What is FWi?

   It's Farmers Weekly Interactive. It's
   instant agricultural information, tailored
   to your needs, delivered to your
   computer via the Internet. FWi is far
   more than just an electronic version of
   what you read in Farmers Weekly
   each week. It's an added value service
   with its own news gathering operation,
   data collection and editorial staff. FWi
   will provide independent, topical
   information updated daily to help you
   run your business more effectively.
   FWi brings you immediate news,
   prices and opinions. It also provides a
   link to what's happening in agriculture
   in the EU and around the world. 

   FWi will also allow users to search for
   specific information, whether published
   in FWi, Farmers Weekly, Crops or a
   full range of world-wide publications.
   

   And because you go to markets to
   talk as well as to listen, there'll also
   be an opportunity for you to register
   your views with other users, using our
   discussion forum, not just in the UK or
   Europe, but around the world.

   FWi is inexpensive to operate and has
   been designed to be simple to use,
   even by those new to computers.

   Not just for farmers....
   FWi is aimed at the whole agricultural
   industry. It's not just for farmers but for
   all those who supply and advise them.
   That includes consultants, dealers,
   manufacturers, suppliers and land
   agents. FWi will also be essential for
   students and academics.

   There are two levels of service within
   FWi. Free access information and
   optional premium services. Plus extra
   subscription services from just £8 a
   month
