Darren and I would love to personally answer any agronomy questions you have. Just call us at 844-44-AgPhD (844-442-4743) any weekday afternoon at 2 p.m. Central. For the last two years we have hosted a live, 1-hour radio show on SiriusXM channel 80 at 2 p.m. Central Time. The show re-runs every day at 11 p.m. Central, too. The theme of our show is helping you raise higher-yielding, more profitable crops, and improving the environment. Yes, all three of those can be accomplished at the same time.
Our favorite part of every show, and what our listeners have also told us is their favorite part, is when we take phone calls from farmers. We want to hear what your challenges are because we want to help you. If you’d rather not talk on the radio, but you still want to get your questions in, you can either tell our call screeners your questions so they can relay them to us, or you can e-mail your questions to us – radio@agphd.com. You can also send a question in on Twitter @brianhefty, @darrenhefty, or @agphdmedia.
If you don’t have SiriusXM in your tractor, sprayer, or combine yet, we encourage you to either use your smartphone to listen to the show or get a portable SiriusXM radio. SiriusXM has deals on radios and subscription packages, and now that they have channel 80, Rural Radio, there is ag programming all day long.
In addition to the live, daily radio show, we continue to have short radio updates each day on dozens of other stations. All of these updates are also available on our website, agphd.com.
Thank you for listening to our radio show, and thank you for your continued support of Ag PhD TV, which on April 1st will have aired a new show every week for 17 consecutive years. I also want to thank you if you attended one of our free Ag PhD Winter Workshops. We had by far our best attendance ever, with several workshops between 800 and 1200 people. Thank you!
