Success StoryCounty Cattlemen's Tennessee Trip



County Cattlemen's Tennessee Trip

Author: Beau Neal

Planning Unit: Woodford County CES

Major Program: Beef

Plan of Work: Leadership Development

Outcome: Intermediate Outcome

Trip was planned for the Fayette County Cattleman's Association to tour cattle operations in Southern Kentucky and Middle Tennessee.  16 participants took part in the three day trip.  The first stop was CPC Commodities in Fountain Run, KY, then onto Red Hill Angus in Lafayette, TN.  The next day we toured a historic Distillery in Tennessee, along with a reputable Angus Cattle operation known as Deer Valley Angus. These diversified operations allowed our producers to see different perspectives on cattle farming and learn new management techniques that may be well suited for Kentucky producers as well.
