SAP Rural Sourcing Management

country Malaysia

Designed for agribusiness companies. Based on the SAP Business Technology Platform, this supply chain management (SCM) software connects smallholder farmers to the agricultural value chain. SAP Rural Sourcing Management is a cloud-based solution for enhanced management of sustainability data through digitally recorded information on producers, their farms, and their communities at every level of the value chain. Field agents collect data on farmer registration, purchasing and processing of produce, and transportation records. These field agents can work for local cooperatives, local or regional producers but also global traders or producers who want to directly connect with the smallholder farmers as their original source of agricultural commodities.
