Abstract

This paper empirically examines the role of ICT on agriculture by exploring the application of the theoretical prescriptions of the diffusion model to crop production, an agriculture subsector from 1985-2014. This research postulates that crop production can be achieved by increasing the availability, reducing the cost of ICT and utilising ICT in the crop production value-chain process. The OLS results showed that internet utilisation has a positive impact on crop production; mobile cell subscription has a negative impact in the short run while the correlation results showed that ICT adoption and crop production have a strong positive association.
