Synopsis
Computers On The Farm: Farm Uses For Computers, How To Select Software And Hardware, And Online Information Sources In Agriculture by Deborah Takiff Smith. This 1984 USDA bulletin explains how microcomputers can help farmers improve recordkeeping, management decisions, process control, and communication. It describes the key components of computer systems (hardware, software, and online information), and outlines practical steps for getting started: defining needs, evaluating software, considering hardware, and exploring online information sources. The guide covers everyday uses such as scheduling irrigation, keeping financial and production records, analyzing profitability, and controlling equipment. It discusses strategies for entering the computer era, alternatives to buying (leasing, outsourcing), and how county extension agents can assist with software selection and locating online services. It provides a comprehensive overview of online agricultural information networks (like AGNET and AGRICOLA) and a glossary of common computer terms. The publication aims to help farmers choose appropriate hardware and software, connect to information networks, and realize the potential efficiency gains from computerization on the farm.
