SmartRural is a nationwide project that, using relatively simple technology, will help farmers capture and access data to help make better decisions and improve business returns. 

SmartRural is a user-owned co-op, whose objective is to deliver connectivity across the entirety of rural Scotland, gathering data through a new telecoms infrastructure. As a co-op, the ownership, control and value of the data gathered are all retained by the farmer members who generate it.
