Adair County gets $32,000 for county technology programs

The Kentucky Agricultural Development Board, chaired by Governor Ernie Fletcher, approved agricultural diversification projects which included $32,000 for county technology programs which assist agricultural producers in their operations. The grant was made at the KADB's monthly board meeting on July 20, 2007, at Hilton Cincinnati Airport in Florence, KY.


Governor Ernie Fletcher and the Kentucky Legislature continue to make great strides toward lessening Kentuckys dependence on tobacco production while revitalizing the farm economy by investing 50 percent of Kentucky's Master Settlement Agreement into the Kentucky Agricultural Development Fund.

To date, Kentucky has invested more than $250 million to an array of county, regional and state projects designed to increase net farm income and create sustainable new farm-based business enterprises. The diversification programs represent more than 3,037 projects that have been funded through Agricultural Development Fund, since the inception of the program in January 2001.
