is more likely to lose their jobs in the pandemic black lives matter. shine a spotlight on racially motivated police violence, same sex marriage is being legalized in more and more countries. discrimination and inequality are part of everyday life. for many, we ask why? because life is diversity to make up your own mind. d. w. lead for mines. oh, it's germany's favorite drink. and after a crude oil, it's the world's most traded commodity. coffee makes many traitors, and roaster is rich, but growers stay poor. many are forced to give up their plantations in thought. my coffee coffee drinkers tend to pay a lot, but the growers get very little, but

a tv apple producing it harms the environment. unconventional cultivation isn't the only problem. the fastest way to get organic is to cut down a virgin forest and play coffee and it will just go crazy. and then she buys huge piles of organic waste remain. so this is a super fit that right now is going to waste the beans off and travel halfway across the world. good. this plant be grown more locally and germany is as pay. this field will be coffee. this plant has a future it's time to take a hard look at how we consume and produce coffee. is there another way? ah,

ah. you look at 1700 meters in the honduran highlands. the viet benitez is reaping the fruits of his labour kilometers. could bundle look around them being we only picked the bright red cherries from the pin for his own awkward thumb. we leave the rest to ripen further. little here. hm. and out of country ah, here in the hills of santa alaina, the young coffee grow were brave, the son, drought, and market power. his adobe house without electricity has become a nucleus of change. his siblings, parents and grandfather also live here to save the farm. they've had to learn the new methods davida vinitez introduced after studying agriculture. when i, when laura said that of the, i don't know, maybe if he, in honduras,

most farms had been lost. the law, the worst case, all mother ratliff, some communities have left her old ponds behind and cut down forest to plant more coffee. and yes, of course, that's not right. last time we did the many abandoned plantations and fresh clear paths. are evidence of the destruction or conventional sun ground coffee is one leading cause of deforestation. every cup of coffee that's consumed destroys about 5 square centimeters of rain. forest, coffee grown in full sun brings the highest yield, which is why nearly half of the acreage and central america has been converted for this type of cultivation. another 25 percent is being converted. davin, vinitez, dest things differently. when the width is audible, like this is

a guam, a tree pulled out of these trees, provide shade, and on which the soil with organic material material gun. he grows as plants in the shade of the forest canopy. cafe northeast. that the coffee is less stressed by the sun. my, my load i see on the plan ripens a bit slower yet, but the quality is higher than i see on buffet. mental also shaded coffee plans don't need heavy irrigation fulsome cultivation, however, requires enormous amounts of water as does the industrial processing of the beans producing just one cup of coffee require is about 140 leaders of water. a kilogram of coffee requires 21000 leaders that could just about phyllis swimming pool. after cocoa coffee is among the food steps with the highest water consumption, devin vinitez doesn't waste a drop. the lower kimmie, my battery,

and the gal i watched the coffee in a barrel bought on the la on them. i mixed some of the water into the compost and the rest i used to water the farm, vela my. it contains lots of nutrients from the cherry pulp, cielo lee. yea, daniel grants. when debbie vinitez switched to where, again, a growing, his father was skeptical, but not any more or less with lucille. this is the answer from faith that of the vietnam iron's esther. he lived this way for thousands of years yet. dotcom. okay. how could the big corporation say we can't survive without conventional agriculture? committee or not, not m a b? i. so daily, so as dante thought of the design. 3rd, we used to use a lot of fertilizers, fungicides, insecticides, everything. the transnational corporations gave us the out of dealing solar when we 1st switched. organic farming production dropped 50 or 60 percent,

but kathy will think went better, not stabilize and is now on the upswing. hollywood under your own, went on the per implant every year, little by little, our coffee harvest increases m l like before, where we'd have a good yield one year and a bad one the next years he and daniel at pocketbook shall that e vinitez wants to achieve even more, he striving to convince other coffee farmers in the region of this method. oh, here 2 in south western germany pioneering work is happening. i if he has he vis here it looks pretty desolate. a bunch of thistles in here are edge. they made a, this is amber, it's due to the weather, our village, but that we don't spray, so we have to put up with the weeds. liam kern among the undergrowth grows their most valuable crop. i

am glad to assist you when he hear that rattling inside the hod. yeah, then it's dry enough to thrash is a scorpion, some brazen, ellis, in flit cline, have developed the regional alternative to coffee there. finally, having a break through many years in the making for mom you have shown 6 and my lead are making live in coffee for 26 years now, not guns. another me, but the generation back then said no thanks. we can afford real coffee. now on the so today's generation says, no, we want to ensure a healthy climate size coffee produce to conventional cultivation travels thousands of kilometer is to reach germany. growing lou pins in germany saves a lot of seo to missions in transport. and it improves the local soil. de lupina lubin has very long tap roots and therefore can draw from those sources than usual . my food lay stretched down about 5 meters, me to where there's water,

even in these dry summit, this is all been done, openly isn't hawkins on it's really a plan for the future, especially in terms of climate token floods. if i'm, if this wasn't such an issue back when the klein's 1st, we discovered this dynamic flowering, ligim busy denying her face, figuring out a body between 19 sixty's newton was the protein crop in northern germany, there is depending if oil embody my why the car to get the event with a cheap saw imports. it was forgotten. something's wrong with it. rob ish or shoulder be slow, thornton, i'm how i was able to help bring it back down and i'm happy that i could talk about offers thought was torn cotton ah, that lines were also keen to experiment. the 1st tried roasting them in

a pan wrists on vicinity. pop smells a bit like a popcorn most fully furnished. edc, the original idea was to megan type of toford. i would like to enthusiastic because i thought it might go bad fairly quickly. does this flush to hi letesha registered and who would buy it front of cove eyes? yes, he is. a guy totally wasn't so in like it is today. why do we then experimented with roasting coffee from it? because even then everyone drank coffee to celebrate the good harvest, the blinds are serving homemade cake made with lupin flour, along with their caffeine free coffee, alternative latino. they're also planning to launch a new loop and product by the end of the here.

it's a big day in santa elaine, out the copy harvest is being brought to the roster, low bow unloads coffee from the ve benitez and other small holders. lowell powell is from the us and his wife myra oriano. powell is from this area together. they founded the contract community the initiative sells this regional organic coffee in the united states. they then use the profits to support environmental and social projects and honduras for traders. not enough farmers are not getting ahead. so is it, is it better than nothing? yeah, but is it enough? no, because he doesn't have any disposable income for me was coffees about is the people behind in if we need to treat people with respect and so sometimes

giving people respect explain more for for them to noah. powell was a prosecutor at u. s. immigration for 12 years, he knows the fates awaiting those who have to give up their coffee plantations and emigrate. i left my job. i just didn't like prosecuting people, right? wasn't her. you know, you rather be around people helping them here. i still feel like i'm a lawyer, but the other kind of lawyer, there's a problem. my job is to fix it. with a contract initiative, the couple promotes more humane and sustainable production. they also support further education programs and fair wages. we don't have to be increasing our earnings by 10 percent, 20 percent every year. why not earn 5 percent and then leave 15 percent with people that actually make it happen. so i think it is greedy that is taking us to

destruction because they were not taking care of the environment. we're not, they can go, especially people i don't think is is some thing impossible. i think we need to support people like that. the normal powell collect the harvests from the initiatives, small farmers. what he sees during his trips to other plantations worries him tall mondo like he timid. think cuz everyone who used to have traditional farms with good coffee varieties and lots of shade trees, e con. but then many started switching to conventional cultivation to ramp up production. dear convention, it's the wrong way strokes young malcolm. you know what ails belong with each benitez. the initiative wants to show the farmers that there is a better way. it may not turn a quick profit,

but it's sustainable. with laurie ventura took over the family farm. she's had to rebuild it. it could be a month ahead. i mean, if possible, my husband used to do everything now for 4 years. it's been just me, use her husband abandoned the plantation because of a nasty breast found us looking more. let us empathy. i'm low, low, a rust fungus hits. sometimes the fruit doesn't ripen and we can't harvest that for one year. if the good harvest i know, and the next year there is nothing daniel. yeah. miramar that a fellow in full sun, cultivation and climate change weaken the plants, paving the way for the destructive fungus to spread rapidly across central america

. since 2012, it's been destroying the livelihoods of thousands of coffee farmers, including that of gloria's husband, who emigrated with her 6 children to the us for work. many thousands of farmers from central america attempt to that same trick every year. if they make it into the us, they usually take on unskilled labor and send their hard earned money back home to their families. of santa alaina's, 14000 residence, 2000 left their homes for the us last year. david benitez wants to show those who remain how to build resilient farms stick. i think the style bower sombre, coffee grown and shade is less susceptible to rusty hunger. a step by step, the farmer should make the transition to shaded cultivation on one professor. but

as you see all together, they draw up a plan that will help gloria ventura increase her yield. gay sandra are anabolic gloria, complaint trees all along the banks of the creek law, and that i am also malaria. this will increase the humidity in the area in micro organisms and warms will do their work. if at all, gloria ventura is among the ab small holders who have joined to the petrov community. they benefit from its sale system. my idea of body authentic is i got to play most coffee growers need to take out loans and what the earned goes to paying them off and the other in their most but it's different with gotcha hotels. but it, but i'm a lot we harvest enjoy the beans and so directly on the day of the yeah, i mean effect and we make more profit as i yield the name of my benefit,

the coffee market fluctuate greatly in the last 4 years, the farmers burned on average, less than one euro per pound, fair trade brings and roughly one euro $0.30. through the cut russia initiative, they earn almost double that trip. but better pay is not the only perch levied benitez and the contractual initiative have even more ideas to benefit coffee growers. a with. ready change is also a foot in nicaragua. carol whitmeyer has traveled from the u. s. for this pile of waste. this is the cascade on the left over that we hope one day this pile will completely disappear. so this is a super food that right now is going to waste. and if we can turn that into

nutritious food, that's the goal. carol whitmire has come to nicaragua for the coffee, cherry start up. this is our 1st visit to the facility where this, suppose it waste is being turned into a high quality product. all of that coffee. we're still a startup, we're still small. and one of our biggest challenges has been educating both consumers and companies who can buy this as a wholesale ingredient. we're creating a whole new market where there, ah, you can smell the coffee with the coffee supplied by the farmers is pitted here by machine. then it's sorted washed and dried. ah, the industry is focused on the coffee bean, but the cherry encasing it makes up 40 percent of the fluids weight.

$322000000.00 tons per year of pulp are discarded worldwide. it's a major environmental problem. the heaps of rotting fruit, release methane, acidify the soil, and contaminate the water. the facility manager shows carol whitmeyer, how the team processes the coffee cherries are useful. a liquid forces the coffee flour team, a or a transport the cherries to the trying area. acela's echo panther to catch the fruit skins before they're fallen to the bucket under discarded electric with one of the saves the skin for, for the processing just got on the planet. carol with buyers, company in the us produces flour and flakes from the dried fruit. it's got the dried fruit dose and all of the sensory,

the roller that we look for in coffee, cherry farmers have not been paid for that before. now we will pay them for that. so it is new income 80 workers have been hired for the business here. flour and flakes are already on the market in north america. recently, coffee cherries were also approved in germany. all of this is available to be sent to europe. this is all available now, but it's not only in the major export countries that coffee cherries are being reconsidered as an ingredient. let's go get to go see the 1st cherry begging carol when minor wants to learn about the work and see the fresh fruit up close for the 1st time. i finally get to taste one. 0, it's got this wonderful sweetness too. it does take amazing various types of coffee,

gro, on this organic plantation and nicaragua, until now, local residents didn't consider the yellow and red cherries suitable for consumption time for some experimentation in the canteen, where 3 meals are prepared daily for the farms employees. so how many tortillas do you serve a day? walk almost 1500 or t, as for this goal, people for permanent workers. here, they're testing out how dried coffee cherries taste in traditional tortillas. the new ingredient could offer some extra neutral, no value. in addition to caffeine, the coffee cherry contains a lot of anti oxidants minerals and protein, and it's more than 50 per cent fiber with the

pharmacy manager is excited about the new product. this is a really good idea for him. vitamin 2 addresses so much farmers full time, they drove on the river stool yet and many of free vacant. i mean, yes. but how does a taste? here comes the moment of truth. ah, my offer days. i feel like a fruits like 5th 340. i like both, you know, in the us. some restaurants and bakeries have already begun incorporating coffee cherry flour into their menus with chest. jason wilson shows off which dishes utilize the ingredient and his upscale

restaurant. he's been working with a startup from the outset, and is constantly developing new recipes. we did the okay, we did some madeline's, we made some chocolate cakes that i worked with us. i feel like tirelessly to figure out the water replacement ratios are different recipes. because this is fruit powder essentially m, it's a very high fiber fruit, as wells with jason wilson wants to sell this crunchy granola with coffee cherry flour in supermarkets with eat. vinitez has many ideas on how to revolutionize coffee growing in his home country all while inspiring other growers under contract or cooperative farm, he's devoting himself to his latest project, a teaching garden. a former we're growing more than 100 plants species here.

we're telling people that you just grown a small space and grow a diversity, and this is the same thing that davida is doing in their mouth. watch her is in his movie, asian levy from own agriculture. if thermal def in the, in the latin mia kalia, we're sharing our knowledge with the community on how to go native seeds dance and avoid using pesticides that harm the environment. gender cannot see me at the one that, that on that. and so these are things that farmers can apply at their own houses. so our hope is when people come here you like, oh, i can do that. david vinitez combines the knowledge of his indigenous ancestors within sight of modern agriculture. he knows how vital it is to use every part of the coffee plant and waste nothing to kill you out of my own benefit. if we take

our coffee to a mill, the fruit skins are discarded. battles, but when we put the coffee ourselves, we can turn the fruit skins and the fertilizer in order to let him catch the police by young farmer from the neighbourhood is curious to hacking and now we add micro organisms. naval hello every 30 days. sometimes 2 or 3 times know the pin, the l got it quicker than it'll get got if this is a great fertilizer which we use for vegetables coffee but for all crops, but it got there, but i thought of the deals alongside coffee. he's planting fruits, vegetables, herbs, beans, and corn on his families to hector's. more mixed cultivation strengthens the plans and provide to stanley with something extra me her the best rebellion is to produce what you consume. so you don't have to depend on the trans national companies with against the odds. davita benitez has managed to

drive as a small farmer in honduras. ah, ah, he's also introducing new methods to others and sharing his knowledge. ah ah, the young coffee farmer is determined to stay in his homeland. ah, ah, he may want, but i don't know, but i found you in the way if i went, for example, to the u. s. i would on dollars of course, mandela that same yellow thing, but the money had sent back here. we'll go straight to buying food. and now that makes no sense in all the same montgomery course we knew. instead, we produce what we consume and eat what we produce. that's the best well,

fair is on the holiday, jessica. on the unless i knew it. and that will not one of our dreams is to have a farm school where growers can come here and learn about what we do. a sandwich, a man who inspires others and shoes. when it comes to coffee, there is another way, ah ah, with

who enter the complex zone with sarah kelly. as rush as war of aggression against ukraine raises on the battlefield. it is also using information pam hanes to promote both narrative and accomplish so special. i mean a security conference by at the high level panel. how and when in the battle again,

information conflict in 30 minutes, d, w. mm. mm. should we how do we treat animals and why hasn't anything changed? does this is actually a clear violation of animal protection often. why do we love some as companions while eating others? yeah, i never thought about how strange it was that i could had my dog with one hand. well, i ate a pork chop with the other. what is the alternative and how does it taste? it's like the real thing. yes out. will we all be begin in 50 years? i literally think that like are the next generations. well, i'll look back and say, that's crazy that we ever use animals to get a documentary series about the

future of food. and there were complex relationship with animals with the great media debate this week on dw dash with ah ah,
