Fine digital tools that would aid in the transformation, farming, improvement and livelihood of farmers has been launched by the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA).
The digital tools include the cassava, Goseed and yam seed trackers; Akilimo, IITA Herbicide Calculator, e-commerce site and IITA News App.
Dr Nteranya Sanginga, IITA Director General who marks his 8-year in office on Friday last week, described the development of the digital tools as a remarkable feat, adding that they would assist in creating impact at scale.
“This aligns with our vision that led us to create the Partnership & Delivery Directorate whose responsibility is to ensure that not only are we carrying out research and writing scientific papers but also delivering and making impact on farm level,” he added.
“The seed trackers are mobile platforms designed to help in seed production planning, seed traceability, seed inventory, real-time tracking of production status, seed certification, marketing, information resources, among others,” Dr Lava Kumar, the IITA Head of Germplasm Health Unit and Virologist said.
