just one example. countries walking to reduce reliance on imported food stops and boost food security for the populations rights you all sandra, another is gunner, where people are very, discovering the food riches in the backyard. literally,
4:38 am
at the time when prices are going up and supplies going down, grow in your room is blows, i mean, across the country a crowd of women is gathering to get some gardening to growing fresh produce isn't hot. and the benefits are enormous. here in northern gonna alberta, a casa, and her team, a showing local women how best to create a backyard vegetable garden. the small organization started out as a social media project. well, we are all plugged in together and soon gathered momentum. attract in a growing number of female followers. we had seats as our phase. we had some small guiding food. so we thought of advocating, putting on social media, that's if you want to back you had got and just contact us and it was on those. i
4:39 am
don't whether you the word creed was cobra. credible was within a week, 700 volunteers signed up for the one household one garden program. during the pandemic, food prices rose dramatically and many people decided to go back to growing their own vegetable. once the complete training, the women are awarded to read and a pair of rubber boots will be going home to plant tomato audience and pepper. if the vegetable patches flourish will even have enough produce to sell it out, but i hadn't thought what i've learned. you will benefit me a lot because some guy can make some money. what we've been trying to do the channel. it will also help mothers feed their children up to every how this why this could be very good business for me. as only in recent years,
4:40 am
food prices have double even at the local market. the corona virus crisis has caused ongoing supply chain problem, alberta across here to lake agriculture in more feeble sector. she believe that a lot more locally grown produce could be sold at local markets. gonna is a fertile country. that rich in resources is quite the same when i'm talking about, you know, you know, see, be seen any one from got my own from. so like you are looking at transportation costs and all that's going to wait. agriculture in ghana is a struggling success, a growing number of farmers giving up the driving principle behind every household nation is that cultivated vegetables should be profitable. a project also promotes healthy eating. it has the support of local government and although it also raised the coin, shortness of people's awareness and seeking to make the environment clean up by
4:41 am
haven't those guidelines. so it is a concept that for me is least take in terms of getting the right to nutrition, getting the environment clean and more important for tunnel also generating people's interests in the practice in agriculture, about level seeing women learn to take a ride in the achievement is what drives a cluster. today she's just shown over 100 women. how to be more self, sufficient is the job fruits and vegetables that can be harder to find. cooking oil has also been a short supply to we'll know how important cooking oil is in the kitchen. a german university says if bunch of found a new source in one of the words most widely eating and this call the food stuff. bread,
4:42 am
stale bread in germany around 1700000 tons of bait. goods are thrown away each year . some gets fed to animals or turned into bio gas, but much ends up rushing away the dumb. f recliner because iris mall bakery like us, it's about 10 percent less, but at industrial bakeries and supermarkets, roughly 30 percent just gets tossed extra. but baker ludovico jaguar has found a way to recycle his bread. p does it, using the bakery ovens, residual heat. so he doesn't waste energy either. the roasted bread is ben ground. it's now a valuable commodity. just what professor thomas bullock from munich. technical university needs. i brought you fresh supplies, solid and liquid, didn't all thanks is it will use them for donors. it's the season. look what i made for you this. you must have a wonderful i don't i get with me now. this i'm back till next on 5.
4:43 am
at the technical university of munich biochemist, matthews, missouri has developed a method to extract oil from old bread 1st, the ground bread is mixed with an enzyme that transforms the starch into sugar. later special yeast fun guy will be added that feed off the sugar that you sell would be a small at the beginning and it's of i'll ship when it start to eating more sugar. it would be more round and accumulating as something or oil inside some small bodies called limit bodies. we have now oil. then the next step would be to destroy that cell wall and get the oil out. and people have been employing this method for close to a century though they needed toxic solvents to access the oil. then missouri
4:44 am
discovered an enzyme that cuts open the cell wools of the yeast. the enzyme derived from a mushroom, this enzyme is completely non toxic. the goal of his research is to find an eco friendly alternative to palm oil. is in almost every product, every 2 product or the share of the one of them went in on one certain ingredient. and to find as tentative, that's they're not effecting ordered or locked in deforestation more. and that's the main interest of the process. palm oil is both heat resistant and inexpensive. some $77000000.00 tons of it are produced each year. that's what makes hom oil that top selling vegetable oil on the world market. i had a foyer and rapes eat, but palm oil is only cheap in financial times. the cost to people in the environment is high oil palms mainly grow in tropical regions. their launch sweeps
4:45 am
of rain forest are chopped down to accommodate them, contributing to climate change. by contrast, land is not required to produce east oil. all it takes is a fermentation tank, like the ones used to make beer. and it works with things other than old bread. this is a complex of also, we're completely self sufficient. when it comes to raw materials with we can use almost any food waste, including rising casara, sweet potatoes and corn officers called prefer. you can use all of the plant, i'm not just the edible part, so it's one on even the corn stalks out by mice and bizarre model. the solid least oil tastes very mild, so it can be used in almost anything, the bakery way ludovico job one works can meet its need for fats, almost entirely with dale bread. but how could other bakeries benefit from this
4:46 am
discovery? and they were a bigger high twenty's was, i'm a several bakeries couldn't group together to buy a fermentation chain. can you see how much ye, soil they can produce from the left over bread. that way the risk isn't so great. and at some point, everyone might be able to use their old bread to make french fries at home. why not? and i haven't done the performance came back, unveiled in voluminous luda vig shift blind, uses the fresh east oil to make a special easter treat. the recycle, the oil is used in the dough glaze and filling of the chocolate brioche. good. so if you're going to succumb to temptation at least, do it sustainably. for me, that's what i call a very testing a solution. it's not as easy to find sustainable replacements for livestock funding, which provides proteins, but also uses up a lot of resources, such as water and also life. now if they so often been put forward as
4:47 am
a nutritious alternative, we went to a farm in madagascar for you to see how it is then. some people find bugs on the plate on advertising, but these crickets are being bred by the thousands, in by law law farm laboratory and the mother glasgow biodiversity center rich in protein. the insect some meant to play a key role in feeding the country. men up it's, i can think that all day. yeah, now we are expanding on improving our products and we're finding a wasteful plan in this history materials so that we can further increase up production of these will be our contribution on them is still fighting money. tricia in mother garza had dana, i need to find out, i covered my gasket. more and more forest is being cleared to grow food. madagascar has lost the significant amount of its forest cover. in recent decades, some tropical wood is exported, but over half is used for cooking. many farmers also burns sections of the forest
4:48 am
to create new fields. then there's climate change, which is also causing problems for farmers. rain, forest soil is known to be poor, but extreme weather and erosion are further degrading the land. this, coupled with increase in drought, is leading to more and more crop failures. this is where the newly founded insect processing facility comes in. here, different edible powders are produced from dried crickets on worms with the aim of bringing insect protein on to the food market. miss factor where know that people have their preferences on pending. for example, the ne cut, some insects are more popular, gonna meet been our role is to ensure that insects are always available and insufficient quantities. ro, farmer says if under them under the manufacturers believe they can produce enough
4:49 am
powder for about half a 1000000 meals a year, keeping on processing the insects is simple and environmentally friendly. and the escrow means is also used to produce natural fertilizer for agriculture to isa. we are trying to vary the insects for to license for use with coffee plants closed on cinnamon analysis. them will also luncheon into agro forestry, unaware because of his trees because we use organic fertilizer because we knew very well the money that we cannot use. chemical fertilizers, present protected memory for is on at the know last for tomorrow. dried and roosted insects already popular dishes in some african countries. this pop up restaurant in cape town, south africa, for example, only serves insect dishes, considered booth nutritious and delicious. freshly fried crickets or worms, sell like hot cakes. here of course,
4:50 am
eating in thing is nothing new and has been popular in many places around the world for thousands of years. in uganda, for example, grasshoppers a very popular and we are finding more people turning to tradition of wisdom and customs instead of industrial farming techniques. as the such for reliable food supplies in did sandra. it all seems that mo, then manmade c varieties do not always cope well with the increase it's drought and flawed. in that a change in the climate is bringing annex report goes to tanisha. we are sit stalks that have evolved over hundreds of years, could prove more resilience for farmers, ah, in an orbit gene harvest not far from the tunisian capital here on he's one and
4:51 am
a half acres of land, solomon's goose farms, fruits and vegetables. his yields are smaller than when he uses imported or genetically modified seeds. but sullen. must grieve, still prefers local seeds mostly is empty. they don't look particularly good. sometimes they are small and crooked, but they produce better quality fruit, more nutritious and test here, and better adapted to our climate time where sally must go avoid such official fertilizers as well. he prefers to make his own compost. how in the which way assume that of the i yeah. now we're, we're trying to produce our own organic fertilizers, your work had the 1st i use chicken excrement because it has a lot of nitrogen. the yes we and then we add their remnants of fruits and vegetables that were thrown out at markets for last week with her. who is he do
4:52 am
finally we add a beat of he which has a lot of carbon here from that highly, via and no the bin for the kids to needs is government bought both hybrid and genetically engineered seeds. they were meant to produce. gretel yields the country still imports around 85 percent of it seats to day. but increasing numbers of farmers want to return to using local seats to neither sit bunk, has been able to help them. they found asian seats from tunisia in other countries which they returned to their homeland since 2008, they've collected more than 7700 different seat types. no coverage on the secret you see, and the work we're doing today focuses on genes as well as which genotype you parts crop quality and whether or not these traits fit a particular criteria. we might be able to use them for a cross pollination which would in turn lead to volume protein to have what they've
4:53 am
already eat, a or else more male to help better market his product. sally must google's or to fairs regularly. the focus on investments and technological developments in farming this year slogan is sustainable agriculture, which is an increasingly growing trend indonesia as well. we will see them talk, the farmers local seats are known for their unique test and health benefits. these are the seats, our grandparents were familiar with. the all is found the best once and past them on. it is an inheritance. they've passed on to us young farmers. every year they gathered the best seats about them. yet, selling music boy is fortunate to leave. so close to the capital, he can market his products at lots of different places, including at sustainable farming events in tony's organic farmers can sell their
4:54 am
goods. here once a week. i want to animate their money ammonia, sasha, we're fighting for independent food production on multiple fronts. we are trying to get farmers to gather seeds at the same time, we are trying to produce more seats together with our partners in one s u. and we'll do an associate will say, we'll get through our money man uh, back to natalie home. and we also doing our best to educate farmers and show them how they can contact class directly or via social media manny. i learned that he was a darla, sit him down at acm birmingham, alabama. the organization hopes that more people will use traditional local seats as alternatives to imported once sally mccoy has started collecting his own like this of a gene seats us by from my why, but was ordering the hialeah of grown aware of the important role that local seats play and amusing that knowledge, the demand for the original seas has risen and the prices have gone up along with
4:55 am
it. which seeds sailors are taking advantage of money. these seats should really be available to all farmers. and the best case scenario would be farmers obtaining and reproducing them themselves. hello, incentive, hostile with all by going to shower. the strategy suddenly seems to be working with the aba genes. sally music gooey hopes that the will soon be as plentiful as his lavender, which grows on its own in tunisia and is considered one of the most common plants in the country. there are currently over 1700 seed banks across the globe. and the biggest safeguard over a 1000000 varieties from all over the world. amazing, isn't it? i held the special edition of echo africa on the need to feed, gave you some food for thoughts. i am chris alone saying so long from ogen state
