Abstract | Crop performance data platforms have emerged as essential tools for the agricultural sector. Their purpose is to consolidate and organize vast amounts of data, enabling evidence-based decision-making. In this context, we explore the significance of these platforms and their potential impact on agricultural practices. As agriculture becomes increasingly data-intensive, farmers and stakeholders require reliable information to optimize operations. Crop yields, phenology, pest incidence, and irrigation/fertilization data are critical inputs for decision support systems (DSS). However, accessing and interpreting the data can be challenging. Therefore a comprehensive review of existing platforms is necessary to address this gap. The agricultural landscape involves various stakeholders—farmers, researchers, educators, and businesses. Each group has distinct needs and interests. By evaluating available platforms, we aim to link the gap between data availability and stakeholder requirements. Our review focuses on two prominent platforms: AgReFed (Australia) and AgYields (New Zealand) databases. These platforms enhance discoverability, trustworthiness, and usability of agricultural research data. By providing accessible benchmarks and analysis-ready information, they empower farmers, rural professionals, and researchers. Our findings highlight areas for improvement, ensuring a more resilient and sustainable agricultural sector. |
