ICT tools

Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is an umbrella term that includes television, cellular phones, computer and network hardware and software – anything that enables users to access, store, transmit, and manipulate information. The tools relevant for tackling issues around food and agricultural sustainability include applications for phones that can track rainfall for farmers or allow smallholders to receive up to date information about commodity market prices for their crops or satellite systems that can help researchers track changes in land use.
