Abstract

This paper discusses a conceptual design of a Ag Data service for the farm industry, compares it to desktops FMIS and discusses some of the main concepts this kind of system may include. Beginning with an introduction to the current situation and how the amount and size of the data is affecting the capacity to process it efficiently, on a personal computer desktop or other devices. Following with a description of the characteristics and components, presenting a case study to demonstrate the way it may function within a farm environment.
