Source: NCSU COOPERATIVE EXTENSION, 9/17/21 You are invited to join the first quarterly NC Agriculture Digital Alliance meeting on October 13, 2021, from 1–2:30 p.m. Register online The purpose of the Alliance is for partners to learn, share, and
collaborate to support digital inclusion and equity among the agricultural
community. This includes sharing models and funding opportunities, finalizing a
broadband and agriculture mapping project, and collectively completing a
digital literacy assessment for agricultural communities inclusive of farmers,
farmworkers, and family members. The long-term objective is to promote better broadband infrastructure, adoption, and utilization to agricultural communities. Achieving our objectives would mean North Carolina’s rural agricultural areas would be connected via broadband and able to participate in the modern economy, receive health services, access educational opportunities, and many unconceived purposes. Visit the Broadband Resources page for information and ways to take
action on broadband issues.
Please contact Kenny Sherin if
you have questions or want to share resources.
