Successful execution of this Study will result in a documented environmental scan of regional ICT usage in agricultural value chains including critical analyses and recommendations which will facilitate the improved understanding of ICT opportunities, uses, skills and capacity needs.
The Launch will include a Consultants’ Briefing at which invited stakeholders from the target countries (Barbados, Belize, Jamaica, St Kitts and Nevis, and Trinidad and Tobago) will meet with the consultants and assist in the development of the implementation plan.
