Farm Journal Electronic Media (FJEM) announces an agreement with
DIRECTV to add satellite carriage of its AgDay and U,S. Farm Report TV
programs.
AgDay is on DIRECTV Channel 225 weekdays from 8:00-8:30 a.m. EST,
and U.S. Farm Report on Saturdays from 8:00-9:00 a.m. EST.
AgDay and U.S. Farm Report are both targeted to commercial farmers,
rural landowners, and consumers interested in the country way of life.
As two of America's longest-running syndicated shows, the programs
are viewed weekly by more than 1.5 million households (Nielsen).
"This new platform also gives us a place where we can easily
and quickly launch new programming," says Jeff Pence, President of
Farm Journal Digital Media.
"Along with adding yet another convenient time and place for
viewers, our advertising clients will have new and unique opportunities
to reach this targeted audience with expanded messages--or even their
own programs adjacent to ours. Farm Journal Media will leverage all of
its multi-media channels and touch points across agriculture to let
everyone know they can now find AgDay and U.S. Farm Report on DIRECTV
Channel 225."
