so far in a race against time, they are peers and rivals with one daring goal to help smart nature. the more like watching on youtube dw documentary, the, the things evolution and then the started in 1965. and that's when we saw an influx of hires. what i tease productivity boosting best to size bought to lies us and separately, steadily. and now we live in a way by one can argue that the green we eat is almost entirely artificial. hello and welcome. i am proud to go throughout the annual watching equal india,

and in today's episode we try to answer the question, do we really want a high for productivity? or do we want sustainability? and well, there are some farm us who have chosen the laptop and i've not doing that relationship with nature. so let's go meet them. grow low, couldn't eat located whether we've all heard this. but why all of this high. basically, when this is practiced in a true sense, not only do we ensure that we eat healthy and nutritious food, we also insure that local, a native of blonde and crawford. i to continue to try and contribute with those, each biodiversity that we have. what is your is a heartwarming story off ancient wisdom to this knowledge on a plate full of lucas leave us so uh mm hm. yeah, mm hm. bye bye. mean m,

your yaki, may he some by that ancient cause, these folk song describes the close born between humanity and meet them. your richard zondaway belongs to the 50 or so families who live here in the mountains of cheat f one g in northeast india as make out yesterday for my the song asks me to forgive. like the wind plants growing among the flower bed. so so, so to me, by making them can hold him, can you come all these are garlic, china along which we eat about in ship long. this is why i was and then we have bonded pals which we cultivate providing for them. come not the name for the month of september and october. they're ready to have it. so when i and because of it by not provide on the edge of what law you open when you're cutting them. so i don't

that we to hack and we have johnny's home. village of nobody else is remote and anyone who wants to visit has to escape 2 and a half 1000 steps. the inhabitants here add an indigenous people to the produce through real life. they make an important contribution to biodiversity. 3 quarters of migalia is $46.00. so people here go there across among the wide trees and shrubs. agro ecologist got the good works for the ne, slow food and agro biodiversity society, or net spots for shopped. the n g o wants to preserve the agents traditional kind of duration nutritional practices. so if we look at the, with the indigenous communities, half manage the a foot system, you will see

a component of diversity where you will see there is in the system in the of the system. this must be cropping where a variety of scrubs see if we do uh to a mapping exercises we have found that a community have about more than $202.00 foot loans. just a few years ago. there was more diversity according to service, finding this fast, but slash and burn forest cleared and i'm increasingly heavy. the info have both taken their tools on the soil. in the 1990s, the lucas on most of non co, started calculating dress to own a living. it's useful lives to feed, to make boot and fuel. but this mono culture has severely degraded the soil. nobody so football, i need to have you caught up with me. we don't. we don't like me who is a highly competitive blonde and we have gone to london with the other crosses because the damage has to crop on finally got home. but when do i leave?

i'm getting to the blotted because it's hard to move and lot one graphic. if i let me know, model by as market price is for bluegrass rules, almost calculated more and more of it to the detriment of biodiversity in the region. most foss has launch programs to revise what's being lost. like at the moment, the logo primary school, the reason the dishes are now back on the menu. elements have been replaced by the traditional jink up in the notes by pretty low seats. and let us buy the comedian blocked a bunk bed. jack, today i'm eating neutral red bump data garbage with better la seeds, nase ice and white edibles. i find the hold really days deep. my absolute favorite is the palm game. this is with the ingredients as applied by local farmers miss thoughts as also help to build a garden at the school. we do

a competitive study of the local food with a foam and a comment to be available for an open time. we, we try to for more that uh, the nutrition the uh, content of, i do see the food is really much more higher than the uh, the food that we buy from the market. this month now supports more than 100 and put the villages in northeastern india and with the help of the engine knowledge from the region. agriculture in the mountain for it is becoming more sustainable for future generations. so long as that a cool. well, how did farming begin? the 1st exit go to the revenues and happened when humans realize that instead of just depending on the way we could also systemically grow our own crops to 2023. we now live in a time when natural farming is an actual thing because farming and itself has become a very expedited to sustainable and sort of and the nature of activity with high

use and higher carbon footprints. but the farmers who are going back to naturally finding are switching these practices to protect their soil and water resources. and even that crops from humphrey floor to lies us and pesticides. a farmer all these things has been booking his unsuccessful farm in northern india as a legal district for decades. but unlike his father before him or his neighbors today, he goes and struggles quite differently. and people are starting to notice a man said was up damn, tom, did you know that there is another farming convention i received an award from the committee of senior administrative offices. my. what having the best quality projector would be sent all the farmers, one more substitute personal model. beyond the boundaries of his funds for mines in every direction. huge estates, group, thousands of tons of agricultural produce every year. mostly in the form of monro

coaches. the practice is dependent on an ever growing use of large farm equipment. water fertilizers and pesticides. on these things from use is none of these, and it looks nothing like a regular file. the practices, what is called natural farming inspired, but what do you learned from sent those come icing of multi groping. go down, sir, go ahead, my certified and we are helping our families develop multi cropping using non conforming methods. so with that kind of, we're growing the sort of an orchard which is 11 fluids, their idea of what it, let's give each man how many, how many do cropping? ma'am we also have kind of a green photo plan as well. so that does develop like a mixed photo student, which we select my sump loans out on which help fix nitrogen on the sewing. would i ask why the each client also generates income, auto se, uh, income coverage. if you have something to have the floor idea behind natural funding is to mimic the by the diversity of photos and to avoid human and especially chemical and dimensions as far as possible. so those commerce thing

conducts the regular workshops with the spineless cooperative bretzky's on a field who convinced more farmers to switch natural funding. a part was for the assignment among jo hon has been attending the workshops regularly believe natural, the finding methods into his book back on his phone, he prepared a mix of value reading and brought to a good look. good for the laser. it's dispersed over the land alone, the networks of targeted denies producing total water consumption in parts of the from the top. so it is nitrogen depleted use the long term fertilizer use. he spreads tried to go down and to use as naturally name 3, extract the product lines that may be at risk from best. but

the last one in the us. i had been using nature of the farming method of disagreement. i'm slowly switching most of my farms over to natural farming about 70 percent of my daughter land, and always farm that should have been sent to them in terms of use. the land is slowly getting back to its natural unfortunately because what years i use a lot of horror diagnose and best insight. but now don't, i don't need to spend on them. and i'm expecting much about the part. the initial transition to natural farming can be a stumbling block. soil that has been subjected to industrialized plumbing, with its regular dealing fertilizers, pesticides, and mono buncha takes time to adjust a new method and initially needs go down. it meets many farmers and easy, especially those and a lot of that. but sent those who am i seeing says the transition is unavoidable. he's gonna be assessing the best combinations of indigenous size mixtures and see,

but i think which need less water are more resilient. and restore sign him, give me the rest of the measure of the fatality of any land. it's so organic compound content which has drastically folded over the whole by honey. the best way to increase it away from it is natural funding. so ultimately, if you want to keep funding sustainable in the long term, we will be forced to switch to natural funding methods sooner or later on in the heat. the some of the government of india as well as the state of with the dish are providing some support for from us. we're making the transition the now get help from the government to find consumers for that produce the money we have decided exactly for any farmers pushed through national funding. and they would like some help in setting can reduce that, that we have is of an exclusive stock as a customer to produce market. the challenge, if there's a natural finding methods need to gain more acceptance among volt

farmers and consumers. if india is agriculture, landscape is to be shipped on these things and some of them are saying are assessing the yield and quality of that last harvest, which was thrown slowly with natural finding methods. the lessons learned will inform their approach for the coming. slowing season the later on regarding the i guess. okay, think of me, i guess they've, you know, had better local seats and have learned how to use them. but without using any audio do yet. and using all the local materials and just it's joyce you're here, we'll keep on without your walker. i might have come. now i am spending very less than making much more of the they are focusing on more no culture. now we have 2 or

more cards at the same time, and altogether this has given us a lot of benefits, not the not will, they will, the india urgently need the sustainable and resilient funding system that can combat the following genes of industrialized agriculture. and provide a better income for struggling find on the glove, but it is still in its infancy, but its methods hold promise for both the sewing and its people. well, sometimes these really like something. i'm going to be forget about it. and then one day, yours new toby's, you discovered it out of nowhere. and then we few feel happy. well, in the end, the world as the finding that last the minutes of yours need to know 20, do i need see? is the yard of minutes has decided by the un. well as one need this uh,

engineer or install allowed to who is left for minutes is a little more than that and is also benefiting how does and the language the people in southern india are commonly known to love their rights. but this wasn't all, it is the case for centuries, minutes where this w great died c, as in tom, a lot of state former engineer jonathan has set out on the mission to protect and commercialize these h 4 local minute funny to one of the gentle, loving the model and i loved growing trees. i was initially attracted to go across the board to $4.00 to $10.00 of them. so 1st i experimented with tracy the one on until i stumbled across minutes to that. and none of the alarm port alonzo lay down on the numerous varieties attracted me. so i started studying and researching the scenes on it, although there are numerous types of fox stimulants, something that a lot of thing, that video, that, that a lot of guessing that we have on only the neighborhood of one title or that are the go button. this, it was any of the following a to jonathan visited. remote villages across the thumb is not,

is aimed was to win over as many farmers as possible to growing these, or the varieties of greens, the city, the number on the bottom in the lobby until the end of the phone and see if the farmer they're not willing to go in billings and they said process will not move is by then i noticed he saw me. so we started making value added products incorporating minute. and if you was, but i don't see that we processed the fatty milligrams into every 3 on our list. i'm older from rice and voted, but i do use the dry husband stuff to do something better and to about the top of the mall and like what kind of the door, somebody know, might even single. i may need to go. the processing is done completely in the house at jenkins on miller long. we don't operations under his control. he has developed a vide product range and he's able to buy minutes from farm is growing all of the 10 different varieties of minutes i want to. but instead of using all 10 diets, industrial companies only choose what ideas that's required less processing time. i

haven't met the static properties and i'm, i think one of what any of these states i've been sorted back to the farm of making these been the only what i see available in the market on the resurgence of minutes is helping farmers gain greater control over the seats needed to grow these crops by the using the reliance on seats bought from large companies. since these varieties are indigenous to the region, the motor is into climate fluctuations, as well as best in the loan. the setup could help reduce model go to rice production, which uses a large amounts of the reasons limited water resources for the never to everyone has to get in about 10 minutes, including my business. and i last heard about them in my school. this is what it would be, but i'm on progress, have not drawn lives in 10 to 15 years. but after meeting done, i kind of, i don't, i have started going them exclusively like that in a big loving i was able to judge to an a good price for the belief that since the

purchase of the straight from farmers like me, i am unavailable. and i'm looking at it as a result of jonathan's message, these will forgotten minutes and also then export markets like single people and the united states of america. a new markets have also meant a net positive effect on the, on the regions fund every. some of this do, both stops running dry and that is the 1st sign of the depleting water table in times like these winds. rainfall is eat, attic, and unpredictable. so almost rely on what the sources like these 2 integrated the fields. and often these fields have watered intensive crops, like fatty or sugarcane, which is done, contributes to the depleting water table. well, let's look at some unusual ideas that can keep our fields from running dry. peace has exacerbated an ongoing crisis and is us water, gas, city, water salted, has become a never ending issue with an approaching global will also causes the liquid,

fresh water is not the future problem. half of the global population experience is what the scarcity of doing, at least some parts of the over consumption. he thinks that it, in fact, what's a management of training all ground water, rivers and lakes world wide? by the middle of the century, every 2nd country will struggle with limited access to water. to tackle this problem, we need to manage all want to better. we need to reuse it and figure out ways to use less of it. but that alone may not be enough. scientists think that we need to look beyond use it lots of sources, like rainfall, snowfall river run of around for to frozen ice seats in the arctic stone. it is 70 percent of all fresh water resources globally. thousands of square kilometres of ice breaks, falls as ice books every year at the males into the ocean. fresh water that is wasted duty. such has demonstrated that this. busy opportunity that

supported prevention start drinking water from the northern hemisphere. we're days dependent water to those 80 yards via the needs this month. so it can be as easily scientist at the united nations university in montreal, and also off the book, unconventional water resources from a technological point of view i spoke to already told today ships from the oil and gas industry up pulling small chunks away from drilling platforms to provide a city like cape town with fresh water for roughly 10 weeks. we need some think a lot bigger than ice mountain wing around a 125000000 tons. in comparison, a large cargo vessel weighs around 200000 tons. and instead of pulling it just a few 100 meters, it would have to be direct thousands of kilometers. it's a huge feet, but the computer simulations from 2011 have shown that this is possible. well,

theoretically, it's still a long way from luxury 3 d animation to reality one, emerald, to company the national advisor of euro s pets and to the technology to eventually put it off. but they select the funding to start the pilot face. for now, the i spoke, id is proving too big a fee to solve today's problems. so let's look to something lights up, something that can be found pretty much everywhere. like there, you know, in the morning everything is covered with a small droplets. guess what? these would be for exactly how to fuck humidity and it becomes liquid when it cools down. that's why i called glass of beer this wet on the outside, even though this spilt over in nature, this usually happens in the evening and at night when the temperature is dropped and it's possible to take advantage of this phenomenon and have as this humidity. so fog harvest team has been practiced by indigenous people on virtually every

confident this is rebecca funnel. she's a consultant and research at one of the most successful fuck harvesting operations globally. you've got some kind of material or this one is nice and 3 d. so it's got a lot of physical surface for the water to get stuck on. and then as far as passes through, it's just a cloud. you can kind of see the spray coming through in front of the other, bigger net. and then it gets caught on this net put into practice. it looks like this. on the edge of the semi or it i bump from region to morocco. there's very little rain. but for 6 months, a sick folk hangs over the region. in this fog passes $2700.00 square made use of mesh which makes it the largest for competing operation. and that was for condensers and trips into large underground deposits from where it is distributed via pipes to people's homes. the nets collected on 35000 liters of water every day, which fulfills the needs of more than a 1000 people. and it's even used to what the crops today,

the big folk harvesting operations and cheating morocco gonna. they would try a seal in south africa. but the potential is much bigger, less suitable sites, almost everywhere. a 40 square meter on that, the deal is about $200.00. you just put the costs roughly $1500.00. so this is the communities that would benefit the most from this particular technology are also those who were kind of most marginalized within countries. so getting the attention there and the kind of start up capital where it needs to be is an uphill battle. although capital is needed for ca, this thing is fairly cheap and scalable and a great solution for people living in remote areas. but it's not an option for big cities. there's simply not enough bulk and cities need more water than that's can catch. all of solution. does not seem very crazy at 1st, but what's crazy is the amount of water we could safe by implementing it. making pipes are the reason we lose nearly 30 percent of all fresh water globally bits of

staggering 346000000000 leaders a day. to put that in perspective, that's 30 times more than german households. consume. good a for more than 2000000000 desktops. a yeah. perfectly good water. we could use to drink, wash, clean, grow food. that's just being wasted. my son called me the full space. so we'll basically thomas, that was the time this is lauren guy. he co founded the tech stuff. a sterile plum us is a bit of phenomena, statements, us throughout trucks, lots of weeks, from space. they make satellite images with the help of microwaves. the microwaves are reflective differently depending on which medium they hit full space, we can get with him the sci fi underneath the us slide into the soil, into the pipes the am. so i'll go things actually gain conflicting what we can say form space. if the water on this bottom for like, for example,

came from that that was from rain or something else, they're looking for the composition of the water. if it's drinking water, they assume it's a leak and mostly that right? the result. so thickness, every adult on this met, for example, is a leak. and due to a leak of over a 120 meters per minute detected in proud to italy, volume bulk, or in chinese cities, estero sells those maps to utilities globally. so they know where to fix makes and save. money. locating leaks is only the 1st step in a long process. fixing one the my trip new ones, because it can affect the pressure within the pipes. improving and renewing pipes and infrastructure is key to saving water. and then every $40000000000.00 that, that going down the drain globally do owns here in the us. fixing fives is even cheaper than reciting water. so where does all this leave us?

there plenty of ways to improve access to water as the towing sun spots than anything what we have thought of from implementing it. and the other methods that are much easier to put into practice to day like for harvesting that works in certain areas. it's a low tech solution and quite cheap, but the biggest challenge is fixing all want to infrastructure. this will be essential to stop wasting valuable, clean water. we have the tools to do this. it's effective and just needs to be put into action. why modern layers of life have really gotten us ahead and made our life simpler in several ways that us do such an aspects of life with insurance, knowledge and traditional wisdom, trump everything else. but you let me know what you think you can write to us as you go into add that a d w dot com. keep coming back every week until then, vic, yes, you soon. now let's got the,
