Abstract
Geospatial technologies are becoming an integral part of solving the food security equation
from an integrated research and development, aid better intervention and delivery programs,
policy, and outreach. A recent advance in geoinformatics technology has opened new avenues
for integrated agro-ecosystems research and applications. The shift in paradigm from landscape
level studies to farmscape to underhand the matric of granularity within and among the
smallholder farming systems in a participatory and integrated agro-ecosystem approach to
improve capacity and processes which leads to cross-fertilization of diverse interests and, by
package of practices, to the development of sustainable, farms level information services at a
higher spatial scale from effective interventions to ex-ante analysis towards improvising food
security and better livelihoods in the dry areas.
