Abstract:

CERSGIS as part of its initial contribution towards providing rich data for this platform, mapped out some agric mechanisation service enterprise centres across the country. The initial database information was retrieved from MoFA website. This again is an indicative location and not exact location of these centres.

 

Purpose:

The purpose for which this dataset was created was solely for the purpose of making it available on this platform to supplement other datasets for related analyses. Attribute information hence were captured based how CERSGIS deems them relevant guided by captured information on the MoFA website.
