The series is available in 20 of the top 25 television markets on more than 240 PBS stations covering 60 percent of the United States. Including its RFD-TV viewership, the series reaches more than 40 million viewers each season. The seventh season was underwritten by the United Soybean Board, the American Farm Bureau Foundation for Agriculture and Farm Credit, with the latter announcing it also would underwrite the series' eighth season. The National Cotton Council is among six organizations that provide in-kind production support.
