Asia Insight - Season 5 - Eps 4: Farming in a Freezing Climate
In the harsh Mongolian winter, temperatures can reach 40℃ below zero, an impossible climate for cultivating fruits and vegetables. To meet the growing demand from consumers for fresh domestically grown produce, the government recently initiated a winter-greenhouse scheme to support farmers who want to grow all year round. We follow the tentative efforts of the Mongolian farmers who are hoping to benefit from this innovative project.
