Success StoryFayette County Cattlemen's Florida Education Trip



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.
