One of the oldest agricultural news radio networks in the country is celebrating half a century in the business of broadcasting. Cyndi Young, director of Brownfield and Learfield Ag, said it all started with an idea from a master’s thesis.

Bob Meyer started his career in farm broadcasting in the mid-1970s; and now, 50 years later, he is being inducted into the Wisconsin Broadcaster Hall of Fame.

Sabrina Halvorson, national correspondent for AgNet Media, recently started contributing agricultural media to Hoosier Ag Today (HAT) and Michigan Ag Today (MAT). Halvorson will continue in her current position at AgNet Media while contributing to HAT and MAT, and says she is excited about the new collaboration.
