In this paper, we investigate semisymmetric graphs which arise from affine primitive permutation groups. We give a characterization of such graphs, and then construct an infinite family of semisymmetric graphs which contains the Gray graph as the third smallest member. Then, as a consequence, we obtain a factorization,of the complete bipartite graph $K_{p^{sp^t},p^{sp^t}}$ into connected semisymmetric graphs, where $p$ is an prime, $1\le t\le s$ with $s\ge2$ while $p=2$.
