Modelo de vigilância tecnológica de eventos agropecuários para promoção da transferência de tecnologias

Abstract

This research presents a model of technological surveillance of agricultural events. This model incorporates actions of collection, analysis and evaluation of the information of the events and diffusion of these to the rural producers throughout the national territory. To reach this result, the procedures used are characterized as applied nature, qualitative, exploratory approach, with bibliographic and observation procedures. The results indicate that information about events is not approached and disseminated efficiently through digital means to farmers. This highlights the need for such a model to provide surveillance of these and encourage technology transfer processes. For this purpose, a specific model was presented for technological surveillance of agricultural events and guidelines for compliance with eight stages. These stages are the capture, selection, valuation and diffusion of technological information of events in the Brazilian territory. The proposal includes the use of a smartphone application that, among its functionalities, discloses the information monitored by this model. This mechanism can bring the rural producer closer to all agricultural events held in the country and extends the possibilities of applying the technologies produced and disseminated in these events. With this, the digitization tendencies of the sector are followed, the difficulties of accompanying the events by the rural producers are minimized and it assists the State Agencies of Agricultural Research in the fulfillment of its premises for the agricultural development.
