The Geodata for Agriculture and Water (G4AW) Facility is the new grant programme of the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs within the policy priorities Food Security and Water. G4AW focuses on improved and increased sustainable food production and more efficient use of water in agriculture.
The G4AW Facility supports projects that will provide smallholder food producers (farmers, pastoralists and fishermen) with satellite information-based products and services. Satellite-based information provides fast, timely and objective data that, once processed, can be used for user-tailored agricultural advice resulting in higher crop yields, water use efficiency, early warnings for drought, flooding, diseases, financial products, etc. >>> See more here >>>watch the G4AW programme video here
