The purpose of this Special Issue of Agricultural Systems is to lay the foundation for the next generation of agricultural systems data, models and knowledge products. In the Introduction to this Special Issue, we described a vision for accelerating the rate of agricultural innovation and meeting the growing global need for food and fiber. In this concluding article of the NextGen Special Issue we synthesize insights and formulate a strategy to advance data, models, and knowledge products that are consistent with this vision. This strategy is designed to facilitate a transition from the current, primarily supply-driven approach toward a more demand-driven approach that would address key Use Cases where better data, models and knowledge products are seen by end-users as essential to meet their needs.

下一代农业系统模型和知识产品：综合与策略

本期农业系统特刊的目的是为下一代农业系统数据、模型和知识产品奠定基础。在本期特刊的介绍中，我们描述了加快农业创新速度和满足全球对食品和纤维日益增长的需求的愿景。在 NextGen 特刊的这篇结论性文章中，我们综合了见解并制定了一项战略，以推进与这一愿景一致的数据、模型和知识产品。该战略旨在促进从当前主要由供应驱动的方法过渡到更加需求驱动的方法，该方法将解决关键用例，在这些用例中，更好的数据、模型和知识产品被最终用户视为满足其需求的必要条件.
