News & Market places the news front and center and its market functions in a more secondary position. The news itself consists of in-depth reports by its three in-house writers and its editor, as well as articles by more than 600 freelance contributors. Since many of its freelancers are also small farmers, the numbers of articles posted on the site vary with the seasons.
