About this listen
In this episode of Broadband Action, host Curtis Dean explores Yuma County, Arizona's innovative approach to digital infrastructure with PJ Way, Broadband Program Manager. Way details how the county has strategically combined ARPA and local funding to construct an extensive middle mile fiber network spanning the region. The conversation highlights how this connectivity initiative particularly benefits Yuma's agricultural sector, enabling farmers to implement precision agriculture technologies that optimize crop production while significantly reducing resource consumption—especially critical water usage in this arid region. Dean and Way discuss how this digital transformation represents not just technological progress but a sustainable path forward for rural agricultural communities facing resource challenges.https://www.yumacountyaz.gov
