Online data bank gives open access to international agriculture organization data.

Online data bank gives open access to international agriculture organization data. To deliver a game-changing development project aid agencies and support organisations need a thorough grasp of the country, region or issue they seek to support. Local knowledge is essential, but alongside that there needs to be access to a raft of data which forms the foundation to the design or sustainability of interventions and support activities. The amount of detail required in preparing project proposals or compiling project reports is onerous. Funders want to see context and understand conditions before engaging in new projects or committing to continuing action. The service provides guidance and practical tutorials on using open source data.
