Dear Members,
Today we would like to share with you the first comments received for the
new online discussion in which we are looking at the role that information technology in agriculture can play in reducing
rural poverty and
improving food security.
We invite you to reflect on what is needed to reap the full benefits for the famers, the consumers and for the food security
and nutrition of the whole population. What are the mechanisms at play, from which experiences can we learn and what policies are needed?
This discussion is organized in collaboration with the
Agriculture Information Institute of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, the host of the upcoming "APEC Wisdom Agriculture
Workshop".
We invite you to read the summaries of the comments below. The introduction to this discussion is available in
English,
Chinese,
French,
Russian or
Spanish on the FSN Forum's website.
You are welcome to comment in any of these languages.
We look forward to an enriching exchange.
Your FSN Forum team
