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

Indigenous knowledge of soil fertility management in the humid tropics of Arunachal Pradesh

en
Abstract

Traditional ecological knowledge has been established to have a bearing on natural resource management by the indigenous communities living in biodiversity rich North eastern hill region. The present study correlates the indigenous knowledge and scientific knowledge in assessing the nutrient availability status of the agricultural soil as practiced by the 'Nyishi' tribes who use visual properties such as colour, texture and topographic positioning of land/terrain. The physico-chemical analysis of the soil samples for soil characterization and appropriate land use thereof is in concordance with the working model of the indigenous soil knowledge of the 'Nyishis'. Thus, there arises a need to document the traditional knowledge base and include the same for validation and scientific application for better management of soil and other resources.
