Abstract

The Chemical Information Database is an information system that will aid agricultural customers in the selection and ordering of herbicide chemicals for post treatment of weeds and grasses in their growing crops of com and soybeans. The system allows the user to order herbicide chemicals of their choice and have the option to print an invoice and/or email the invoice to the store. The user is also allowed to enter an Herbicide Rate and Additive Worksheet and enter data such as acres, sprayer size, gallons per acre applied, selection of the chemical being used, and the application rate of the chemical being used. The system will then calculate a total order of herbicide and additive and a calculation of how much herbicide and additive should be added to each individual load being sprayed. The user also has the capability of printing this worksheet for future reference. All orders are stored in the appropriate tables for future reference. This report will cover the design and implementation of the database. Introduction topics discussed include, background of the problem, statement of the problem, objectives of the project, and system overview. This report will then discuss the processes involved in the successful completion of this project. Topics discussed include, system analysis and design, system implementation. At the end of the report system testing will be discussed and a conclusion stating future enhancements and what lessons were learned by completing the project will be discussed.
