AgNet Media, Inc., a leading agriculture media company with roots in Florida traceable to the mid-1980s, was founded by farmer investors who collectively provided seed capital for what would become the state's first independent, commercial farm broadcast effort. Spearheaded by its principal founder, Gary Cooper, who grew up on a family-owned winter vegetable farm in southeast Florida, AgNet Media is dedicated to serving the unique agricultural needs of the 'deep Southeast.' Having graduated from the University of Florida with a degree in broadcasting in 1978, Mr. Cooper later became the company's president and continues to lead as young agriculture communicators join and propel the organization forward.
AgNet Media operates extensive farms radio networks including outlets across Florida, Georgia, Alabama, and California where AgNet West began broadcasting in 2012. The network covers significant agricultural hotspots responsible for over 70% of the nation's high-value fresh vegetables and specialty crops. A recent addition to their offerings, VSCNews.com (Vegetable and Specialty Crop News), furthers their commitment to providing targeted news for diversified agriculture regions.
In 2005, AgNet Media acquired Citrus Industry magazine, a publication with over 97 years of history, further broadening its media outreach. The company's annual event, the Citrus Expo, will celebrate its 26th anniversary in August 2017. The organization remains under the leadership and ownership influence of key individuals including Robin E Loftin, who serves as Chairman, President, and Vice Chairman of the Board.
AgNet Media is officially registered under Florida jurisdiction with a filing number P05000023497 and is recognized as a domestic profit corporation (DOMP). Founded on February 14, 2005, the company has maintained its incorporation in Newberry, Alachua County, Florida at its mailing address of 27206 SW 22nd PL.
