Abstract
Good management is essential for efficient operation of any farm, but the concept of management is nebulous and difficult to define. Therefore, scope and definition of farm management is discussed first, by paying attention to the three major management functions: planning, implementation, and control. Then, the impact of recent advances in computer technology on farm management and the concept of management information systems are described. Two potential applications of management information systems are presented: decision support systems and expert systems. The current challenge in building management information systems is to incorporate decision support systems and expert systems to create an effective tool for farm managers.
