Social Media_June_04_Biodiversity


<p>The primary cause of such huge biodiversity loss is our global food system. Our agriculture sector alone has been identified as a threat to 24,000 or 86% of the 28,000 that are at risk of extinction. This has become a serious concern, so it is important to change our global food production system to prevent biodiversity loss.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Here are three ways how we can tackle biodiversity loss in the global food system.</p>

<h2><strong>1. Switching the Global Diet to More Plant-Heavy Diets</strong></h2>



<p>Our food system today is heavily focused on an animal diet because there has been a disproportionate impact of animal farming on the environment, biodiversity, and land use. Shifting global diets will help reduce the impact of agriculture and animal farming on the environment due to reduced demand for certain products only.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Additionally, we have to start making an effort to reduce global food waste significantly to lessen the burden that the environment has to grow or farm our food. When these two methods are combined simultaneously, there will be less pressure on the environment and land, which slowly reduces species extinction.&nbsp;</p>



<h2><strong>2. Protecting More Lands</strong></h2>



<p>We know how land clearing/opening has progressed rapidly, and many of them are done for agriculture. Excessive conversion or exploitation of forest, land, and environment is certainly the fastest way to biodiversity loss.</p>



<p>It is important to understand that we need to protect more land and set them aside for nature or conservation. Conserving and restoring ecosystems as a whole will have a positive impact on biodiversity.&nbsp;</p>



<p>As previously mentioned in the first point, global dietary shifts will contribute to preserving the existing native ecosystem. When diets change, there will be no need to convert more lands for agriculture or farming. Then, the removed or degraded land can be restored as well.</p>



<h2><strong>3. Performing More Nature-Friendly Agriculture Practices</strong></h2>



<p>Our food production today relies heavily on potentially dangerous chemicals such as pesticides. It also heavily relies on additional inputs, including fertilizer, energy, land, water, heavy tilling, and monocropping. While these methods can improve the agricultural yield, they also threaten and destroy the natural habitat of animals and other organisms living in it.</p>



<p>To ease the burden caused by these inputs, we can perform more nature-friendly agriculture practices. This effort can be made by limiting inputs, practicing polyculture farming practices, and leveraging technology innovations to achieve sustainable productivity improvements.</p>



<h2><strong>Key Takeaway</strong></h2>



<p>These three steps are not dependent solutions; in fact, they are interconnected to each other. Agriculture companies are also responsible for this effort to tackle biodiversity loss. They have to start implementing more nature-friendly methods to protect the environment.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Use Nimbly to improve production and management to support agriculture practice that is in line with biodiversity preservation efforts.</p>

<h2><strong>What is Food Safety Management System?</strong></h2>



<p>The food safety management system refers to a comprehensive process covering a standard review of food service. It is applied to all stages of service, including food selection, preparation, display, packaging, as well as preservation. The main objective of this system is to certify that every food is properly served to customers while meeting the safety standard regulated by the government.</p>



<p>This system will also check all food elements regarding their quality, safety, and suitability for the general public. For instance, it suggests that the food preparation must meet the cleanliness standards; the food must be kept fresh and preserved at the right temperature; the display or packaging must be free from any contamination that might be harmful to customers.</p>



<h2><strong>The Importance of Food Safety Management System</strong></h2>



<p>In addition to providing the best food service for customers, another notable significance of the food safety management system is business protection. It prevents business owners from any potential problem because they have ensured that their food service meets the standard of food regulation.</p>



<p>Because of its general application, the system is also helpful in giving the same data to the owners and all employees. With this system, everyone will have the same information and standard in running the food service business. This results in increased efficiency and productivity in every aspect of the restaurant.</p>



<p>Food safety management system is considered more important during times like this when a pandemic is still going on in most regions. Those applying the system have a certified guarantee that the food they serve is perfectly safe and suitable to eat, thus, won’t interfere with any concern from customers.&nbsp;</p>



<h2><strong>Benefits of Having a Food Safety Management System</strong></h2>



<p>Involving a food safety management system in your restaurant brings a huge advantage for the business. Here are some of its tremendous benefits:</p>



<p>·       Boost your profits and save the business in the long run.<br>·       Avoid the risks of food poisoning or any harmful effects for the customers.<br>·       Increase the food’s safety and quality.<br>·       Provide a certain guarantee that you are compliant with the government regulation regarding food safety. <br>·        Make it easier to organize every step of processing, producing, and serving food in your restaurant.<br>·       Promote the productivity and efficiency of teamwork between your employees.</p>



<h2><strong>Key Takeaway</strong></h2>



<p>In conclusion, running a food safety management system in your restaurant is as important as running the restaurant itself. It will help you make sure that every step of food service, from selection to preservation, is done properly and complies with the standard of food safety.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Utilize a digital checklist such as Nimbly to help you manage and evaluate the process according to the food safety standard.</p>

02_4 Food Challenges_Swipe 2

Social Media_June_02_4 Food Safety


<p>Food safety has always been a challenge in the restaurant business, and more so in the COVID era. Luckily, various programs and systems are available to support restaurants in keeping food safety standards even during challenging times.</p>



<p>Here are three main challenges restaurants can expect to face during the pandemic.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img data-attachment-id="2694" data-permalink="http://hellonimbly.home.blog/2021/06/04/4-food-safety-challenges-during-pandemic-and-how-restaurants-can-handle-them/02_4-food-challenges_swipe-2/" data-orig-file="https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/06/02_4-food-challenges_swipe-2.png" data-orig-size="2250,2250" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}" data-image-title="02_4 Food Challenges_Swipe 2" data-image-description="" data-medium-file="https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/06/02_4-food-challenges_swipe-2.png?w=300" data-large-file="https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/06/02_4-food-challenges_swipe-2.png?w=1024" src="https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/06/02_4-food-challenges_swipe-2.png?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-2694" srcset="https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/06/02_4-food-challenges_swipe-2.png?w=1024 1024w, https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/06/02_4-food-challenges_swipe-2.png?w=2048 2048w, https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/06/02_4-food-challenges_swipe-2.png?w=150 150w, https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/06/02_4-food-challenges_swipe-2.png?w=300 300w, https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/06/02_4-food-challenges_swipe-2.png?w=768 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<h2><strong>1. Inconsistent Performance</strong></h2>



<p>Pandemic has raised the turnover in many restaurants, either by layoff or employee burnout. This led to inconsistent performance when it comes to applying food safety standards in the kitchens. New employees may not have experience in the kitchen, or they do not have food handler certificates and similar qualifications.</p>



<h2><strong>2. Cognitive Overload on Employees</strong></h2>



<p>Employees who stay may experience cognitive overload from additional demands imposed on them regarding service. Aside from facing all types of customers, employees must learn a handful of new rules and procedures. They must also make extra efforts in applying strict food safety standards.</p>



<p>All these extra tasks, heightened by pandemic anxiety, can cause stress and cognitive overload. They can cause employees to skip important parts in food safety standard procedures.</p>



<h2><strong>3. Disruption in Important Supply Chain</strong></h2>



<p>Restaurants must stock up important products and tools to apply food safety standards on a daily basis. However, a pandemic may disrupt the supply chain process, especially with the rising demand. This can reduce profits and increase food safety risks, especially if your daily operation is compromised.</p>



<h2><strong>4. Poor Maintenance and Cleaning</strong></h2>



<p>Kitchen maintenance and cleaning are important to comply with food safety and health standards. However, stress, high turnaround, cognitive overload, and disruption in regular activities and supply chain can reduce the quality of maintenance.</p>

<p>After identifying challenges, restaurant owners can devise solutions to maintain health and safety standards during the pandemic. Digital technology can help in performing tasks that support the efforts to maintain the standard. Here are several solutions restaurant owners can take:</p>



<h3><strong>&#8211; Create Practical Training Programs</strong></h3>



<p>A high turnover means every new employee must learn fast to adapt to the standard. Restaurant owners can solve this problem by creating a digital database consisting of practical training programs, which consist of several categories and task lists.</p>



<h3><strong>&#8211; Create Digital Checklist with Reminder</strong></h3>



<p>Use digital checklist software to keep track of important tasks and supplies. A checklist is great to prevent the effect of burnout and remind everyone to follow important procedures. The digital checklist can also be used to task the numbers of items in inventory and give a warning if certain items are low in numbers.</p>



<h3><strong>&#8211; Track Purchasing and Supplier List</strong></h3>



<p>Digital checklist software can also be used to track all the purchases a restaurant made, including when shopping for regular cleaning and maintenance supplies. Use the program to maintain the numbers of supplies and better communicate with suppliers.</p>



<h2><strong>K</strong>ey Takeaway</h2>



<p>Keeping high food safety standards is important during COVID times. Make sure to cooperate with employees and use supporting digital tools like Nimbly to keep the restaurant’s standard high.</p>

<h2><strong>1. Contactless Order and Payment</strong></h2>



<p>Contactless orders and payments have been around long before the pandemic, but they are becoming more popular. Limiting contact for common tasks like order and payment can reduce health risk and accommodate customers who are not comfortable dining in.</p>



<p>Many restaurants and similar businesses have become more familiar with e-wallet and e-money as transaction tools. Customers can also use special QR codes from the restaurant’s website to download the digital menu and order.</p>



<h2><strong>2. Online Reservation</strong></h2>



<p>Customers who still want to dine in can opt for an online reservation. This service allows customers to choose the tables they like based on availability and operational hours. It also reduces service lag from a busy phone line. You can use a digital tool that tracks table availability, floor activity, dining preferences, and other common information regarding the booking system.</p>



<h2><strong>3. Automated Inventory Management</strong></h2>



<p>A complete, well-maintained inventory is the key to a successful restaurant business. Digital management tools such as Nimbly provide automated functions for routine tasks such as inventory checking. It allows business owners to quickly check all the stocks, the input and output, and details of each item. This technology can also warn business owners when certain items are low in numbers.</p>

<h2><strong>4. Marketing Automation for Analytics</strong></h2>



<p>Data analytics are important features to review your restaurant business. You need an automated system that records important marketing elements such as customer demographics, the most and least ordered items, periods of highest profits, and many more. Digital management tools allow you to record them and turn them into a comprehensive data analytic system.</p>



<h2><strong>5. AR and VR</strong></h2>



<p>AR and VR have become more commonplace in countries like the United States. They allow restaurant owners to attract customers by showing the 3D images of food and beverage items as if they are just made. This technology will improve customer experience even without direct contact or visit.</p>



<h2><strong>Key Takeaway</strong></h2>



<p>Restaurants can flourish during a pandemic by applying new strategies based on the current trends supported by technology. Increasing health and safety measures, emphasizing online services, and finding new ways to serve customers are popular strategies to keep a restaurant in business.</p>



<p>Apply Nimbly in your management system to improve your business and keep customers coming.</p>

5 Strategies to Make Restaurant Business Flourish with Technology

Social Media_May_14_INF_F_B Tips


<p>The Food &amp; Beverage sector in Indonesia continues to grow rapidly. Based on data from the Creative Economy Agency (Bekraf), the number of culinary businesses in Indonesia reached 5.55 million units or 67.66% of the total 8.20 million creative economy businesses to date.&nbsp;</p>



<p>If you are planning to expand your F&amp;B business to many more locations, or even to various regions, of course, you need to prepare yourself to encounter operational challenges. How do you manage multiple locations of the F&amp;B business unit at the same time so that they are consistent and of high quality?&nbsp;</p>



<p>Check out the challenges and tips for dealing with them below.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img data-attachment-id="2670" data-permalink="http://hellonimbly.home.blog/06_may_f_b-business_blog/" data-orig-file="https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/05/06_may_f_b-business_blog.png" data-orig-size="2250,8783" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}" data-image-title="06_may_f_b-business_blog" data-image-description="" data-medium-file="https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/05/06_may_f_b-business_blog.png?w=77" data-large-file="https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/05/06_may_f_b-business_blog.png?w=262" src="https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/05/06_may_f_b-business_blog.png" alt="" class="wp-image-2670" /></figure>



<h2><strong>Balance the Time and Attention</strong></h2>



<p>When you have more than one F&amp;B business unit, the first challenge you will face is to divide your time and attention equally into each branch of your F&amp;B business. You will probably invest more time and energy in the initial branch opening. You will certainly want to move your team from your first unit to your second unit.&nbsp;</p>



<p>The experienced staff can certainly help to make the onboarding of new team members in new branches easier. However, taking too much time and old team members can endanger the quality of service to guests at your flagship branch.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Therefore, you need to plan and divide your time to all the locations that you have as best as possible by scheduling regular visits. By visiting each unit regularly, you will be able to get&nbsp;feedback&nbsp;from your team, and you can also take actions based on your observations at each location.</p>



<h2><strong>Monitor and Manage the Overall F&amp;B Business Performance&nbsp;</strong></h2>



<p>Being a multi-unit F&amp;B manager means that you are turning the daily operating issues in each branch into all problems in the company. You are not only concerned about sales at one location but also how sales at a specific location will impact the health of the entire company.</p>



<p>The solution to this issue is to use technology to assist you in monitoring and managing the performance of your F&amp;B business unit both globally and per location. Making an investment in a cloud-based software&nbsp;such as Nimbly&nbsp;will give you full visibility into how the operations in each of your business units are going in real-time.&nbsp;</p>



<p>You can check whether the SOP has been implemented correctly, the location cleanliness and food safety are guaranteed, the stocks in the kitchen are in line with sales, and other operational aspects. Based on the visibility of these aspects, you can immediately handle the issues.</p>



<h2><strong>Create a Consistent&nbsp;Customer Experience&nbsp;</strong></h2>



<p>Apart from efficiency and visibility, the biggest challenge in managing a multi-unit F&amp;B business is to ensure that customers get the same dining experience at any branch and whenever they make a transaction.</p>



<p>Create a questionnaire for hygiene and safety checks both on outlets&nbsp;or food. Performing regular checks and analysis of report data results to find out the daily condition of your business unit. Also, include a reference about how the menu should be displayed and served.</p>



<p>To properly maintain the quality standards across your branches, you will need digital questionnaires. By using a digital audit system, you can ensure that auditors in the field use the same questionnaire and system for each location. You can also attach the module as a visual reference for your auditors in conducting the audit.&nbsp;</p>



<p>If all auditors use the same system to audit the field, you can gather the insights more accurately and get a better picture of the operational quality of the organization as a whole.&nbsp;</p>



<h2><strong>Key Takeaway</strong></h2>



<p>Those are some tips you can apply to improve the multi-location F&amp;B business you have now. Hope you find this useful!</p>

Tips for Managing Food and Beverage Businesses in Multiple Locations

Social Media_May_13_Franchise


<p>There are many kinds of models and concepts of doing business, each of them has its own advantages and disadvantages. One business model that has a high level of profit is franchise business. Franchise business is a method of opening a business with existing licenses and trademarks, such as 7-Eleven and McDonalds.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img data-attachment-id="2662" data-permalink="http://hellonimbly.home.blog/13_franchise_swipe-2/" data-orig-file="https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/05/13_franchise_swipe-2.png" data-orig-size="2250,2250" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}" data-image-title="13_franchise_swipe-2" data-image-description="" data-medium-file="https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/05/13_franchise_swipe-2.png?w=300" data-large-file="https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/05/13_franchise_swipe-2.png?w=1024" src="https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/05/13_franchise_swipe-2.png?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-2662" srcset="https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/05/13_franchise_swipe-2.png?w=1024 1024w, https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/05/13_franchise_swipe-2.png?w=2048 2048w, https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/05/13_franchise_swipe-2.png?w=150 150w, https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/05/13_franchise_swipe-2.png?w=300 300w, https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/05/13_franchise_swipe-2.png?w=768 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<h2><strong>Why a franchise?</strong></h2>



<p>Opening a franchise means expanding the brand&#8217;s network. If you own this business and someone else is interested, the opening of the franchise will be funded by a third party. Therefore, you don&#8217;t have to spend money to build or open new branches. It means the business will grow faster with less capital.</p>



<p>Supervision of the franchise business is also considered easier because the responsibility lies with each franchise owner. It is much simpler than a business owner having someone to supervise his business branch.</p>



<p>In addition, it is also possible that the supervisor will resign someday. It is different if the supervisor is the franchise buyer himself; of course, they will not waste the money they have invested in building the franchise.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Their commitment to developing the franchise will certainly be bigger and more motivated in carrying out franchise managerial work. The risk incurred for the franchise business is also less. This is because franchise business management usually already has an organized system.</p>



<p>Talking about risk, it is closely related to the standardization that each franchise branch must have. If a business owner wants his business to last, he is obliged to pay attention to the standard operations for all franchises so that the business is also consistent and not easily disrupted.</p>

<h2><strong>The Importance of Standard Operations in Franchise Business</strong></h2>



<p>Imagine if you were the owner of a restaurant business with several franchise branches. One of your restaurant franchise branches is known for its unmannered and unfriendly service to buyers. It will inevitably affect other branches and the brand image of your restaurant entirely. Even though this only happens in one branch, over time people will stop going to your restaurant</p>



<p>Therefore, you need to pay attention to consistency in running the business network operating standards. Here are some things that must be considered so that your franchise can provide consistent products and services:</p>



<ul><li>Implementing guidelines or rules for several aspects in all franchise branches, especially in customer service, cleanliness, and marketing.</li><li>Maximize training for franchise owners and employees so that the results are maximal as well.</li><li>Maintain communication. Communication problems often occur between franchise owners and certain branches. Thus, regular visits to just communicate are very important.</li></ul>



<h2><strong>Application in Standard Operational Management</strong></h2>



<p>Certainly, it is difficult for you to ensure every franchisee is operating according to your company&#8217;s standards, especially if you already have many branches. If you think that maintaining standard operation is a challenge, then you don&#8217;t need to worry. There is one application that can help you transform the traditional franchise supervision process into a more practical and modern one, namely Nimbly Technologies.</p>



<p>One of the special features of Nimbly Technologies&nbsp;is carrying organizational management, from the manual checklist data into real-time information. You only need to send an operational audit questionnaire to each branch and know the condition of each branch in just one application, anytime and anywhere. Thus, you don&#8217;t have to visit franchise branches one by one if you want to check their SOPs implementation.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Coordination of problems in the field can also be done through this application. It means that all of the company&#8217;s operational processes, which were originally manual, can be monitored digitally and can be directly followed up live. Isn’t it practical?</p>



<h2><strong>Key Takeaway</strong></h2>

<p>The unprecedented impact caused by the COVID-19 pandemic has knocked down the QSR industry with a big loss. However, many believe that 2021 would be the beginning of the end of the pandemic.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Then, what can restaurateurs prepare for the post-covid competition? Here are 4 strategies that can be applied:</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img data-attachment-id="2654" data-permalink="http://hellonimbly.home.blog/05_may_strategies_blog-long-1/" data-orig-file="https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/05/05_may_strategies_blog-long-1.png" data-orig-size="2250,9812" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}" data-image-title="05_may_strategies_blog-long-1" data-image-description="" data-medium-file="https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/05/05_may_strategies_blog-long-1.png?w=69" data-large-file="https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/05/05_may_strategies_blog-long-1.png?w=235" src="https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/05/05_may_strategies_blog-long-1.png" alt="" class="wp-image-2654" /></figure>



<h2><strong>1. Ensuring Customer Safety</strong></h2>



<p>Preventive measures to protect customers from the coronavirus is a priority amid the pandemic. Even if the pandemic ends, providing a clean environment and reducing the risk of germs for the sake of customer safety must always be the top priority. At the same time, this step increases customer trust in the post-covid era.</p>



<p>A study conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reveals that every year 48 million people get sick from foodborne illnesses, 128,000 are hospitalized, and 3,000 die. The most common bacteria found in restaurants are salmonella, E. coli, and listeria, which can cause food poisoning.</p>



<h2><strong>2. </strong><strong>Prioritizing Cleanliness in Marketing Strategy</strong></h2>



<p>The next step that is no less important is prioritizing cleanliness in marketing strategy. This can be done by giving customers peace of mind and letting them know that their safety is prioritized.</p>



<p>These efforts don&#8217;t stop at the customer&#8217;s table. This strategy should also be marketed on menus, food service products, and social media to foster confidence in a safe return.</p>



<h2><strong>3. Refamiliarizing Employees on Proper Cleaning &amp; Sanitation Procedures</strong></h2>



<p>In addition to focusing on providing peace of mind to customers, restaurant managers or owners must pay attention to staff cleanliness and tidiness. This step can be done by conducting routine disinfection and holding training for the staff on proper cleaning and sanitation procedures.</p>



<p>In return, this step will directly provide accurate evidence about your efforts in providing the best service. In addition, this effort will also provide additional value and a good image to your restaurant.</p>



<h2><strong>4.&nbsp; Innovating for Further Improvement</strong></h2>



<p>Continuously innovating and adapting to change is the key to achieving success in any situation. Now is the time for any restaurant to innovate. For a few examples, providing contactless deliveries and touchless payment, online or in-app ordering, using tamper-evident bands and seals, etc.</p>



<p>Every new update, breakthrough, and convenience will give customers a new experience and good impression. This effort will make your restaurant stand out from other competitors.</p>



<h2><strong>Key Takeaway</strong></h2>



<p>Many, especially restaurateurs, are starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel in 2021. By ensuring safety,prioritizing cleanliness, as well as adopting innovations, a restaurant can make their customers quickly return and stand out in the post-covid competition.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Covid-19 has further led us to the vulnerable agricultural landscape. By maximizing the use of technology, precision agriculture is believed to be one method in farming that can achieve efficiency and productivity in this difficult time.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Let’s find out how it can benefit farmers! These are 4 advantages of applying precision agriculture for farmers:&nbsp;</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img data-attachment-id="2639" data-permalink="http://hellonimbly.home.blog/2021/05/21/how-precision-agriculture-benefits-farmers/03_may_precision-agriculture_blog-long/" data-orig-file="https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/05/03_may_precision-agriculture_blog-long.png" data-orig-size="2250,9070" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}" data-image-title="03_May_Precision Agriculture_Blog &#8211; long" data-image-description="" data-medium-file="https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/05/03_may_precision-agriculture_blog-long.png?w=74" data-large-file="https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/05/03_may_precision-agriculture_blog-long.png?w=254" src="https://hellonimblyhome.files.wordpress.com/2021/05/03_may_precision-agriculture_blog-long.png" alt="" class="wp-image-2639" /></figure>



<h2><strong>1.&nbsp; Reducing Expenditure By 30% On Agriculture&nbsp;</strong></h2>



<p>The agricultural sector has noticed the impact of technology developments such as Machine learning (ML) modeling, drones and AI robots, and integrated data analysis on the farming sector. A study has shown that incorporating AI into farming operations has led to a 30% drop in expenditure on farming.&nbsp;</p>



<p>AI-driven bots and drones fasten the process of harvesting crops with greater care, resulting in better productivity outputs.&nbsp;</p>



<h2><strong>2.&nbsp; Addressing an Estimated $43 Billion Losses From Crop Lost</strong></h2>



<p>Due to weeds, farmers suffer losses of&nbsp; up to billions each year. With the use and the combination of more efficient AI-driven weeding robots and drones, farmers are allowed to:&nbsp;</p>



<ul><li>apply chemicals with greater precision</li><li>collect data analysis&nbsp;</li><li>receive early alerts on the appearance of invasive weeds</li></ul>



<p>A study in the US has proven that AI-supported precision farming can address an estimated $43 billion losses from crop loss due to weeds and ultimately help farmers keep weeds under control.&nbsp;</p>



<h2><strong>3.&nbsp; Allowing Farmers to Monitor All Crops in the Field And Soil Condition</strong></h2>



<p>Precision farming enables farmers to monitor all crops and soil conditions. It can be carried out with the support of AI-driven drones equipped with high-resolution cameras and sensors that are strategically placed in the farm. Additionally, farmers can process the data and create applicable decisions.&nbsp;</p>



<h2><strong>4. Cutting Maintenance Costs While Protecting the Environment</strong></h2>



<p>Data from the AI helps farmers know when to use fertilizers, pesticides, and herbicides, how much is needed, and where and when they can get the best results, leading to maintenance costs savings. Additionally, it reduces the number of chemicals released into the environment.</p>



<h2><strong>Key Takeaway</strong></h2>



<p>It can be concluded that precision farming is a modern method in agriculture practice beneficial to farmers to achieve efficiency and increase productivity, especially in the midst of this pandemic.</p>



<p>Use Nimbly to transform your manual operations into a digital checklist that helps you generate data-driven decisions. </p>
