Recent Activity: Agricultural Science Indicators

Dear All, 

Dear Imma,
I plan to participate in the IGAD and RDA meetings but without personal
presentations :-/
I forward theinvitation to 2 of CIRAD researchers my service works with
on ontologies on "Tropical supply chains and sustainable development".
I don't know if you will allow them to present something about this
ontology project.
Kind regards,
Marie-Claude

Dear Metrics and Indicators in Agricultural Sciences BoF co-chairs,

We are finalizing the logistics for the next IGAD/RDA meeting in Berlin. The structure will be similar to the past editions, one first day dedicated to presentations and a second day focused on the WGs (in parallel), fully organized by them.

Dear all,
IGAD has been invited to report about the last developments at the OGC Agriculture DWG meeting in December. On behalf of IGAD, Patricia, co-chair, will participate with a presentation (30min) remotely. Could we kindly ask to all the WG chairs to submit a couple of slides with a summary of the last developments of your WGs during the next weeks? In case that any of you would like to have a more proactive participation, please let us know.
Thanks,
Imma Subirats
On behalf of IGAD/RDA chairs

Dear all,
We have been discussing a survey to give our thought about metrics and indicators in
agricultural science more context. Sorry that I am a bit late with this, I will not bore you with
excuses. Here
