For those of you who are interested in ICT issues relating to agriculture
and natural resource management in Africa, Bellanet is hosting a new e-mail
list called AFAGRICT-L.

The list was established by CTA, The Technical Centre for Agricultural and
Rural Cooperation, which is based in Wageningen in the Netherlands. It is
moderated by Mike Jensen. Bellanet is providing list hosting services.

AFAGRICT-L is supported by a web site which features an extensive collection
of links to resources on the subject. See <
http://www.agricta.org/afagrict-l/index.htm >.

Subscriptions to the list can be made through the web site listed above, or
by sending an e-mail message to LYRIS@LYRIS.BELLANET.ORG
with the message SUBSCRIBE AFAGRICT-L FIRSTNAME LASTNAME

The main objectives of the list are to:

-Identify and indicate key ICT issues and strategies relevant to
agricultural development and natural resource management in Africa;
-Improve the common pool of knowledge and expertise available in this area;
-Identify relevant projects and expertise that could assist in defining
strategies
-Provide a mechanism for monitoring technical developments and electronic
information sources which can benefit those working in the area of
agriculture, rural development and natural resource management.

Anyone interested in the use of ICTs for agriculture and natural resource
management is invited to subscribe. While the focus is on Africa, AFAGRICT-L
should be relevant for other developing regions. The discussion is just
getting underway, so now is the time to join. The list is expected to
operate for a minimum of one year.

Best regards,
