INTRODUCTION

Agriculture is an important sector to the country’s economic development and it is the most important sector for developing countries like Malaysia. In fact it is one of the most important features that distinguish between the status of developing countries and developed countries. The same sector has contributed to the foundation of the Malaysian economy in the post-independence era in which at the time, the majority of people focus on the agriculture sector.

Nowadays, the agriculture sector is growing in Malaysia and it will become the most important sector in the future. In agriculture sector, to ensure the plants grow well and healthy, there are three elements that are essential to obtain the plants grow well and produce high yield and quality. Firstly is ensuring the crops got enough nutrients or fertilizer. Second is make sure the soil that uses is fertile and lastly make sure the pets is controlled closely. It is important to make sure the plants are needed enough nutrients and no pests can interfere with crop growth and all this kind of work are mostly using man power to fertilizer and pesticide the crops. This is difficult for farmer who employed in large scale plantations.

 By referring this situation, the Development of Integrated Crops Management System (DICM) was introducing to provide convenience and comfort in the agriculture sector. The purpose of the DICM system is to fertilize the crops automatically. This DICM system is actually giving fertilizer to the crops and has an additional function as a pesticide spray to the crops. This system will used to deliver the fertilizer to the plants and it will give a pesticide to the plants with a slide on the rod of iron. With this DICM system, it can be used in large-scale farming without using man power.

A DICM system is made to improve the quality of the plants to ensure the plants grow well and healthy and at the same time will reduce using man power to make the convenience and comfortable to the user.
