6:17 am
satellites are rarely gathering info from sub saharan africa. a canyon start up wants to change this using artificial intelligence. this from uh, from the airy kenya has been working with satellite images to increase his crop, used to support since by us, stop up specializing in eco friendly technology from the capital nairobi their goal farm us should have access to more data on the soil. the weather and future changes to the climates using these dates that we're able to to create to models. and then what else does that help us, you know, to, in this time, what is happening at the farm at any point in time for farm us like marching when the keep climate change, just making it increasingly difficult to tell when to stop slowing. his hold slow rest on the data from the software i'm you need which could help him to be more efficient when you have enough that the boat that living with
6:18 am
a little is that it is going to come in the do not last long, it will be shortly easy lou lou, but it was in the last 3 months, but yeah, across if it is going to be longer and then you little we have going to do major you all those plans that go for a longer period. busy i mean the give us with the and so it was a, so from set to lights in space and analyzes this using a i. the company is based in nairobi, since most satellites are not directed towards gathering data from africa, guessing high quality and reliable data is challenging. i mean, you follow the kid kennedy wants to change this. we wanted to make sure that countries in the global south were also equipped with the same platforms that the global nose had been able to get access to. and if the west of the global nurse, as accelerated as an, as created the world that we see today, sort of technology, africa, hasn't been able to capture that revolution because of the lack of high quality and
6:19 am
accessible data. kate kilo's isn't tackling this challenge alone. she wants to fundamentally change how data is gathered across africa and is thus co operating with academic research institutes. and can you use machine learning to protect the climate ultimate see what we building that, i mean is onto the legacy to the african continent. so we hoping that as we continue to work with the students and build capacity within the continent, they come and take over and bring that. that's um that mission and the vision a 100 times further. and that's uh, that's what we'll be able to do it today. in less than 5 years, i mean, he has already raised more than $2000000.00. kate cal, it wants to use the sets of light data to improve. i mean, nice machine learning system. the data can provide more information on the impact of climate change. and the soap, the farm is on the grounds. here,
6:20 am
small scale farm is especially important to when i see people who say, well, these farms actually don't have an impact to have an impact. when you put $600.00 millions of them together are, they saved the entire time and that's very powerful. and that's why we should care about this fund. supporting individual farmers. that's also important. small farms produce around 35 percent of the world's food, despite using just 12 percent of all agricultural land. that means there'll essentially for our nutrition. one project that support small farmers is in northern camera room. a classroom in the north of cameron room. and this calls from us use v r headsets to enter virtual fields and learn how to keep the real will as comp implants pest free fit to do form. i assume based type
6:21 am
of training let's farm is practice new methods or is by being able to try them out . they understand the challenges better and kind of depth, a quote on, on a lender to me. color, watch see how the whole p loans house will grow cotton from his parents. now he'd like to try new methods and expand his skill sets. the v r headset, let's in train on the virtual co fields here. he can zoom closer to the plans in order to spots potential pest infestation that could from the plants. another valuable lesson from the cost is that spiders each caps up your loss can be helpful for pest control. to formulate big deal feels like you're inside the video on the fields and kinda observe what's happened. that's the one that's being really helpful for us. for me is some of whose it is something in this virtual worlds the farm as also learn how to produce biological pesticide spray by mixing ground mean seats with water, vegetable oil, and
6:22 am
a bit of detergents. not only is it more eco friendly and less harmful to humans than chemical pesticides, but it's also much cheaper. all the techniques taught in the are precisely resembled real life situations. the most, if learning is also cheaper than regular training, as there are no costs for transports, and accommodation become a reunion coupling expos company. so total also profits from well trained from us do what you can have the right equipment. but without the appropriate training, we won't be able to produce good colton. but then this education helps the farmers to improve the techniques and produce high quality called degree on the local to in order to be equipped for future challenges and to produce higher units on the quote and fields. more and more farmers in cameroon. once who participates in the virtual
6:23 am
training courses from peanut butter to frozen pizza? one product, that's in almost everything is palm oil. it has a great shelf life and can withstand being heated. but it's also very controversial for assessing. come down for palm or plantation which threatens animal species and c a we brief. now that doesn't solve very cool, frankly, does it? but palm roy actually requires much less the forest of area than rape seat or site . it just needs to be sustainable. how can we check with a new app from indonesia? for example, indonesia is by far the largest palm or producer in the world. more than $60000000.00 people here work as pharmacy, oil mill per, rates of trade us and in the food industry. it's a long supply chain, and for true sustainability, every step needs to be visits. once people buy from switzerland's co founded, quote, to you about to have a sense, he always knew. well,
6:24 am
that's the consistency of the software for the, for the, for the, for the 3 that it has to be a holistic end to end system. so it'd be delivered a platform which helps. i'll create inputs supply, it's farmers, and to all take it's the most up to the brand and verifying the data is key. to date, coach eva has registered more than a 120000 small hold up. com website. and patients in indonesia alone at each farmer has been interviewed by quote 2 of us though. so we have verification that the farm is not in protected folders, not involved in deforestation over the past 10 years. and that they do not exploit children tend to life. i don't have to talk today, coach eva has become a global company with 800 employees. its mission is to enable and ensure traceability at every stage of production, processing and sales. as more and more companies are looking to making the supply
6:25 am
chain small and transparent. often the context starts with a multinational company of brands coming to us. okay, please help us to my power supply chain. that's a concept based tech company diversified. it's portfolio these days. it doesn't just cover palm or supply chains, but also the more than 1000000 producers of over 50 different raw materials from across the globe. with also signed on. there are many apps for capital breed us. farmers can use these to access data on the live stock on their smartphones. did you call also has a chipped function, where they can check directly with veterinary ins to connect people also and let and america where in f helps farmers sell their products by connecting them directly with customers. so they can all the produce straight from the farmers.

many farms and columbia are located in remote areas, so transporting produce can be difficult, and small farmers don't have as many options for selling the crops, which makes it harder to own a fair and stable income. you regarding the incoming load. i'm also going to change this with the platform see and buckle. 6 when we saw on the product, the values and challenges that is more of a scale farmers face it, we started to develop a solution and dig around solution for the farmers. and i mean, i mean, we think about near to start planting in which we can coordinate farmers and customize before branding. customers can all the produce directly from the pharmacy and can now also choose how many plans should be growing for them. the props can be delivered to them, but they can also be sold or donated some of the start up isn't stopping as being
6:27 am
a direct markets of 2600 small scale farming families live in columbia. and what tamala, the cool would like to see them profit from information and insights available on the platform. we use a i in different areas and then watching 1st and not logistics. we use a platform that use a i to do or the deliveries in the various way. and we also use a i to give support to our farmers. i mean, we process the typically 3 months. so a platform and as our technical support can div information to the farmers, more dates, so i can hopefully meet 2 bits across these days. see amber cool, also delivers to restaurant chains and companies. the aim is to make the small kids more assessable to small scale from us to now is the moment thing to mean technology and really closer. because we need to ring go pertaining

to the feeder to martin. great new generation working in the cups. 6 it's impressive how many support tools available for farmers these days. in the end there is no plan to be right. so we have to find ways to grow foods and protect our planets by changing our diets, at least a little and supporting these funding projects. each one of us can contribute to a healthy, a well sustainable future. that's all for me. things and see you next time. the what is it like growing up swamped by torres color scheme such as
