The purpose of this wiki is to provide resources for agricultural development workers, especially those in Iraq and Afghanistan. The type of site that would be useful would include descriptions of the agricultural development projects in those countries, such as
Inma,
IAER and
the PRT Portal. Please feel free to add information on these and other topics--or create a new page.

What is a wiki library?Wikiwiki means quick in Hawaiian. A wiki library is a document library in which users can easily edit any page. The library grows organically by linking existing pages together or by creating links to new pages. If a user finds a link to an uncreated page, he or she can follow the link and create the page.
In business environments, a wiki library provides a low-maintenance way to record knowledge. Information that is usually traded in e-mail messages, gleaned from hallway conversations, or written on paper can instead be recorded in a wiki library, in context with similar knowledge.
Other example uses of wiki libraries include brainstorming ideas, collaborating on designs, creating an instruction guide, gathering data from the field, tracking call center knowledge, and building an encyclopedia of knowledge.
