Wouldn't it be great if everyone had access to a seamless flow of information via the internet. Whether you worked in a metropolitan area or a remote farming region, the software or data needed to keep your business running efficiently could be downloaded quickly and affordably.

In reality, farmers are frequently forced to use their ingenuity to find their closest internet hot spot, whether it is in a particular position at the far end of the farm or in a distant town.
