520 | _aABSTRACT The introduction of information communication technologies has changed traditional agricultural practices into modern ones that have impacted the agricultural supply chain. The study aimed to find the effect of information communication technologies on the supply chain management of farmers in Liberia. The study used the Cochran sample size technique to determine the sample size. The final sample size of 147 was used for the study. The study used electronic questionnaires to collect the data from the farmers in Liberia. The snowball sampling strategy was used to identify the farmers who responded to the questionnaires. The study found from the matrix correlation analysis that the supply chain management of the farmers has a positive and significant relationship with the information they receive through the internet, radio, television, and mobile phones. The results from the path analysis show that the information the farmers received from the internet, television, and radio had a positive but insignificant effect on supply chain management. The study results showed that information that farmers received through mobile phones positively and significantly affected supply chain management.
