Workshop Description:
This one-day workshop will focus on engaging the governmental and non-governmental organizations, public and private industry, academia, and other end users on how NASA precipitation and other water data can be used for agricultural applications and support decision making.

- Increase awareness of relevant NASA data products (e.g. precipitation, soil moisture) that could be/are utilized in the agriculture sector.
- Discuss the barriers to use of products or community needs to increase the effective exploitation of products.
- Foster a dialogue to increase awareness of projects, participants, and networking within the sector including commercial and private companies, government, NGOs, etc.
