THE USE AND APPROPRIATION OF INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGIES IN FAMILY FARMING: A SYSTEMATIC MAPPING OF LITERATURE

Abstract

The production generated by agriculture is a source of direct and indirect income of several families, consequently undergoing frequent changes, among which new forms of production management are punctuated to new mechanisms of monitoring the work performed, some of these complications have been caused by the advent of technologies. With this, this manuscript deals with the insertion and appropriation of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in activities related to family farming. Having as objective to subsidize information and verify how the insertion of technologies occurs to contribute to the development of agribusiness, besides identifying how the use of IT CTs can make something routine in the routine of family farmers. Thus, a systematic mapping of the literature was carried out, with research carried out in the Capes, Web of Science and Google Scholar's Journals, using bardin's Content Analysis Method (2011), to perform data collection and treatment qualitatively. As a result of this research, the increase in interest on the part of farmers in using technologies as a way to benefit the development and management of their activities is pointed out, however, it is noted that producers and stakeholders still identify the need to perform this type of monitoring simultaneously in relevant manuscript records, appropriating the necessary materials.
