Fayette County Cattlemen's Florida Education Trip
Author: Beau Neal
Planning Unit: Woodford County CES
Major Program: Beef
Plan of Work: Green and Sustainable Living
Outcome: Initial Outcome
Trip was planned for the Fayette County Cattleman's Association to tour cattle operations in Florida. Twelve participants flew to Sarasota, FL or two days. The first stop was University of Florida Beef and Forage Research Farm in Ona, FL. We also toured BlackBeard Ranch and Daken Dairy. 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.
