Desarrollo de una aplicación en la nube que integra información disponible en internet para la optimización del proceso productivo en el sector primario, mitigando los efectos del cambio climático

Abstract

Climate change is a problem of global proportions that is currently impacting negatively to many sectors within which agriculture being directly dependent on weather fluctuations is affected. Important progress has been made in the implementation of mitigation strategies for the impacts of climate change through the use of science, technology and information, however, traditional small farmers They rarely have access to these strategies, so they are the ones mainly affected by it. serious problem that also becomes in a social sphere if it is considered that currently many individuals and families make their living from agricultural work. This project aimed to take advantage of the fact that there is currently open climate information and available on the internet to develop an application that provides recommendations for a better decision-making in the agricultural processes of traditional farmers in the region Cundiboyacence from the collection and processing of climate data from a web portal of the weather. To validate the developed tool, a socialization and feedback process was carried out with farmers from the municipality of Villapinzón, an important producer of potato both regionally and national and potato collection and marketing center. Modifications were made to improve some aspects of the application and integrate some functionalities from the opinions of the participants in the feedback process. This document is divided into four chapters, the first one describes the planting and justification of the problem with its objectives, the second includes the theoretical and referential framework associated with the research problem, while the third presents the methodological development of the project to reach the developed WEB application and finally the fifth present the conclusions obtained.
