RICHMOND—Wythe County is highlighted in May’s Real Virginia weekly television program, produced by Virginia Farm Bureau.

Farm Bureau’s video crew travels to Wythe in May’s County Agriculture Close-up. Burke Moeller, video producer for Farm Bureau, interviews local farmers and others to explore the role agriculture plays in this county with 819 farms on 151,563 acres. Farmers there primarily raise livestock, poultry and other animal products, but a small percentage grow corn and hay.

For those wondering how many of Virginia’s agricultural products are exported, the show delivers an answer. It also covers how Gov. Ralph Northam aims to double the state’s agricultural exports in the next 15 years.

Real Virginia also interviews some antique enthusiasts who have amassed extensive collections of agricultural artifacts, including tractors and other equipment, and signs.

Real Virginia focuses on Virginia agriculture with a consumer audience in mind. The program 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 Roanoke, WHRO Norfolk, WVVA Bluefield, and WTKR Norfolk, and on the first and third weekends of each month on WVIR Charlottesville and WRLH Richmond.
