Agrifeeds, the agricultural news and events aggregator

Agrifeeds is the new service realized to provide an aggregated view of news and events in the area of agriculture, harvested from several sources, and an easy way to customise and re-use the aggregated information.

Agrifeeds is the new service realized to provide an aggregated view of news and events in the area of agriculture, harvested from several sources, and an easy way to customise and re-use the aggregated information.
The service has been developed by FAO in partnership with CGIAR, CTA, GFAR, GFIS and IAALD.
The service allows feed owners to register their feeds (news and/or events) and users / webmasters.to make a one-stop search and filter on news and events aggregated daily from several agricultural information sources. The filtering criteria can be saved to create a custom feed which will always contain updated results meeting the applied criteria and can be read using a feed reader or/and be embedded into a website. 
Agrifeeds is different from other RSS aggregators in that it aims at higher quality in: selection, subject indexing, metadata description and tailoring of the information.

Agrifeeds is part of a "Feasibility Study" on the use of web-feeds for aggregating and filtering news and events. Therefore, the site and/or its feeds may be unavailble from time-to-time.
