Rural voices key to broadband expansion in Virginia, experts say

Increased government funding and infrastructure improvements have facilitated recent expansions of broadband services in rural America, though industry experts assert additional advancements are required. In a Jan. 12 panel discussion during the 2021 American Farm Bureau Federation Virtual Convention, farmers and telecommunications experts examined the difficulties farming communities face due to broadband shortages. According to the Federal Communications Commission’s 2020 broadband deployment report, 22.3 percent of rural Americans lack broadband services, which panelists concurred is of extreme detriment to some farmers and their communities. “Today, farmers who can be the most efficient with their time and can best use available resources and data are the ones who are going to be successful,” Jackie Mundt, a cow-calf and grain producer from Preston, Kansas, noted during the “Staying Connected in a Virtual World” session.

Despite 2020 s disruptions, the holidays can still be happy

By Jackie Mundt, Pratt County farmer and rancher This past year has been a hard one. Though we are close to the renewed hopes of a new year, we still face what could be the hardest days of 2020 for some. No matter what you are celebrating this season Christmas, Hanukah, Kwanza, Festivus – most plans have likely been altered, with some facing a total breakdown of holiday celebrations and family traditions. My heart goes out to people who are struggling with this change. I was once just like you. When I was 12 years old, my oldest brother enlisted in the Navy and left for basic training near Chicago just before Thanksgiving. Since the base was only a five-hour drive from home, our family was able to participate in a Christmas Adopt-a-Sailor program to spend the day with him.
