A YouTube video titled "Mais de 60% das áreas rurais no Brasil não têm acesso à internet" discusses a study revealing that over 60% of rural areas in Brazil lack internet access. The importance of internet connectivity for agriculture in Brazil is emphasized, as it leads to increased productivity, cost reduction, and time optimization through data collection. However, expanding 4G coverage is a challenge in rural areas. An association is working to bring 4G internet to rural areas in partnership with the University of Viçosa. The study shows that regions with the most internet access are in the South and Southeast of Brazil. The video highlights the struggles of a farmer in a municipality where only 37% of rural properties have 4G coverage, and only 19% of the national territory has significant coverage. The government is investing R$7.5 billion to expand 4G signal in over 7,000 districts, villages, and rural areas, and plans to implement 5G in over 5,000 cities.
