Kansas City, MO -
Farm Journal has expanded its reach to serve audiences with the launch of
Farm Journal TV, a video streaming service dedicated to agriculture. Farm Journal TV debuted today at Commodity Classic in Denver, giving attendees a firsthand look at what the service offers.
Farm Journal TV is a subscription video service that lets farmers, ranchers and growers access Farm Journal news on their terms. It will be the only place to watch Farm Journal programming, such as "Machinery Pete" TV, on-demand. Subscribers will be the first to see "AgDay," "U.S. Farm Report" and other shows. In addition, Farm Journal TV will carry live broadcasts and programming that won't be available anywhere else.
Subscribers can find hundreds of hours of content including Farm Journal's podcast network, event footage and educational programming. The app is organized by show and subject and can be personalized to direct users to the content of most interest to them.
"Like many Americans, more and more ag producers are moving from traditional cable TV to video streaming services," said Prescott Shibles, CEO of Farm Journal. "Studies show more than 60% of producers now subscribe to these services, and that number is quickly growing. Younger operators are even more likely to have streaming subscriptions. Expanding our reach through 'Farm Journal' TV enables us to be where producers are today."
Subscribers can access the service on smart TV, iPhone or Android mobile devices and via the web at
FarmJournalTV.com. The service is available on Roku, Apple TV, Samsung TV Plus, Amazon Fire TV and Android TV and will continue to expand to other platforms in the future.
A Farm Journal TV subscription costs $9.99 per month or $99.99 per year. To celebrate the launch of the service, Farm Journal is offering a free 14-day trial and a special discount for early subscribers of up to 50% off the annual rate, which is available by using the discount code BIGDEAL at
FarmJournalTV.com/join.
"Farm Journal TV offers the convenience of on-demand access to ag-related content producers need to run their operations," Shibles said. "They can now watch their favorite shows and podcasts anywhere at any time. Rather than taking time to search online for the ag-related news and information they want, they can find it quickly on the app, organized in one easy-to-access place."
Farm Journal TV is presented by John Deere. To learn more or subscribe, go to
