Background of the Study
Rural cooperatives play a crucial role in promoting economic development in rural areas by providing financial support to farmers and small businesses. However, these cooperatives often face difficulties in managing finances, which can be exacerbated by the lack of efficient systems to track and report financial activities. Accounting Information Systems (AIS) offer the potential to streamline financial management and ensure better resource allocation. This study will explore the challenges of implementing AIS in rural cooperatives within Dekina Local Government Area.

These include issues related to technical skills, financial resources, infrastructure, and resistance to change among cooperative members. Understanding these challenges is essential for ensuring successful AIS implementation in these cooperatives.
