Question 1:
- Use of blanket recommendation: in most developing countries farmers are not in a position to make informed and appropriate decision to apply any agricultural inputs rather farmers are forced to use a blanket recommendation without knowing the type and amount of nutrients lack to his/her soil. Mostly agriculture professionals recommend based on the research findings done somewhere else.
- How much farmers especially in developing countries will have access to the technology better to be considered.
- Not only socio-economic divides but also socio-cultural divides is better to be considered.
- Data quality should be considered boldly.
Question 2:
- Be loyal: the digital council shall be loyal to give constant support or allegiance to the rural community.
- Transparent and fairness.
