Abstract :
Digitalizing the information system into a
dashboard mechanism makes it easy for executives to
interpret data processed by professionals in different field
even with little knowledge on the technicalities in the
background. Farmers with little knowledge in
Information technology, business management,
accounting principles and can make use of a computer or
a smart phone can use a professional dashboard with ease
to make informed decisions. This research uses a
explanatory cross-sectional design. Context diagram, use
case diagrams and data flow diagrams are designed to
show clarity on the study content. The study analyses two
research Hypotheses; (1) There is no statistically
significant relationship between dashboard acceptability
and age of farmers in Bayelsa State, Nigeria. (2) There is
no statistically significant relationship between dashboard
acceptability and educational level of farmers in Bayelsa
State, Nigeria. The total population of this study is 150
farmers in Bayelsa State, Nigeria. This research uses
SPSS as its statistical tool for analyses. Hypotheses are
tested with spearman correlation. The key findings of this
research shows that farmers would be willing to make use
of a business information dashboard to enable them have
access to professional insight to their business and
increase profitability. Among the recommendations of
this study are (1) Dashboard service providers should be
willing to train farmers on the use of the system and (2)
They should provide accounting analytics that would ease
complexities.
