DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF POULTRY FARMING INFORMATION MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (A CASE STUDY OF ADEOTI FARM, IJAGBO)
Abstract
Accurate and easy to use Farm Information Management System (FIMS) are of fundamental importance for a successful operational farm management. Unfortunately, most farmers do not use FIMS when it comes to operate their business, despite the increasing professionalism in the agricultural sector and its increasing usage of IT technologies.
The skillful and conceived management is one of the most important success factors for today’s farms (Mishra et al., 1999; Muhammad et al., 2019). Only when a farm is well managed, it can generate the funds to finance its sustainable development and thereby its survival in today’s fast changing environment. However, a sophisticated management is a challenging and time-consuming task, and has to be organized as efficiently as possible (Doye et al., 2020). Reasons that explain the importance of a sophisticated farm management are certainly diverse, however, three major factors have been identified in the ongoing academic discourse.
