The Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), have identified information-communication technologies as an essential component for the eradication of poverty in the world. In this context, it is important to highlight that fighting hunger and under-nutrition is a basic step for poverty reduction, and that 75 percent of the world’s poor live in rural areas, 85 percent of them being directly or indirectly involved in agriculture. Therefore, the application of ICTs to poverty reduction must necessarily address their role in agriculture and related sectors as well as in food security and in the livelihoods of rural people.
