This discussion summary outlines the contributions made during the online discussion on the e-Forum on ICTs and Open Data in Agriculture and Nutrition that took place from 19 June to 14 July 2017 on the e-Agriculture platform. This expert led discussion attracted contributions from the e-Agriculture Community. Participants shared their opinions on the three pre-designed guiding questions. What role can ICTs play in using Open Data in Agriculture and Nutrition for farmers, especially small holder family farmers, rural women and youth engaged in agricultural livelihoods? What case studies demonstrate the benefits and/or damages of the use of ICTs and Open Data? What investments are needed to reap open data benefits and what precautions are needed to prevent damage to vulnerable farmers from opening data for agriculture and nutrition?
