Our aspiration is a "research-to-farm ecosystem" where farmers and researchers are connected via a string of interfaces linking information domains, and have access to digital information and tools that allow them to make the best choices, either on providing crop / cropping system for farmers by creating an enabling environment
(market, resources, labor, etc...), or on what research interventions are needed to solve farmers' problems.
