凱爾·艾倫（Kyle Allen）和謝恩·邁爾斯（Shane Myers）都在農場長大，並在農業行業工作，然後合作創辦了Gateway Precision Ag。他們的業務幫助新一代農民引入現代技術管理作物生產。

這種高科技方法包括將實時數據發送到拖拉機中的計算機顯示屏，使用軟件幫助農民了解何時、何地以及如何種植作物。這種精準農業使農民能夠使用升級的技術和設備以提高速度、準確性和產量，從而幫助最大化利潤。
Gateway Precision Ag became a Spectrum small business customer in October 2023 in Hawk Point, Missouri, population 700, as part of Spectrum's approximately $9 billion multi-year subsidized Rural Construction Initiative.
作爲Spectrum約90億美元的多年資助的農村建設計劃的一部分，Gateway Precision Ag於2023年10月成爲位於密蘇里州Hawk Point（人口700）的一家小型Spectrum商業客戶。
Shane Myers, Co-Owner of Gateway Precision Ag"Not only is the Spectrum Internet product amazingly fast, it's also reliable, and that makes a huge difference in how we serve our customers. I can't imagine doing what we do today without high-speed internet."
Gateway Precision Ag的共同所有者謝恩·邁爾斯（Shane Myers）「Spectrum互聯網產品不僅速度驚人，而且可靠，這極大地影響了我們服務客戶的方式。沒有高速互聯網，我無法想象我們今天所做的事情。」——Gateway Precision Ag的合夥人之一謝恩·邁爾斯（Shane Myers）
Before having Spectrum Internet, Kyle and Shane said the geese were faster than their previous setup. When their internet went down, the operation was paralyzed. Kyle pointed out their business wouldn't be the same without reliable, high-speed internet. And now with Spectrum Internet – and its 100% US-based customer service team – Kyle and Shane say they are ready for the future with whatever changes technology brings to their industry.
在擁有Spectrum互聯網之前，凱爾和謝恩說雁比他們以前的設備更快。當他們的互聯網崩潰時，業務陷入癱瘓。凱爾指出，如果沒有可靠的高速互聯網，他們的業務將無法再繼續。現在，擁有Spectrum互聯網和百分之百美國客戶服務團隊的支持，凱爾和謝恩說，他們將準備好應對未來科技對他們所處行業帶來的任何變化。
Rural Expansion Benefits Residents and Small Businesses
農村擴張使居民和小企業受益。
Gateway Precision Ag is just one small business to benefit from the company's rural expansion in the coming years.
Gateway Precision Ag只是該公司未來幾年農村擴張的一個受益小企業。
Charter's multi-year subsidized Rural Construction Initiative is an investment of approximately $9 billion – a portion of which is offset by more than $2 billion in government support funding – that will ultimately connect approximately 1.75 million new homes and small businesses across the country. With 295,000 new locations activated in 2023 and an additional approximately 450,000 new locations expected to be activated in 2024, Charter is already making great progress on this rural initiative.
Charter的多年資助的農村建設計劃是一項大約90億美元的投資——其中一部分被超過20億美元的政府支持資金抵消——最終將連接全美約175萬新家庭和小企業。在2023年激活了295000個新位置，並將在2024年激活約450000個新位置，Charter已經在這個農村計劃上取得了巨大的進展。
