3. Bioremediation:
The soil web is a truly crucial aspect of human and animal life today. The food
chain has been destroyed leading to loss of biota that needs healthy soils and healthy
waters for nourishment. In our profit-dominated and subsistence agriculture the natural
biological quality is of less importance. The poor farmers fear loosing the crop, which
leads to too many pesticides being used. Research shows that essential vitamins are
increasingly lacking, health in the general population is deteriorating rapidly with a
percentage of severe diseases steadily growing.
Conclusion: The Center should operate In-House and Out-Reach Activities in order to
generate revenue; stimulate economic activity and demonstrate Local Self-Reliance.
Attainment of Household nutritional Food Security and economically viable Micro,
Small and Medium Enterprises should be the Goal.
