Summary:

If you follow us on AIMS then you’ll know that the Open Knowledge In Agricultural Development channel (OKAD), which appears on scientific publication platform F1000Research, is open for submissions on a range of topics related to agricultural development.   Open Knowledge initiatives in agriculture are aimed at breaking down some of the barriers – technical, cultural, financial and legal, that exist in accessing agricultural information.   These initiatives champion free and unrestricted access to data, software and learning materials. They pledge to speed-up agricultural development and to reduce world poverty and hunger. And they are focused on improving food security in less economically developed countries. OKAD is an open access collection of articles and a platform for authors to share their original research findings, data, and opinions related to Open Knowledge initiatives in all areas of agriculture.   Once you’ve contributed an article to OKAD your peers are able to comment and you can revise your work along the way.
