As you know, modern farms equipp many technological devices, the operation of which directly affects the volume of agricultural products, the period of readiness, their quality, shelf life, etc., in this regard, the issues of assessing the response time and reaction to information flows are relevant. The article presents the results of constructing a model based on real-time systems for assessing system stability and the response time of a subject (farmer) to information messages from IoT devices to the subject’s smartphone, depending on the time of performing current, priority and critical technological operations, their relevance, as well as on the level of information noise and the availability of resources. The analysis of the model revealed that an increase in the number of control objects and information messages increases the system response delay time from 0 to 36.5 hours which will especially depends on the receipt of priority and critical messages. The article offers solutions to reduce the response time, in particular by dividing the message flow into production and personal, resource optimization, using digital technologies (IoT), databases and improving the information skills of farmers.
