Agri-Pulse to launch ‘Newsmakers’ video and podcast

WASHINGTON, Feb. 7, 2022 - Agri-Pulse Communications, Inc. is launching a national news show created to reach a broader audience-base and engage lawmakers and key influencers on the hottest political topics each week. Agri-Pulse Newsmakers will feature members of Congress, federal and state officials, farmers, ag and food commodity groups and roundtable panelists for debates and discussions.

Our editorial team has demonstrated a strong ability to bring people together for high-level discussions that can both inform and engage,” said Agri-Pulse Founder and Editor Sara Wyant. “I’ve long thought that we could harness these strengths and produce a high-quality political show for the agricultural community. With the 2022 midterm elections right around the corner and discussions on the 2023 farm bill underway, our timing could not be better.”

The 30-minute program will be broadcast on www.Agri-Pulse.com and distributed every Friday via Agri-Pulse.com and other partner channels. If you are not already part of the Agri-Pulse viewer community, you can opt into this free show by clicking here. Newsmakers will be available in both video and podcast formats, and available on iTunes, Google Play and Spotify.

Founding sponsors of Newsmakers include Farm Credit, American Farm Bureau Federation and Curious Plot. 

Newsmakers will be produced in the recently renovated American Farm Bureau Federation studio in Washington, D.C.
