Mission: Sitia is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization based in the usa. We are dedicated to promoting and enhancing sustainable agricultural practices and natural resource conservation through the development and deployment of appropriate information technologies. We believe that enhanced economic development in agricultural and rural communities is dependent on promoting strong, sustainable agricultural and forestry practices. The successful implementation and use of these practices are heavily dependent on information access and management. Sitia provides information technology solutions that help to ensure farmers, extension workers, scientists and others access, organize, publish and exchange agricultural information. We work both nationally and internationally, in both developed and developing countries, to better improve speed and accuracy of information access and to provide alternatives by which agricultural information can be published and disseminated.
Programs: Sitia is providing high-level computer and network technical support to population experts in sub-saharan africa and in south asia.
