mean to you?
Automation plays a key role.
As an agro processor, to remain competitive, you need to find
innovative ways to improve efficiency in weighing, grading
and receipting of produce collected from farmers at the points
of collection. You also gain an edge, if you can develop direct
relationships with farmers and avoid losing them to your
competitors.

2. Tools like Agrimanagr once deployed, enable agro business to reduce turn-around time that usually
occur between the collections of agro-produce from the farmer to the time payments are made. In
addition, it provides accurate and real-time information to farmers through their handheld devices and
also facilitates cashless payment of your customers or suppliers.
Understanding Importance of Automation in Managing Your Agro-produce Purchase Business
Effective management of all kinds have become an essential part of running modern businesses,
particularly because no business manager worth his salt would want to lose customers for any
reasons, including oversight in produce purchase transactions. With stiff competition, proper
management of farmers’ produce purchase transactions is today, more than ever before, important
and requires complete automation. Virtual City’s Agrimanagr plays a key role in facilitating this.
Agrimanagr produce purchase software works in the following ways:
a) It supports your purchase process by accumulating and generating timely updates on farm
products information and on the other hand, it initiates proper distribution of the information.
b) It imposes automated produce purchase transactions through a tracking process. Whereas the
manual system of produce purchase transactions may be highly subjected to human error or
outright fraud, the automated process has no room for error or incidences of fraud. This is
because figures generated will be transferred from a database system to handheld devices
directly - using Bluetooth technology - without any form of human interference.
In essence, Agrimanagr produce purchase solution ensures accuracy, faster information sharing and
farmer loyalty, once you deploy it into your produce purchase business.
Why You Should Secure Farmer Loyalty
In order for you to appreciate the value of a mobility solution like Agrimanagr, it is imperative to note
that recurring cases of inefficiency of manual handling of produce transactions and the high instances
of generating errors are two of the main reasons for the increase in the churn rate of farmers to other
competitors.
Eliminate these negative effects by deploying an automated produce purchase solution and you
immediately stimulate timely and repeat deliveries from your suppliers. This is a great way to secure
customer loyalty from farmers. The automated solution will help you improve customer service with
farmers through several means, such as being able to print receipt for farmers at collection points,
view account of deliverable activities and better accountability, through electronic weighing.
