Tyne Morgan

Tyne Morgan is doing what she calls her dream job. She’s a Missouri girl who has generations of agriculture rooted in her blood. Born and raised in Lexington, Mo., FFA was a big part of her high school career. Her father is an agriculture teacher/FFA Advisory and was her biggest supporter/teacher. Through public speaking and various contest teams, she actually plunged into broadcast at the young age of 16. While in high school, she worked at KMZU radio providing the daily farm market updates, as well as local, state and national agriculture news. Today, Tyne is the first female host of U.S. Farm Report and resides in rural Missouri with her husband and two daughters where she has a passion for helping support her local community.
