hi trash heap is one of the biggest in delhi murphy. i is looking for objects that she might be able to sell for extra income trash, because on around $300.00 obesity, the equivalent of just over 3 euros as barely enough to keep move your family of 6 above water. a healthy diet has been beyond their means, but that is changing. murphy, i know grows herbs and vegetables, both for her own families use and to help boost her modest income that the within, as, as i'm then you know that i own some money selling legitimacy. when they come back from the landfill, i sometimes sell reggie tables for $150.00 to $200.00 will be when the market j dot spinach goes up to $450.00 to a piece per kilo. many earn more and when it's cheaper, i could more at home and distribute it for free in the neighborhood manual it the way they think with better either young private vegetable garden that unusual
7:33 am
around you. mafia lives in an informal settlement next to the dumb space is extremely limited, but the non profit organization since done has helped her make it a reality. despite the difficulties saki gender launched a kitchen garden project a year ago. it's m is to provide more healthy foods to people who live at the margins of indian society. why can we empower women who are really poor and who don't have too much? oh, you know, e could not make go empowerment to eat better. we found that very few women would ever eat any kind of green vegetables. it was quite rare on maximum one. so even the other problem is that nutrition is going to be, it already is a huge crisis in, in the coming years with climate change. because obviously they're going to be crop failures, you've got, you know,
7:34 am
a braces of food might raise them in the also important things like pulses and those things become more expensive. and we just kind of felt that we really have to create you trish new brazilians. so that's why the india holds workshops in the settlement, supported by local farmers about where they explain to the residence, how best to cultivate different plans and help them thrive up on the money. but they couldn't get through to go, but it's not easy creating a vegetable garden in these close quarters. it was such a challenge because there's no space. i mean, if you've, you've seen the sites, where's the space? there's no space. and even these jo give up microscopically small, the smaller than many of the you give. so we didn't tackle it and that we, what we did was we kind of tried to grow things on rooftops. and we tried to create g rooftop gardens. we tried to use the space around,
7:35 am
we tried to do stacked parts from will she are creating space for her garden, wasn't the only challenge she also didn't have the right to that 1st if you get all the right soil for her plan. spelling mammy abroad got a letter dumb at this, but did that. there was a lot of trash here. it took me 2025 days to clean this beast. after that i planted the seeds 13th and gave me cut up as a mark the lie law. i got sorry from the landfill, but it was bad quality, so i found better soil for that. okay, let me enjoy sitting here and cooking food of is a bowie, a tea chin then gave us a shovel and manure and with their help i drew fenugreek spinach. coriander i'm aren't and more, it's cheaper than buying market digital, so i don't need to get them on the market any more. and since i grow them at home, they're clean. i use clean water. here. are up now gotta katie here. stop up,
7:36 am
arlene. i'll be all is where the women here don't just loanable going vegetable. there are also workshops that teach them how to cook their produce and explain its nutritional importance. i thought that was a couple things i thought about the death of me. they were the health benefits of me today to be the nor know why we had eating this. i asked a question why they're eating, but what and buy a new eating cody. they were blan, the no, no head is that all of mine thumb that i need to explain then what is the role of my prison? why you need to have 22 year olds. sarah has been able to add more vegetables to her diet. she set up a small plant bed next to her dwelling unit. her father sire says she used to suffer from severe iron deficiency. but over the last year, her condition has improved. over at theo, did he go? i used to get palpitations and feel for deep one day when i went to the doctor,
7:37 am
he tested my blood and found law hemoglobin levels. clearly they are now fine or can. nevada doctor told me to eat green leafy vegetables emulator. i got parts and trainings and started growing food. i enjoy eating it. it is good for my body either it increases iron and cured my anemia. it is very healthy, i feel better now. the take you despite in your fostering economy, malnutrition remains a big problem. especially among the poor mafia know knows that she has to eat fresh vegetables regularly of her body is to get enough whitman's and minerals. i will not gay. his opposite boy, wal, mad go mohammed, many people become physically inactive by the age of 40 and 40 years old, and they claim at least 6 or 7 levels of the landfill. because i eat greenwich to both, i have this kind of in because of them it is that he had done it, but it doesn't. he takes a lot of effort to gaddy particular woods on your head. if i didn't have any energy,
7:38 am
how to manage and they can be the settings done, they all get the kids are getting much of delhi solid waste is collected by waste because yet just a few of them are covered by government schemes like the east from card which provides a pension and accidental death insurance. i think the government do absolutely vital. there are policies, you know, they are recognized under various rules. the god, i think the challenges in is a number one reaching out to the last we speak of. the 2nd thing is actually making available really quality social security. so for example, in delhi there's been no rush and god for nearly 10 years. how do we expect them to feed them? so they're still cleaning the city, but they're not no longer feeding themselves as well. as they should so of improved health, improved russian. i think though, the government really has to up some of that. i also think we have g s c on waste
7:39 am
and that kind of nibbles into the margin that waste because can on didn't on says it's work has already provided some 30000 people with the means to improve their diets for women like mafia and cider, it's assistance has given them more control over their own lives as they navigate the hardships of living at the base of a landfill. would you believe what the percent of india started agriculture reproduce? is they said each year. i mean that little, i mean when i 1st heard it, hunger is a big challenge when a country like india. and despite this done, the fruits and vegetables are left to right in fields and markets. but why does this happen? lack of transportation storage facilities and no market prices are some of the reasons that i know of. but what this means is not just a waste of important valuable resources, but also a major economic shock for the farmers. but then if someone was trying to reduce
7:40 am
this waste and increase farmers incomes work begins are done for families in the western indian, the state of mirage. true. my children are ignored, poverty has fed and raised his family for over 50 years with income on, on this family. i mean kind of a big give up a name in atlanta. we grew unanswered lots of hardware that then we harvested and hired our guys and it jog to fader audience to the market. lot of good lanier's. i damn mulatto guardian, that voucher is heading out to try to sell his winter on the in half of the agricultural market. a monday in orange about 45 kilometers from his village. when he arrives, he finds that a glut of onion. a stock has crashed a price. i love the few buyers he finds offer 3 rupees, a killer loss of 90 percent for provo. mother, i farmers,
7:41 am
angered by low prices, often done the goods of the markets and protest, but provide her brings the unsold onions back to his foam. the youth as fertilizer . monkey though i kept waiting for a better price. but then did i say this only us out to damage to buy unlock, so i got them back and we'd have to throw them area. a lot of there's the loss of 50000 for me on the whole grow of acre. my lady's name, in the absence of refrigeration, many farms of perishable agricultural produce, are often stuck between waiting for the right market price and foster b gritting crops. little shanker, paval gross, tomatoes, grub, that spoil even quicker than onions. here miler barbara. there is a lot of supply in the market and the tomatoes do not last long. been the ad lang, i don't, and crates. so we often have to, to eat all of it, get it when the equivalent experts estimate that one and every tankless grams of
7:42 am
tomatoes, grown in india is lost in the supply chain in nearby good. done a village. they are trying to don this mission white problem into an opportunity remonde from the village and their families have come together to celebrate the stock of the food processing cooperate. this has been launched in collaboration with the company asked for as technology's the company's co founder and the the bond is also here. so we feel it's been a wide them technology that is a combination of fire equipment, solar powered food processing machines for them to process the b and c. great. produce the always have no idea that all material and access to finance for the equipment for them to process it. and then be able to, why'd the market link is the company's building a network of a small food processing cooperatives run by local women and close to the farms that produce the food as far as buys unsold agricultural
7:43 am
produce directly from the farmers, which allows them to earn at least around 10 percent of the regular market price for the produce. the dehydration process does not need any electricity organic us. this makes it easy to set up such centers and villages where electrical supply can be patchy and casks too high for a small cooperative to bit. the company that buys back the processed food from the cooperatives to sell it to customers ranging from the dealers to restaurants, to multinational consumer goods corporations. but 1st, the product is brought to the central factory for quality on nutritional checks. here it is processed further into the form required by the various customers co founder of as far as technologies, kaneesha beer overseas. the sorting of the hydrated produce from $250.00 villages
7:44 am
across western and central india. he also regularly spent starting meeting the women running the cooperators to improve processes and vide in their network fee, our win win situation for all the stakeholders, lake and landline farmers and the customers for customers, we're providing our value added full ingredients and reliably with quality and at about a fully we'll face for the environment. where do you think the post address law says, and you're leasing the cod emissions in the environment. and also we are providing job opportunities for women families in the, our religious family at this processing center in not g boundary village. the women became entrepreneur in order to stabilize the agricultural incomes and to reduce risk and surrounding farms. they are currently working on a badge of on him grub that rent unsold and was earmarked for dumping the process $5.00 to $10.00 tons of onions a year lane allow when we make it,
7:45 am
he is $50000.00 rupees of profit a month, which fish cheer amongst ourselves. yeah, whatever is grown, whether the market bite at that good price or not, it gives an insured price here with us. how you end up said that projected crafts end up getting used and he made he me looks err. so a happy amola, cha, charle, and her fellow entrepreneurs, dick bright in their new role as business women were earlier, they would work for a daily wage on other large landholders, farms. now the business contributes to their lives, as well as to the economy of their village. we believe that their solution with this problem is bought technological as well as systematic because her boost her losses had happening the fragmented manner. we need to live in the lazy level of food closing, which will happen at those locations where the losses are happening. last year as
7:46 am
far as technologies saved and processed about $60000.00 tons of agriculture to produce. the final product is shipped across india for use in cooking or has ingredients and supermarket instant means. it is a solution that reaches to farms where food is grown. and often vested for farmers like merchandise are not provided, could be a life changing ski rotting produces not just a problem limited to agricultural goods or india. i mean, they're, i guilty of throwing away half eaten packets of brad from our fritz. but did you know that bread can be recycled? ma'am on last week, from germany, has figured out a method to recycler tons of red, which would otherwise end up in dumps. and not only is he doing it sustainably, he has also figured out a way to extract useful oil out of it. stale bread in germany around 1700000 tons of bait. goods are thrown away each year. some gets fed to animals or
7:47 am
turned into bio gas, but much ends up rushing away the dumb, self cleaning because iris mall bakery like us, it's about 10 percent for us. but at industrial bakeries and supermarkets, roughly 30 percent just gets tossed extra. but baker ludovico jaguar, has found a way to recycle his old 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 christ, supplies solid and liquid. didn't all thanks. zuba will use them for donors. it's the season sizzle. look what i made for you. is your mother? yeah. one of our wonderful i with me now this i'm back till next on 5 with us at the technical university of munich biochemist. math mode, mastery has developed
7:48 am
a method to extract oil from old bread. first the ground bread is mixed with an enzyme that transforms the starch into sugar. later, special yeast, fun guy will be added. the feed of 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 liberty 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 discovered an enzyme that cuts open the cell wools of the yeast. the enzyme derived from a mushroom,
7:49 am
this enzyme is completely non toxic. the goal of his research is to find an eco friendly alternative to palm oil. it's just in almost every product, every 2 products on the shelf, the one of the content on certain ingredient and to find as tentative, that's turned not affecting order is locked in deforestation more. and that's the main interest of the process. palm will, is both heat resistant and inexpensive. some $77000000.00 tons of it are produced each year. that's what makes palm oil the top selling vegetable oil on the world market. i had a foyer and rape fleet, but palm oil is only cheap in financial times. the cost to people in the environment is high. oil, toms mainly grow in tropical regions. their launch slates of rain forest are chopped down to accommodate them, contributing to climate change. by contrast,
7:50 am
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 msm complex. also, we're completely self sufficient. when it comes to raw materials, we can use almost any food waste, including rising cassava, sweet potatoes, and corn officers called proffered. you can use all of the plant. i'm not just the edible part, so we're not even the cohen stores out by mice and was on the solid feast oil tastes very mild, so it can be used in almost anything the bakery way ludovic. job one works can meet its need for fats almost entirely with dale bread. but how could all the bakeries benefit from this discovery? i mean, when i pick a high twenty's with, i'm a several bakeries can group together to buy a fermentation chain. can you see how much yeast oil they can produce from the left
7:51 am
i the 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 got to pull miskin back on the other home. this bluetooth vig ship blind uses the fresh east oil to make a special easter treat. the recycled oil is used in the dough glaze and filling of the chocolate brioche. so if you're going to succumb to temptation at least, do it sustainably advertise. what did you want to become? and you grew up. the answer that bob in your head wasn't probably to be a farmer. even in dominantly a grade in countries like india. children don't really want to grow up to become farmers. we either want to become doctors or lawyers or engineers. reason producing profitability in agriculture. but what happens when the same technical mind of an engineer meets the age or profession of agriculture?
7:52 am
today we meet for a deep komatt, a clean and i d n junior, who is now become an organic farmer. let's hear from him. ah, it's hard to earn a living from agriculture or so many people think. but these are things that's a misconception on, on the model that money doesn't grow on trees, but in agriculture, money really does grow on trees. in fact, agriculture is one of the most profitable businesses on the most profitable business on it. the article has huge potential st. pradeep, as long as it incorporates modern, sustainable farming methods. he's the owner of an organic in their district just got off the may not who steed as a trained id engineer. he applies his technical knowledge to his work on the farm. ah, and i'm not going to be, you know, i wanted to create a food for us to produce my own food and live of the game. now i combined
7:53 am
traditional organic farming with new technologies like bomb mechanization, repudiation and automation. so i'm also less dependent on the local labor market where it's hard to find farm work now, and then the labor to been here on the company that was going on with the help of more than education technology. pradeep can get a lot of work done in a short amount of time and doesn't need any extra hand. he's abroad is also good for the environment, because what do use can be limited to the places it's needed? technology and welcome with farmers in this region. use very basic technologies and rely on fed ation. but there is a water chart. duplication helps our water. you will see the most useful tool is the brush. it's a multi purpose. i can. the move leads all by myself. i don't need anyone else to help a lot. we also have our own seed bank. it's powered by solar energy. we generate
7:54 am
one kilowatt hour, wither solar panels, but on of one kilowatt balderas credit has also opened a stored alongside vegetables in spices he sells organic, di saw and cosmetics offered, used on the farm that age of over 100 products generates extreme. come ah, the farm brings and up 280000 movies a month, just over $900.00 utilized. he cultivates id of crops so that that is more than one harvest per season. this way the farm is able to offer a wide range of products that are i don't you on the diamond when i started my internship here, i had no basic knowledge about iglesia, i started learning a lot from the 1st day i joined dia, you know, i feel like i can learn mean half a day. what normally takes him on to like telling a follow up on
7:55 am
