INTEGRATING COMMONS

CLUB OF OSSIACH

“Ossiach Declaration on the uptake of ICT for Agriculture, Forestry, Rural Viability and

Environmental Management”

• The “Club of Ossiach”, a group of agriculturists, agribusiness managers, agriculture

technologists and agricultural ICT specialists from around the world, met at Ossiach

between 17-19 June 2013 at the “AgriFuture Days” Conference. They reviewed current

trends and possible discontinuities resulting from political, social, environmental and

technological changes, potentially impacting on the future of agriculture, farming, rural

viability, food and nutrition worldwide.

• Charter members are: • Robin Bourgeois, Senior Foresight and Development Policies Expert, GFAR c/o FAO

• Ajit Maru, Senior Officer on Agricultural Research, GFAR c/o FAO, Italy

• Karel Charvat, WirelessInfo, Czech and former EFITA president

• Ehud Gelb, Samuel Neaman Institute for National Policy Research, Israel;

• Dieter Ott, Bundesverband der Deutschen Maschinenringe (BMR), Germany;

• Markus F. Hofreither, Agricultural University Vienna, Austria;

• Kyandoghere Kyamakya, Alpen Adria University, Austria;

• Alphons Claessens, NIT Holding – Limited, Netherland;

• Alfred Pitterle, University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, Vienna;

• Walter H. Mayer, CEO, PROGIS Software GmbH, Villach, Austria

CLUB OF OSSIACH

2. The Club of Ossiach focus on ICTs identified the following key points in adoption

of ICT in agriculture

• Agricultural contribution to rural communities is not limited to agro-technology and

production efficiencies. To a large extent it is the result of ICT innovations and their

implementation.

• ICT adoption for agriculture impacts on rural community sustainability and an

unlimited variety of products, economic benefits, technical improvements and social

enhancement.

• ICT will be most effective as an incentive and agent of change when used at points of

stakeholder cooperation. Stakeholders can be expected to be a major motivating

factor for adopting ICT supported agricultural production and rural sustainability.

• Stakeholders participation in ICT development and implementation of innovative

initiatives must include farmers, extension, scientists, agricultural and social

services, students, rural residents and sector supporting entities. This “Bottom –Up”

inclusion complements the now conventional “Top Down” model.

CLUB OF OSSIACH

3. The Club of Ossiach, recognized that these technologies:

• Create promising choices including the change of the nature of information. This will

make it easier to distribute, share and utilize data, information and knowledge.

• Contribute to implementation of opportunities, addressing discontinuities, options;

• Are most effectual as a means of change when effectively integrated at the points of

collaboration between the various stakeholders.

• The knowledge must be focused on people, sustainability, equity, welfare and “happiness”.

• ICT produces ruptures through creative technological breakthroughs: from

“constructive destruction to destructive construction”. It enables the transformation of

concurrent practices driven by tradition, ulterior external interests and obsolete

technologies. ICT will support partnerships and co-leadership.

• The Club of Ossiach recognized further that by creative cooperation sustainable and

responsible agriculture can be attained. This will demonstrate the feasibility of future

evolution of Earth’s ecosystems.

• The Club of Ossiach considered it as a responsibility to pursue technological change

within agriculture.

4. Recommended/expected ICT Adoption priorities and their potential benefits for

future agricultural communities:

• Innovation adoption

• Know-how transfer

• Technology integration

• New business models

• Stimulating innovations – technical, environmental, social and more.....

• Cooperation at the various production and social levels

• Universal benefit for all chain members

• Support a “European Innovation Partnership (EIP): Agricultural Productivity and

Sustainability” initiative.

The Club of Ossiach will meet regularly, to jointly consider the future of agriculture,

farming, food and nutrition and rural viability. The meetings will include documenting

the process, its progress and regular publication of its findings.

CLUB OF OSSIACH

CLUB OF OSSIACH

5. A possible business-model

• A new business model for a country-wide Agro-ICT-adoption was introduced and

reviewed at the conference. The model was titled an “Agro-ICT-Infrastructure

concept”. It is designed to be initiated by the government or a public-private

consortium within a country. It will collate and integrate basic data like ortho-images,

agro-meteorological data and ICT-technologies accessible to the country’s agro-

community. This community will include farmers, smallholders, their suppliers,

customers, advisors, supporting science, education bodies and other public

authorities. They all represent the food-, feed-, biomass- or log-production chain

and are linked together with applications supporting their information needs.

NIAS – FACTS I

THE FACTS I

1. Agriculture, forestry, environment- or natural risk management will always

be a combination of private and public interests!

2. Also private land has social responsibility but society has to understand

that the farmers/foresters can not provide services free of charge!

3. How can we in future countrywide manage with the private “drive” to do

things better because of personal motivation to have also a better income

- not only cash – but also work under sustainability principals that cover

beside necessary “cash-crops” also social responsibility for the commons?

4. With these new targets, farmers/foresters will be able beside production

of crops, meat or logs also support - within a group and group targets -

also service oriented environment- and risk-targets, defined based on

general international or national and fine-tuned regional and local targets.

5. Such models will need more know how, better data and the related

information for the definition, implementation and control of the defined

environmental- and risk-related targets.

NIAS FACTS II

THE FACTS II

1. Advisory Services are today mainly public with a strong trend to do more

private advisory services.

2. The studies of M. Rivera and John W. Carry (2002) give detailed overview

about trends and tendencies with sample of NL, UK, US, NZ, Aus, F etc.

3. The study of Mangheni/Uganda(2007) about problems happening due to the

transfer from public to private describes challenges and needs.

4. The Danish Advisory service with 36 local centers and 3.600 advisors, that

means at 42.000 farmers one advisor for 12 farmers (the rest of EC up to 10%

and less only) focus as bridge between research and farmers and can be used

as best practice.

5. A model like German Machine Cooperatives(BMR) support 193.000 farmers

managing 7,8 Mio ha with 263 offices, a turnover of 1,1 Bio € with 2.423

people = 80 farmers/person organize machinery use and do some advise.

6. In Turkey we have 10.500 “advisors” for 5 Mio farmers = one advisor at 475

farmers

ICT ENABLED INCLUSIVE ADVISE

ICT ENABLED INCLUSIVE ADVISE

• Analyzing the problems documented within the study of Mangheni (2007)

when Uganda changed from public to private services, we analyzed that

>80% of mentioned problems can be solved with a help of ICT, e.g.: • Advising and teaching methods, building capacity, assist farmers to develop

plans, documenting and provide reports, develop organizational capacities,

make farmers demand services, have a pool of services interrelated, support

qualities and holistic knowledge and skills, technology and training

development, monitoring and evaluation, manage demonstrations, agro-

business incl. costs/benefits, general- and business-management, link to

research, entrepreneurship, innovation, natural resource, environmental and

livelihood issues, link pay to performance, link to markets, link end-users and

farmers etc..

• From understood needs of today, qualified and managed advisors must:

• give youth a motivation due to demanded skills to stay in rural areas

• manage beside farmers complete rural areas supporting parallel

• environment and risks deriving from natural resources!

ELINOR OSTROM, COMMONS and INCLUSIVE ADVISE

Elinor Ostrom – Nobel-price for business science 2009

Codification of the common law was necessary: –1. Trial: ABGB 1811 in Austria

- Liberation of the farmer since 1848/49

–2. Trial: Reichsgemeindegesetz 1862 (Community admin §§)

–3. Trial: provisorische Gemeindeordnungen (Commune law)

–4. Trial: Neuanlegung des Grundbuches 1871 (new groundbook)

- 1883: 㤤 partitioning of common ground and define use rights

- 1883 – 1925 general regulation and implementation

CARINTHIA (Southern region of Austria):

- 1885: 3013 Cooperatives in 230 Communities

- 1913: 2065 Cooperatives with 136.175 ha

- 2014: 1715 Cooperatives with 138.083 ha

According Ostrom we need:

- Precise defined borders

- Congruence between rules of acquisition and

- rules of allocation

- Local requirements

- Org-structures for collective decisions

- Control and penalty

- Conflict solving mechanism

- Minimum organization structure

- 12 Alpine Centres

- 5-6 x way-length

- 5-6 x water-pipes

- More fountains

- 5000m+ fences

CARINTHIA (Southern region of Austria):

- A cooperative acc. Austrian legislation is able to

manage commons acc. the rules of Elinor Ostrom!

INCLUSIVE ICT CAN MANAGE COMMONS

MANAGING COMMONS • INCLUSIVE ICT together with cooperative structures will be able to manage commons

• To manage commons is in most cases a question of precise information management

• Farmers can support to manage them together with experts and locally defined

targets und an umbrella of international, national and regional targets

• Experts can together with the local population define targets under the precise know

how of the carrying capacity of pieces of land and

• Farmers can complete or partly implement the “todos” into reality and do this in a

sustainable manner

• Control institutions will have to cross-check the results from time to time and farmers

get more or less paid for the implementation acc. the quality of the results

• ELINOR OSTROM – nobel price 2009 - described the model how commons have to be

managed

• We find this model today in cooperative structures in rain forests and at indigenious

people as well as at cooperatives in Switzerland or Austria

• People will overuse the commons as long as they are not aware that they might

disappear due to being wrong managed or being not managed!

• New inclusive advisory services will with inclusive ICT be enabled to manage commons

together with experts and farmers!
