TechnoServe is introducing a free, open-source Android application for capturing and sharing geotagged farm-level sourcing data. This application will help coffee farmers and exporters comply with new European Union deforestation regulations.
In Nicaragua, agriculture — and livestock production, in particular — is a primary driver of deforestation. Over the years, as cattle ranching has increased, so has land degradation throughout the country.
