ABSTRACT
The softwares for the management of dairy herd available in the market were studied considering the expectations of the rural producer. Twenty-three farmers whose properties were computerized were interviewed. It was used a qualitative semi-structured questionnaire containing 49 questions 46 of them were multiple choice and 3 open ones. The proportionate results and the quality of the information were the most important criteria for specific software in helping the administrative decisions. In spite of the training, so much for data collection as for the use of the softwares, it was little valued by the producers. The results showed that the use of these systems is fitting the expectations of the user especially in the zootechnic and administrative areas.
