well now when we say they're about never getting up every weekend on d w, the if our soils are degraded and can no longer use and there is no more food green left in the was what we eat. how do one welcome on solve it? got the body annual watching equaling death, given climate change, and the to accepted poses to agriculture. these doomsday while these do not seem quite so remote, especially now that we can see conventional ways of farming feeling farmers across the world. but new and innovative methods have come up with a lot of hope,

and that's what people see on on episode today. the biggest challenge that the farmers are now facing. is it optic and unpredictable weather from one season to next? they no longer know when to so whether they would have to deal with a drought or will that seems to be flooded. or what if they had precise detailed information about the micro climate of their phone? could they then make informed decision, especially with the high value crops that can cause a lot of losses and added exec company, these are the when they are from manual or is making the dream a reality for the 6 year old. so not devante is a 3rd generation great farmer. each year over a 1000000 tons of great said growth on farms like this one. invest in india, gnostic district. last year is going season and storm destroyed, $40000.00 pic, days of non faces. fortunately, his palms survived. still,

he knows only to read what it means to lose every pig to unpredictable exhibit. at the boon in 2017 then was the tendo stone in the region that no one saw coming deposit the grip. sweat in the flooding updates. so i couldn't do any spring because of the excessive reading for them. allow me to think of the bomb was black age, so i couldn't use to collect any kind of we're talking to a 100 percent off. my crops were destroyed and it took me 2 years to take a living with those losses and just kind of getting it to log in. for many years. the biggest concern for families in the region was the drinking water supply disposed to drip irrigation to make water distribution more efficient. the steps that to make due with the reduced water supply i've had with families continue to struggle to adopt to the exhilarating change and read the employment thoughts. and

what the in the box on the, on the part of the engine. they send the conditions, but predictable. or more demand easier to good at the environment has d dramatically on like the practices and it has in please outstanding info. what example on the out yesterday it was locked. i would and duty it is corey. yeah. well these lovejoy thing. conditions of the fact that great visit the that we don't know when to expect settings. what is the case? i wish i've been to help them navigate the changing climate gevalia, histone to state of the art agricultural technology, a theme from the start. the 1st thing is helping farmers in india's brief bed, secure backdrops, and every option. so it's set up at different places on the, from the data to this solar file, which dollar here will send you the one who says that i be the booth. and so in the ground i have one is 15 inches deep and

that is $24.00 inches deep insight on the inside of the they are able to tell me how much so a moisture is the form and how much, what i should be using to any get the fees, look at the quote all the way i need to drive that into the system uses real time data to give full costs about the microclimate around the firm. monitor the cruel foot pests and diseases, and improve the definition of 40 live ration and irrigation. the tests on the new smart bombing system, galvan a has been able to more than double gives anchorage by such was those neighboring farm. was it also still wanting to crest as informing, but for many the expense remains. hodges now got a lot of skill. if you want to work on a larger scale, then we have to be competitive them. but we have sort of the system for between $500.00 to $800.00 euro,

so maybe base it out. i do for the people want to add up these to closing out option here. the company is convinced that the increase productivity, getting more than make up for the up front costs on the system. what we have seen of people who are the 5 most who have been using for so on an average. i see um, you know, the koreans in the cost of quite a deviation to the extent of 50 percent. and in case of, you know, very high evaluating cops late groups. and i'm gonna put a list for families across india to live with information that's available in the native language mix. all the defense, they used to rely on experience to decide when to water. unfortunately, the crops know the weight. well no, it's from an app to tell them when it's time to into we found it on and whatnot. and his the know that if they were. ready to transform the diverse columns of agriculture in india, the need to find doing their technology based on input from the families,

solution that they're building on of any, any crop century. it takes time for us to understand the crop it's life cycle. um, it's d as in past it's a big issue in fact. and then then building validate solution for one crop. in gnostic district, more and more families embracing position farming. kansas acres out is now able to use the internet of things, enable the system to motivate his vote with delivery based on precisely measured crop code. i didn't watch the limit earlier, i would use my judgment and irritate the fall every 2 to 4 days. but after setting up the phase of devising, i get an alert on sort of moisture levels and it might show that it doesn't need water for another 8 days. i like to, i think if i'm going to be dining of one minute, just so i to my water management has improved and my use age is down by more than

happy. i think that was, it ought to be in the middle of the saves me considerable sums of money as well as the cost of running the water pump. what's the and let me, i'm more than a car, i'm going to be, but to go or find everybody. yes. it is great. bit better. 2012 is all means the breed can be exported to the was most nutritive markets, hugs to the small funding to these generation old phones are successfully adapting to rapidly changing flood. and the chances are much higher that there will be some good to imagine that the crop is very, to be harvested. and the locals are started harvesting it by hand. but this causes with i'm taking job i know, take a few days. but one of these nights it rains heavy, i don't, majority of the crops is destroyed. this is especially common with fragile. i high

value crops like bedding. but what if robots were picking these berries? wouldn't it be much fostered? and far more efficient? cl says, this is what it looks like when robots, harvest fruits and they pick much faster than human beings. startups in asia, europe, canada, and the us are springing up and developing machines that will be the farmers helpers help the future is typically sticking robots work for testily. the machine doesn't get tired. the machine doesn't make any careless mistakes. and the machines fitness doesn't change from day to day. this strawberry harvesting robot is being used in florida, a prototype that it's still in the test phase. until now harvest workers from mexico have picked the strawberries. ringback i can tell you it's a very hard job in the fields, need to be picked every 3 days. so the rule of thumb is always been,

you need one person per acre. so now with the of thousands of acres, you need thousands of people. but in the last 20 years, fewer and fewer workers have been available and the berries haven't been picked. the farmer has suffered huge losses, but necessity is the mother of invention. he hired a robotics engineer. together, they developed a harvesting machine. it costs $700000.00, but the farmers don't have to find it pretty far away for harvesting. the robot, navigates autonomously through the rows. it's able to distinguish between humans and objects with the help of lasers to get a number of patterns. one of them is this pattern that does a station keeping pattern, which we're able to hold the position of the robotic. picking that while the machine can, you continues to move at a slow pace. this wheel is, has

a series of clause on it where the robots pick the very uh, the wheels spins and another clock present itself to fix the next period. so we can go around a plant much faster and get to commercial speeds cuz we can fix, pick, pick, versus fix, move, move the robot. technology is also being perfected in europe. a, don't. your company has invented a machine that makes harvesting asparagus faster and more efficient. this on thomas tractor for sony conservation is also designed to make work easier. it couldn't work completely independently. date is 9. 1 full tank of gas is enough. the development of agricultural machinery is often more advanced than that of more tournaments cars. this is because much stricter rules applying to road traffic. me that i have to adjust the zip in farming, especially with been driving autonomously since 2003. for instance. this one and

that's correct. it's forbidden on the road. we're not allowed to use the systems there were but in the fields were allowed to welcome to the w news. we interrupt our regular programming to take you live to beijing were german chancellor wolf shots is addressing the press after meeting with china as president and prime minister. let's listen in italy who usually he can fits at home and catches the books and discuss the whole issue regarding the bilateral relations between germany and china, europe and china. we also addressed questions of global development. and in doing so, we have managed to develop topics that i've already discuss, turn public, and essentially the topic is the question of how to continue along the lines of the russian bar of the question against ukraine. it's

a terrible war that is fault with cruelty on behalf of russia. and it is important for germany as well as all the other friends of ukraine to keep supporting ukraine as long as it takes. and at the same time, our diplomatic endeavors for which ukraine and got to be under space, your standards to form will be continued. an example, our talks and copenhagen jet, i was and your conversations that are planned for the future. here we have such a sign to continue this and the conversations receive support. i believe that this is necessary progress because apart from the military support of ukraine, on behalf of germany and its friends and allies, it is also about the question of diplomacy. and this is why we currently focus on

the default. at the same time, we discussed the question of the war that started with the turbo attack of how much the cost is room. we have exchanged our points of views and discussed what is required or to your germany has a clear stance. we want to achieve a ceasefire. we want the hostages to be really useful. and you to hopefully start this has to happen this just briefly. and this is also a topic that we have discussed is defined as which of course, there are questions of economic relations. this is what we also focused on, and this is about my topics that has to be precise, where we have to be programmatic because you can't beat about the bush when it comes to, for example, a level playing field for german companies in china as well. i believe that we know how to proceed positive development. and the economic delegation was able to ask

all the questions that need to be address urgently from their point of view. and i have met a pragmatic environment, which is also a sign the image of service. this, this for me, it is very important to, to make it clear that this war cannot simply be continued by polluting the way it began. there was no cause, no reason to justify this war, which is why it is so terrible to see how cruel this war is still being fault. our support for ukraine is very clear. i am firmly convinced that the negotiations that we have led here are a building block that will make

a contribution is to target our discussing to some of the questions that we have to move forward on diplomatic terms. as i said before, the conversations we've had so far more important and valuable, and copenhagen demos. and now it is about taking further steps. and i believe that many citizens in our country understand that it is important to have not only military support but diplomatic process that we have to develop. and it has been important and very positive to raise this year. so we have a line here, sorry. if we just contact them for him, uh cuz basically that has never came up before the box. you have sap that we would like to raise at the top of do you use if we ship after the conversation? do you have a feeling that something happens here? that your health related progress and that there is a willingness and definitely not to change the attitude,

which i've already said that this is a topic that we have not raised. and the top of course, that comes with the question that you have asked here for me, it is important for me to, to make clear that there is an urgent need not to supply russia with arms the funds. of course, the dual use question also belongs to that question. it has to be impossible to raise all the necessary issues here in a way that cannot be misunderstood or whatnot. i would like to ask, once again, so do you have the feeling that you have made progress? because that was one of the aims of germany to at least reduce the export of general use goods. and on behalf of china, ron has not been mentioned explicitly. could you maybe say a few words about the points that you raised in your discussion?

does the team outdoors use just the topic of do you use has been discussed at length questions by us. so there cannot be any misunderstandings as to how we see things. and i am convinced that this is important. again, the the question that is, i'm just this is an officer regarding the attack time of the round on israel. well for me and to push to do it is obvious because it was an unprecedented attack that is completely um, justified a unprecedented escalation. that gives rise to concern, and now it is about everybody contributing to not to increasing this escalation anymore. and i have made clear that it's not only about the is riley forces. you bought a broad understanding in the region that this is not acceptable. and i am

convinced that this has been taken on board from sky sky news. do you agree with the e u and us position the charter is dumping cheap green technology products on the global market? as a see a cloud us we have, it is obvious that there was a need to discuss the issue of over capacity. use of habit that we have to discuss is a subsidy of braces, which is an essential topic because the question of subsidies can be found all over the world. and many nations choose to do that when it comes to new and green technologies or advanced technologies of electron mobility. given. this is why it is so important to establish processes that make sure that not everybody

can develop these as they like the world. trade organization is a very positive organization that we have discussed here to listen. we're usually you'll have to file subsidies, and then they are negotiated along this process. and i believe that this is necessary progress that needs to be made. so i also have a question regarding the economic relations of the business dialogue of praised china. could you maybe be a little bit more precise regarding the fields in which development were made to the field underscore home? we have discussed many individual cases, issues such as will have a copyright intellect as intellectual properties, intellectual property. so we're going to have something else for the question regarding access to public tenders for some issues connected to

different details put forward by german companies themselves. so it's a very long list, and it is important that we very pragmatic. when discussing these questions, my hope is that this will swiftly be translated into concrete facts. this is yana yvette deductible data school by and hundreds. this this the id or competition model of global trade is for everybody to compete without unfair trade practices in individual countries. while keeping everybody in a position wherever you can prevail on all the markets. and that's the key factor. all the german industry, that small, medium size indoor enterprises can produce competitive products in germany,

in europe, and elsewhere in the world. but the recipes, which is why they are so competitive, so much vice vista for me, it was important to see that oxford on even gums park. many things that used to be abstract. dr. x x actually exists. i and i hands on a tangible way. many things have progressed, especially in china, ended economic development. there were cities that are very, very large, were many modern buildings, half being erected in the cities with millions of and hopkins large of them all we have in europe. and i think this is what we have to bear in the box of our minds

when talking about china, irrespective of a to size, there were regions that lack behind in economic terms in china. but then there were areas that belong to the fields that can compete on a global scale and have developed in a very modern way as germany's transfer of shots. they're addressing the press after his meeting with the president and prime minister of china. he spoke about com and careful talks marked by pragmatism. let's break it all down with the delay . as chief international editor, richard walker rejoins me in the studio, may take away. yeah. okay, nicole, we didn't learn a whole lot during that q and a i have to admit, i mean it was, it was, it was pretty vague and a lot of subjects. and i guess like we can talk about a couple of different clusters. yeah, i mean, talking about ukraine, 1st of all, um, you know, he went to china hoping to get the chinese to crack down on the supplies for the cool deal. use. good. so these kind of not necessarily weapons

to russia, but to have components or technologies or, you know, the kinds of supplies that could help in the war effort, at least indirectly. and we just had him being off there. but, you know, did you get, you know, kind of a promise from the chinese that they gonna crack down on base? and of course we got a pretty vague it's, it's that there are a couple of other areas that was focus on with respect to ukraine. one was on a piece conferences due to happened this summer in switzerland. you know, that was definitely hope on the german side. i think that i see jim ping would say okay, china will take part in this peace conference. this is the side in the series of peace conferences, the 1st one, the chinese sent to delegate. the 2nd one, they didn't send the delegate. now the hope is that, well, let's get them to send the delegates a full, they've basically come up with this. they agreed to stay in touch on this and consult on base. what would this piece conference look like?

and i think it may bone of contention is that when you look at what the chinese are saying, but they told the chinese and saying you got to invite russia, which has not been present at those peace conference is so far. so we'll have to watch like in the next few weeks, whether that becomes a realistic possibility that russian could join that or whether that becomes, you know, a real sticking point. um, so uh and the side item which we didn't hear address so much that but that had been focused on the last time schultz went to china. he extracted language from the chinese speaking out against the threats or the use of nuclear weapons with respect to view crank conflict. and this time around is interesting to say there's sold said yeah, we got a reaffirmation of that. but if you look at what the chinese statements said, they don't that she mentioned this question of threats of nuclear weapons. they just mentioned the use of nuclear weapons. so they seem to have actually was that down. so like we can say bottom line is that progress? him this?

not that much to hold on to. but what shots is probably saying that was like okay, what we we've, we've got discussions going about negotiations about potential piece processes. and he is sort of saying that, okay, we've got one track of support to you cray militarily, but we also have some look at this of the track of, of trying to get the chinese more involved in, in finding peace. we only have about a minute before we go off air, but you know, china is jeremy's biggest trading partner. any progress there? yeah. well the, what the we had from what i felt that was pragmatism. let's deal with these issues . pregnant pragmatically. and i think the question will be going around in a lot of people's minds a cable. what does that mean and, and particularly in europe. so you're paying commission is doing some investigations into whether china is unfairly dumping kind of cheap electric, the colors or sorts of green technology into global markets in europe and other markets. and whether they need to stop kind of taking action against that. so let's

talk about pragmatism. some people might think, okay, does that means that he feels that what's going on in europe is motivated by something other than pragmatism? we don't know yet. again, we're gonna have to be between the lines. i have to leave it there. thank you so much and will be back after a short break from students the
