Call for more help for poorest farmers
The founder of Microsoft, Bill Gates has said that the international community's efforts to fight hunger and poverty are
inefficient and outdated. He said advances made by the digital revolution needed to be harnessed to help the world's
poorest farmers more effectively.
Mr Gates said more needs to be done to support poor farmers in South Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa and elsewhere. He
said there was a lack of coordination between governments, aid donors and the UN's agencies, like the World Food
Programme. Mr Gates called for the setting up of what he called a “public score card” system.
This would make it easier to tell how well, or how badly, different countries and agencies were performing in the fight to
reduce poverty.
He said the effort to help small farmers also needs to harness the power of advances made in digital technology. In an
age when satellites can tell instantly exactly how much wheat is in a field, he said, it was a shame that people were still
being sent out with pen, paper and tape measures to try to do the same job.
Mr Gates said that the stakes couldn't be higher for the families of poor farmers. If they don't benefit from the fruits of
the digital revolution they will fall far behind. But Mr Gates believes that if they can be connected to some of the latest
breakthroughs in science they will have a chance to leapfrog foward.
