CD3WD

Given my interest in resilient communities, and my worry about how things are going in the world, I wanted to share this incredible resource of information.

I suspect that every conceivable subject pertaining to agriculture in some way or other is to be found here. It appears to be directed mainly towards third world nations, and less technologically developed agriculture. Which...might just be us soon.

The “index page” alone is 100 pages printed. Just to give you an idea of how much is there.

Located in Botswana, CD3WD is a free but high quality collection of practical How-To Technical Development Information - helping the 3rd world to help itself. There are 4000 titles, totalling 13 gigabytes of free high quality technical development information on Agriculture, Forestry, Fisheries, Food Processing, Small Industries, Engineering, Construction, Water and Sanitation, Accountancy, Economics, Education, Health and in fact (almost) everything under the sun. Hosted free online and also - very importantly - made available for free download and onward dissemination via flash ram, CD, DVD, external hard drive etc.
