  2. Outreach • Gramene’s outreach programbridges the interface between program staff and a diverse audience that includes researchers, agriculturalists, and students of all ages. • Gramene aims to improve research through the dissemination of information. This dissemination of information is the definition of outreach.

  3. Outreach Components • Database development and maintenance. • Database promotion, education and support. • Community Collaboration. • Education.
