Agricultural Traceability, Agriculture 4.0, Mobile Application, Design Science ResearchAbstract
Traceability of vegetable products is a market requirement and became mandatory in Brazil in 2018. This article shows the results of the digital transformation of physical documents from the production areas and the use of harvest batches to track fruit loads, via mobile application, under Design Science Research, at Cooperativa Agroindustrial Nova Aliança. The initial evaluation cycle allowed the use of this application by 127 families, representing 30.97% in the 20/21 harvest. The solution replaced records in physical documents, improved production traceability on 20 million kilograms of grapes, reduced load compliance issues, showed viability in agriculture and has been widely used by farmers.
