(A/D/C Seminar Report No. 14), The report of a meeting on Minimum Information Systems for Agricultural Development in Low Income Countries in Oxford to discuss problems and approaches in the development of more adequate information systems. Summarizes the major points in the papers presented. Identifies the principal users of agricultural information and the types of information they read. Identifies the principal suppliers of agricultural information and the types of information they can provide. Reviews some of the more critical methodological issues in supplying information. Discusses information and identifies some critical areas for future action. The discussion focuses on the supply of information about agricultural commodities which can be generated within the agricultural sector. The strategic part of information systems is the careful design of the systems as part of the overall social system. The function of the minimum information system is to produce information to respond to uncertainty and to promote positive change.
