The Boyle County Farm Bureau Federation along with the ANR agent have been responsible for working with the Phase 1 cost share program. The CAIP program had 119 applicants and there was enough money to fund 63 producers involving $131,000. The extension office remains the main contact for all phase 1 activities. The Boyle county Agriculture Development Council, Boyle county Farm Bureau Federation Board, and the extension service have all worked together to provide the leadership in distributing the county cost share money. Through the educational aspect as well as being the contact for receipts it has really helped extension build relationships with producers that we might not have had any contacts with otherwise.
