Support for Technology Providers
Research in agronomy and agriculture produces new, improved technologies with the potential to increase yields, resist pests and diseases, withstand adverse climates, improve nutrition and income, and more. The TAAT e-catalogs are a powerful step on the road towards such impact:
Technology Providers are researchers or representatives of organizations that own technologies that we showcase on the e-catalogs. They own the data we publish on their technologies in the e-catalogs.
Technology Providers work with the TAAT technology Profiling team to create technology profiles that are customized to the needs of the audience of the e-catalogs:
-
- decision-makers in governments, who are responsible for the design and implementation of large-scale agricultural development projects,
- decision-makers in private sector companies, who are responsible for the integration of agricultural technologies in new or improved business plans,
- decision-makers in international finance institutions funding agricultural development, or in large international organizations such as iNGOs, responsible for designing and implementing large-scale agricultural development programs.
We provide here supporting and guiding material for Technology Providers:
- e-learning course: introduction to the e-catalogs.
- This e-learning course takes under 5 minutes to study and gives you an easy-to-follow overview of the e-catalogs and technology profiles, their objective and their audience.
- Save the file on your computer and double-click on it, it is then automated and interactive.
- Overview of the process for the creation of a new Technology Profile.
- Guide on the use of the online form.

My Farm Trees: A Digital Platform for Inclusive, Transparent and Resilient Forest Landscape Restoration
Digital transparency and incentives for resilient landscape restoration My Farm Trees (MFT) is a digital platform that supports the restoration of forest landscapes by ensuring complete traceability, from seed collection to tree growth, using blockchain technology. It combines three mobile applications dedicated to seed collection, nursery management, and planting monitoring. Connected to a central dashboard, it guarantees quality control and data verification and facilitates digital payments to reward those involved in restoration. Developed by the Bioversity International Alliance and CIAT, MFT promotes the use of local species, improves livelihoods, and contributes to climate resilience. After Cameroon and Kenya, the platform is now being extended to other countries in Africa, Asia, and Latin America.
Spot the Pest, Stop the Damage Fall Armyworm identification technologies help farmers and extension workers recognize FAW at all life stages: egg, larva, pupa, and adult. These resources include simple visual aids like illustrated field guides, photo sheets, and posters that highlight FAW’s distinctive features, such as the inverted “Y” mark on the caterpillar’s head. Hands-on training ensures users can distinguish FAW from other look-alike caterpillars. By correctly identifying infestations early, farmers can take prompt action before damage escalates. This toolkit provides the foundational knowledge needed for early and accurate identification, which is the crucial first line of defense in managing the pest and strengthening food security.
Learn, Advise, Transform Agriculture! CABI Academy is a digital learning platform that consolidates CABI’s global expertise in plant health, crop pest management, soil, water, and bioprotection practices into self-paced, interactive courses aligned with the global Skills Framework for Agriculture. Backed by accredited certifications and partnerships with universities, it supports national agricultural training systems, helping extension services and agri‑dealer personnel develop targeted skills to improve farmer productivity, national food security, and sustainable development outcomes
