I would be interested in seeing what specific conditions have to be in place for transient aura to have any impact on which way a farm lot grows. Because it would be great to have the ability to control that. 

@CorinaMarie taught me that the farm buildings grow only where road networks touch the farm.  Using 1x1 street plops, I arranged for the farm buildings to grow alongside the rail line in this screenshot, with the advantage that farm buildings that touch a rail line can export using that rail line.

After the farms grew, I then went back and rebuilt the rest of the street, to link the farms to the highway.

All growable buildings require road network access to grow, that's pretty standard. But that doesn't have anything to do with what you quoted, since those networks don't provide any transient aura in the unmodded game. Granted, the aura simulator does have a property to allow for that, but it is set at a default of 0,0.

@Naomi57 is adding additional, useful information. She is also likely referring to my mini tutorial which shows a method to get the farm building itself to grow exactly where one wants it to be.

There really is no need to nitpick a tiny little detail of someone's post.

As @Naomi57 hasn't said anything untrue or that I don't agree with, I have no reason to nitpick. Her pic is pretty neat. 

But since I was quoted, I also added relevant and true information to the conversation. You're more than welcome to verify in Reader.
