  1. ICT-enabled Agricultural Science for DevelopmentScenarios, Opportunities, IssuesbySeishi Ninomiya (NARC-NARO) ICTs transforming agricultural science, research & technology generation Science Forum Workshop Theme 3

  2. Scenario’s • Sensor technologies • Sensor network based field monitoring • New sensors • Mobile phones and IC tags • Technologies to integrate and utilize distributed resources • Data Grid to virtually integrate distributed databases • Computational Grid to virtually realized super-computer • Mash-up to integrate services to create a new service • Multilingual semantics • Computational statistics and soft computing • Hyper multidimensional data • Non-linear models • Pattern recognition

  3. Opportunities • Stable and continuous farm (field) data acquisition • Decision support for site-specifically most optimal farming • Decision support by Case Base Reasoning (CBR) • Basis for GAP and food safety • Resource integration and sharing • Globally usable and locally useful applications • Virtual corporation of small scale farmers • New types of data modeling • ICT based innovative breeding • Whole genomic selection based on computational statistics, high-throughput sequencing, genetic resource databases • Widely applicable robust biological models • Growth model, pest prediction model, etc From maximization to optimization by ICT

  4. Issues • Data exchange and sharing • Interoperability and standardization for seamless data exchange and sharing • Mash-up • Ownership • System to realized Interdisciplinary collaboration • Field data collection • How to convince farmers to collect and accumulate field data continuously • P&P sensing and data archive • Language • International information sharing • Literacy
