Trazabilidad para la cadena de suministro agrícola desde un enfoque informático

Abstract

Traceability is essential in the agricultural sector as a requirement in the supply chain, as it generates valuable information from cultivation to commercialization. In this paper we present a system that concentrates information on the different activities carried out in avocado orchards. The platform includes monitoring activities by connecting to a cloud database that allows access to the different processes that are recorded through a desktop application and a Web page. The system also controls the information that is generated in the maintenance log, as well as the supervision of the orchards through unmanned aerial vehicles that are currently essential to improve the conditions of the crops in the orchards. In this way, maintenance work is controlled efficiently, taking care of the environment through the proper use of fertilizers and other chemicals used in the agricultural field.
