How Jera IT Can Help You Boost Your Agricultural Business with Innovative IT Solutions 

Discover how Jera IT can provide you with IT support, security, strategy, and training tailored to the agricultural industry. 

The agricultural industry is vital for the economy, the environment, and society. According to the Scottish Government, the agricultural industry contributed £1.4 billion to the Scottish economy in 2019, employed over 67,000 people, and managed over 80% of the land area. But the agricultural industry also faces many challenges, such as climate change, market volatility, regulatory compliance, and global competition. To overcome these challenges, agricultural businesses need to embrace technology and innovation. 

But technology and innovation can also bring new challenges, such as IT complexity, cyber threats, skills gaps, and strategic alignment. That’s why agricultural businesses need a reliable and trusted IT partner who can help them leverage technology and innovation to achieve their goals. That’s why they need Jera IT. 

Jera IT is a leading IT service provider for the agricultural industry in Scotland. We have over 20 years of experience in delivering IT solutions that meet the specific needs and challenges of agricultural businesses. We have worked with various agricultural sectors, such as animal feed, farm machinery, and livestock.  

Whether you need IT support, security, strategy, or training, we have the expertise and the tools to help you boost your agricultural business. Here are some of the IT solutions we offer: 

IT Support 

We know that IT support is not a one-size-fits-all service. That’s why we offer flexible and customised IT support packages that suit your budget and your needs. Whether you need on-site or remote support, proactive or reactive support, or co-managed or fully managed support, we have you covered. 

We can help you with any IT issue, from hardware and software installation and maintenance, to network and cloud management, to backup and disaster recovery. We can also help you with IT procurement, vendor management, and project management. We have a team of certified and experienced IT professionals who are available 24/7 to assist you with any IT problem. We also use advanced tools like Cloud Radial to monitor your IT systems and provide you with real-time reports and alerts. 

We understand that IT support is not only about fixing problems, but also about preventing them. That’s why we offer preventive maintenance, regular updates, and best practice recommendations to keep your IT systems running smoothly and securely. We also understand that IT support is not only about technology, but also about people. That’s why we offer friendly, responsive, and professional service to ensure your satisfaction and trust. 

We know that IT security is crucial for your agricultural business. Cyberattacks can cause serious damage to your business, from data loss and downtime, to reputation damage and legal liability. According to a report by the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), the UK agricultural sector suffered 338 cyber incidents in 2019, with 121 of them being significant. The report also warned that the agricultural sector is increasingly vulnerable to cyberattacks due to the adoption of smart farming technologies, such as drones, sensors, and GPS. 

That’s why we offer comprehensive and robust IT security solutions that protect your data, your devices, and your network from any cyber threat. We use the NIST framework, a globally recognised standard for cybersecurity, to assess your current IT security posture and provide you with a roadmap to improve it. We also use cutting-edge tools like SBRC, CE, and Sentinel One to safeguard your IT systems from malware, ransomware, phishing, and other cyberattacks. We also provide you with security awareness training and policies to help you and your staff adopt best practices for IT security. 

We understand that IT security is not only about defence, but also about resilience. That’s why we offer backup and disaster recovery solutions that ensure your data and systems can be restored quickly and efficiently in case of a cyberattack or a natural disaster. We also understand that IT security is not only about compliance, but also about responsibility. That’s why we offer ethical, sustainable, and socially responsible IT security solutions that respect your privacy, your values, and your environment. 

IT Strategy 

We know that IT strategy is essential for your agricultural business. Technology can help you achieve your business goals, but only if you have a clear and coherent IT strategy that aligns with your vision, mission, and values. According to a survey by the Agricultural and Horticultural Development Board (AHDB), only 37% of UK farmers have a formal business plan, and only 15% of them review it annually. 

That’s why we offer IT strategy consulting and coaching services that help you plan, implement, and evaluate your IT strategy. We can help you with IT strategy development, IT budgeting, IT governance, IT innovation, and IT performance measurement. We can also help you with IT manager as a service, a unique service that provides you with a dedicated IT manager who can oversee your IT strategy and operations. We also use tools like Business Made Simple and Brilliant Assessments to help you create and execute your IT strategy. 

We understand that IT strategy is not only about technology, but also about business. That’s why we offer IT strategy solutions that are tailored to your agricultural sector, your market, and your customers. We also understand that IT strategy is not only about planning, but also about action. That’s why we offer IT strategy solutions that are agile, flexible, and adaptable to the changing needs and challenges of your agricultural business. 

IT Training 

We know that IT training is important for your agricultural business. Technology can help you improve your skills, knowledge, and productivity, but only if you and your staff are trained and competent in using it. According to a report by the Royal Society, the UK needs an additional 260,000 skilled workers in data science and artificial intelligence by 2030, and the agricultural sector is one of the key sectors that can benefit from these skills. 

That’s why we offer IT training services that help you and your staff learn and master the IT tools and techniques that are relevant to your agricultural business. We can provide you with IT training courses on Cloud Radial, a powerful platform that allows you to access your IT systems, reports, and tickets from anywhere. We can also provide you with IT training courses on security, support, products, and how to be a better IT manager. We also use tools like Canva and Adobe Cloud Suite to help you create and design your own IT training materials. 

We understand that IT training is not only about learning, but also about applying. That’s why we offer IT training solutions that are practical, hands-on, and interactive. We also understand that IT training is not only about skills, but also about mindset. That’s why we offer IT training solutions that are engaging, fun, and inspiring.
