Aplicación móvil agrícola con redes neuronales convolucionales para control de producción de hongos comestibles
Agricultural mobile application based on convolutional neural networks for the control of edible mushroom productionContenido principal del artículo
La producción de hongos comestibles es un sector agrícola en crecimiento que requiere control preciso de variables ambientales. Este estudio tuvo por objetivo desarrollar una aplicación móvil agrícola integrada con redes neuronales convolucionales para mejorar el control de información en la producción de hongos comestibles en NEOS, Bolivia. Se aplicó un enfoque mixto con metodología Scrum para el desarrollo del sistema BPM, implementando sensores IoT y algoritmos CNN. La muestra incluyó 50 productores (10 de NEOS y 40 de Chuquisaca). Los resultados mostraron una mejora del 25% en la detección temprana de contaminaciones y un incremento del 18% en la eficiencia de los procesos de colonización y fructificación. La aplicación permitió monitoreo remoto en tiempo real y generación automática de reportes, contribuyendo a la sostenibilidad y eficiencia productiva. Se concluye que la integración de tecnologías emergentes mejora sustancialmente la gestión en la producción de hongos comestibles.
Edible mushroom production is an expanding agricultural sector that demands precise control of environmental variables. This study aimed to develop an agricultural mobile application integrated with convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to enhance information management and production control of edible mushrooms in NEOS, Bolivia. A mixed-methods approach was applied, employing the Scrum framework for the development of a Business Process Management (BPM) system and implementing Internet of Things (IoT) sensors in conjunction with CNN algorithms. The study sample consisted of 50 producers (10 from NEOS and 40 from Chuquisaca). The results demonstrated a 25% improvement in early contamination detection and an 18% increase in the efficiency of colonization and fruiting processes. The application enabled real-time remote monitoring and automatic report generation, contributing to greater sustainability and production efficiency. These findings indicate that integrating emerging technologies can significantly enhance management and decision-making in edible mushroom production systems.
