that is lost are. like diminished by the majority of small farmers in india are forced to through a very some of their crops because they don't have any means to cool them more than 30 percent of the country's agricultural produce goes to waste every year. that amounts to a loss of over 11000000000 euros. that's what she. wants to remedy the problem last year the social entrepreneur started working with local farmers like the women farmers federation in. the overarching issue that we found on our own because our experiences supply chain especially in horticulture force one marginal formosa's their tendency to just sell of the produce the same day that they harvest in some cases they're going to harvest produce that was ripe and ready in the feed on the because they were not getting any price for that. so one of the key elements was we. had the farm gate. neither is my daughter founded his own company. with the help of the women farmers federation he installed a cold storage in concord in mid september 21000 and began educating the farmers on how to use it a lot of. after studying the cultivation and harvesting patterns of the region it was decided how much gold storage the village required now it can refrigerated up to $4000.00 kilos of produce at a time the farmers have been able to increase their income by around 30 percent. before they were kind of selling it by the wayside group site all of that now they were going to get to collect a good though on a day so new to the market the next day or after a couple of days when they see the prices

to back the crops carefully in large baskets and load them onto a truck. now because of the coal storage facility we can keep our produce for longer. we don't necessarily have to take it to the market every day and. we've definitely benefited from this. oh you know our produce used to go bad. but now we can easily keep it in here for van or 2 days. this has made a huge difference. on days when the going rate at the market is low we can store it in here and sell a produce when the read has big. then. this business in family home. group solar panels supplied the facility with free like the city good crop owns it and the farmers pig went to the firm gets a return after 2 years. the farmers learn how to regulate the temperature of the storage. different produce have different kind of storage temperature and if they want to store it for longer duration than they need to adhere to that particular temperature and humidity range that any historical and that. based interface allows them to do the cold storage and the sorting for like 34 days there's an average temperature of which is good for all kinds of produce being stored with it has been . the form now has toting operational cold storage in india the company charges farmers a maximum of one euro cent per day to refereed to produce the exact amount depends on how frequently do you use the facility and how much your store. 45

when the arable land we have access to is diminishing every day open farming is gaining more and more traction because of this what it often can't produce to ski because of a lack of space are inadequate access to light a life company in the netherlands is experimenting to replace sunlight with the lights in indoor greenhouses let's see how. the earth is home to some 7600000000 people the majority live in cities green spaces are shrinking. how viable an option is in farming for example green houses led by. even in buildings without sunlight. any d. light bulbs provide illumination by day and night and the plants compete harvested at any time of the year. becoming standard lighting solutions in greenhouses. undergoing testing here in the netherlands in the laboratory of a signify it's europe's biggest lighting manufacturer and a spinoff of dutch technology giant philips so far the company has equipped around $1000.00 greenhouses with systems we have 4 dollars inside so it's red it's blue it's why then it's far out at a far it is typically pretty are known to us because it's outside of our licensed a bigger. indoor farming is a market with huge potential. and the l.e.d. lights help to guarantee predictable and controllable harvests. so what you see over here is a dynamic light fixture that can change in color and by changing the color during the trial or just before the end of it just before harvesting we can for example influence the bricks value of. the sweetness of the strawberry but also make it a little bit more hardy or let's say so that it's better to transport. the company calculates the particular light fixture its customers need and savings can be achieved by just using red and blue light which produces the magenta color here. the mix depends on the plants and the ambient light greenhouses in siberia for example has less sunlight than those in spain. their market is growing super fast and if you look at the different reports that are out in the market you see a real trend that are becoming more interesting also it's not because they don't make money that companies like are growing fast in russia with by 25 factors and 25 factors it's around 400 kilometers of l.e.d. lights and that was the biggest project we did to date. another customer that has bought the lighting systems is the dutch tomato farm didn't pater's its greenhouses measure 16 hector has an area amounting to something like 20 soccer pitches. the crops are aluminum a 2 by magenta any delight from below and from above by high intensity high pressure sodium or h.p.'s lamps the company has invested millions the tomato vines grow to an amazing height of 6 metres the growers need lifts to reach the tops using the l.e.d. lights the company can achieve larger and more constant harvests than without the lighting. we have the positioning of the in the middle of the crop. research. the idea must be about 80 centimeters to one metre. below the top of the plant because the top of the plant is infected by the b.s. lining and daylight. and one metre below the effect of the daylight. is gone. tomatoes are perishable they can't be easily transported in container ships from far away countries. but they can be easily grown in greenhouses. thanks to the l.e.d. lights they can harvest more 20 tons per week even in the middle of winter. very sweet. and what's important is that the taste. stays in your mouth for a longer time so this not only the place is gone immediately. with a certain bite of the tomato. of course lighting the plants all year around uses up lots of energy as does the heating via the pipes that run between the plants on the floor to generate it the company maintains a gas fired power plant and that highlights a major disadvantage of this kind of farming the energy cost of producing artificial sunlight outdoor farmers at the sun for free. we often notice that on the one hand there is an abundance of food thanks to the many innovations in the agricultural sector but on the other hand medians of people go to bed hungry every night i recall heat of this week has been working towards channeling excess food in the city of

minimize waste he uses every part of a vegetable that can be eaten and compost organic waste and he takes other steps as well. but the best actually the best ways through portioning are used to serve big questions about dishes and a lot was wasted so we decided to downsize all portions. modernize where lho was involved in the project run by melody mello reich she often explains to chefs how wasting food is bad for the climate. when you have full days and the end up in landfills they came naturally and the produce more potent greenhouse gas in the form of methane which is more than 20

banks to the needy. for no though huge amounts of discarded food still end up in a dump in the district of pions us waste pickers here look for things of value in the garbage. for live abida usually find some food that looks at a bowl she started working as a waste picker 2 years ago after her husband died the burden of feeding the family fell completely on her shoulders. the 1st thing she does with the chicken she retrieved from the refuse is boil it to kill the bacteria. then she fries it with onions and serves it to her children and grandchildren or suffer . a little. here you either have work or you don't share it would be better not to have to eat this but it's this or nothing. life start. her family will probably have to continue living off discarded food but receiving it from a food bank would certainly be better than pulling it out of a pile of garbage. she says bolting stench is something you never get used to. conventional patterns of production are changing rapidly due
