Abstract: – The purpose of this study was to speed the process of data commission to the RCPC. Which would easily monitor the pest and disease that affects the plants. So that monitoring the pest and disease that affects the plants and map out its existence will be natural and be taken. And also to avoid the migration of the pest from one place and to another. And to generate comprehensive reports for monitoring the pest and diseases. Many conclusions were drawn based on the result of the research and survey.Provincial Offices in Region VIII”, as an RCPC will be able to send reports whenever they are on the field at home or a vacation as long as the person can connect to a Wi-Fi or any internet provider. In this way, there will be no longer waiting for a day or a month to get their surveillance form to solve or to add a possible solution to the current diseases on the plants and to prevent the migration of pest and disease.The researcher recommends using an android tablet instead of mobile phones since the website is dealing with charts and graphs (massive data) that requires a bigger screen to see. Adding additional features like messaging and not just focuses on the crops but also focus on other plants.

I. INTRODUCTION
Our world has changed a great deal with the aid of information technology, a general term that describes any technology that helps to produce, store, communicate, and disseminate information. Tasks that were once done manually or by hand have now become computerized, and the job can be complete with the single click of a mouse. With the aid of IT, the researcher wanted to streamline our business processes and to get information in ‘real time’ that is up to the minute and up to date. Data is the backbone of every system, thus playing a vital role in society today.
According to the Provincial Agriculture Office in Leyte, there are nine types of pests and 800 types of diseases currently existing in this province.
