Submitted by Kees Stigter and L.S. Rathore it shows the need of
improving the logistics in the use of climate related disease (and
pest) forecasting and proposes to try new extension methods such as
Climate Field Schools where these methods should reach farmers in
poor countries that need to become ware
of existing action possibilities. A PowerPoint presentation of this paper with illustrations is available from the authors.
