Farm Journal Media reports staffing for "U.S. Farm Report," weekly television program. Also, "a full-scale introduction of the Top Producer digital edition is planned in September."
Describes how Cyrus Curtis bought Country Gentleman magazine in 1911 and it became "the dominant farm publication of the 1920s." The magazine "took the nineteenth-century symbol of the yeoman farmer and recast it in terms of consumption. In doing so, it created an idealistic image of a new class of consumers, an image that urban advertisers easily understood and willingly bought." CG had 2.4 million subscribers when it was sold to Farm Journal and Town Journal in 1955.

AgREN Network Paper No. 128. 10 pages, Adike Pathrike is a monthly farm magazine catering to cash-crop growers in parts of Karnataka and Kerala. The magazine covers a wide range of crops (commercial and subsistence) and farm and houshold management themes. It is 15 years old, is self-supporting, and has established a unique niche for itself, based on a philosophy of farmer participation in the generation of information. This approach is expressed through an insistence on farmer verification of technologies described in the magazine, an adaptive and interative approach to technology, and encouragement of farmer-to-farmer communication, and a counterbalance to government and industry promotional campaigns.
