VIVEIRO AÇAILÂNDIA: CATÁLOGO DE INFORMAÇÕES SOBRE AS PLANTAS DO VIVEIRO DE AÇAILÂNDIA

Abstract

It is evident that urban agriculture has been growing more and more, with residential vegetable gardens and urban afforestation. For this, there are places where different types of seedlings are provided, such as nurseries. Along with growth, there is the use of technological resources, which come with information and tools, to facilitate our day to day, available on devices such as cell phones or tablets. In that regard, this article presents the development of an application for mobile device, with information about the seedlings cultivated and made available by the Municipal Nursery of the city of Açailândia, in Maranhão, in order to generate a catalog for the place and for the population that want to know more about seedlings and who want to carry out or improve their planting and cultivation activities in horticulture in small spaces.The software was built using the Kodular tool. The information on the seedlings was extracted from a survey carried out at the Viveiro and complemented with data from specialized websites. The evaluations were carried out with 52 people, aged between 12 and 27, who installed and tested the application on their mobile devices. The results showed a good public acceptance regarding the utility and applications of the software.
