The Jackson County Agriculture Agent worked alongside the agriculture development council and the CAIP administrator to help implement a CAIP program in Jackson County. The program approved 108 producers to receive 75% cost share on up to $1900.00. Producers were eligible to invest in 11 different program areas to improve their farms. These projects ranged from superior bulls to hay sheds and fencing. Over $200,000.00 was spent in 2020-2021 by producers to improve agriculture in Jackson County, a continuation of the millions of dollars that have improved Jackson County agriculture since the tobacco buyout.
