Yuma agriculture uses 10,000 acres of irrigated farmland, water diverted from the Colorado River, and a year-round growing season to produce over 90% of North America’s winter vegetables. The use of information technologies in farming and agribusiness is growing and expanding the necessary discovery to improve yields and align production with changing environmental conditions. The use of field data collected, monitored, and analyzed allows producers to plan and assess crop stability and growth. The expansion of cyberinfrastructure (CI) systems and resources enables modern farming to collect, analyze, and share soil, crop, and environmental data. The CC* Regional Network project delivers high speed external connectivity, expands wireless networks and internet of things (IOT) systems to research farms in one of the most important agricultural communities in the country.The introduction of specialized and novel networking in new collaborations with higher education research in the region improves the opportunity to plan and implement broadband and networking aligned with the science of agriculture. The use of technology to improve crop yields and minimize natural resource impacts, or precision agriculture, is a necessary step forward that requires the deployment of cyberinfrastructure on research farms, in rural communities, and in an extended collaboration between higher education, the Yuma agricultural research community with Yuma broadband providers and farmers.The project enables participation and informs regional cyberinfrastructure capacity building by Arizona’s research and education network, the Sun Corridor Network (SCN), Arizona State University, Tempe, Arizona as a research service facilitator in this community.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

尤马农业利用10，000英亩的灌溉农田，从科罗拉多河引水，全年生长季节生产北美90%以上的冬季蔬菜。信息技术在农业和农业综合企业中的使用正在增长和扩大必要的发现，以提高产量并使生产与不断变化的环境条件保持一致。 利用收集、监测和分析的田间数据，生产者可以规划和评估作物的稳定性和生长。 网络基础设施（CI）系统和资源的扩展使现代农业能够收集、分析和共享土壤、作物和环境数据。 CC* 区域网络项目提供高速外部连接，将无线网络和物联网（IOT）系统扩展到该国最重要的农业社区之一的研究农场。在与该地区高等教育研究的新合作中引入专业和新颖的网络，提高了规划和实施与农业科学一致的宽带和网络的机会。利用技术来提高作物产量和最大限度地减少自然资源的影响，或精确农业，是向前迈出的必要一步，需要在研究农场，农村社区以及高等教育，尤马农业研究社区与尤马宽带提供商和农民。该项目通过以下方式促进参与并为区域网络基础设施能力建设提供信息亚利桑那州的研究和教育网络，太阳走廊网络（SCN），亚利桑那州州立大学，滕佩，亚利桑那州作为一个研究服务的促进者在这个社区。这个奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得的支持，通过评估使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准。
