Improving Agricultural Information Systems Boosts Market Coordination in Developing Countries.
Agricultural information services are important for helping government officials, businesses, and organizations make better decisions about food and agriculture in developing countries. This paper looks at how improving market information can help firms in the food system work together more effectively. It questions whether investing in information services is better than investing in things like infrastructure. The goal is to help government officials and rural development workers understand the importance of collecting, analyzing, and sharing agricultural information to improve market coordination.
