IITA and the Ogun Ministry of Agriculture met recently to discuss a #digital agriculture project that involves co-creating a digital agricultural information system platform, registering about 100,000 smallholder farmers, and undertaking a baseline survey among farmers.
An IITA delegation from the Digital Delivery Working Group led by Lava Kumar, Head of the Germplasm Health Unit & Virology and co-lead of the Working Group, with Alfred Dixon, Director of the Development and Delivery Office, visited the Ogun State Ministry of Agriculture to discuss details of the project.
