12:30 pm
to business beyond, here's a closer look at the project. our mission. to analyze the flight for market dominance, east versus west, get us to the head with dw business beyond the agriculture is a stronger, especially in developing countries with climate change. it is also an imminent how long do i come? i'm finally got the body and you're all watching equal in depth. as a journalist, when i traveled across the country, one of the biggest problems and the most common problem that i see are the increasing struggles of follows. and that's, that's what the declining in and yet that on or done it,
12:31 pm
is that to offer opportunity and hope to cope with an eval, wondering what the outside are. even in dallas, western states on the hot asha is one of the most droughts preowned region in the country. it has also been an international headlines with a high number of pharma suicides that happen too long dry spells are often a direct cause for economic distress. but for one community here, switching to a drought resistance crops, what ip has made all the difference? these concludes phones as a preaching spots of light spun from a 900 metre long silk thread. the 2 precious they provide chief at euro cut off with an income such a welcome new development. i'm gonna have to make no money with cost and today
12:32 pm
i'm only about a $100000.00 rupees a month to look. i know there was still some clerical fields even though that's why the roster is traditional cotton grabbing region. but climate change is taking its toll with increasingly long periods of drought followed by heavy rains which destroy the hobbies and threatened livelihood. as a result, the highest suicide rate among farm is in the last 6 months of 2022 desperation led more than a 1000 farm is in my roster to take their own lives. the village is really the hindi wood for cotton is also affected by climate change. in the past, everyone here made a living from cotton including she about 0 possible on his family. but the plans needed not to go to. that's one of the reasons why cost him production went into decline. apologize. uh, we have to constantly spray the cotton crop we've had besides an ottoman due to the
12:33 pm
soil and it's just as i was on uh, it was an endless cycle of spending all across all the anything from a sealed the most the codes that got caught up in 2018 drought to destroy the harvest for the village of really it was the result of the time tale. that's nevada. we had just been elected village chief, he's been hearing about the potential of silk reduction or sorry, culture in india is every culture is financially supported by a government scheme called them. again, the national real employment guarantee act launched in 2006. it helps distressed real communities in india by helping local secure a stable income. it provides farm is with nearly 85 percent of the investment needed to set up a so quantum, rearrange unit. how did us decided to take the gamble for you?
12:34 pm
it's all good. i would say we made a fight as a 1st goal, was to improve financial conditions, villages next to it. so because the high yield crop has got to monitor the value on the market. um, i mean it's a high demand tech style, monica, and secondly, it can be gram with very little most of what stood out as an agricultural experiment has transformed into a knowledge scale. so climbing operation today, really 600 farm is from really of switched to serve you culture, your vehicle, our legal. i started out with 2 silver eggs from not they got 200 kilos of so good coons exploited when the farmer sold his product 482-0000 rupees. he couldn't believe it. he'd never made that kind of money from 10 acres of company bombing was for boy, just 2 acres. it's terry culture. he owned a lot of money for people. that's how it started. so this is very coat to model that really soon started to cut shown in the white and region. a growing number of
12:35 pm
from is a now planting mulberry trees, which a category showed to improves the harvest. the leaves provide food for the so when the movie trees a holiday, they grow for several years. i'm inclined much less school to fund makes them ideal for this drought stricken region. according to kind of a coach, experts seem a how to she works closely with the farmers in myra hosta. instead of capturing you've gone keels best as i told you, i'm going to be transitioned. so there isn't edwin data because you know, so you learn more about is seeing there is all of a flaw, the danger. and then in, in reading that doesn't, doesn't, does. she's also a very specific one side of it, i guess a few bits in buttons and of the things i use, but not bit of people's dislikes because of in your, the insect is sensed. the villages around the rooming unit and really together. as soon as the non, if i have hunched each fall and i received 800004 the next 20 days,
12:36 pm
they feed the cons dependents with more readings several times a day off the but because of and it's not spinning the precious soak thread around themselves to form a kick in just a few days later, the kings of harvested and sold the soap markets with prizes giving according to weight. many women and really also employed in the business, laptop the way now self sufficient and not dependent on others for money. even the men in the house, respect to some of this, but it's definitely boosted up confidence as women who are we supposed to be listening. but there's also adult side critics. a many children are employed in so production all the kind of dust and since that's not the case and ruby, another criticism is that to obtain a single long thread from the cane, the love a mustn't be a the hutch. so the set to work is heat that the gains and water to kill the lot of a, the mole retrieve all saying equal to right now the problem is that using precious
12:37 pm
groundwater but counted us and his team of set up several poems to collect raymore to how are you feeling? you are from farms is very important. 5, most of the billing the phone for or just using them as a storage to phone don't work out. i'm starting to fall apart and then use it for the issue. and it doesn't look at all the commanders, because you're going, what are the safe, which is in the or on the ground. and it is safe from the sun. but if you're feeling you're born by giving some catchment time of diverting that in. what the, what when you're getting during the season build up on it is what it is, a good practice. the silk for movie has now made quite a name for itself. that's the, the pharmacy used to have to travel a long way to the markets to sell that can choose which increased that costs so excited to get the good after one. yeah. what did that once quantity on quantity improve the, what we told the trade is that if you're interested in how supply does it,
12:38 pm
then come to our village and getting yourself to walk in the community. so today those traders come here to biologists. and i say on the farm is don't have to travel anywhere to sell it. or the highest of all is it basically part of the book is that exhibit settlements and really have also received financial support from the local authorities banks as to reluctant to then to farm it's. ready some of the villages have now achieved a negative prosperity under them their own cause or reason. a house. ready or somebody by just give me a minute, come here. but the biggest, the chief my based on the last 5 years suddenly we haven't had any farmers in the village can box. i saw it on me because of a lot of work. we had to go email, did you take place of up as up? i mean, what i to think is the name of your subsidy. so if somebody made a new model for the honey, my healthy,
12:39 pm
eliminated the beeswax and my live bomb, where we can find the honey bees for all of this. and while the actually bad for the in line one to because they compete with the white bees, which is actually the species that house because of the r biodiversity. if it was y, z in agriculture, honey, these can help boost the incomes or fall mazda and the productivity of the field. and that will, naturally nathan, saying is busy inspecting his be gone. and he's, he's a specialist in environmental biotechnology. after researching chose will be diseases in germany, and it is really heated onto his home, down of luck know in 2015 and the region needs him. why the numbers have been declining here for decades. without that part of nation walk, families have seen a significant drop in heats to compensate. ready didn't think provides a pollination silva as to farmers by renting out honey bees. well, i've got
12:40 pm
a disability that my job vp could be called a lease already set up in places like movies and music fields and transport them to new fields to the migration process. like you provided most golf production these 80 kilograms, then they can increase it to a 100 kilograms by blink, keeping all the sol k. dick. nathan, think owns of housing. gotten these off the honey, be april manufacturers to collect connected in 6, visit up to $100.00 in a single trip and can make 20 trips in a single day. in the process, they move calling from plant to plant aging, the pollination of flowers, vegetables, and fruits. best thing good purpose here is to support the funds. unlike white bees that benefit funds as well as bio diversity or. but both kinds of these are generally in decline because of one main factor. so when we use best decides to kill the home for the best, we also can be useful to pass along with this in these because they directly feed
12:41 pm
on the plants that directly go to the uh, flaws they get, the direct hit of the pesticides. so one of the major things is that in, across the globe, many countries have realized that in the vandals best decides which hum, it's not just humphrey fond practices that are impacting bees. climate change has altered rebel buttons disrupting seasonal connections between these and flowers. the uncertainty of the blooming season has put these on the immense stress as national statistics show in the last 25 years. india has lost more than 40 percent off. it's b stokes. this bomb was ease of tomatoes, chick bees and must have all suffered as a result regardless of how these fees are located, some 40 kilometers from loc, no, to the get pilot. this lower heater was dry out unless a be comes along. if it sits on it, it gets more nutrients. like you had gotten down by 20 or 30 percent or more
12:42 pm
compared to all previous crops. this one is going right. all these flowers aren't doing well. this blonde is full months old and is still growing tanks with the honey bees before i would run out of produce to harvest them 2 to 3 months. after loading of the threat, that best decides bows to honey on why these roms odd a switch to organic farming. because while be keeping may help families via these help the planet, the phone and dial 4 is the health keep other species of life and not in desperate need of protection. find to see that everyone can help save bees. one of the very easy methods of re preservation is to increase the number of ways. so it's very easy for us to just approve the weeds improve it. what we don't realize is that they are actually of a source of funding for the bees. when the means of gosh, crops on all day. so these, uh, you know, there are
12:43 pm
a kind of buffer or the wire for the, we these, and we need, these are the, was more numbers. so they're more likely to sustain the values of nature. and they're more likely to try even as long as they play, they become a very, very good source of mit, doesn't fall in for the thought of nato's play. essentially drew in feeding, a growing population and maintaining bio diversity, which we really need to be has even come to represent the survival of the human species. and protection gives us and the bees, our best shot foster son, dimensions of life, is essential for the creation of dna. and it is also a major component in commercial culture life. the only problem is the us supply or phosphorus is not unlimited. i'm more than 2 thirds of the was it is all phosphate truck are located in a disputed conflict storage region in africa. in such
12:44 pm
a diocese scenario, our reporter has explored once the solution which is available to all of us. what's one of those dna and seats? 8000000000 people. phosphorus, it's an essential element that sustains all life on earth. it's also in your p more on that later. but the vast majority of it goes into making fertilizer. why? because without it, we wouldn't be able to grow no food. the problem is that there's a finite amount and roughly 70 percent of that comes from just one place. the bigger problem is that we're wasting most of what's already there. every individual is just throwing away it left the bread every day. for countries like india, which is 90 percent dependent on imports, dwindling access could be alarming. plus, phosphorus is also causing some massive l g issues. but if the world's fruit security depends on it, what can we do about the potential shortage? what alternatives do we have and cut her own piece save us. thanks to a german scientist boiling hundreds of gallons of urine in 1669. we saw on files
12:45 pm
for us, the 15th element, and the periodic table. fantastic. he was trying to find out how to make anyway, what his thoughts are. all organisms need fast, 10 essential nutrients and essential component of life. this is barbara came out and she's a renown soil scientists based is casual in canada. that's part of our dna. it's part of our salvas consumer plus lipids. it's part of our, our and i today roughly 80 percent of the world's phosphorus is used for agriculture because it's a structural component of cells. it's a central for cell division implant development. without enough of it plants or stunted and don't yield as much between increasingly using these chemical fertilizers on farms since the post world war 2 period. together with crop engineering, it's for the green revolution. the some massive increases in crop yields, especially in the global south and places like india and nice in 16,
12:46 pm
elizabeth production was like you had a movie, the media and things nasty or lovely next to production, which typically hundreds of themed with the sedation at the atari a, as a scientist at the indian institute of soil science. definitely. they give this credit to fuck laser application because before it was, there was no knowledge about that. worldwide, fertilizer use increased 6 times from 1950 to 2000. so where do we get all of it from? stay, answer that question. we 1st need to show you the world's longest conveyor belt system, which can be seen from space. it's transporting the raw material phosphate rock from the blue crown, lying across the western so hard desert, roughly 70 percent of the world's reserves are in the western sahara, heavily disputed territory currently controlled by morocco, which the u. n. sense has been unlawfully occupying the area. a rumble army has been fighting for its independence. the largest preserves are spread across north
12:47 pm
africa, followed by china presented south africa and saudi arabia. less than 20 percent of the phosphorus used in agriculture actually ends up in the food we eat. that's partly because phosphate fertilizer is new tori sweet. inefficient. it binds easily with other minerals and the soil which makes it unavailable for the cloud. and they get 950 or fos for this apply. this is going to get down to 10 gigs somewhat people to noticed water body, but maybe 80 percent of that. when you get this, if you didn't inside, that's why the industry solution is to just check more on the soil. faster, suppress relatively cheap, adding a bit as good as it marble guarantee profits. this accumulative, phosphorus is comm legacy phosphate, how much phosphorus is lost and the soil also depends on the cell. to set a click and wait 5 minutes and it will bind to iron and aluminum to alkaline, it will react calcium. this has consequences. the use of chemical fertilizers increases to run off of nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus into bodies,
12:48 pm
water. it leads to utah vacation, which comes of oxygen in the water. it also causes massive alco bloom's, which can be toxic and producers wondering nothing when they die. and it's not just the police from agriculture, and that's the ramping plus vs everywhere in our food or tap water. so if we consume a lot of phosphorus, then that means essentially what's coming out is the same. this is janice on a call. she's a researcher at the swedish university of agricultural sciences and also so the company that turns urine and seizes into fertilizer, one out of 10 people are like that and the amount of nutrients that are in urine is enough to grow a 500 grams of weight so basically it means your urine, you can be grow, you can be producing a loaf of bread every day. she and her colleagues designed a system that essentially boils down our excreta and routines as nutrients. how to
12:49 pm
the urine diverting toilet. the solution is starting to gain traction in the west, but the upside is that it's particularly adoptable for places that don't have plumbing since it doesn't need water. unfortunately, household p is just a small fraction of all the nutritious waste on earth. there's also phosphorus and sludge and industrial waste water, not to mention the newer from livestock and dairy farming. what are the most scalable solutions is to figure out how to get all of it out and reuse it right now . so treatment plans, it's to get the water cleaner, get it. we're not looking at it as a extracting resource or, and i think he was mine and these are 6. but why not? the industry is still figuring out how to improve existing technology is to make large scale removal economically viable. there's also been advancements and the methods of extracting phosphorus from animal maneuver. there's no shortage of technologies. it's just right now, it's still more cost effective to ship box than it is to try to get it from all
12:50 pm
these other sources. we can also start earlier in the process and how plants observe more of the phosphorus. recent research has shown that certain types of fund guy induct syria could be used in the future to improve crappy old and soil health in find j. did these other estimates group of funds, a bit of lake, very good. uh, fox, sort of cabbage, anything. it can extend that high speed and scab inch of uh, fox. what else from any of the plans you know, to the scientists are still researching how these micro is could be used for large scale farming. however, transitioning to such organic agriculture takes time and could result in your losses or risk. farmers are hesitant to take the legislation could help me with the market along the you recently legalize the sale, fos for us recovered from sledges, fertilizer and is working on laws that will require more. fos for us to be removed from waste water, especially is actually quite easy to recycle the government of the set and says, hey, you have to recycle 15 percent of the cost 1st,
12:51 pm
but then you're wastewater. and then innovations finally have a chance to come to light and start the implement. frankly, the cost effective should drive a lot of innovation when it was cheap. dod value that i am optimistic kept at that . maybe i'm just optimistic in general, but space, but the technician that fits there were talking about it may be able trigger the p revolution. see this bernetta while the plan that is comes from contains water quality text. i agreed bible, which was the ghost waste. but what good can come out of this waste liabilities at all? however, there's a community of marginalized women in, so i'm in idle is monday. the 6th. we're making beautiful, fashionable items out of this waste fibers, johns plumbing, banana fiber, into baskets, them. and here individuals do, but according to them,
12:52 pm
in monday, in southern india are thinking of materials once considered waste. i'm going to get into something they can use part of them in school today to say we started working here after her husband was in prison. the job offered her and her children, a lifeline. put us in and out of the to put down that a more than a week after the incident. i was alone. i tuned for a few days days and preventative helps me during that time. if you'd let me know how i loved it, eventually the day by day my kids are getting older lady same and i didn't know what to don't bring nobody can. we can in that critical situation and i came to this job and then a lot of got into this in the city, i'm and what is the salary and the women i'm looking at the model, the international, the center for aut amico. they produce over 20 varieties of boss goods on more than 50 other types of handicrafts. the project aims to empower widows and single women providing them with book, but serves as
12:53 pm
a source of monthly income for them. the initiative was founded by johns. he has been leading it for almost 6 years and lived in nevada. when i was a kid, i used to give me a gift to my friends. i would get everything from trees including raises and create a small homes and those items. i received a positive feedback from my friends. but i believe it was during that time that i realized i'm not going from interest, rudy. with this realization that need to come to them, making things out of them. naturally. medina has been raised now by the obviously the in the india is the was largest producer of the non us growing more than putney 1000000 tons of the food every year in summer, not to the 4th largest, but non agreeing states around 10000000 tons of waste is produced, but not least for the mika project comes from pharma 50. he cultivates a fees of what on 2000, but not fees. the growth cycle of the plans spends approximately one year. within
12:54 pm
10 months, the trees bear fruit and often how listing the cut down to make we, for the next crops of the let me miss any of the it was due to be dismissed. but recently we haven't started using it for multiple purposes . in particular, we use it yet as it all material meetings, baskets. this has been very useful for us kind of the the mika baskets and other products. i mostly exploded abroad to countries like written on the usc, the women make around 8 to 10 boss gets every day they are sold for around 2000 a piece. just who would want to utilize the room and get around $150.00 to peas on one euro. 6540, it might not sound like much, but the see the income brings them comfort. and there are also other benefits and or not a lot of them. and if i'm, every woman working here faces how to spend and trauma issues from their family. at
12:55 pm
least tries to give them hope for financial independence and the chance to support their children when we come together and work as a team or all up being seems to for you to work with them now. and the best thing that he has, the women say, nothing from nature is based it the believe their work benefits the environment. but more importantly for sylvie, it also brings her closer to her dream to empower women, just like how to support themselves and their families. i would love to get my hands on a hand bag made out of, but i don't know if i was who would have thought, but it is ideas like these that actually only making additions to the fall most to us. i'm to the planet. but you let me know what did you like the most about today's episode, and what would you like to see more of? i will see you soon until then take a goodbye. none of us. gosh, the
12:56 pm
12:57 pm
the kluge. i am still in romania is raising a major stink. b e u has invested 40000000 euros in creating a modern waste management system. but where has the money gone? our porter searches for clues, dirty task, focused on europe. in 30 minutes on a w to the slicing for the traditions and language,
12:58 pm
the have the indigenous people live on the cruiser volumes of kansas pacific coast. after 2 centuries of oppression that's finding the way back to the root culture. the hate, the people in the seventy's dw, the trash as an environmental 9 me a clothing graveyard image of land desert. this is where things wealthy industrial nations no longer need and lightest textile waste gets stranded here. all about the final stuff in the global fashion industry,
12:59 pm
the fast fashion watch now on youtube. the want to know what's going on in roads now someone is getting ready to jump in this. someone is screwing these words locals on wearing that best small. this is rose now and now is the time. thank you to book your trip to rome. rome once you love these keys, [000:00:00;00]
