National farmer-owned cooperative Land O’Lakes has brought together nearly 50 ag, food, tech, and healthcare organizations to close America’s digital divide.
Land O’Lakes spearheaded the American
Connection Project Broadband Coalition to advocate for public and private sector
investments in rural broadband.
Tina May, chief of staff to the CEO and vice president of rural services with Land O’Lakes, says the coronavirus pandemic highlighted the need for improved broadband.
“When COVID-19 hit, the internet became more important than the road in front of your house or your farm,” he says.
