Actions in this area should strive to: facilitate capturing community-generated wisdom and collective experiences; support social awareness, collaboration, knowledge sharing and persistence, and the exchange of experiences. The type of actions envisaged include basic research, applied research, and technology demonstration. Examples of RTD activities include, but are not limited to: Development of tools for managing large information spaces (e.g., knowledge ontologies, evolutionary knowledge repositories, recommender systems).Development of interaction mechanisms to cope with new virtual spaces (e.g., collaborative filtering, virtual and augmented realities, etc.).Development of agent-based communication languages for knowledge sharing.

Another important problem related to the use of renewable energy sources in farming systems is energy storage. A variety of technologies are being developed. However, due to its extensiveness and complexity, this problem should be thoroughly discussed in a separate paper. Overall, considerable technology demonstration will be required to prove the technical performance, understand implementation requirements, and build local knowledge and capability. In addition, the farming practices of precision agriculture, controlled traffic farming (CTF), direct drilling, and minimum tillage could also be used to reduce energy use.

Prior to a technology demonstration of the dry cleaning system by testing a full-scale prototype facility, it is necessary to understand the mechanisms of residual sodium formation and to quantify the uncertainties of the phenomena with pilot-scale and/or laboratory-scale test specimen as a step of the technology development process. Constructed analytical models in this study will be validated by full-scale test specimens in a relevant environment in future.
