Data cannot be eaten, but giving everyone free access to information could lead to innovations that enhance the production and distribution of food, resulting in global food security. 'Open Access Data for Agriculture' was the theme of the G8 conference on April 29 and 30 in Washington. Sander Janssen, a researcher at Alterra Wageningen UR, was one of the speakers at the conference.
