Farmers embrace new technology to boost production, on Real Virginia

Featured this month on Real Virginia, Virginia Farm Bureau’s weekly television program:

  • Virginia farmers are utilizing drones and robotic equipment to increase productivity.

  • The natural beauty on display at the State Arboretum of Virginia is a tribute to decades of scientific research.

  • Virginia-grown wheat is in high demand, and local producers are proficient in producing quality crops.

  • Situated in the suburban sprawl of Northern Virginia, Fairfax County’s farming past, present and future are the focus of this month’s County Agriculture Close-up.
Real Virginia airs nationwide at 3:30 p.m. on the first Saturday of each month on RFD-TV on Dish Network and DirecTV, and on selected cable outlets around the state. It airs weekly on WBRA digital channel 15.2, WHRO Norfolk, WVVA Bluefield and WTKR Norfolk, and on the first and third weekends of each month on WVIR Charlottesville and WRLH Richmond.
