Analysis of needs of researchers in agronomy: implementation of agricultural information system in Algeria
Abstract:
This abstract summarizes the results of a survey which we conducted with Algerian scientists
specialized in agronomy, veterinary and biological knowledge to manage, analyze their
information practices and evaluate the place they agree to share knowledge and the process
of collective intelligence, facing the creation of a national information on agricultural
research in Algeria. The data reveal a critical need to create an appropriate framework to
share knowledge for collective intelligence. This is the project of creating an information
system with high added value (National Information System on Agricultural Research).
The organization of our investigation consisted of two main phases. An exploratory phase for
which was conducted for qualitative interviews, followed by a pre-survey and another phase
which was devoted to the questionnaire survey. Algeria, strongly faced with constraints of
insufficient agricultural production, needs to fit into this logic and use its search results as a
source of innovation and performance in its current strategy of reducing its food bill.
However, one of its limitations is the lack of tools to facilitate the capitalization and
enhancement of its scientific output.This research on knowledge management from the
scientific production of researchers Algerian highlights need even more crucial : that to
enable knowledge sharing, not only between research communities but also with businesses
and farms.
