The outreach findings
• Meetings and workshops involving more than
80 organizations in West and East Africa
• Key challenges to effectively reach small
holder farmers
– Accessibility to data and technology: overcoming
technical, political, cultural and cost constraints
– Enabling the field role: dissemination and collection, two-
way data flow
• Impact can be enhanced by adding location
context to inform key decisions
