Thank you. I will pass this on to my colleagues -------- Original Message -------- Subject: OISAT Date: Thu, 28 Apr 2005 15:45:38 +0200 From: Jewel jewel.bissdorf@pan-germany.org
PAN Germany would like to inform people working in extension services and farmers who have access to the internet about our project OISAT www.oisat.org
OISAT is a platform for information dissemination and information sharing and the integration of online information into training and extension services to ensure an effective information flow from web to field, by collaborating with relevant networks. Additionally, it aims at building a network of organisations and individuals to further improve the value of OISAT and to support the use of information offered via OISAT in the field. It easy to read web-based information, relevant for small scale farmers in the tropics on how to produce key crops using affordable preventive and curative non-chemical crop and pest management practices in a way that prevent pests and diseases by using non-chemical pest control measures.
We would like to get feedback from users on the application of our proposed methods. And also if there are some new locally practiced non-chemical pest management methods to learn about that we could integrate in our system. We look always to improve the quality of our photos, so if anybody has better quality pictures than those displayed on our webpage, we would be happy if you could share these with us.
Furthermore, OISAT Info is easy to use and easy to reproduce as extension materials based on the needs of the users.
Looking forward to your comments/contributions.
thank you very much.
Best regards,
(Mrs) Jewel Bissdorf
