What Is The Agri-Media Network?

Agri-media.ca

Looking for a place to find agricultural news and market information that’s relevant to Ontario?

Would you like to get a heads-up on Twitter on provincial and local agricultural news?

Looking for somewhere to find out what agricultural events are coming up in your area – or a place to post your events for others to find?

What about today’s farm newscast? Or a newscast from a few days ago you may have missed?

And that ag story you heard third- or fourth-hand – looking for a place to search for it?

All of those things and more can be found at agri-media.ca.

Agri-media.ca is the online home for Blackburn Radio’s agricultural news and information material.

Blackburn Radio’s main agricultural broadcast entities are CKNX AM 920 in Wingham and CFCO Radio in Chatham – both with long histories of covering agriculture for their listeners.

The Agri-media network currently includes those two stations as well as Blackburn outlets in Sarnia and Leamington.

What you find at Agri-media.ca is the agri-business product of the combined resources of all of those operations.
