| description | KEY MESSAGES
◼ Two themes manifest in the challenges outlined, unequal power relations and a disconnect from farmers’ needs and input.
◼ Agricultural digitization should strive to follow ethical principles specific to the sector, agroecology offers an existing framework.
◼ Digital technical assistance that advances the interests of smallholders and is relevant to their farms can facilitate a shift towards agroecology through farmer-to-farmer networks and knowledge exchange.
◼ Recommendations include:
▪ Govern for an inclusive digital
ecosystem & economy
▪ Leverage and expand food, data
& social justice movements
▪ Code ethics into digital
