Are all agricultural reseach institutions talking to each other? Can icts help in Knowledge sharing?

When I attended the sessions of eAgriculture at eINDIA 2009, what amazed me was the intense and critical research work being done by various reseach institutions on the one hand were sharing amidst peers, but little was being done for knowledge sharing. Their value could enhance tremendously if they collaborated and promoted knowledge sharing amongst scientists of other institutes, extension activities could be enhanced through effective use of ICTs.

120000 extension workers are working in India. ICT makes information and knoweldge and networks accessible. the UN solution Exchange is an excellent example of the impactful kind of work. http://www.un-solutionexchange.org
