Abstract

The objective of this research was to design information system to manage agricultural machinery for sugar cane cultivation in dry land. The system was designed to assist and support the top manager to properly select agricultural machinery for sugar cane, to discern the acquired agricultural machinery for sugar cane, to schedule of machinery operation, to analyze economical cost of agricultural machinery used and finally to determine analysis sensitivity of agricultural machinery. The design of the system consist of input design, output design and database structural design. Survey, literature study, and interview with parties related to the research were ways to surely record and to completely identify data. Afterwards, the computer program was created using software Borland Delphi Version 6 of which enabled to implement the system involving database. Delphi used language development namely Object Pascal. The program was named SIPAMP (Management Information System for Agricultural Machinery) for sugar cane cultivation. The information system could appropriately and quickly advise sugar cane mill top managers in decision making, planning and controlling operation of agricultural machinery of each activity for Sugar Cane cultivation in dry land.
