This GFAR White Paper: ‘Digital and Data-driven Agriculture. Harnessing the Power of Data for Smallholders’, has been prepared by a renowned international group of experts in the field and is proudly co-published with GODAN and CTA. It sets out the opportunities for smallholders to benefit from access to relevant data in useable forms, but also the very real risks and challenges faced in enabling farmers own data – whether directly or indirectly shared – to be valued and rewarded appropriately, so that sharing data does not actually undermine their own advancement by favoring others who are better able to use it for their own purposes.
