Forum e-Forum on ICTs and Open Data in Agriculture and Nutrition

What investments are needed to reap open data benefits and what measures must be adopted to protect farmers from open data?

Submitted by Demba N on Thu, 07/06/2017 - 19:09

Open Data is already here, acknowledging it's potential and how to use such remains a challenge... Structuring data, raw data on initial investments for the last three decades, left us an aggregate database requiring, to date, soft and selective investments on research based/proven data over marketability, usability and alike.

My actual interest and work remain in such areas of great interest to further widespread use of OD in Africa...
