10:31 am
going down there. we will explore these questions. i'm much more. so join me on this journey to farms forest and factories. and right now we're in new delhi, the capital of india. the city where i grew up studied and became a journalist. deli, made me up curious person throwing questions at me that forced me into this profession to find the answer. and that is exactly what you and i will do on this. so we will dig deeper and she has the details about our environment. how it's changing, what other solutions and much more from across india and europe that does johnny with something that you're probably driven past if you've been to them dar mountain of garbage. the puzzle i landfill lexus. stand houses are black because across the city have you know what part about the lives of these that because we live here. applause their lives, i, rife with. what things are to for the better, at least for a few with every
10:32 am
day mafia claims them. house law landfill the 60 me to hide 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 own around $300.00 the ability, the equivalent of just over 3 euros. it's barely enough to keep move your family of 6 above water. a healthy diet has been beyond their means. but that is changing mo, fiano, grows herbs and vegetables, both for her own families use and to help boost her modest income that the worth in. as, as i'm then you know that i own some money selling ready to purchase when they come back from the landfill. i sometimes sell reggie tables 415-2200 rupees when the market dock spinach and goes up to $452.00 piece per kilo. many earn more. and when
10:33 am
it's cheaper, i could more at home and distribute it for free in the neighborhood manual it the way they think with bertha i the young vis, private vegetable garden, that unusual around you. lucia lives in an informal settlement. next of the dumb space is extremely limited, but the nonprofit organization clinton has helped her make it a reality. despite the difficulties. saki chin done 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,
10:34 am
in the coming years with climate change. because obviously they're going to be crop failures, you've got, you know, 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 new trish new brazilians. so that's why the india holds workshops in the settlement, supported by local farmers about where they explained to the residents, how best to cultivate different plans and help them thrive up on the money. but they couldn't get through. 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 the space, there's no space. and even these jo give up microscopically small, the smaller than many other give. so we didn't tackle it and that we,
10:35 am
what we did was we kind of tried to grow things on rooftops. and we tried to create g rooftop gardens. we try to use the space around, we try to do stacked parts from lithia, creating space for her garden wasn't the only challenge she also didn't have the right tools at 1st if you get all the right soil for her plan. spelling mammy abroad got a letter. i'm at this, but it did. there was a lot of trash here. it took me 2025 days to clean this piece. after that i planted the seeds 13th and gave me at that best somewhat. de la la. i got tired 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 t chin then gave us a shovel and manure and with their help i drew fenugreek spinach. coriander,
10:36 am
eminent and more, it's cheaper than buying market which are to boost. i don't need to get them on the market anymore. and since i grow them at home, they're clean. i use clean water. here are up now. got a katie, they're supp, arlene, i'll be all is well. mainly the women here don't just loanable green vegetable. there are also workshops that teach them how to cook their produce and explain its nutritional importance. i believe they talk about the basically they what the hell benefits of me today to be the know know why we had eating this. i asked grace's why the eating but what and buy a new even cody, they were blank. they don't know, it is that all of mine done that. i need to explain them. what is the role of mentors? why you need to have 22 year olds. cyro has been able to add more vegetables to her diet. she set up a small plant bed next to her dwelling unit. her co signer says she used to suffer
10:37 am
from severe iron deficiency, but over the last year, her condition has improved. over at the old indigo, i used to get palpitations and feeling fatigued. while day when i went to the doctor, he tested my blood and found law, he will globin levels. clearly they are now fine. aka nevada doctor told me to eat green leafy vegetables emulator. i got boards and trainings and started growing food. i enjoy eating it and it is good for my body either. it increases iron and cured my anemia. it is very healthy, i feel bad now the t q despite in the us fostering economy malnutrition remains a big problem. especially among the poor mafia know knows that she has to eat fresh vegetables regularly if her body is to get enough of it. the men's and minerals will mark a his obstacle while mary go mohammed, the many people become physically inactive by the age of 40 and 40 years old. and
10:38 am
they claim at least 6 or 7 levels of the landfill. because i eat greenwich to both . i have this kind of in which they said he had done it, but he doesn't. he takes a lot of effort to get into the killer woods on your head. if i didn't have any energy, how to manage 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 week because 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 you expect them to feed them? so they're still cleaning your city,
10:39 am
but they're not no longer feeding themselves as well as they should. so of improved health, improve russian. i think though, the government really has to up some of that. i also think we have g s c on waste and that kind of nibbles into the margins that waste because can on didn't on says it's work is already provided some 30000 people with the means to improve their diets for women like movie insider 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 40 percent of industrial 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 wrought in fields and markets. but why does this happen? lack of transportation storage facilities and no market prices are some of the
10:40 am
reasons that i know off. but what this means is not just a waste of important valuable resources, but also a major economic shock for the farmers. but that is someone was trying to to deal with this least and increase farm was income work begins at dawn for farmers in the western indian. the state of mod auster, my children are economic poverty or has fed and raised his family for over 50 years with income on, on this family. i mean kind of a big give up on a minute law. we grew onions with lots of hard to art. but then we harvested and hired arguer splendid drug to fade the audience to the market. lot of good lanier's, i damn mulatto guardian, that provider is heading out to try to sell his winter on the in half, just at the agriculture monk, a monday in oregon. 45 kilometers from his village. when he arrives,
10:41 am
he finds that a glut of onion. a stock has crushed a price of the few buyers he finds offer $3.00 rupees of color, loss of 90 percent for provide mother by them. oh, farmers angered by low prices, often dumb the goods of the markets and portez but paval her brings the unsold onions back to his foam. the youth as fertilizes monkey, though i kept waiting for a better price. but then did or said this on your side to damage to buy it online, so i got them back and we'd have to throw them area a lot over there. so loss of $50000.00 for me on the whole grill of a come when you ladies me. in the absence of lesser generation, many farms of perishable agricultural produce are often stuck between waiting for the right market price and fast degrading crops. little shanker, paval gross tomatoes, grub, that spoil even quicker than onions. here my lab work for there is
10:42 am
a lot of supply in the market, and the tomatoes do not last too long when they are lying around and quits. so we often have to tour it all of it will get it when pick want ellen. experts estimate that one and every dancler grams of 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 ask for as technology's the company's co founder and the the bond is also here. so we 1st put a wide them acknowledge g, which is the combination of fabric, the main solar powered food processing machines for them to process the b and c grid. pretty was the i took away them that all my detail and access to finance for the equipment for them to process it. and then be able to why'd the market link is
10:43 am
the company's building a network of small food processing cooperate is run by local women. and close to the farms that produce the food as far as buys unsold agricultural 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 costs too high for the small cooperative to bear the company that buys back the processed food from the co operatives to sell it to customers ranging from the dealers to restaurants to multi national consumer goods corporations. but 1st, the product is brought to the central factory for quality. i'm nutritional checks. here it is processed further into the form required by the various customers co
10:44 am
founder of as far as technologies, gleneesh beer overseas. the sorting of the hydrated produce from $250.00 villages across western and central india. he also regularly spent starting meeting the women running the cooperators to improve processes and vide in their network. see our win situation for all the stakeholders. lake and ran late farmers and the customers for customers. we are providing ah, value added full ingredients, the lively lead to quality and at about a fully will face for the environment. where do you think the post address losses and you're leasing the field emissions in the environment? and also we are providing job opportunities for women families in the ah, religious family at this processing center in nazi boundary village. the women became entrepreneur in order to stabilize the agricultural incomes and to reduce
10:45 am
the rest and surrounding farms. they are currently working on a batch of on im, grab that rent unsold and was earmarked for dumping the process $5.00 to $10.00 tons of onions a year. lane allow, but we made at least $50000.00 rupees of profit i meant which fish share amongst ourselves. yeah. whatever is grown, where did the market bite at a good price on now it gives an insured price. here with us how you end up said that projected cross end up getting used and he made she me, earth ready? happy. hello. hello, child and her fellow entrepreneurs, big 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 contribute to their lives, as well as to the economy of their village. we believe that the solution with this problem is bought technological as well as systematic because her boost her losses are happening,
10:46 am
ad fragmented manner. you need to loosen the laser level of foot literacy, which has happened at those locations where the losses are happening last year as 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 scheme. rotting producers, not just a problem limited to agricultural goods or india. i mean they're all guilty of throwing away half eaten packets of bad from our fit. but did you know that greg can be as these i could, ma'am on last week from germany has figured out a method to recycler tons of red, which would otherwise end up being dumped. 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
10:47 am
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 for us. but at industrial bakeries and supermarkets, roughly 30 percent, gets tossed extra. but vacant ludovico jaguar has found a way to recycle his bread. he 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, job will use them for donors. it's the season. look what i made for you this. you
10:48 am
must have a wonderful i don't i get with me now. this come back till next on 5. 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 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 libya 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
10:49 am
discovered an enzyme that cuts open the cell walls 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 products on the shelf that one of them can turn on in certain ingredients. and to find as tentative, that's 10, not effecting 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 rapes eat, but palm oil is only cheap in financial times. the cost to people in the
10:50 am
environment is high oil palms. may me grow in tropical regions. their launch sweeps 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 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 prefer. you can use all of the plant, i'm not just the edible part, so we're not even the corn storms out by mice and was on the solid least oil tastes very mild, so it can be used in almost anything the bakery way ludovico siobhan works,
10:51 am
can meet its need for fats almost entirely with dale bread. but how could all the bakeries benefit from this discovery? and they were a bigger high twenty's was 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, i the bread of that way, the risk isn't so great. and at some point, everyone might be able to use their own bread to make french fries at home. why not? and i got on me. get back on the other bonus ludovico 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. either side, 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 pharma. we either want to become doctors or lawyers or engineers,
10:52 am
the reason reducing profitability in agriculture. but what happens when the same technical mind of an engineer meets the age or profession of agriculture? today we meet for a deep komatt claim id and 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.
10:53 am
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 combine 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 burn and see on the complete allied financial 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 use can be limited to the places it's needed in a technology by combining farmers in this region used very basic technologies and rely on fed ation. but there is a water shortage. duplication helps our water. you will see the most useful tool is
10:54 am
a rush. it's a multi purpose. i can remove it all by myself. i don't need anyone else to help. we also have our own feedback on it's followed by solar energy media and they want you to walk with solar panels, but on, on kilowatts. what about the pants also open the door alongside vegetables in spices. he says, organic b salt and cos mythics all produced on the farm. the range of $100.00 products generates extra income. ah, the farm brings him up 280000 rupees a month, just over $900.00 euros. he cultivates of crops so that there is more than one harvest plus even this way, the farm is able to offer a wide range of products. ah, got you on the diamond when i started my internship here,
10:55 am
i had no basic knowledge about the culture. i started learning a lot from the 1st day i joined. you know, i feel like i can learn in half a day. what normally takes a month telling a farmland hon. i'll look up the beep says organic farming offers attractive and lifestyle opportunities for young people in his own experience has shown there's a lot of school for group you know, a lot with i don't challenge is that when i 1st started, this is the 1000 to get my and a lot of skepticism, you know, do you have to be ready to tackle harder? i came from the corporate world and managed more. so i have faith in the younger generation. if i can do it, so can be the bullying. from one of them you get to get in the morning, you know like a little more tradition aided by technology when it comes to organic farming. believe it's been in combination i'm sure you like this episode
10:56 am
