TIFTON, GA – August 10, 2007 – Industry innovator Ag-Networks announced today that it is launching its direct deposit payroll solution designed for agriculture workers with Flowers Brothers Produce in Tifton, GA. Flowers Brothers farm and packing house staff will benefit from the security and convenience of bank accounts.

Ag-Networks locates a mobile office at the farms headquarters where computers and software phones provide an atmosphere of learning and belongingness. Workers that normally could not afford computers now have the luxury of online banking. The company also has financial literacy and product training initiatives that will ease the transition of the worker to its services.

“We are glad to be able to help out our workforce by working with Ag-Networks. Not only does our company save money by eliminating paper checks and administration hours, we help the community by making the farm a better and safer place to work.” said Beau Flowers, President of Flowers Brothers Produce.

The Pathway Payroll Program™ is designed specifically for the transient worker. With a secondary companion card feature, funds sharing capabilities save cardholders a considerable amount of money when compared to traditional money wiring services. Transfers are executed in near real-time and keep individuals from waiting in lines and traveling long distances to receive the money.

“The idea is to provide workers with the tools to save and plan for the future of their families. Financial literacy and hands-on bilingual agents will give the workers the helping hand they need to identify these savings and take advantage of this lifestyle improvement,” states Michael Hammond, CEO of Ag-Networks.

Ag-Networks is a provider of broadband satellite and financial services to rural America. The company’s AgriCom Service Center, offers a complete portfolio of products and services designed to provide agricultural workforces with a convenient and low cost alternative for executing basic financial transactions. In addition, Ag-Networks’ Pathway Payroll Program™ automates the payroll process for employers and eliminates the costs and headaches associated with traditional paper check distribution.
