This study was conducted from August 2017 to April 2018 in all the municipalities/cities of Cavite having dragon fruit farms to develop a dragon fruit production mapping system for a sustainable supply chain management. Specifically, the study aimed to: 1. determine the problems encountered in the present supply chain management of dragon fruit; 2. determine the current locations of dragon fruit producer in Cavite; 3. determine the current situations and conditions of the dragon fruit producers in Cavite; 4. identify and assess the key players in the dragon fruit supply chain; 5. develop the dragon fruit production map with the use of Geographic Information System; and 6. propose recommendations to improve the sustainability of the dragon fruit supply chain in Cavite. Descriptive research was used in this study along with design and development methodology as a guide in developing the system. There are 30 dragon fruit farms in Cavite. All of them were included as participants of the study because every producer of dragon fruit is significant for the study. Out of 30 farms, 15 are from Indang, five are from General Emilio Aguinaldo, three are from Alfonso, two are from Amadeo, Silang, and Tagaytay and one is from Magallanes. None of the farms was located from other towns/cities of Cavite. It was observed that the farms are located at the southern part of Cavite.
Interviews, field visits, observations, and geographic coordinate findings were done to gather the necessary information needed. The information required were the names and addresses of the owners, contact information, and other data related to these farms. The data gathered were needed in the development of an information system. The information system acted as a mapping system which helps in locating dragon fruit farms in Cavite. This system filters the best farms the users requested to locate. A navigation guide provides the shortest possible route in going to the farm. The system was evaluated by the farmers, owners, and the Department of Agriculture to assess its efficiency and accuracy. The result of the system evaluation was excellent because the system meets the intended function in different aspects. It was recommended that the system should be installed in a government organization like Office of the Provincial Agriculturist to promote and advertise the system. Through this, the supply chain management will be greatly empowered since it includes accurate information which is accessible to all.
