e-infrastructure Roadmap for Open Science in Agriculture

A bibliometric study

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.

This website highlights the results of a bibliometric analysis conducted at a global scale in order to identify key scientists and associated research performing organisations (e.g. public research institutes, universities, Research & Development departments of private companies) that work in the field of agricultural data sources and services.

Title

HOW TO TRANSFER KNOWLEDGE IN THE ANDALUSIAN INSTITUTE OF AGRICULTURAL RESEARCH AND TRAINING? CASE ANALYSIS

en
Abstract

Several platforms are currently in use for knowledge generation and transfer in the agri-food sector. In Andalusia, Spain, the Institute for Agricultural Research and Training (IFAPA) provides access to a free public on-line agriculture and fisheries knowledge transfer and consulting platform (SERVIFAPA). This web platform is a tool that organizes the distribution of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) and grants access to the knowledge-based society, by improving the performance of the agri-food sector in rural areas through better qualification and training, under the governing requirements of sustainability and quality. In the present work we present SERVIFAPA and explain how it is operated through several case studies in which specific needs from the regional Agriculture, Fisheries and Food sector were identified. Once specific technological demands are identified, knowledge transfer tools are proposed and developed in response to these demands. Several SERVIFAPA products with different levels of complexity and extension, such as 'Documents or scientific-technical reports' and 'Interactive multimedia learning products', are analyzed as case studies. The different steps that define the workflow towards product publication in SERVIFAPA are exposed for the different types of materials. In addition, SERVIFAPA's documental repository management tool is presented. As a result of this analysis, bottlenecks and inconsistencies were detected in the publication workflow that, and possible solutions are proposed to optimize, streamline the publication process, and to provide a broader coverage of knowledge transfer and management.
