About two years ago, Todd Whelan (left, shown with wife, Nancy) bought KDHN Radio Station in Dimmitt, TX. Todd is proud to report that his station is now an NAFB member station. Todd is a veteran farm broadcaster with 34 years’ experience in Texas, Oklahoma, Colorado, Michigan, and Iowa. Their local live ag show has daily interviews with ag leaders who have knowledge and experience in the Texas Panhandle and South Plains ag industry. Their local agricultural show airs from 6:30 to 8:00 a.m. Monday through Friday. The station will begin airing Texas Rangers baseball games in April and will continue coverage for the entire season. Todd reports that conditions are very dry in his area with lots of wildfires in the Texas Panhandle. He encourages colleagues to check out their new radio website, www.kdhnradio.com. Todd attended the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association meeting in Nashville in February and Commodity Classic in San Antonio in March.
At Commodity Classic, Todd is shown interviewing Wesley Spurlock, a Stratford, TX, farmer who serves as president of the Corn Board of the National Corn Growers Association. Spurlock farms 9,600 acres of irrigated corn, cotton, wheat and grain sorghum in the upper Texas Panhandle, where he also runs a harvesting and spray company.
