FarmCloud is a social network for agribusiness. Borrowing from the
wikipedia definition for "social network", we mean a social
structure comprised of individuals or organizations that are
connected by one or more specific types of interdependency, such as
values, visions, ideas, financial exchange, friends, kinship,
dislike, trade, web links, disease transmission (epidemiology), or
airline routes.
Given the fact that our social network is primarily focused on the
business, economy, ecology, education, science, products, services,
practice, and general public interest in agriculture, we're not
likely to see a significant number of connections defined between
our members based on airline routes. Then again, maybe we will—and
that's the beauty in this structure. It evolves according to the
best interests of the community.
We've initiated this network with a collection of newsfeeds,
forums, and discussion topics, but these are only intended as the
starting point for a much larger vision that will be informed and
defined by the emerging activities and feedback that we receive
from our members. We appreciate your interest. Welcome to
FarmCloud. Grow with us.
