Transcript

This might change how you think about the food you eat. Better day, farmers can face challenges that can impact their crops and devastate their livelihoods. In Odisha, India, 60% of people work in agriculture. To support farmers, the Odisha government, supported by the Gates Foundation, built a digital system for farmers to use anytime. So you know how airplanes rely on a control tower to give pilots the right information to safely take off and rank? This program operates in a similar way. They can call or text a toll free helpline and get real time information to address issues that could impact their crops, such as pests. The call center even sends messages to neighboring farmers to alert them to an infestation no they can prevent the spread. And better this, more than 8,000,000 farmers benefit from this system. And it works. There's been a 94 reduction in areas of crops affected by pests. It's a good reminder that there's a whole network of people and programs supporting farmers no they can keep producing the food that ends up on our tables.
