Innovation in agriculture is taking a significant leap forward with Veea's recent collaboration with Mainstream Fiber Networks, Microclimates Inc., and AmeriCrew LLC. The partnership aims to bring climate-smart farming connectivity solutions to Cyr Farm in Fowler, Indiana. This initiative, powered by Veea's Edge Platform, seeks to enhance resource management, sustainability, and productivity in farming operations across Indiana and beyond.

Veea's high-speed Wi-Fi connectivity and long-range LoRaWAN capabilities enable real-time monitoring and control of farm management systems. This includes hyperlocal weather information, soil composition, grain elevator humidity, and storage levels. By leveraging precision agriculture practices, farmers can optimize resources, reduce energy and water consumption, and mitigate flooding risks. The deployment of Veea's Edge Platform is expected to result in substantial benefits, such as a 20%-plus improvement in crop yields, up to 30% reduction in energy consumption, up to 40% reduction in water usage, and 20-40% cost savings in labor-related expenses.



Mainstream Fiber Networks' high-speed, reliable fiber broadband infrastructure plays a pivotal role in supporting Veea's Edge Platform. This connectivity solution ensures that Cyr Farm can run real-time monitoring and control systems, regardless of weather conditions or other external factors. By pairing other technology companies with Mainstream Fiber's best-in-class broadband infrastructure, agricultural businesses in Indiana can promote the state's rural economic growth and connect a vast array of products and services.

Microclimates' dashboard solution seamlessly integrates with Veea's Edge Platform, providing a universal control system for automating climate control, lighting, and irrigation systems. This integration reduces costs, maximizes efficiency, and increases crop value. Leveraging VeeaHubs' enterprise-level computing and connectivity capabilities, this combination offers a comprehensive and reliable solution for indoor farming automation.



The project at Cyr Farm demonstrates the potential of smart agriculture technologies in transforming traditional farming practices. By embracing these innovative solutions, farmers can enhance sustainability, improve productivity, and drive economic growth in Indiana's rural communities. As more farmers adopt these technologies, the positive impacts on the wider community, including job creation and infrastructure development, are likely to grow.

In conclusion, Veea's climate-smart farming connectivity solution, in partnership with Mainstream Fiber Networks, Microclimates, and AmeriCrew, is poised to revolutionize agriculture in Indiana and beyond. By leveraging advanced technologies, farmers can optimize resources, reduce environmental impact, and boost profitability. The future of farming is here, and it's smarter, greener, and more connected than ever before.
