Plantwise is an initiative, led by CABI, to improve food security and the lives of the rural poor by reducing crop losses.
Plantwise helps the world's poorest farmers lose less and grow more by delivering actionable knowledge:
-
helping countries establish community-based plant clinics which deliver practical advice to farmers when their crops have a problem.
-
helping to join up the research community and the farmers, by translating the researchers’ knowledge into practical, accessible advice and feeding back information from farmers into a central knowledge bank.
-
bringing together the best of the knowledge in the plant health field, including local pest distribution data, and making it available from a central resource.
