Whos footing the bill for diesel gates here in germany it could be the taxpayer in a last ditch attempt to avoid adies obama. Also coming out of course a very marked ten years of independence we take a look at how europes newest countries trying to stabilize its economy. And germanys organic farmers are getting into mass production so can they stay true to their principles. Base is your Business Update on how that humphrey in berlin thanks for joining me and hows this for an idea to handle diesel gate instead of just the car industry coughing up how about taxpayers here in germany stumping up some of the cash to make vehicles compatible with emission standards that is the proposal from one of four expert groups mandated by the government to come up with a solution to avoid an all out these obeirne. This suggestion that german taxpayers should partake in any of the costs of upgrading dirty diesels has sparked consternation many people in germany believe its car makers responsibility to bear the entire cost of reducing emissions. But its unclear how far carmakers are willing to go forth for example still reeling from revelations achieved an emissions test has questioned the idea or perhaps more likely the expense of installing new hardware c. E. O. Saying we are in general ruling out Hardware Upgrades not only due to the effort that would be required but also because of questions over its effectiveness. Germany has come under increasing pressure from the e. U. To improve air quality the government is exploring a variety of measures to reduce pollution that with the image of the car industry already badly damaged the idea that taxpayers should bear any financial burden for dirty details is not going down well in many quarters. Of more on this lets bring in our financial correspondent whos in frankfurt for a start you here in germany i mean diesel has provided a little compensation for the car owners affected and now potentially it could be the taxpayer footing the bill i mean surely this must be going down very well for the car industry. Yeah it sounds like a really good deal for the carmakers and what im also hearing from investors that they are actually liking the idea because this at the end is going to mean less money that carmakers will have to spend and as a result we also saw most of the car maker shares actually going up but yet its a very controversial topic because many people also people who are not driving a diesel are saying well why do we have to pay with our taxes for the bad doing or for the wrong doing off the car industry is clear the industry is very much under pressure were expecting also a verdict happening next week on thursday in leipsic regarding a possible diesel ban in the city of to sold off well its a draft proposal and it certainly sounds like a hard sell danielle but its friday of course so wrap up the markets for us. Yet it was still a week with investors here being very nervous because of what happened last week on wall street when we saw this correction happening also when you look at todays trading day this really reflects what happened all of this week we are still dealing with a very volatile market on wednesday for example when we got consumer numbers we saw at the roots of index stocks here really dropping and then it recovered the dax will finish this week with a plus of about two point seven percent but there is still this fear of more Interest Rate hikes and possible inflation from the United States so most likely in next week this will be also very much of the focus off investors daniel cope first aid frank thank you. Now a Belgian Court has threatened facebook with a fine of up to one hundred Million Euros if it continues to break belgiums previous leader was by tracking people on Third Party Websites now Facebook Says it will appeal the ruling the court also ruled that the American Company must elite all data gathered illegally on belgian citizens including people who are not even facebook uses but the court said quote facebook informs us insufficiently about gathering information about the kind of data it collects and what it does with that data and how long it stores it for. On saturday kosovo marks ten years since it declared independence from serbia and economy is showing some solid growth g. D. P. Expanded by just under four percent it twenty seventeen as it did in the two previous years seven pounds to impart to remissions from abroad so that means that perhaps celebrations are not quite in order because europes newest country is also one of its poorest average income is still only around four hundred euros a month and cost of those chronic unemployment is stuck at above thirty percent now theres also a huge trade deficit for what is such a small country you can see it there in twenty sixteen kossovo imported goods worth two point eight billion euros but exported barely three hundred Million Euros worth of course was also struggling with weak infrastructure and no way can this be better seen than with its power supply but of course thats also an opportunity to move on to the latest technology and one Company Company hopes to lead the way. You know how solar is possible as first photovoltaics factory high quality solar panels are made here theyre designed for regions within ten sunlight like north africa and the middle east and while that might sound ideal for solar the desert heat is bad news for conventional panels their output is actually lower and they dont last long but not the panels made here we see the thirty year of life form of our products but for now kosovo is still coal powered it has vast deposits that could last for centuries. But coal burning comes at a price for one its bad for health. And about a quarter of the electricity that passes through kosovos antiquated grid is lost there are frequent Power Outages especially in winter thats bad for Economic Growth so authorities are looking to green energy to solve these problems. Production here began in june twenty sixth seen now the factory has one hundred employees the Company Hopes to head off a low cost competition from china with an emphasis on high quality. The chinese they have mass productions and we dont want to get involved in that we are a small country we have maybe a good potential on those standards and so we are we decided to become a quality factory yahoo is focusing on sales in neighboring countries where demand is high but it was even able to land a significant order on the turkish market the company is growing rapidly but competition is fierce. Were going to start it and they have the government say we will substantially this we will put funds we will raise funds for the Renewable Energy what are you could you read in your wall so they have a lot of potential. But for now the balkans are currently its most important market and initiative called ten thousand solar roofs is meant to give Renewable Energies a big push in kosovo solar is one of the sponsors. Now demand for organic foods thing growing for years and is especially popular here in germany wavin cut price supermarkets are getting in on the act but if consumers think the products always come from small adele it farms well perhaps they should think again i am on has led to mass production still organic farmers maintain there is a difference and that they are staying true to their principles. When temperatures drop below freezing the farmer rathod and spreads out a carpet of hay for his chickens. We put down the straw to coax out the chickens that way the birds feel more protected but you know they think. They prefer to stay close to the coop actually farm or out and once to lure them across the ice to the greener pasture the farther they roam the better its a real problem if the more than one thousand chickens only congregate in one place. The area around the chicken coop is contaminated with feces and parasites which can make them sick were not allowed to use preventative medicines like antibiotics when raising organic culturing so you have to think of ways to reduce the risk of disease thats why the mobile coop comes in handy. Every two weeks the farmer uses his tractor to move the coop that way the fields can recover and the chickens arent left scratching and pecking around in soggy soil. Everything looks good here if theyre running around and a lot of moisture or its really wet outside and theres no green grass that can irritate their feet which have been around for a long time but for about two years the company farm has been building large scale mobile coops that house up to Thirteen Hundred organic chickens the birds lay their eggs in shelf nest boxes then theyre collected on computer controlled conveyor belts like in larger barns but c. E. O. Fans vets hope doesnt want to build the mobile coops anymore. You can build anything but then its not really fully mobile anymore weve gotten away from the real purpose of having mobility. But it still pays automatic feeding into. Instead control makes his organic operation economically viable. By manual labor costs must be kept in check otherwise it isnt feasible and that unfortunately is a problem in the organic sector we have to maintain a certain level of efficiency just to keep the business going on my head all the way to problem thats why i didnt organic eggs const about ten to fifteen cents more than those from large scale organic operations folks that set you up say with the latest from the waldo business or more find us on facebook photos on twitter as well at the w on disco business on there as well have a messy home free is my handle on all be back in an hour to bring you the latest until then heres a real time check on the global markets.
