Abstract: Abstract Agriculture is the backbone of food production that contributes to the nation’s growth. Recently, the revolution in information technology (IT) such as the Internet of Things (IoT), smart farming, and Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies have successfully transformed agribusiness. Numerous prior studies have documented the success of these IT applications in achieving agribusiness performance. Despite the rapid growth of IT applications in the agriculture sector, previous studies have shown limited and poor utilisation of IT due to several issues in managing IT resources such as a short supply of infrastructure development, lack of young participation in the agriculture industry, and limited access to financial support from related parties. Therefore, this paper proposes a conceptual model that provides an overview of how Information System (IS) resources are managed for agribusiness performance. Based on the notion of the Resource Management model within the resource-based view (RBV) theory, this paper introduces a process model of how value is generated from IS resources. The paper examines the subject, concepts, and objectives for the upcoming study using a variety of works of literature from several disciplines. This study may provide insights into how IS resources are managed in agriculture, thus unlocking the IS potential for achieving agribusiness performance.
