Web-based Buleleng regency agriculture product information system development

Abstract

Abstract Agriculture is very important for the welfare of the nation. However, accurate and up-to-date agriculture data in the Buleleng regency are difficult to find. This study was aimed at making a developmental design of Web-based Buleleng regency agriculture product information system and implementing it to support the region’s best products-based regional people economy. The development of this system used the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) method with Waterfall model that followed five stages of activities, namely (a) requirements definition, (b) system, and software design, (c) implementation and unit testing, (d) integration and testing, and (e) operation and maintenance. The data needed in the system was obtained by working together with the Buleleng regency agricultural office. Later this system will involve some users with different accessing rights, namely field agriculture extension agents who manage product data, the workers of the agriculture office as administrators of the system, the general public, and consumers who probably come from hotels, restaurants, supermarkets, etc that become the markets of the agriculture products in Buleleng regency. Consumers can order the products. However, this system does not handle online payments. It is expected that with this system Buleleng regency will have accurate and up-to-date data related to agriculture products that are available in Buleleng. In addition, this system can be used as a model for other regencies in Bali and other regions in Indonesia. With the availability of this system in the future, the farmers as producers will get good prices for their products and the consumers will get products of good quality at reasonable prices.
