Deadline: April 16, 2018
Entries are invited for the USAID Digital Agriculture Photo Contest 2018. Send in your best photos of digital agriculture technologies in action for your chance to win cash prizes. Digital Development for Feed the Future (D2FTF) leverages digital tools holistically and according to best practice to improve the cost effectiveness and development results of the U.S. Government’s Feed the Future Initiative.
As part of their mission, they seek to recognize those who are utilizing digital tools to improve farming practices and accelerate the fight against poverty. Help them tell the story of digital agriculture technologies and how they’re working to advance food security and nutrition across the globe by joining this photo contest.
Accepted photos will be featured on Feed the Future’s Flickr for the public to view and vote on. Winners will be announced and featured on USAID and Feed the Future blog and social media platforms.
