Good morning AgWired fans. We’ve got a beautiful morning for the start of the 2012 Farm Progress Show. Cindy is attending a Koch Agronomic Services breakfast while I’m uploading my first batch of photos from here at the show, including from last night’s Monsanto media dinner. Things will warm up today but that’s expected and we’ll be working out of the New Holland sponsored media tent.

Speaking of Farm Progress, the company just announced the launch of its new website.

Farm Progress has retooled and launched its state and regional magazines’ websites to provide users with a more feature-packed and flexible Internet portal. The producer-centered website will be presented to readers and show visitors at the 2012 Farm Progress Show Hospitality Tent, hosted by Wallaces Farmer, Aug. 28, 29 and 30 near Boone, Iowa.

The introduction brings more than a new look to its Internet environment; it gives users more graphics, an enhanced “markets” window that includes the key business markets, commodity reporting with handy charts from the homepage, and an upgraded weather display.
