Success StoryVegetable Production Field Day



Vegetable Production Field Day

Author: T. Adam Probst

Planning Unit: Woodford County CES

Major Program: Horticulture, Commercial

Plan of Work: Market Opportunities

Outcome: Initial Outcome

As many traditional tobacco/cattle farms are still looking to remain profitable, diversifying into vegetable production has been a common theme.  In order to provide these producers with some of the tools/information that they may need to get started, the Woodford County Extension ANR and Horticulture agents teamed together to provide a hands-on field day at commercial vegetable production.  Over 30 producers learned more about vegetable crop rotation, insect management, irrigation, and plasticulture.  Equipment demonstrations also showed producers how to properly use available rental equipment for vegetable production.
