Developing of web-based knowledge platform for agricultural production in a controlled environment

Abstract

This paper describes developing a web-based knowledge platform, which would become a 'meeting place' on the Internet for all interested market participants (stakeholders) in business with agricultural production in a controlled environment - greenhouses. The developed platform will allow better visibility of the agricultural products and their positioning in the market, better advertising of the products and increase the possibility of creating products according to market demands. Proposed approach will concentrate the knowledge and information so that every single participant in the market will get timely and appropriate responses to his questions and issues. That way of solving the problems will significantly shorten the time of searching for an answer and avoid 'wandering' that unnecessarily consume all the resources (time, money, energy).
