Desenvolvimento de um aplicativo para recomendação de corretivos e fertilizantes com base em análise de solo

Fertilizer expenses directly impact the cost of production in agriculture. Therefore, it is important to use this input rationally to guarantee crop productivity without increasing production costs. Considering the growing use of technological tools in the rural sector, this project aimed to develop an application capable of interpreting soil analysis and recommending corrective and fertilizer recommendations for the cultivation of the main annual crops in Brazil. The development of the application used multiplatform technologies, so that it can be made available to several audiences. The methodologies used for the recommendations were the base saturation method for liming, the clay content for gypsum and the extraction tables for fertilization. As a result, this work created a database with nutrient extraction tables and the possibility of including other crops in the future. The generated application has the potential to bring significant benefits to agriculture at an affordable cost.
