E-Agriculture Survey

 The impact that Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) can have on sustainable development, and in particular, agriculture, has been highlighted through the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) and other global platforms. The realization of the effective application of e-agriculture has become a major priority for the international community. The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) was given the responsibility for facilitation of the Action Line on e-agriculture in the WSIS Plan of Action, and the first major activity is the development of a worldwide survey.

FAO is leading the WSIS (World Summit on the Information Society) Action line on e-agriculture (see http://www.itu.int/wsis/implementation/index.html); we are pleased to announce the launch of the E-Agriculture Survey and your contribution and participation to answer this survey is highly appreciated.

Your input to this survey - your views, ideas and experiences - are much needed to help better define the role that digital technologies can have in improving information exchange and communication related to agriculture. Your comments will help direct future steps in the development of e-agriculture.
