Abstract

This paper discusses the basic technologies that are required to develop state of the art agro-based management information systems (MIS) in India. It features a brief review of how agro-based MIS have developed from word of mouth information systems to complex computerized MISs having multiple sources and consumers of information. The value of timely, relevant and accurate dissemination of agro-based information to the farming community for enhancing productivity in agriculture in India is highlighted. The numerous sources (‘upstream’) and consumers (‘downstream’) of agro-based MISs are listed. A basic block architecture diagram of the MIS is enunciated. The necessity of the use of distributed data architectures, personalized wireless networks and the opportunity of advanced analytic and big data techniques is also discussed. A brief description of each and their relevance to the MIS are mentioned.
