(Web2.0)How could we Use ICT to enable Agricultural Innovation Systems for smallholders?

ICT can expand communication, cooperation, and ultimately innovation among the wide array of actors in agriculture. This forum builds on Module 6 of the "ICT in Agriculture Sourcebook", and is exploring how ICT can improve the concepts and operations discussed in the Agricultural Innovation Systems Sourcebook.

The discussion is currently exploring:

• What ICT innovations are being used for farmers to access and exchange the information they need, and for service providers to provide information to farmers? 
•  
• What factors make ICT-based advisory services for smallholders sustainable?
•  
• How does ICT facilitate knowledge generation, documentation, and sharing in support of farmers and of farmer innovations?
•  
• What evidence exists of smallholders using and/or benefitting from ICT-based advisory services?

Milk industries have to be carefull always!!!!!!

The raw milk should be always undergo several tests of quality control such as, pH determination which give us more informations on milk acidity, the specific gravity test which give us more informations on milk density and that milk have not been adulterated buy local farmers before supplying it at the industry!!!


other tests also are done at the reception such as alcohol test by using alcohol gun apparatus, and the apparatus known as Lactoscan/ milk analyzer help us to know the milk components such as protein content, fat content, lactose content, the pH, solid non fat, the added water, the milk density ,etc....

to well know the milk fat content the Gerber method can be done .

thanks and enjoy the milk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
