Abstract/ Executive Summary:

A database is an organized collection of data. The data are typically organized to model relevant aspects of reality in a way that supports processes requiring this information. Database management systems (DBMSs) are specially designed applications that interact with the user, other applications, and the database itself to capture and analyse data. A general-purpose database management system (DBMS) of BRRI is a software system designed to allow the definition, creation, querying, update, and administration of databases.

Keywords: DBMS, AEZ , Agricultural Database

Location: BRRI HQ and all R/S of BRRI

Start Date: 31-07-2009

End Date: 30-08-2010

Program Area: Knowledge Management

Non-commodity: ICT

Objectives:

To maintain up-to-date information on rice and related crops and inputs
To provide rice and related information to other research divisions and interested persons.

Methodology:

Secondary data on rice and other important crops are collected periodically from BBS, Agricultural Marketing Directorate, Meteorological Department, Bangladesh Water Development Board, BADC and other sources periodically and computerized. We will make an agricultural database to initiate a database system where we can use updated software and database program. We will also make this database using SQL Server 2005 express edition/2008/2010 version. We can also use Oracle 9i/10g/11i version.

Funding Source:

1. Government

Budget: 100000

Total Budget (Tk.) : 100000

Achievement/Findings:

Existing databases have been updated. After developing database system for rice and rice related variable database traceability showed that it is easy and quickly to access, input and refers to any experiment and other usage. It is possible to trace and track the individual objects on the rice production and distribution process. Therefore, it is possible to apply this system in any cases of the food chains.
