Follow development on OS in agriculture

There are some really intresting stuff going on in this field.

For example the Green Ocean movement that are devoloping the "Seawater Greenhouse" as a potentiall open source technology that can effectivly provide desalinated water, dehumidification, humidifacation, food and irrigation in an integrated system. This may be an option in coastal areas where freshwater is deficit and rains unreliable, thus providing a irrigation system that is independant of the rains.

Love wikipedia? Check out Akvopedia, this being an open source for information on water managment and sanitation, the link to sustainable agriculture is obvious and it will be intresting to watch this source develop and hopefully win ground. If this hands-on information source could expand and be translated to as many languages as Wikipedia... The organization behind Akvopedia is Akvo and there is a great deal of intresting projects to read up on. All for developing open source technology.
