In Woodford County, 73% of all farmland is established in hay and forage crops. As such, weeds can often impact not only forage yields, but quality as well.

Oran Little Research Center located in Versailles to conduct a county-wide field day looking at new technologies in weed control in those forage crops. Twenty producers in attendance all indicated that they would try these new technologies that could improve their yield and quality of livestock feed/forage.
