Elaboração de software para gestão de custos de gado leiteiro

Abstract

Considering the importance of information technology as a tool to optimize animal production, this study proposed the development of a web application that can be accessed via notebooks and smartphones. This software will have the ability to collect, store, and calculate data, aiming to assist dairy producers in managing their properties through production cost analysis. The main motivation behind this project is the reduction of losses and the promotion of more efficient management. Software and applications were used to support the development of the project. After development, tests were conducted to verify the accuracy and reliability of the application in calculating and providing data. This study concludes that the implementation of an intuitive software, accessible on devices such as notebooks and smartphones with internet connection, along with the validation and disclosure of property data, combined with the system's ability to provide cost information at three different levels - effective operational cost, total operational cost, and total cost - to determine gross margin, net margin, and profit, represents an effective solution to meet the demand for technological advances in the agricultural sector.
