Agri-Pulse founder and president named one of Folio's Top Women in Media for entrepreneurs

Sara Wyant

Sara Wyant, founder and president of Agri-Pulse, was named to the annual Folio: "Top Women in Media" recognition in the Entrepreneurs category. Wyant was the only agricultural media professional included in this year's awards. Winners will be honored at a ceremony on June 8 in New York City.

"As a veteran farm policy editor, Wyant founded Agri-Pulse Communications, Inc. in 2004, based on her instincts that agriculture and rural leaders were not getting consistent, high-quality reporting out of Washington, D.C.," reports Agri-Pulse. "She launched a weekly paid circulation e-newsletter the following year, covering a wide range of farm, food and rural legislative and regulatory issues."

Agri-Pulse has continued to expand and "now reaches over 5,000 of the industry's most influential 'movers and shakers,' including Congressman and Senators and their staffs, top government officials, C-suite agribusiness executives and most of the key farm and commodity leaders across the country. Wyant is one of the most sought after speakers on Ag and rural policy in the country," Agri-Pulse writes.
