Subject:      IBSnet Farm Working Group
From:   Punya Regmi [regmi@ait.ac.th]

I appreciate the concept of IBSnet of Farm Working Group in general and
idea of Markus Bieri in particular. The Ethiopian Project seems possible to
replicate in other developing countries including Nepal.

As a visitng scholar I visited Department of Agricultural Economics, ETH
in 1998. Since then we are also thinking to start some project on livestock
demand and supply situation in Nepal. Prof. Abdulai and myself are
thinking to initiate this project in the near future. Since the IBSnet of the
Farm Working Group is coming up it may be better to include this
proposed livestock project in the broader framework of the IBSnet.
