About the RUFORUM 2010 Biennal Conference
"The 2010 RUFORUM Biennial Conference was the second in the series. The main objective of the Biennial conferences is to provide a platform for agricultural research for development stakeholders in Africa and beyond to actively exchange findings and experiences, while at the same time learning lessons towards improving performance of the agricultural sector and ultimately people’s livelihoods. The biennial conference is RUFORUM’s most comprehensive meeting for the diversity of stakeholders in agriculture. It is especially dedicated to graduate students and their supervisors, grantees in RUFORUM member universities and alumni. It is a platform for peer review, quality control, mentorship, networking and shared learning. This record contains an extended abstract accepted under the theme of Information Systems"
Evaluation of constraints in use of electronic agricultural information resources at selected institutions of Higher Learning in Kenya
Abstract:
This study aims at identifying the constraints in use of agricultural
electronic resources in academic institutions and their
contributions to development in agriculture. Limited access to
agricultural e-resources has led to poor research output and at
times duplication of efforts in agricultural and related sciences
and scanty publication and dissemination.
Cette étude vise à identifier les contraintes dans l’utilisation
des ressources électroniques agricoles dans les établissements
universitaires et leur contribution au développement de
l’agriculture. L’accès limité aux ressources électroniques
agricoles a conduit aux résultats de recherche pauvre et au
dédoublement dans les sciences agricoles et connexes, et la
publication et la diffusion sont rares.
