Special Issue of Informatics Studies on Agricultural Informatics- Papers Invited.
by editor＠informaticsstudies.in 02 Feb '20

02 Feb '20

Dear Agricultural Scientists and Students Informatics Studies is a platform for discussing the emerging trends in theory and application of Information Science and is entering its fifth year of publication. The journal focuses on interdisciplinary and international perspectives on Informatics. Information is a crucial resource in agriculture, potentially influencing the efficiency of production, marketing, processing and administration; as well as education, research and extension related to these factors. So the development process in agriculture rests heavily on information available to managers, scientists and farmers. Yet this aspect of agriculture gets least consideration and inefficiencies have become obvious in managing this resource. Various attempts to develop Agricultural Research Information Systems in most of the countries have failed due to lack of an integrated approach. Informatics Studies devotes Volume 7 (2) (April-June 2020 ) issue for studies on new developments and application of Information and Communication Technologies to solve agricultural, biological and natural resource problems. Scientists, educationists, extensionists, consultants, designers, programmers, managers and information users from agricultural and its penumbral sectors and farmers are requested to contribute research papers and articles for the issue. Any paper recording results of innovative research and development as well views on different areas of teh subject are welcome. Papers can be uploaded at informaticsstudies.in on or before 20th March 2020. Papers can also be submitted the editors e-mals provided below if there is any difficulty in uploading it.
