dc.description.abstractThis study focuses on the design and implementation of a digital farm management system for small holder farmers in Kween district. The digital farm management system (DFMS) is an online platform designed to enhance agricultural productivity through improved record keeping, harvest tracking and marketing of farm produce amongst farmers and buyers in Kween district. The system is a platform that enables both farmers and buyers to interact online during the process of selling the agricultural produce by farmers and buying buy the sellers. The DFMS enables farmers create accounts, login, upload farm produce, record and track harvests including viewing of orders made by buyers. Buyers create accounts, login, view produce available for sell and place orders. System administrator manages users, system audits and generate reports and download them for farmers. The system combines record keeping, harvest tracking and marketing all in one platform and the technologies used include HTML, CSS, java script for the front-end development, PHP for backend development and MYSQL database for data storage and runs using warm server. The different modules like authentication, farm records module, harvest management module and marketing module were developed using visual studio code. The web browsers used include Microsoft edge and chrome. Therefore, by use of digital technologies through automating manual processes, the digital farm management system (DFMS) reduces manual record keeping, local search for markets and reduces exploitation by middlemen hence improving efficiency through easy access of the market and secure record keeping.
