| dc.description | Smallholder resource-poor farmers are confronted by many challenges such as the negative impacts of climate change, increased frequency of natural disasters, loss of biodiversity, food price volatility and inefficient supply chains, among others. At the same time, agriculture is becoming increasingly knowledge intensive. Farmers must make complex decisions on land use, input purchases, what to plant, choice of markets in which to sell, etc. Information communication technologies have provided op portunities to address such challenges to improve agricultural production and productivity, and enhance value chains. This publication presents seven case studies in innovative use of emerging technologies to significantly improve the living standards of farming communities. | |
