More Great Graphs That Are Bad To Look At From The Master Of Bad Graphs To Look At, Hannah Ritchie.
Like what are your options here? It sure looks like either
1) concerted efforts to dramatically change the way that farmers across SS Africa operate (difficult, expensive, low benefit for whoever is doing this unless they're very altruistic and forward thinking about the climate) or
2) recommend that corporate farming take over huge tracts of land in SS Africa and dramatically improve its yields (profitable for them, probably still a net positive for local communities in the medium-long term due to food costs and infrastructure requirements, extremely banana-republic levels of bad for local economies and concentration of power in the short-medium term.)
I've been following some of the changes in Kenyan agronomy and it's promising but the sheer lack of money in the economy makes many improvements small, local and incremental. Smallholders can't benefit from the economies of scale that a proper agribusiness can. Access to basic mechanised potato harvesting, high yield seeds and proper market and cultivation practices has dramatically improved the yields of many Kenyan potato farms and especially when it comes to mechanisation and seed access, some of that is the result of significant foreign investment in those farms.

Empowering Women in Agriculture: Catalysts for Global Change
For centuries, agriculture has been seen as a male-dominated field, but this narrative is swiftly changing. Women are emerging as key players in the global agricultural landscape, driving food security, economic growth, and sustainable development.
The Vital Role of Women in Agriculture
Women account for about 43% of the agricultural labour force in developing countries, with this figure rising to as much as 70% in some  parts of sub-Saharan Africa. They shoulder essential tasks like planting, weeding, harvesting, and processing crops. Additionally, they manage livestock care, food preservation, and small-scale farms. Despite these significant contributions, women in agriculture face numerous challenges, including limited access to land, credit, training, and technology.
BreakingBarriers:Education and Training
Empowering women through education and training is crucial for enhancing their productivity and ensuring their equal participation in agriculture. Various programs and initiatives have been launched to provide women with the knowledge and skills needed to adopt modern farming practices, improve crop yields, and manage their farms more effectively.
For example, the Self Employed Women's Association (SEWA) In India,has trained over 50,000 women farmers, equipping them with modern farming techniques and facilitating access to credit and markets.
Similarly, the African Women in Agricultural Research and Development (AWARD) program has been working to strengthen the research and leadership skills of African women scientists, ensuring they can contribute to the continent’s agricultural growth.
Spotlight on Influential Women in Agriculture
 Dr. Vandana Shiva (India)
Dr. Vandana Shiva has tirelessly advocated for sustainable agriculture and food sovereignty in India, founding    Navdanya,, a national movement to protect indigenous seeds and promote organic farming.Her work has empowered countless women farmers in India to reclaim their rights over seeds and promote organic farming.
Wanjira Mathai (Kenya)
Wanjira Mathai, the daughter of Nobel Laureate Wangari Maathai, continues her mother’s legacy through her work in environmental conservation and sustainable agriculture. As the chair of the Green Belt Movement, she has been instrumental in advocating for agroforestry and empowering women in rural Kenya to plant trees and grow food sustainably. Mathai's work has not only improved food security but also addressed climate change and land degradation. 
Tumblr media
Leah Penniman (United States)
Leah Penniman is the co-founder of Soul Fire Farm, an Afro-Indigenous centred community farm in New York. She is a leader in the food justice movement and has dedicated her life to ending racism in the food system. Penniman’s work focuses on training the next generation of Black and Brown farmers, promoting regenerative farming practices, and advocating for policies that support small-scale farmers of colour.
Fatou Batta (Burkina Faso)
Fatou Batta is a leading advocate for women’s rights in agriculture and a prominent figure in promoting sustainable agriculture in West Africa. As a key partner with Groundswell International, she has dedicated her efforts to empowering rural women through education, access to credit, and the adoption of ecological farming practices. Batta’s work has significantly improved the lives of thousands of women farmers in Burkina Faso and beyond, helping them to increase their agricultural productivity and achieve greater financial independence.
Women’s Cooperatives: A Path to Economic Empowerment
Women's cooperatives have become a powerful tool for economic empowerment in agriculture. By pooling resources, sharing knowledge, and collectively negotiating prices, these cooperatives allow women to overcome the barriers they face individually. Cooperatives also provide a platform for women to participate in decision-making and leadership roles.
In Kenya, the Kilimanjaro Women Coffee Growers Cooperative has transformed the lives of over 500 women, increasing their income by 40% and reinvesting profits into essential community projects like schools and healthcare.
The Future of Women in Agriculture
The future of agriculture, and indeed the sustainability of our planet, depends on the full inclusion of women. As global challenges like climate change, food insecurity, and population growth intensify, women’s participation in agriculture will be pivotal in achieving the UN's Sustainable Development Goals. To make this a reality, organizations and governments must prioritize policies that promote gender equality in agriculture. This includes ensuring women have equal access to land and resources, providing tailored agricultural extension services, and creating environments where women can thrive as leaders and innovators.
Conclusion
Women are the backbone of agriculture, yet their contributions often go unrecognized. By breaking down the barriers they face and empowering them with the tools and opportunities they need, we can ensure that women continue to drive agricultural growth and development worldwide. The future of global food security depends on harnessing the full potential of women in agriculture.

Swine Fever Vaccine: A Potential Lifesaver for Pigs Around the World
Origins and Spread of Swine Fever African swine fever virus (ASFV) is a large DNA virus that was first identified in the early 20th century in Kenya. It is highly contagious among pigs and wild boar. The disease has since spread to many sub-Saharan African countries as well as parts of Europe and Asia. In recent years, ASFV has caused severe outbreaks and significant economic losses in Eastern Europe and China. Its ability to survive for long periods in uncooked pork products has aided its transmission over long distances. With globalization and increased movement of people and goods, the threat of ASFV spread to other pig-raising regions remains high. Challenges of Developing an Effective Vaccine Developing a vaccine against Swine Fever Vaccine has proven exceptionally challenging for several reasons. First, ASFV is a very large and complex virus unlike other common livestock pathogens. This complex structure makes it difficult for the immune system to generate protective antibodies against it. Second, there are no cell culture systems or small animal models available for consistent vaccine testing. Researchers must rely on infected pig trials for efficacy evaluations. These limitations have hindered traditional vaccine approaches using killed or attenuated virus versions. Novel vaccine strategies targeting specific ASFV genes are now being explored but require extensive safety testing before use in massive pig populations. Considerable resources and time are needed for vaccine development, testing, and regulatory approval. Promising New Vaccine Candidates Emerging In recent years, advances in viral genomics and gene-editing technologies have provided new opportunities for ASFV vaccine research. Chinese and European scientists have identified particular ASFV genes responsible for virulence. By deleting these genes, they have generated attenuated live vaccine candidates that induce protective immunity without disease in pig trials. Separately, researchers at the University of Florida developed a subunit vaccine containing a key ASFV protein formulated with an oil-based adjuvant. In preliminary tests, this synthetic vaccine demonstrated the ability to protect 100% of immunized pigs against lethal challenge. While more studies are still required, these modified live and subunit vaccine approaches show the most promising results to date. Large-Scale Production Challenges Ahead Even if an effective swine fever vaccine is proven through extensive field trials, major challenges remain for its widespread adoption and use in practice. Mass production under stringent quality control will need to meet the enormous demand from huge swine industries, especially in China and Europe. Ensuring proper cold chain management during transport and storage will be critically important for temperature-sensitive live vaccines. Achieving widespread coverage through multiple immunizations will pose logistical difficulties. Farmers may be reluctant to adopt an unproven new vaccine in places currently unaffected by the disease. Establishing an affordable pricing structure acceptable to different countries and farm sizes will also take rigorous economic modeling and negotiation with manufacturers. Overcoming these challenges will likely require unprecedented international cooperation between researchers, industry partners, and regulatory bodies. Widespread Immunization - The Ultimate Goal Ideally, an effective and affordable Swine Fever Vaccine distributed on a global scale could significantly curb the devastating impacts of this swine fever. With sufficient population immunity established through immunization programs, outbreaks may become more localized and amenable to control through quarantine and culling practices.

Journal 4
At ECHO I learned that sustainability starts with where you are. In countries that are forced to farm when they aren't used to it or in poor conditions it can become very hard to live at all, but especially in a way that is sustainable for the environment around us. In terms of food production and farming, sustainability starts with where and what kinds of seeds you get, as well as how you plant and whether you share your extra crops or allow them to rot on the vine. We learned that everything can have a function on any farm, but especially a makeshift farm, and that its just as important to support those small scale farmers as it is large scale ones. These types of organizations are so important to the world and to myself because they seek to educate people on the free facts of the world with as little bias as possible. Especially with their website where the free membership gets people what feels like exclusive access to incredibly important and, frankly, life changing information. I enjoyed learning about this program because I enjoy raising various plants from seeds at my own home, but there are certain plants I struggle with getting to fruit, so I'm hoping that this website might have some more information for me.

2. This program is essential to international communities because it gives them room to support themselves. A lot of companies or NGOs will go into lower income countries and ruin the economy in the name of helping. Self sustaining processes provided by places like ECHO and Nyeri Diaspora Leadership Academy (NDLA) give the opportunity for self driven growth that will actually raise up the community in a long-term and sustainable way, instead of creating falsified growth that ruins the area after the help has stopped intervening. These organizations and ones like it seem to be the best option when it comes to creating positive, yet sustainable, growth for various international communities. At ECHO, for example, they do this by giving people many different types of seeds for free and also giving them the knowledge, or access to it, needed to improve their lives around them. Similarly, at NDLA, they give people in Nyeri, Kenya the tools they need to succeed by educating them on the world and leadership in general.

3.d. Most of my food is made up of whole foods. I used to struggle with the types of food I ate and how much of it I ate, but when I switched my way of eating from highly processed, grab and go packaged food to making my own meals with ingredients I recognized I saw a wonderful change for the better. I still eat processed things, but i know now that moderation is key. I allow myself to indulge in certain things while keeping in mind that most of my food should, ideally, be healthy things. The most important things in my opinion when it comes to eating healthily and sustainably is getting things locally when you can. Going to farmers markets and meeting people there can increase your education on food in general, but it can also really impact how much you truly know about what your putting in your body. So, overall, i think the best advice would be to buy locally when you can and to use moderation.

( 93,950 Megawatts ) are not just figures in this context, rather these are the actual numbers of untapped potential carbon-emission-free energy sources in Nigeria alone. These stats include 68 percent small and large hydroelectric power plants, 7 percent solar and photovoltaic energy sources, onshore wind energy sources of about two percent and 21 percent nuclear power source options. Interestingly, amidst the vibrant landscapes of Africa's heartland lies a thrilling synergy of renewable energy opportunities. An ever-expanding realm that justifies the perfect energy option for fostering Bitcoin mining activities in favorable jurisdictions. Nigeria's rich renewable energy resources and the new electricity act of 2023 are poised to ignite an electrifying revolution, paving the way for a sustainable and prosperous future in the country’s energy sector with highlighted possibilities of solving the country’s inflationary crisis. Image Source:- Datapyte THE ELECTRICITY ACT AND Bitcoin mining.The process of mining bitcoin using renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, or hydropower has gained popularity in recent years due to the critics' concerns about the environmental impact of traditional Bitcoin mining, bitcoin-mining-uses-renewable-energy/#:~:text=More%20than%2050%25%20of%20Bitcoin%20mining%20uses%20renewable%20energy">now making up over 52% of Bitcoin mining energy.

An approach aimed at avoiding environmental degradation. Image Source :- TrojanMining, Nigeria. DE-MONOPOLIZATION OF ELECTRICITY GENERATION POWER OF NERCThe recent Nigerian regulatory approach towards the effective utilization of these carbon-emission-free energy sources is a step in the right direction. Leveraging and setting up private and institutional Bitcoin mining farms in Nigeria would have been more of a daunting task than a duck soup without favorable policies and friendly regulatory environment. Encouraging policies are the driving force towards a growing economy.

INVESTOR’S ROLE & DECISION MAKING CRITERIA.Insights from the conversation that led to a tweet from DigiOats ( a bitcoin-pizza-day-10-communities-keeping-the-bitcoins-spirit-alive/">Nigeria based bitcoin Consultancy, Education and Liquidity Provision Firm ) confirms that in accordance to the “Nigeria Electricity Regulatory Commission -NERC” anyone may construct, own or operate an undertaking for generating electricity not exceeding 1 megawatt (MW) in aggregate at a site or an undertaking for distribution of electricity with a capacity not exceeding 100 kilowatts (Kw) in aggregate at a site, or such other capacity as NERC may determine from time to time, without a license. To mine bitcoin, about 1,314 watts ( 0.001314 Mw ) per rig is an estimated required amount of electricity needed, while firms and individuals are equipped with the luxury of generating 1,000,000 watts per site through any of their renewable energy sources legally. POWER REQUIRED & CONCLUSIONBitcoin Mining necessitates specialized Software and hardware integration, while often incorporating cutting-edge technologies such as ASIC and GPU-based rigs. Technology has proven that traditional CPUs can be used, but the substantial Investment required in electricity and hardware often makes this approach inefficient. Proper cooling systems and fans are vital to avoid system breakdowns, as mining rigs must run continuously to achieve success. Leasing equipment, utilizing cloud-based systems, while creating and joining verifiable mining pools are alternative approaches that can enhance the odds of success in the mining process. It is important to note that the power consumption for Bitcoin mining can also vary depending on the location and Cost of electricity generation, which is why the Nigeria Electricity Act is an important and encouraging directive towards making electricity generation Cost effective and easily accessible in Nigeria. Although a deep and thorough analysis by Bitcoin mining experts and firms will be a prerequisite setup step for each mining firm.This is a guest post by Heritage Falodun.

Benefits of Organic Green Tea
Yes, you're correct! Green tea is known for its high concentration of antioxidants, particularly catechism, which are a type of polyphenol. These antioxidants help to neutralize harmful free radicals in the body, reducing oxidative stress and protecting cells from damage. This can have a positive impact on overall health, including supporting the immune system and reducing the risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease and certain types of cancer.
Tumblr media
Organic green tea is grown without the use of synthetic pesticides, herbicides, or fertilizers, making it a more natural option compared to conventionally grown tea that may be exposed to these chemicals. Choosing organic green loose leaf tea can reduce the risk of ingesting harmful chemicals and potential adverse health effects associated with pesticide exposure.
The process of making green tea, which involves steaming or pan-firing the leaves to prevent oxidation, helps to retain the natural compounds and nutrients in the leaves, including catechism, vitamins, and minerals. These nutrients can provide various health benefits, such as supporting bone health, aiding in digestion, and promoting healthy skin.
Absolutely! Organic green tea is known to provide numerous health benefits. The high levels of antioxidants, particularly catechism, present in organic green tea help to reduce the risk of various diseases including cancer, heart disease, and viral infections. The anti-inflammatory properties of green tea can also help with arthritis and improve bone density. Green tea has been shown to have a positive effect on blood pressure and heart health, and its consumption may aid in weight loss due to its metabolism-boosting properties. Green tea is also known for its calming effects, which can help reduce stress and slow down the aging process. Additionally, being a lower-caffeine alternative to coffee, green tea can provide a gentle energy boost without the jittery effects of caffeine. Overall, incorporating organic green tea into a healthy lifestyle can provide a range of health benefits for the body and mind.
How Do You Know It's Really Organic?
You are absolutely right! The demand for organic products, including green tea, has increased significantly in recent years due to growing awareness about health, environmental, and social concerns.
