The Arkansas Farm Bureau Federation extends its deepest condolences to the family, friends and co-workers of KARN radio news reporter Gary DiGiuseppe, who died Wednesday morning in an automobile accident in Little Rock.

The former farm director of the Arkansas Agriculture Radio Network, DiGiuseppe spent the majority of his career as a farm broadcaster, much of it in Arkansas reporting on issues affecting the state’s largest industry. Gary attended many Farm Bureau conventions and events and worked closely with the organization. In this role, he helped tell the farming story fairly and provided an outlet for the farmers and ranchers of Arkansas to share their stories with the public.

Gary was respected by those within Farm Bureau and throughout the agricultural industry and he will be missed.
