OROZCO, Óscar Arley  e  LLANO RAMIREZ, Gonzalo. Information systems focused on precision agricultural technologies applicable to sugar cane, a review. Rev. ing. univ. Medellín [online]. 2016, vol.15, n.28, pp.103-124. ISSN 1692-3324.  https://doi.org/10.22395/rium.v15n28a6.

Crops of sugar cane are one of the main economic activities in Colombia. Hence, this kind of crops is essential for the agricultural development of the country. Additionally, information and communication technologies (ICTs) are currently used and implemented throughout the entire life of the crop. Therefore, ICTs are important at the time of defining PA-based systems, capable of increasing crop efficiency and optimizing use of economic resources as fertilizers, water, and pesticides, among other functions. This article presents a review about the PA-based information systems applicable to sugar cane crops and making emphasis on technologies used, data management, and their architectures. Besides, the article makes a proposal of authors: a AP-based three-layer integral information system capable of facilitating optimization in different life stages of the sugar cane. This article concludes by describing the future work and the implementation of the system proposed.

Palavras-chave : Precision agriculture; sugar cane; crop efficiency; information system; decision support system.
