The UFU launched the new membership category for businesses who rely on farming families for product production or provide a service to the agriculture industry.
David Armstrong, sales and marketing director at Fibrus, commented, “We are really excited about our corporate partnership with the Ulster Farmers’ Union and look forward to developing our relationship further. Over the next few years’ farmers will need to embrace and utilise a range of digital technologies in their businesses to help them farm more efficiently and productively. Fibrus is committed to working with the UFU and its members to address the lack of digital coverage in rural parts of Northern Ireland which is creating a huge barrier for farm businesses, putting them at a severe disadvantage.”
Mr Ferguson added, “Rural businesses and farm families require access to a fibre broadband service that will enhance all parts of their lives. Fibrus will provide this service for our members at a reasonable cost. The broadband network provider is seeking to transform rural and regional areas of Northern Ireland by investing in excess of £100m in full fibre broadband, something which will greatly be received by the farming community. We look forward to working with Fibrus.”
