The Body Mass Index (BMI) can be used by farmers to help determine the time of evaluation of the body mass gain of the animal. However, the calculation of this index does not reveal immediately whether the animal is ready for slaughter or if it needs special care fattening. The aim of this study was to develop a software using the Fuzzy Logic to compare the bovine body mass among themselves and identify the groups for slaughter and those that requires more intensive feeding, using "mass" and "height" variables, and the output Fuzzy BMI. For the development of the software, it was used a fuzzy system with applications in a herd of 147 Nellore cows, located in a city of Santa Rita do Pardo city -Mato Grosso do Sul (MS) state, in Brazil, and a database generated by Matlab software.KEYWORDS: computer system, IMC, Mamdani and profits. SOFTWARE PARA A AVALIAÇÃO DE GANHO CORPORAL DE REBANHO NELORE PELO ÍNDICE DE MASSA CORPORAL FUZZYRESUMO: O Índice de Massa Corporal (IMC) pode ser utilizado por pecuaristas para auxiliar na determinação do momento da avaliação de ganho corporal do animal. No entanto, o cálculo desse índice não revela imediatamente se o animal está apto ao abate ou se necessita de cuidados especiais para recuperação. O objetivo deste trabalho foi desenvolver um software utilizando a lógica fuzzy para a comparação da massa corporal de bovinos entre si e identificação dos grupos para abate, e dos que necessitam de alimentação mais intensa, utilizando-se das variáveis "massa" e "altura", e a saída IMCFuzzy. Para a elaboração do software, utilizou-se de um sistema fuzzy com aplicações em um rebanho de 147 vacas nelore, localizado em Santa Rita do Pardo-MS, e um banco de dados gerado pelo software Matlab.
It was used statistical techniques for the evaluation of agricultural experiments, but there are mathematical theories that allow finer adjustments, highlighting among them, the fuzzy logic. The objective of the study was characterizing a method of fuzzy modeling from an agronomic experiment. For this study it was used data from an experiment conducted at the School of Agriculture of São Paulo State University (UNESP) in Botucatu-SP. The system input variables based in fuzzy rules were soil water tension and doses of water salinity, being defined three fuzzy sets. The output variables was elected from the biometric and productivity analysis that showed statistically significant differences, namely, plant height, stem diameter, leaf area, green biomass, dry weight, number of fruits, average fruit weight and percentage of disabled fruits. For output variables 9 fuzzy sets were defined. From the adopted methodology, the model allowed extract directly from the data set a base of rules without the use of questionnaires to experts for its preparation. In addition, it will analyze intermediate regions at trial levels and weave other conclusions of the tomato growth and productivity, not limiting in this way only those observed with statistical analysis.
Tomato, the most popular greenery, is characterized by being a demanding crop in water and when in prolonged and severe drought, has limitations in its growth and reduction in productivity. In addition, this vegetable is affected by excess salinity in the water, which causes leaf wilting, apex and leaf edges burn until their death. Such effects generally are studied using statistical analysis, but there are mathematical theories that allow finer adjustments, highlighting among them, the fuzzy logic. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects on the growth and yield of hybrid tomato from different water tensions in the soil and different salinity doses in the irrigation at 120 days after sowing using fuzzy modeling. It was used data from an experiment that was conducted in the experimental area at the School of Agriculture of São Paulo State University (UNESP) in Botucatu-SP. The input variables of the fuzzy systems were irrigation and salinity, while the output variables elected were the biometric analysis and productivity that showed statistically significant differences. Analyses of the effects of irrigation and salinity were performed by means of three-dimensional graphics and the output variables contour maps. The variables studied here showed higher values, with exception of plant height for treatment with irrigation in field capacity and water salinity zero.
