Thrilled to hear it!<div><br></div><div>I know it is easier said than done (what with all the vested interests one may have to contend with) but partnering with the co-op movement would help these innovations get to the grassroots fast. This is of course assuming the price is affordable and the technology sturdy enough for our environment. I wonder of the Ministry of Cooperatives is actively looking at these innovations with a view to implementing them.<div>
