Completion of AGROVOC First Phase

ICRISAT completes phase I of conversion of AGROVOC to a Concept Server.Over the past one year ICRISAT has been working in association with FAO to revise and refine the terms in the AGROVOC. The first phase of the work has been successfully completed and it will be upgraded onto an ontology in the second phase. Congratulating the team members on the completion of a very knowledge intensive work, FAO's Senior Information Officer Gudrun Johannsen writes - "let me thank you so much for the excellent work the AGROVOC team has done on the revision of AGROVOC according to the LoA! We all know that it has not been an easy task, and without your outstanding effort it would not be possible to achieve our goal to convert AGROVOC into a Concept Server."She has acknowledged AGROVOC team members for their excellent work.
