Abstract
Agricultural precision management (APM) is based on the smart supply chain (SSC) and uses relevant smart technologies to realise the smart operation of the entire life cycle of agricultural products. However, theoretical frameworks for APM to guide its practice are lacking. This study adopts the inductive multi-case study method, taking four agricultural companies from China as the research object to investigate the current situation of APM based on SSC. Through interviews and critical analysis, this study proposes a theoretical framework for APM. First, we obtain the factors influencing APM capabilities based on SSC. Second, the relationship between APM capabilities and performance is expounded. Finally, we analyse the role of agricultural policies and the rapid response of agricultural supply chains as moderators. This study provides a new theoretical reference for APM research and an important management perspective for related companies to implement APM.
