Let’s learn more about this new thing called AgHaven in this week’s program. In the photo below you can see AgHaven President, Srik Soogoor, discussing the agricultural search engine and social networking community that’s a whole lot more, during Commodity Classic.

One of the board members of AgHaven is Tom Taylor, High Plains Journal. I sat down with Tom during the show to learn how he got involved with AgHaven. He says he got a call from Srik about getting ag input into what they were doing with an online search engine. At first he wasn’t really sure what Srik was talking about but after listening they put together a meeting and then they were off to the races.

One of the first aspects of AgHaven we talked about was the intent to partner with media companies like High Plains Journal to distribute news and information. HPJ is a media partner and Tom says the agricultural search engine is what really drew them to the project. I asked him what he suggests for agrimarketers when it comes to looking at this unique online destination. He says to first go visit AgHaven.com and that he thinks that as it grows it will offer opportunities to those in agricultural marketing.
