Abstract
Agricultural production has evolved into a complex business.
It requires the accumulation and integration of knowledge and information from many diverse sources, including marketing, horticulture, insect, mite, disease and weed management, accounting and tax laws.
To alleviate this problem, current information must be structured and organised into an accessible system for growers and agricultural specialists.
Because no organised structure is available for information storage and retrieval, technical information is often lost or unavailable to potential users.
The use of electronic decision support systems is one way to make this information readily available.
