Rocking M Radio, Inc.According to a release sent to me today there’s going to be a new farm radio network on the plains.

Golden Plains Ag Network a division of Rocking M Radio, owner and operator of the largest number of Kansas radio stations, will officially launch Wednesday, Aug. 1. The network will begin operations with 19 affiliated radio stations that are strategically located in the heart of major agriculture producing states Kansas, Texas/Oklahoma Panhandle, Colorado, and Nebraska.

Golden Plains Ag Network will originate from RMR’s flagship station KXXX AM, in Colby, KS. By being in the very center of some of this nation’s largest farms, feed yards, and ranches, the Golden Plains Ag Network will be a more “hands on” and “reality based” voice for agribusiness. Chad Wolf and John Jenkinson are the primary on air personalities for the network. Wolf and Jenkinson bring to GPAN a vast background and experience not only in production agribusiness, but as members of the National Association of Farm Broadcasting, and will provide unbiased and professional reporting of markets and news from the very core of this major agribusiness region.

Kay Leiker, Scott City, KS is directory of marketing for the new network. Leiker brings her knowledge and experience as a top marketing expert to provide clientele of the network, optimum customer service that exceeds their expectations in effective “hands on” advertising.
