The e-ROSA project seeks to build a shared vision of a future sustainable e-infrastructure for research and education in agriculture in order to promote Open Science in this field and as such contribute to addressing related societal challenges. In order to achieve this goal, e-ROSA’s first objective is to bring together the relevant scientific communities and stakeholders and engage them in the process of coelaboration of an ambitious, practical roadmap that provides the basis for the design and implementation of such an e-infrastructure in the years to come.

Internet-Based Application for Malaysian Agricultural Sector: A Qualitative Analysis of Agribazaar's Technical Issues
The Malaysian Government has implemented Internet-based applications to help small scale farmers grab the benefits from the current Internet technology. Agribazaar, which acts as a one stop center for the Malaysian agricultural community was developed to facilitate agricultural community conduct businesses locally or globally online, specifically in terms of buying and selling agro-based products. After seven years of its implementation, the performance of the portal in terms of its usage and successfulness are yet to be explored. This study evaluated the performance of Agribazaar in terms of utilization, awareness, users' satisfactory level and identified issues and challenges of its implementation. The study adopts a qualitative research approach where qualitative data were collected through users' comments in the portal. The findings showed that Agribazaar is considered as successful as it helps to create business leads. It also managed to attract many individuals and companies who are not directly involved with producing the agriculture product to engage in agro-based business. Suggestions were made to guide future enhancement on the portal. A concerted effort between the users, developers and owner of the system is most crucial in leveraging the business matchmaking potential of the portal.
