a couple of years ago we all go through
those midlife crises trying to
understand where exactly are we leading
to the same occurred to me and that’s
where I got into this subject called
farmer suicide and famine which was
actually hurting practically the entire
country took a small case study where a
small village between the states of
Karnataka and Tamil Nadu this particular
village was on severe drought and famine
our team went there and studied there
for practically around three three odd
months to find out what was driving them
to these extreme cases found out that it
was actually not famine after three
months of study and we say it was not
famine that is committing suicide the
story goes lettuce villages have
festivals and weddings happen where the
entire community the entire village
folks help a hand monitor Lee and in
terms of their resources what they don’t
foresee is death Death Comes which is
unplanned for that’s where they borrow
money and there are hawkers and bankers
included with high interest rates very
difficult to repay back even after full
successful crops they just cannot repay
back and one of these reasons main
reasons for these guys to actually
commit suicides we’re on high loans we
even try the matriarchal society where
the lady of the house controls the
finances that do was we can escape that
but not the loans through this process
is where I came across the subject
called hydroponics where we can grow
herbs and vegetables in conditions which
otherwise is impossible
for these guys for the livelihood to
happen that way
at amplicon hydro bloom started the one
of the main reasons which we saw was the
global warming and inconsistent seasons
we were looking out for an innovative
sustainable ecosystem hydroponics was
the answer
what is hydroponics simple steps it uses
very very less water why
what is recycled back into the system
when the plant requires the water we
have spurts of water which is played on
the roots for it to grow it requires
I’ve mentioned one for the space but we
have seen vertically grown eighteen to
twenty or dracs that means 20 x times
the growth this is a revolution which is
going to happen no soil used at all so
no contamination faster growth time
because of the nutrients which we add is
on a controlled mechanism we use
something called houmous and I am
recently testing out in our research lab
on deep sea nutrients absolutely no
pesticides no for no fertilizers used
and this is how the basic of hydroponics
work hydroponics is not new Hanging
Gardens of Babylon ages eons away used
to do hydroponic the the the Chinese
Gardens have been hydroponically grown
they grow these through these bamboo
shoots plants are grown where water is
recycled again and again where there is
minimal use of water global trends
surprisingly India’s not even scratch
the surface we have the entire European
nation which grows herbs and vegetables
18% of tomatoes grown in Australia grown
hydroponically what exactly is pollution
bangle
is the second largest polluter in terms
of a clear exhaust and that’s where we
came up with an idea if hydroponics can
be grown in terms of vegetables why
can’t we grow vertically on a pillars
and went back and studied someone called
dr. Waterman he had done a research on
the NASA clean s study what NASA Kalina
study does is you Elan musk is right now
doing the same where you can grow
vegetables and herbs in space so what he
had actually done is take a particular
product a seed grow it hydroponically
with recycled water with control
nutrients we have actually done a study
with the Mexico pillars where each
square meter generates at least a year
supply of oxygen per person removes 130
grams of particulates in the hair forty
tons of greenhouse gases and around 15
kgs of heavy metals these are huge these
this can actually wipe we can have
cleaner pure IMG Road if it has been
given us a chance it can also absorb
around 10 decibels of sound which
mitigates from these pillars this is by
the way owada study what dr. Walter men
also had done is we found out through
chemical way clear exhaust there is a
chemical called Zion which comes out
okay xylene has very harmful effects on
our body it causes mouth ulcers
dizziness heart problems liver kidney
damage and finally coma surprisingly
there are plants which absorb these
harmful chemicals and give out fresh
oxygen bingo we said why don’t we use
this on the pillars
and that’s what you see on MG Road it’s
working fine it’s still on the test
phases we are still having hurdles in
terms of the vertical the heights but
the successor are very promising on this
what I have also done is we have taken
the drought and the famine part to
another small town where for the cattle
was dying because of no father there is
a mixture of dry fodder and wet water
which we usually mix and give cattle now
since there is no land because of the
drought
yeah there’s no these guys are giving
away the cattle they said we can’t feed
the cattle hydroponic fodder machines is
the answer for this what it does is want
land I’m just giving you comparisons
between land and hydroponic for de land
grown on grass approximately takes 60
days hydroponically it only takes seven
days cycle around 10,000 square feet of
land can produce 72,000 kgs of green
fodder 50 square feet I’m just looking
at next to the cowshed 6×4 a small
little further machine can produce up to
three like 65 thousand kgs that’s the
kind of numbers which we are looking at
it can wipe out the entire famine in
that particular village so so it’s a
huge advantage and we are right now
doing a nationwide awareness program
there are many takers for this telangana
Street has adopted given government
subsidies for for the machines and the
place is pretty successful on that
particular thing there’s a small
instance there’s a small story I would
like to actually tell you of order
machine I visited a politician of in
North Karnataka
and he lost thrice in in his elections
he tried various means
he tried means of giving cycles books a
whole lot of incentives for these
farmers but nothing really really worked
out and that’s as usual as a sales pitch
I went and told him why don’t you try
out for the machine and that particular
village was in severe drought and we
told him why don’t you choose a a
panchayat head or a decision-making guy
who can use this machine if the farmer
likes it
let them adapt adopt this particular
part and take it round I had given this
machine this hydroponic machine and
three months down the line we went to
have one of my boys went to have a check
on this and sadly the machine wasn’t
even used and we went in again with my
flashy presentations and it said this is
a game changer this is what you require
they never bothered they were still
reeling under severe drought a small
child taking mustard seeds had dropped
it on one of our trays and started
sprinkling water and the sprouts are
forming that was done manually
ours is a complete automated machine and
that’s when one of the farmers said I’m
going to take up this challenge and grow
fodder on this and mind you it just took
two months they’ve removed all the
religious pictures in that in each of
these family houses and have actually
put this politicians photograph there
that there is an impact story which we
won’t actually showcase to the world and
say hydroponic is the future it has been
ranked by one of the leading magazines
as the next millennium business for the
next three decades so why why is so much
of hype on hydroponics and we still
haven’t scratched the surface I wonder
why
the other part which I we intend to do
in Bangalore is the last food mile with
growing pesticides and we don’t know
what the impurities are of what is
happening in what we eat we are coming
out with an auger with a hydroponic
farmers market very close to Bangalore
this would be certified of how pure of
what you consume you know exactly what
you eat so this is coming up in
Bangalore completely hydroponic er the
very farmers can actually sell their
produce there and you will be certain
that this is hydroponics okay there is
another topic which I would like to pick
why am I talking so much about
hydroponics when we are in we are living
in a world of organics I say organic is
a passe we are talking of Virgin of
virgins we are talking to the purest of
pure form and that’s hydroponics it’s a
highly highly debatable topic in us
there are code cases which are happening
to prove hydroponics as something
different but again matter of fact is
that you’re eating Virgin of virgins it
is the purest form so this is the future
which the world has to actually follow
and that’s the reason we are coming out
with this farmers market for Bangalore
ian’s to understand what they’re
actually consuming so there is a whole
lot of IOT tags which most of our
products are IOT base and we have got a
research lab coming out in in Bangalore
where we test hydroponic medicinal herbs
whenever we talk about hydroponic I
don’t know how many of you all have
divides in the subjects we we tend to
eat the West we talk about kale we talk
about their power foods we talk about
irregular rows Mary’s the times we have
forgotten India medicinal herbs the
Ayurvedic herbs it can cure practically
all the basic diseases what we have
hypertension obesity diabetics
cancer cells your simple coffin cold so
what we are right now doing is through
our research lab in Bangalore we are
testing out these medicinal herbs and
promoting these penderson loves which
are known hydroponically so that’s what
I keep saying – most of my talks that we
have walk walking in nature with nature
where we can actually witness a thousand
miracles which is so so true we hardly
realize these miracles are around us so
there is there should be an awareness
program which we are actually bringing
out in terms of promoting our own Indian
medicinal herbs what’s triple
bottom-line
most of the companies talk about profits
as they mean goal companies that sustain
for a long long time require three
things it requires people
it requires environment and then it also
requires profit we hardly take the other
two into consideration we have seen
enough and more meltdowns which has
happened down so what
I’m not taking company per se what we
are doing is take individual take
company and the government and then put
these three circles together all in in
all our acts if we have this we can have
a sustained long-term ecosystem which
can actually contain for the next
thousand odd years otherwise we are a
loss feed last but not the least a very
powerful Mexican proverb which I would
like to leave you alone they try to bury
us they didn’t know beware seeds thank
you guys
