- Abstract
- Agriculture is behind in the adoption of information technology. Precision agriculture provides means for obtaining desirable business goals like product quality, reduced labor cost, and balanced product mix. This study describes the use of a dairy management information system implemented by S. A. E. Afikim to illustrate the applicability of systems in precision agriculture. Findings suggest that the adoption of Six Sigma-based dairy management information system supports four of five propositions: reduced product defect, optimal product mix, quality, and efficiencies.
