Our latest ZimmPoll asked the question, “What is your favorite social media outlet for agriculture?”

It’s a tie! The two oldest forms of social media, Facebook and Twitter, rose to the top. When it comes to social media marketing in the agricultural field they ring tried and true. I still encourage people to step out of their comfort zones and see what other platforms have to offer. It is 2016 and social media is here to stay. Embrace it!

Here are the poll results:

• Facebook – 44%
• Twitter – 44%
• Instagram – 5%
• YouTube – 4%
• Pinterest – 3%
