Sistema desktop para gerenciamento de culturas agrícolas

Abstract

Agriculture represents one of the main economic activities of Brazil, and considering that the southwest region of Paraná is predominantly agricultural, is crucial have tools that assist the management of cultures yielding information about production of each area. This control is important for farmers to decide which crops are more advantageous, for example. And for managers, responsible for associations and cooperatives, it is essential to have data that can guide the process of decisionmaking. This data can help to define the crops with better production, the regions most suitable for each type of crop and the regions that need encouragement and assistance to improve productivity. Thus, there was the possibility of implementing a desktop system, developed in Delphi language and Firebird data base, to facilitate control of agricultural crops. The system can be used by producers to control cultures and to manage crops and cost of production.
