NEEP is a digital platform designed to strengthen the National Agricultural Research and Extension System (NARES) and improve farmer outreach.
It aims to address the low extension agent-to-farmer ratio, offering real-time agricultural information while reducing security risks.
The summit emphasized the role of digital technology in revolutionizing extension services and increasing food production.
