The first brief produced by GODAN for the Collective Action on Inclusive Digital Ag. This brief focuses on data sharing aspects of smart farming. The brief addresses the following questions: 
- Why do farmers want / need to share data and with whom?
- What are the challenges and risks that farmers, particularly smallholder farmers, face with the adoption of digital technologies and the sharing of their data? 
- What are the measures and safeguards to protect against exploitation when sharing data? How can smallholder farmers harness the benefits from sharing such data?
