Abstract

This study aimed to clarify the effect of information technology (IT) education on the efficiency and effectiveness of working processes among agriculture corporations. Survey data on information levels from 222 agriculture corporations were collected from the Korean Agency of Education, Promotion, and Information Service in Food, Agriculture, Forestry, and Fisheries (EPIS) for a governmental white paper. Structural equation modeling was used for analysis. This study found that IT education increases the ratio of the use of information systems in working processes, especially given the use of data accumulated through information and communications technologies (ICT). The findings of this study suggest that the use of ICT data as an aspect of IT education is beneficial for the agricultural sector.

본 연구는 정보화 교육이 농업법인회사에 미치는 영향을 밝히는데 목적을 두었다. 이를 위해, 본 연구는 농림수산식품교육문화정보원에서 실시한 정보화수준 및 활용도 조사 보고서를 이용하여 구조방정식 모델 분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과, 정보화 교육은 소셜네트워크서비스(Social Network Services, SNS)를 활용하는 업무의 비율과 정보통신융합기술(Information and Communications Technologies, ICT)을 통해 축적된 데이터를 사용하는 업무의 비율에 긍정적인 영향을 주었다. 특히, ICT 정보시스템 활용은 조직 내 업무 효율성을 높이는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 결국, 업무 효율성은 농업 경영 조직의 업무 효과성을 증대시키는 것을 확인하였다. 따라서 농업분야에 대한 정보화 교육은 ICT를 활용한 정보시스템 교육을 중점으로 하여 이뤄져야 할 것이다.
