Farms and agriculture businesses today are finding technology adoption and integration essential to the health of the organization. However, a farm's ability to communicate effectively is often restricted by infrastructure shortfalls or IT resource limitations. In fact, many agriculture employers find that most high-speed Internet providers do not serve their area, thus forcing them to turn to dial-up connections as the only option. Limited in their ability to upload and download larger files, these primitive connections often prove to be inadequate, and cause unnecessary frustrations as well as business interruptions.

Ag-Networks' Farm Direct solution is bringing high-speed Internet connectivity to America's rural farms. With speeds 40 to 50 times faster than dial-up connections, Farm Direct is making high-speed Internet a staple in rural America.

Farm Direct can be customized to fit the size of any agriculture operation and is also scalable to support future growth. In addition, dedicated and usage-based pricing plans help control business costs while providing an increased level of flexibility.

The Farm Direct solution provides rural farm operations with flexible, always-on high-speed Internet that can support a variety of business operations including:

• Business Internet/phone systems for internal operations
• Connectivity for precision agriculture technologies
• Internet/phone usage for workforces
• Delivery of agriculture information (market information, weather, industry news)
• International operation assimilation
