Because the use of cell phone and tablet technologies is increasingly present in Brazilian homes, including rural properties, Embrapa and the State University of Campinas (Unicamp) are developing, in partnership, programs that aim to train professionals and rural producers.
According to the supervisor of Embrapa's Technology Transfer Department (DTT), Michell Costa, the development of these apps, besides delivering information to people, strengthens the interaction between Embrapa and the National Agency for Technical Assistance and Rural Extension (Anater).
The research under way aims to produce methodologies for developing content for rural extension professionals, so that the actions are focused on the reality of the target audience, which is the rural producer.
