The most ubiquitous application area yalyaetsya crowdsourcing solution of intellectual tasks. This open source software development, and the creation of knowledge bases such as Wikipedia, and the development of creative marketing campaigns, and assistance in business development, experts OmniVideniya practiced within OmniSorsinga.
But it turns out the scope of the crowdsourcing is not limited only to intellectual tasks. And Russian company "State Farm named after Lenin" has already proved it, using crowdsourcing for agriculture.
The fact is that now June - the time of harvest of strawberries. Strawberries are a lot of hands a little, so the farm and invited to participate in its collection to the public. Anyone can come and help with the harvest. This tenth of collected kindly given as a reward assistant. For voluntary workers organized free buses from the metro and back. According to witnesses, wishing to participate very much.
Fair to say that crowdsourcing in this case is justified for one hundred percent. Firstly, it is not necessary to keep a permanent staff workers for the harvest, which in lean months would be nothing to do. Second, do not need to fool with money wages and the consequent red tape in the form of taxes and other deductions. I think it is very reasonable!
Well, perhaps you need to pay tribute to the farm named after Lenin for creativity and participation in the development of crowdsourcing. Good luck!
