Many farmers live in countries that lack access to reliable weather information, which can make planting and harvesting crops a risky endeavor, experts say.
Agriculture’s technological revolution, in its current form, is neither inclusive nor democratic, in part because few of the innovations are aimed at small-scale farmers. But farmers do have mobile phones, so finding ways to use them to improve farming is essential, said Andy Jarvis, research director at CIAT, and co-founder of the CGIAR Platform for Big Data in Agriculture.
