Abstract

The Good Growth Plan: A Geospatial Approach
Track: Agriculture
Authors: Brent Slone, Bill Danker

Syngenta created the Good Growth Plan to conduct spatial analysis to help understand what makes crops and protocols more efficient. Leveraging web/mobile GIS for data sharing has produced large quantities of detailed farm-level information across the Globe. Partnerships with GODAN & ODI enable leveraging our data with available ‘big data’ that provides consistent, global information on factors such as weather, soil and growing conditions, bringing real change for small farmers around the world.
