Milby interning with KDA this summer

From Lisa Tolliver

Frankfort, KY - Kentucky Commissioner of Agriculture Dr. Ryan Quarles is welcoming eight college students to the Kentucky Department of Agriculture (KDA) campus as summer interns, including University of Kentucky student Riley Milby of Campbellsville.

"Our internship program offers college students a unique opportunity to work alongside our employees and agriculture community," Commissioner Quarles said. "From past experiences, we know this program provides a great advantage to those who want to continue in the agriculture field, helping to launch careers in agriculture or an ag-related field. Some of our interns even go on to become KDA employees."

The Kentucky Department of Agriculture's eight-week summer internship program has provided opportunities for students to gain first-hand experience, knowledge, and understanding of the governmental process through pre-professional work in various occupational fields.


KDA offers students studying majors both directly and indirectly relating to agriculture. Career paths of current and former interns include, but are not limited to, agriculture, education, computer science, marketing, public relations, and pre-law.

KDA interns work alongside KDA employees learning the various programs the department is involved allowing them to gain insight into considering a future career within the ag industry and with KDA.

This year's interns, are:
  • Morgynne Lunsford, Cynthiana, attending University of Kentucky
  • Gracie Mika, Frankfort, attending Western Kentucky University
  • Riley Milby, Campbellsville, attending University of Kentucky
  • Landon Muse, Calhoun, attending West Texas A&M
  • Emery Poore, Lexington, attending University of Kentucky
  • Braden Porter, Gracey, attending University of Kentucky
  • Benjamin Williams, Bloomfield, attending University of Kentucky
  • Madison Wilmoth, Magnolia, attending University of Kentucky
