Abstract

This work aimed to develop two computerized systems, modeled to record and provide information about family farming activities within Itapúa Department-Paraguay. Meetings were held with Government members and municipal technicians to obtain all the requirements and to gather all the details that are relevant for the development of the application. Thus, with all the available information, it was possible to organize and structure the two proposed systems to collect data on rural producers, their properties, their production, family composition, livestock production, processed products, infrastructure, input use, etc. As a result an application for Android called C7-SustenLAF and a Web system was developed, where the main application’s function is to carry out the data registration of the rural producers, thus providing georeferenced data, in turn the Web system has the purpose of generating and structuring the information as well as enable data retrieval by giving a series of filter options for different characteristics that are registered from the application. Thus, it is expected that these systems, used specifically to give information, can help the Government of Itapúa - Paraguay to take strategic actions and give support to the Family Farming field, contributing to better management and technical assistance to producers.
