Data, Information, and Governance of Digital Climate-Informed Advisory Services
Published 2021“…The following are key aspects of the general enabling environment that should be addressed in endeavours to invest in and improve DCAS and its contribution to small scale producers’ climate resilience: • Construction and maintenance of national data systems that ascribe to data governance standards, allowing for the creation of coherence among the multiple providers of information and advice • Monitoring, evaluation, learning and co-production of improved services, with accountable partnership between public and private sector actors • Building of farmer capacity for access, use and driving co-production of DCAS, while recognizing that complementary non-digital communication channels could avoid disadvantaging farmers that face barriers to accessing digital delivery channels • Garnering sufficient public commitment and sustainable public goods investment, establishing viable business models, and gathering supporting evidence to sustain impact at scale • Provision and effective use of high-quality data and derived information, partly through addressing any gaps in the data collection and management systems of the public meteorological, agricultural and environmental information on which quality DCAS depend • Extending DCAS investment to support other agricultural value chain actors whose capacity to manage climate risk significantly impacts small scale producers…”

Local and transboundary transmissions of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus sequence type 398 through pig trading
Published 2020“…In this study, we investigated the drivers contributing to the introduction and spread of LA-MRSA ST398 through the pig farming system in southern Italy. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of LA-MRSA ST398 isolates collected in 2018 from pigs (n = 53) and employees (n = 14) from 10 farms in the Calabria region of Italy were comparatively analyzed with previously published WGS data from Italian ST398 isolates (n = 45), an international ST398 reference collection (n = 89), and isolates from Danish pig farms (n = 283), which are the main suppliers of pigs imported to Italy. …”
