The U.S. Farm Report (USFR) is a weekly syndicated United States television news program focused on agriculture, presented in magazine format, which has a focus on agriculture and agribusiness.
USFR is currently hosted by Tyne Morgan and is based in South Bend, Indiana, along with its daily companion series, AgDay . The program is owned by Farm Journal Media, a Philadelphia-based company that owns a number of agricultural media properties including Farm Journal magazine.
Streaming full USFR episodes are available on the station's web site.
Each week, two separate half-hour versions of USFR are produced, each with a different focus. Television stations can air either one of the half-hour shows as a stand-alone program or air both shows back-to-back as a single one-hour program. Most stations air the full-hour show. [1]
In 2009, RFD-TV picked up the show, and airs the program twice weekly, on Saturday mornings and Sunday afternoons. Orion Samuelson, the original host of USFR, [2] had a longtime working relationship with RFD-TV even before the move of USFR. He later moved to a competing program with a similar format, This Week in Agribusiness, which airs on many of the same stations as USFR but is produced by competing farm newspaper Farm Progress ; he eventually retired from that position in 2020.
