Construction of Simplified Traceability System of Agricultural Products Based on Android

Abstract

The complex agricultural supply chains make it difficult to validate whether agricultural products meet the quality standards. In the supply chain of agricultural products, traceability system is an effective means to ensure the quality and safety of agricultural products. In this study, an easy-to-use simplified traceability system of agricultural products (STSAP) for small and medium-sized enterprises was constructed based on Android. The proposed STSAP provided a high level of traceability and had the characteristics of friendly interfaces, simple operation, and automatic generation of traceability files. STSAP consisted of six functional modules: account management, site management, planting materials management, agricultural activity management, processing management, and traceability files management. These modules recorded soil fertility, crop growth stages, fertilization, irrigation, and pesticide application. Thus, this study helps farmers improve agricultural production and helps consumers trace production processes and transaction records.
