Codes of conduct Toolkit
This Toolkit has the practical purpose of providing the conceptual basis and example clauses for general, scalable guidelines for everyone dealing with the production, ownership, sharing and use of data in agriculture. The initial version contains examples inspired by the four existing codes of conduct in different regions. Users can combine clauses and export their set as a basis for a tailored code or for contract clauses.
