Cattlemen's Meeting/CAIP training
Author: Jessica James
Planning Unit: Henderson County CES
Major Program: Beef
Plan of Work: Agricultural Practices
Outcome: Long-Term Outcome
There was a need in the county for educational hours for CAIP (County Agriculture Improvement Program) applications. It is required that applicants receive educational hours to apply for Cost Share. This educational program covered topics in the beef industry including cattle handling and how to raise cattle in small confinement operations. Two different UK beef specialists discussed these topics with producers. This program was well attended and a lot of questions were asked by producers. The target audience was beef producers or anyone wanting to learn more about the beed industry. There were 10 in attendance. After the program, participants brought their applications to me and the specialists so that we could sign that they had completed their educational hours.
UK Specialists involved: Dr. Kevin Laurent and Dr. Katie VanValin
