Nigeria and todays program will pay a visit to could do well but that story on Drone Technology revolutionizing farming i dont want to talk go to visit a company that is trying to tackle the countrys mountains of trash finally with over to germany to look at the business of bees and how important they are. I hope that wakes you up or type for whats coming up on the program now lets head 1st to cote divoire just one of many countries across africa where salt degradation and extreme weather conditions mean have a star declining so its all the more importance to make the best use of resources and optimize farming practices and to Abacha Kareem and his drawings they help the young are gonna miss to watch over unimproved crops out in the field and ive always believed that the technology can help to lead his country into a more bountiful future. Oh. These tomato plantation is morny tugh no thanks from one cause by theodore over an area the size of a small football pitch east of the border and point c t v. The drone idea was launched by a local startup set up way of about. He wants to use the new Surveillance Technology to make to National Farming move the t. V. And movies sustainable and. Fastened by example lets say a plot of land has an irrigation problem on one of its 5 fact is that something you cant make out with your own eyes but a drone can identify the area in question and that makes it easier to resolve the problem and at the same time increase you know you have to say no you know that youre in i mean really look after us. Thing off the draw news is its come over to create Digital Aerial mops these are entirely computer dumb on the ground to detect larry to use or other issues on plantations its part of a new i. T. Assisted form of farming called position agriculture. Everything. This. Means that we can use the technology to determine exactly where plants are being affected by a disease and instead of treating an entire person off land we can focus on the specific area actually affected. His urine sure for sure path if youre doing it thats also good for the environment fewer pesticides mean healthier soil unless pollution on plantations. From a fungus and what began walking together with the startup about a year ago in addition to the environmental aspect he also sees another crucial advantage for his countrys agricultural industry. We have a lot of land and a lot of options for expanding off our land but its physically demanding market and very tricky to implement which has put a lot of people off farming but this technology is extremely efficient and it can also tend to people back to farming. Much of the deforestation is done to provide space for luge new plantations ivory cost is the biggest cocoa producer in africa according to figures from the wild bank over the last half a century ivory coast has lost around 80 percent of its forests. Only buys of course that we are fighting deforestation a lot of farmers think they need to 20 i thought in order to ensure because of esther but we showed them how they can get similar with one hectare or just 5000. 00 square metres a little later the 2nd drawing is ready to take to the skies it has almost 10 liters of liquid best to say than board which will be applied exactly where it is needed. Deploying drones also prevents damage to the plants roots from the heavy farming machines normally used. I reckon the one with one drawn you can spray 2 hacked as in under 12 minutes with conventional means youd need an entire day to cover one or 2 hectares of. He now has a dozen strong team of prominent stuff out on 40 customers already using their phones Digital Solution although attracting a clientele wasnt easy at fast. Youre going to hear the farming sector has been around for a long time i wonder when new technologies are introduced its decks are wide for people to be convinced of the benefits with a cost of being a major fatah money timing from seed to harvest costs between food and 8000. 00 euros which for many families initially seems a big but to the startups clinton now extending 2000000. 00 send a gun that drones would be touching down father a food too. Lets stick with agriculture for the moment another major danger for Food Production where have all the bees got any answers so ill go well near experts say a number of things because i thought it to the bees it usurped in many parts of the world among them one of cultures pesticides on the Climate Crisis without these pollinators farmers will suffer along with entirely ecosystems some enterprising us in germany has come up with some clever ideas on how to get these buzzing. A company that aims to get bees to where theyre needed and fungus or thought was it wasnt easy to wimp people over we were total strangers walking up to be keepers saying we want to be as many were skeptical on. But it soon caught on one beekeeper has let neils gabber take a 100 of his hives to this auction in northern germany to pollinate apple trees gather lands out beehives to farmers throughout germany its his contribution to the fight to stop economies collapsing whenever farmers need bees to pollinate their crops they can go to his website an algorithm that matches each farmers need with the available hives this option owner ordered 100. 00 high the bees only show up if the conditions are right the feeling. Has just sides are an issue which has to be addressed openly. So that means weve agreed to only use products that dont harm be. Things which dont harm beneficial creatures and weve shifted some tasks to the evening hours so we dont hamper the bees activities. Been focused the population suffer from urban encroachments epidemics and agricultural monocultures so in effect. It initiatives Companies Like b hero are developing Technological Solutions to help the market. Dependency of bees is huge were talking about hundreds of of billions of dollars so that was genetically. Change in order to not be dependent on people the nation actually can grow better if we could be using the field so saw is also a very interesting market for us peace get agitated when they keep it is make their presence felt so its a good idea to leave them in peace for days on end but back to can be risky if the queen the whole colony can die. This is our product it has sensors inside. Multiple sensors and we just put it inside the hive in the main kong and it just we put it inside and it morning towards the hive 247 then we take this there are we are loaded to the to the cloud and then to our algorithms and we are able to understand whats going on in the hive. But the hero will still need to develop the rescue system further before its fully ready to go. Unlike neils gabber the german businessman has already found his niche. The sharing Services Cost fruit farm workers elders downman 6000. 00 euros a quarter of which goes to the company. Were very fortunate that our land is quite some way away from other orchards. So we decided to try out this pollination service. And i must say its gone very well but the travelling be spend 2 weeks here after that their work is complete and they can return home. With. The sharing harnesses the resources of small scale beekeepers across germany to maintain and promote key services to farming and its important work without babies thered be no pollination and no biodiversity. In many operations countries that are experiencing economy growth woman populations. Of the nation west money is almost gone into a major ongoing problem the amount of stuff produced by our visibility to recycle repulses or even properly disposed of but lucky for all of us this to plenty of people ready to take the challenge to the top of the company africas local recycling hes a true false and again hes making up profits recycling sorting and reselling west to asia and europe. This Printing Press runs almost nonstop silly death freak son of africa is one of the busiest printing houses in law may the capital of tokyo. But what about the paper waste the printing how its used to just dump it somewhere where waste collectors would come by ok shortly and charge to take it away. Now its the other way around the african Global Recycling company regularly picks up the old paper and even pays for us. From his orders it was embarrassing to see the waste pile up in our print shop collects it now and gives us money for it and that money goes towards paying for ink and other things it helps a lot. More than everybody added facility in low made african Global Recycling receives about 350. 00 tons of waste a month from businesses schools and government offices. The paper is weighed and those who produce the waste. Get one or one of the hot euro cents per kilo it may not sound like much but it all adds up. Founded a. G. R. In 2013 after working in recycling in europe. His vision goes far beyond just recycling. Is a great opportunity for development on the african continent corporate informal market theres also a social aspect because we offer employment to people who didnt complete their schooling or learn a trade we train them for. Life shaping is a private school in may 1 of 40 schools where a. D. R. Has installed recycling bins for metal paper and plastic the pupils have been taught to separate the trash. Lets see the plastic and the paper will be transformed into a new thing thats why we put it here and the bins so it can all be recycled before. Says he says. The schools collaboration with the recycling Company Brings in money which it can spend on say teaching materials. Its also a way of teaching the kids to take care of the environment with sorting trash is like a game for the kids thats the main motivation for them especially for the little ones so. When the bins are full the school calls the company and a team comes to collect the trash. The children evidently find the whole process interesting and has a Ripple Effect because all the kids talk about it at home and help make the parents more aware of the issues. Once a parent told me they had started to recycle at home to another parent called me and asked if we could come in collect their old magazines and newspapers. A. G. R. Thoughts and cleans the waste it collects on sells a lot of it to money factories in europe. They transform paper into cardboard and glass into a new bottle for example. I sell 80 or 90 percent of my recycled african waste in europe because thats well sorted and fulfills International Standards and so for a european recyclers my materials are as good as or maybe even better than those collected on their continent. Sorted cleaned and packed the waste is ready to be transported over seas its raw material for new and useful objects. These wicks doing of it also deals with plastic in this gas plastic collection the dome and you cant which means ocean child is convinced that all of us can do all of these to clear all streets forests and waterways of rubbish a recent project initiative by the german environmental activists is in cooperation with 2 schools on the tiles on an island off. Zanzibar an island off the coast of tens india has beautiful beaches and a major problem with plastic trash. But kids from 2 schools are now collecting old plastic bottles the project was started by the n. G. O. Kand an organization that was founded by mcqueen and built from germany. The ferry these huge amounts of it scared me of elected by the kansas shock. Wife and kids find to live their life. Shows that when you take action check your patience keep. The kids also tell their friends and families that plastic spoils the environment. A recycling company pays the schools 0. 08 a kilo for the plastic. And i dont think im lying hussein by and i think collecting plastic is a good project. But it brings in money to pay for new school books that are not but that wasnt enough. Votes young can supports clean up projects in over 30 countries. And how about you. If youre also doing your bit tell us about it visit our website or send us a tweet hash tag doing your bit.

And they call out to notify the other. Was. For this group of habits weighted animals its not to 1st contact with tourists ok. Still they could be dangerous so visitors have to follow the rules like maintaining a distance of at least 8 me says. Ok. Chimpanzees eat on scent termites but also fruits and even meat. They are fairly safe in key bali because the local people benefit from their being protected. 20 percent of the pac entry and all the fees goes to the local community.

What this is made of hardwood trees planted alongside the coffee trees and what that does is it provides its shade about 60 percent 6040 percent shade for the coffee and that creates this really high quality coffee big beans delicious delicious coffee beans 20 years ago goes a National Park was derelict as a result of the countrys devastating civil war rebel forces use the park as a base for their guerrilla war against the government even recent years have seen sporadic fighting but this summer the 2 sides signed a Peace Agreement now the government the pocket ministration and an ngo can focus on efforts to revive the park jordan thinks that the projects need for farmers will give rebels motivation to give up their weapons what weve seen is that hope is really transformative and people are really believing in it and thats why they keep coming back to us thats why they keep promoting it and we see that every year were on boarding more and more farm folk read about and cleaner the coffee has been a blessing the newly reforested plantations could also persuade many young people to stay in the region strengthening the coffee industry.
