SILO
- an internet farm community,
has been a research program of the Farrer
Centre at Charles Sturt University
since 1996. Another SILO
site, dealing with meteorological
information for rural industries, was formed in 1997 with
the support of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry Australia and
Australia's Rural Research and Development Corporations.
Many
of the ideas generated from SILO's
research and online communities initiatives
have been adopted by other web sites, in business and agriculture.
SILO
will continue as a research program for farmers, the regional
community and researchers.....
SILO's
search engine developed in 1996.
