Introduction Agriculture is the most important provider of food and plays an essential role in economic growth. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) states that global demand for food must grow to 70% by 2050 to meet demand. While current production suffices to feed the entire world population, 500 million people still suffer from malnutrition, and over 821 million go hungry. The United Nations estimates that the world’s population will increase by over 2 billion people, most living in urban areas. Annual cereal production must increase by 3 billion tons, and meat production has to grow over 200% by 2050 to meet the demand [4].

Using Facebook to track the spread of livestock diseases and your smartphone to diagnose crop diseases in realtime, could soon be a reality thanks to a series of research grants awarded by the CGIAR Platform for Big Data in Agriculture.
These are among five projects awarded USD$100K to develop game changing approaches to tackling entrenched agricultural problems affecting producers in developing countries. Winners were announced during the Big Data in Agriculture Convention 2017, at CIAT headquarters in Colombia, recently. The 2017 Inspire Challenge grant winners and their projects are: The Inspire Challenge grants are a key part of the Platform’s activities to promote innovation in the use of big data to improve smallholder agriculture. The aim was to promote next-generation ideas to develop solutions faster, better and a greater scale than ever before. “The fact we received 120 great proposals is proof that the big data space is truly alive. “It’s almost like a dream.

The surge in digital technologies available over the past few decades has transformed virtually every sector of the global economy, and agriculture is no exception. Information and communications technologies (ICTs) such as mobile phones and SMS messaging are changing the way farmers track weather patterns, access market information, interact with traders and government agencies, and get paid for their crops. Through its impact on agriculture, this digital revolution, nicknamed the “Fourth Industrial Revolution” by World Economic Forum Founder and Executive Chairman Klaus Schwab, has huge potential to reduce poverty throughout developing regions.
First, ICTs can increase farmers’ resilience to various shocks. Second, ICTs can aggregate smallholder farmers in remote locations, making it easier for agribusinesses and processors to work with them.
