The Agricultural Monitoring in the Americas (AMA) Community of Practice is an open community composed of national and international agencies concerned with agricultural monitoring and food security in the Americas (from Canada to Chile). The AMA is the convening body of GEOGLAM Latinoamérica (G-LA) and the AmeriGEOSS Food Security & Sustainable Agriculture sister initiatives. Both initiatives focus on strengthening national systems’ monitoring capabilities through the use of Earth observations (EO), as well as on fostering with-in-region international collaboration around research and development and operational implementation of monitoring tools for the main crops types and rangeland/pasture areas in the Americas. Through facilitating contact and coordination between researchers and decision-makers at the ministerial level, the AMA’s implementing body (AMA-Working Group) uses EO data to confront challenges around food production, food security, climate change, and sustainable development.
