CNH and Intelsat, operator of one of the world’s largest integrated satellite and terrestrial communication networks, today announced a collaboration that will be the first to provide farmers ubiquitous access to the internet via a ruggedized satellite communications (SATCOM) service.

CNH says the acquisition solidifies its in-house precision, automation and autonomy technology.

Trimble will build out these independent dealer relationships "to ensure better access, service and support for its customers."
