Links to Agriculture, Mathematics and Statistics


Agriculture


Mathematics and Statistics


The Information Management Resource Kit (IMARK) is a partnership-based e-learning initiative to train individuals and support institutions and networks world-wide in the effective management of agricultural information. 

The FAO Corporate Document Repository houses FAO documents and publications, as well as selected non-FAO publications, covering topics including agriculture, livestock, fisheries and forestry management, and sustainable natural resources management.

The work of the LEAD initiative, located within the FAO, focuses on the close and complex interactions between government policies and the environmental impact of livestock production. Resources available include documents related to livestock, the environment and development and the Livestock and Environment Toolbox, an electronic decision support tool for policy makers, planers and project leaders, to enable them to assess interactions between livestock and the environment. 

Public Intellectual Property Resource for Agriculture (PIPRA) offers a wide number of services supportive of the management of agricultural intellectual property, access to ag-biotechnologies, and development of biotechnology research tools and products. PIPRA's publicly available, on-line IP database consolidates information, including licensing availability, of agricultural technologies accessible for research and development.


Over 34,000 articles are available from over 100 years of high-quality mathematical research in 'Journal of the AMS,' 'Mathematics of Computation,' 'Proceedings of the AMS,' 'Transactions of the AMS,' and 'Bulletin of the AMS.

The electronic Journals Delivery Service (eJDS) offers access to current scientific literature free of cost in the fields of Physics and Mathematics. Articles can be sent by email to scientists in institutions in the least developed or low income countries, who do not have access to sufficient bandwidth to download material from the Internet. An institution needs to apply by sending an application form and when approved, the institutional contact will be informed by e-mail how to proceed.

The new “e-Math for Africa” will give more news relevant to African and Low-Income Country mathematicians regarding journals, books and databases as well as potential funding opportunities.

The Electronic Library of Mathematics contains online journals, article collections, monographs, and other electronic resources in the field of mathematics. 

Free access to Bulletins and Newsletters from the International Mathematics Union (IMU) and its members. 

PhysMath Central is an independent publishing platform operated by BioMed Central committed to providing immediate open access to peer-reviewed physics and mathematics research.

Joint project between Cornell University and SPARC, Project Euclid's mission is to advance scholarly communication in the field of theoretical and applied mathematics and statistics.
