What Farmher does
FarmHER + RanchHER (legal entity FarmHer Inc.) is a privately held media company that produces, distributes, and monetizes content celebrating women in agriculture across the United States. Its core output is the FarmHER + RanchHER television series, now in its seventh and second seasons respectively, broadcast nationally on RFD-TV and streamed on RFD+. The company serves a primary audience of female farmers, ranchers, and agricultural operators — a demographic described in source data as the fastest-growing segment of U.S. farmers — and a secondary audience of rural American consumers, agribusiness professionals, and agricultural brands. Supporting content products include the Dirt Diaries podcast (distributed via Apple Podcasts and Spotify), the FarmHER Kitchen recipe hub, and branded safety and food-systems content series (ProtectHER and Everybody Eats) developed with anchor sponsor Nationwide Agribusiness.
The underlying technology is a conventional media stack: a WordPress-class website (farmher.com) hosting blog content; a Captivate-hosted podcast feed; video content produced for RFD-TV linear and RFD+ streaming, with additional reach on YouTube and Sirius XM Rural Radio Channel 147; and a Shopify-style e-commerce storefront (shop.farmher.com) for branded apparel. The company is registered as a U.S. corporation, lists a general office in Nashville, Tennessee, and uses Des Moines, Iowa as a returns/fulfillment partner. There are no proprietary AI/ML, software, or data products disclosed.
FarmHER's business model is a mix of (1) television content production and distribution via the RFD-TV network and RFD+ streaming (licensing/royalty economics), (2) branded-content sponsorships led by Nationwide Agribusiness across the ProtectHER and Everybody Eats programs (event/sponsorship revenue), and (3) direct-to-consumer merchandise sales through HER Farm + Ranch Supply (sweatshirts, shirts, hats). The company is founder-led and self-sustaining, with no disclosed institutional funding, no parent company, and no subsidiaries. It maintains strategic alliances with RFD-TV (distribution), NCBA and the Women in Agribusiness Summit (events), and a roster of commodity-board and lifestyle partners (Beef. It's What's for Dinner, Hope Family Wines, American Farms). Headcount is reported at 1-10 employees, consistent with a small, content-led operation.

Farmher competitors and assessment
Company assessmentDirect peers
- The Female Farmer Project: A documentary-style storytelling project that chronicles women in agriculture through photo, film, and written stories. Closest direct peer to FarmHER: it occupies the same niche of women-in-ag narrative content and shares the community/target-persona overlap, though its distribution is digital-first rather than broadcast-led.
- AgDaily: An agricultural news and lifestyle media brand covering farming, ranching, and rural life across digital and social channels. Comparable to FarmHER in content-led ag storytelling, though it is broader in scope and not women-specific, making it adjacent competition for women-in-ag audience attention and sponsorships.
- Cowgirl Magazine: A print and digital lifestyle publication focused on women in the western and ranching lifestyle, including ranching, rodeo, and rural entrepreneurship. Comparable to FarmHER's RanchHER positioning and shares the same women-in-ag/ranching target persona and content-plus-merch business model.
- Modern Farmer: An independent media brand covering food, farming, and rural living with a strong storytelling and lifestyle angle. Closely comparable to FarmHER in tone and target overlap (farmers, food-system-curious consumers), though it is broader than the women-in-ag niche.
Broad incumbents
- Progressive Farmer (DTN): A long-established ag media brand covering production agriculture, policy, and markets. Broad incumbent with multi-platform reach that competes for ag sponsorships and the same reader/viewer pool; a likely mover if women-in-ag inventory becomes a larger spend category.
- RFD-TV: The national rural-lifestyle television network and FarmHER's primary distribution partner. Comparable as the broader incumbent in the rural/ag media space; it carries FarmHER programming and competes for the same audience attention and ag-advertiser dollars across its full schedule.
- Successful Farming (Dotdash Meredith): One of the largest mainstream agricultural media brands, spanning print, digital, video, and events through agriculture.com. Broad incumbent competing for the same advertiser budgets and audience; has the scale to launch a dedicated women-in-ag vertical and partially substitute FarmHER's offering.
Regional players
- High Plains Journal: A regional agricultural publication covering the High Plains/Midwest U.S. with print, digital, and event products. Regionally focused ag-media peer that competes for agricultural sponsor attention and rural audience engagement in overlapping geographies.
- Cattle Business Weekly: A regional trade publication covering the beef cattle industry across the Western U.S. Closely comparable to FarmHER's RanchHER component in audience (cattle producers and ranchers) and advertiser base, though it targets the operation rather than the female operator specifically.
- Brownfield Ag News: A farm radio and digital news network with strong coverage of U.S. crop and livestock agriculture. Comparable as an ag-media brand that bundles broadcast/radio with digital content for farmer audiences; competes for the same audience time and ag-ad budgets as FarmHER's podcast/SiriusXM presence.
