Electronic information systems and farmer decision making: Five case studies
通过对四位农民和一位谷物采购商的深度访谈，发现成功使用电子信息系统的用户能明确信息需求、具备人力资本，并利用系统节省时间或提高效率，从而改善决策。
In-depth interviews with four farmers and one grain purchaser currently using electronic information are used to explore the impact of electronic information systems on decision-making. Key findings are that the most successful users had articulated information needs, had an adequate store of human capital, used electronic information either to save time or to become more efficient with time, and had at least an informal overall management information system in their business. Thus, successful users found that use of an electronic information system improved decision-making. Copyright 1992 by Oxford University Press.
