Hefty Competition at Ag PhD

AgMinuteI don’t know how familiar you are with Brian and Darren Hefty of Ag PhD but they’ve just started making their television show available on their website. They also produce a regular radio feature called “The Ag Minute.”

“As farmers ourselves we understand that it might not always be possible to watch Ag PhD as often as farmers would like,” said Brian Hefty, co-host of Ag PhD with his brother, Darren Hefty. “This gives the farmer an opportunity to download that latest information to their computer or other portable media player. We really appreciate the feedback that viewers continue to give us on how the show helps them in their operation, and it’s viewer feedback that has led us to develop an online product.”

Entering it’s tenth year of production, Ag PhD is a weekly half-hour television program that currently airs on 13 affiliates in the upper Midwest and Pacific Northwest, as well as nationwide on the RFD-TV Network (DirecTV channel 379 and Dish Network channel 231).

The brothers sound pretty competitive since they’re currently running a poll to see which one won the weekly “sibling showdown debate.”
