The Use of Agroxml Standard for data exchange processes in the Cotton Culture

The exchange of data among processes in computer systems is a challenge in heterogeneous environments, they are created with independent structures in terms of exchange, the use of consolidated standards for data exchange is key to an effective solution for communication between computer system heterogeneous. The integration of technologies used in different processes in the course of agricultural production is a challenge in terms of uniformity of information. The integration of various data processes in the production of cotton is an example of the difficulty of the structural point of view, the data format for the interchange between the various processes involved is critical to provide traceability of the product of logical drives in all its stages . The AgroXML provides the necessary structure for the exchange within the scope of the proposed approach in this work. The proposed scope of the research refers exclusively to trace the logical units in the productive chain of cotton using AgroXML as a format for standardization of data across heterogeneous systems. The use of AgroXML the proposed framework for standardization of data will be collected during the productive chain of cotton, is intended to present a model in high-level modules available the current version of AgroXML applied to existing processes in the production chain.
