| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A model that connects producers, consumers, and farmers’ markets was developed, and an information system was developed as a communication tool in order to collate the experience- and intuition-based know-how of producers and improve the value of their crops. However, the elderly comprise over 60% of the population employed in agriculture, and farmers are unwilling to utilize IT devices. In an effort to increase the IT utilization rate, a proof-of-concept test was conducted.
Therefore, we designed a new IT tool that connects producers with consumers. In addition, the study considered a user-friendly interface design, where elderly farmers can operate intuitively, and which enables the continuous use of the system in order to actively realize the application of IT to agriculture.
The study also investigated the ease of use in terms of the inputting, sharing, and viewing of information over a mobile device.
