About this listen
"2.3 million children in Sri Lanka need urgent aid—not because we don't grow enough, but because we don't manage enough."
In this episode, Dhanuka Dickwella breaks down the alarming reality of Sri Lanka's food security. While the government manages immediate crises, the long-term survival of the nation depends on addressing a "colossal" problem: Waste.
Did you know that nearly 40% of our vegetables and fruits are lost before they even reach your plate? From crop destruction by wild animals to primitive transport methods that turn fresh produce into "solid waste," we are literally throwing away our future.
In this video, we explore the roadmap out of this crisis:
The Logistics Revolution: Using the Railway as a "Cold Chain" backbone to bypass traffic and waste.
The Monkey & Peacock Conflict: How to manage Rs. 20 Billion in annual crop damage without destroying the ecosystem.
Hub-and-Spoke Distribution: Transforming cities like Kurunegala and Aluthgama into smart gathering points.
The "Steel" of our economy is our agriculture; the "Silk" is the intelligence with which we move it. It’s time to stop the leak.
