By partnering with the Kansas Department of Transportation and a couple of soil health organizations, the Kansas Department of Agriculture can help farmers succeed. Many locations throughout the state are broadband dead zones. For farmers and truckers to utilize new technology, they need internet connectivity, but bringing that technology to rural areas with low population centers is not economically feasible for many companies. That is where KDA and KDOT come in. The two organizations got together with two soil health organizations to make an incentive plan to bring broadband to central Kansas.
