in
this
building
or

from
some
or
some
other

So

Okay,
we're

C
C
C
A
Do
I
have
a

there's
a
second
all
in
favor,
say

I
oppose
it
is
unanimous.
Now
we
are
ready
for
some
reports.
Mr
riceville,
you
want
to
go
first.
F
F
We
would
we're
having
a
joint
board
meeting
convincing
after
this
meeting
and
we'll
run
through
through
tomorrow,
but
I
had
a
couple
of
my
board
members
that
have
joined
and
we
we
had
a
few
others
that
were
scheduled
to,
but
had
some
differing
life
circumstances
that
have
changed
the
itinerary
and
I
just
noticed,
as
I
was
looking
at
my
my
two
two
board
members
that
have
made
it.
I've
got
the
book
ends
of
the
kentucky
ag
development
board.
F
I
have
the
the
longest
serving
board
member
president
in
the
room
wayne
hunt,
who
was
there
at
the
the
beginning
at
house,
bill
611
and
has
served
continuously
since
that
that
time
and
also
serves
on
ag
development
board,
but
serves
as
the
ag
development
board
representative
on
the
kentucky
ag
finance
council.
So
not
only
is
he
ties
back
to
the
beginning
of
the
ag
development
fund.
He
also
represents
both
ag
development
and
ag.
F
Finance
next
is
michael
peterson
and
he
is
the
newest
appointed
member
to
the
kentucky
ag
development
board,
an
agribusinessman
and
a
farmer
from
pulaski
county,
and
he
he
joins
us
came
on
board
two
months
ago
right
so
we're
tickled
to
have
them
and
and
chairman.
I
invite.
We've
got
great
resources
here
that
that
have
joined
us
and
after
mine
and
executive
deputy
executive
director
mccloskey's
report.
F
If
you
would
like
to
talk
with
either
of
those,
I
know
they
can
provide
some
some
great
insight
to
to
our
organization.
Also
we're
very
excited
to
have
our
commissioner
quarles
with
us
and
his
chief
of
staff
keith
rogers.
F
Also,
we
we
try
to
do
a
good
job
to
bring
our
staff
in
front
of
you,
so
you
see
more
than
than
bill,
and
I
each
time
each
month
and
we've
got
two
of
our
newest
staff
members.
At
the
kentucky
office
of
ag
policy,
we
have
hannah
johnson
hannah.
If
you
stand
up
there
or
wave
that
that's
good
hannah
is,
is
our
boards
and
special
events
manager
and
she
is
a
university
of
kentucky
graduate
with
a
degree
in
community
leadership,
and
she
is
a
hardin
county
native
next.
F
We
have
lane
ryan
way
for
the
group
there,
and
lane
is
another
university
of
kentucky
graduate
in
ag
economics
and
also
from
hardin
county,
and
she
is
our
administrative
loan
manager
and,
as
the
most
recent
hire,
I
think
I
think
her
first
day
was
the
last
day
I
was
here
last
month.
I
think
so.
F
You
got
a
got
a
month
under
your
belt,
now
lane,
okay,
well,
a
couple
of
things
I
want
to
walk
through
before
bill
gives
a
a
summary
of
what
was
funded
last
month,
but
trust
everybody
picked
up
or
had
provided
at
your
seat.
F
Our
our
annual
summary
for
the
folks
remotely
we'll
we'll
make
sure
you
get
a
copy
of
this,
but
apologize,
don't
have
have
this
electronically
to
to
walk
through,
but
just
want
to
hit
a
couple
of
highlights
with
you
in
the
the
room,
we're
we're
very
excited
for
what
has
happened
in
the
last
year
with
the
ag
development
fund.
F
I
think
the
the
first
thing
is
to
talk
about
senate
bill
3
and
the
successful
transition
that
we
have
had
moving
from
the
governor's
office
to
the
kentucky
department
of
agriculture,
and
we
can
say
that
this
was
a
smooth
transition.
Business
continued
as
as
agreed
as
planned
and
as
proposed
with
with
all
program
payments
being
issued
and
all
all
loans
being
being
administered.
F
So
we're
we're
very
proud
of
that.
F
We
got
a
great
great
message
from
the
the
commissioner
in
there
got
on
page
six,
a
a
list
of
our
board
members
that
that
currently
serve
on
the
ag
development
board
and
and
their
their
home
counties
their
terms
and
then
the
the
seat
that
they
they
feel.
F
When
you
look
at
the
last
fiscal
year,
we
had
341
total
projects
that
totaled
over
36
million
dollars
and
the
majority,
if
not
all,
of
these
projects
involved,
some
type
of
cost
share,
so
you're,
looking
at
a
50
percent
or
greater
of
private
capital
going
into
this
as
well.
So
I
I
always
like
to
when
you
look
at
these
investment
dollars
by
the
ag
development
fund.
F
That's
that
really
needs
a
multiplier
applied
to
it
to
look
at
a
times
two
for
the
overall
economic
impact
for
the
the
cost
share,
putting
into
it
you're
looking
at
over
70
million
dollars
in
investment
in
kentucky
agriculture,
from
both
a
public
and
private
investment.
F
Big
big
programs
we'll
talk
about
in
a
minute
our
meat
processing
investment.
There
you
can
see
what
was
actually
in
the
calendar
year,
31
projects
funded
3.8
million
dollars.
Two
other
projects
that
well
not
a
a
as
much
dollars
invested.
They
were
significant
across
the
the
state,
but
our
on-farm
energy
efficiency
program,
which
provides
incentives
for
kentucky
farm
families
to
increase
energy
efficiency
of
existing
equipment.
F
So
this
is
something
that
again
we're
giving
a
cost
share
to
help
somebody
make
an
upgrade
to
a
grain
dryer
or
have
solar
panels
running
a
a
broiler
house
just
again
ways
that
we
can.
We
can
have
this
this
economic
carrot
to
incentivize
best
practice
management,
the
same
with
our
on-farm
water
program.
12
projects
across
the
state,
281
thousand
dollars
invested
another
big
one
that
that
was
actually
money
that
came
out
of
2019
funding
or
was
alec
was
a
was
approved
in
2019.
F
But
as
many
things,
that's
happened
with
with
kovid.
There
were
a
lot
of
delays
in
the
implementation
was
the
decision
it
right
under
half
a
million
dollars
400,
and
I
think
84
000
was
allocated
to
the
21
counties
that
that
had
30,
000
or
less
of
of
money
derived
by
the
the
formula
that
comes
back
now,
two
of
our
counties,
pike
and
not
had
had
zero
funds.
They
had
no
historic
tobacco
dependency
and
and
other
other
counties
were
just
right
almost
at
that
thirty
thousand
dollar
level.
F
So
so
the
I
think
marshall
was
was
all
the
closest
to
it.
Marshall
got
200
dollars
that
brought
them
up
to
30
000
and
then
our
two
counties
pike
and
not
that
had
had
historically
not
been
able
to
participate
at
county
level.
Now
there
have
been
projects
there
funded
at
state
level
dollars,
but
in
this
one
with
county
they
were
able
to
to
have
funds
that
that
are
now
going
out
and
they're
able
to
run
county
level
programs
there.
So
I
think
that
is
a
big
win
for
our
commonwealth.
F
F
The
the
county
agriculture
investment
program
is
by
far
the
the
biggest
program
that
we
run.
It
is
it's
a
menu
based
program
that
has
11
different
investment
areas,
so
there
are
there's,
there's
literally
something
for
everyone.
That
is,
is
looking
at
trying
to
participate
in
these
cost
share
programs
and
again
they
are
tied
to
matching
dollars
from
from
their
their
participants.
We
had
96
of
our
counties
that
administered
a
program
during
the
the
last
year.
F
Sometimes
there
are
reasons
where
there
may
not
be
be
a
program
they
may
historically
have
done
it
take
a
year
off
to
save
funds
for
a
bigger
project,
or
they
may
actually
be
in
a
staffing
situation.
This
is
some
of
the
things
bill
and
I
do
and
the
the
time
we're
not
here
talking
to
you-
is
check
in
with
these
counties
if
we're
seeing
that
they
have
not
run
their
historic
program,
we're
finding
out
the
reason
why,
but
we
had
over
16
million
dollars
in
in
the
96
programs
for
for
our
cape
program.
F
The
second
biggest
program
that
has
gained
in
popularity
is
the
youth
agriculture
incentive
program,
and
this
is
one
that
benefits
youth
who
are
interested
in
learning
more
about
agriculture,
with
cost-share
programs
from
them
for
differing
differing
projects
that
they
may
be
involved
in
at
28.
Counties
that
ran
these
programs
last
year
with
right
at
a
half
a
million
dollars
shared
use
equipment
is
our
number
three
program
and
it's
one.
I
really
love
to
see
utilized
in
these
communities.
F
Again,
I'm
an
old
banker
and
economist-
and
I
know
sometimes
it's
not
efficient
for
you
to
own
every
piece
of
equipment
that
you
need
to
utilize
on
your
farm
operation.
So
it's
great
when
you
can
have
something
that
you
may
only
need
to
use
one
or
two
times
a
year
and
in
a
non-profit
group
can
administer
this
and
you
can.
F
You
can
rent
that
our
number
number
one
is
the
the
no-till
drill
and
I
I'm
proud
to
see
that
we
had
445
thousand
dollars
invested
in
programs
for
shared
use
equipment
in
19
of
our
counties.
F
Another
one,
our
deceased
farm
animal
removal
program
which
can
be
utilized
with
with
a
fiscal
court
or
another
non-profit
entity
to
to
purchase
equipment
for
dead
animal
removal
or
for
some
type
of
environmentally
sound
disposal
of
this
21
counties,
participated
right
at
220
000.
For
that
program,
again,
great
programs,
I
encourage
you
to
to
look
at
each
and
every
one
of
the
programs.
We
picked
a
few
to
highlight
to
try
to
represent
some
differing
projects,
to
show
some
of
the
the
things
that
are,
these
dollars
are
being
utilized.
F
For
that
may
not
be
aware:
we've
got
on
page
10
and
11.
Several
different
programs
had
one
tagged
if
senator
hornbach
was
going
to
be
here,
we
had
had
one
in
in
baghdad
the
baghdad
roller
mills
program.
For
for
his,
then,
as
we
always
talk
about
the
ag
development
fund,
we
also
have
the
kentucky
ag
finance
corporation,
and
then
we
have
a
section
of
the
annual
summary
that
is
going
over
this.
F
It
also
outlines
our
board
members
and
looks
at
what
their
their
seats
that
they're
they're
feeling
in
statutory
spots
big
year
for
us,
as
we've
talked
about
several
times
that
our
assets
have
reached
now.
F
100
million
dollars
in
kentucky
ag
finance
that
was
done
this
summer,
when
five
million
dollars
was
moved
from
the
ag
development
fund
to
ag
finance,
and
we
have
a
series
of
loans
that
that
we
have
programs
that
that
are
working
from
our
infrastructure
program
to
our
to
our
one
for
diversification
and
entrepreneurship
and
ag
businesses
and
ag
processing.
F
By
and
far
our
biggest
number
of
participants
and
biggest
dollars
allocated
is
to
our
beginning
farmer
loan
program,
and
this
is
a
fantastic
program
that
assists
individuals
and
beginning
farmers,
not
necessarily
a
young
farmer.
It
is
somebody
that
is
just
10
years
or
less
experienced
in
in
farming,
but
helps
them
to
be
able
to
to
have
access
to
capital
to
begin
their
farming
operation,
and
this
can
be
beyond
just
buying
a
farm.
This
could
also
be
used
to
purchase
a
interest
into
a
going
concerned.
F
Business
we
had
61
loans,
approved
11
million
dollars
in
total
funded
projects
for
for
this
one
representative,
king,
one
of
the
ones,
that's
in
your
neighboring
county
there
in
boyle
county
with
the
caverndale
farms
and
and
then
senator
emery.
We
had
one
there
in
ohio
county.
The
agrigo
farm
store
was
one
of
our
projects
that
we
were
proud
to
participate
in
this
past
year
with
the
ag
finance
corporation,
so
encourage
you
to
read
those
stories.
F
Lastly,
we
have
on
here
our
staff,
you
all
get
to
see
bill
and
I
every
month,
but
it
is
truly
the
the
the
staff
members,
the
other
13
members
of
the
kentucky
office
of
ag
policy
that
is
making
these
things
happen.
It
is
a
a
lot
of
projects,
I'm
very
proud
at
how
efficiently
we
run
this
shop
to
be
able
to
administer
this
amount
of
funds.
This
amount
of
loans
and
do
this
with
with
only
15
dedicated
employees.
F
So
that's
that's
the
the
lineup
as
they
they
existed
at
the
end
of
the
fiscal
year.
As
you
see,
we
do
have
some
some
other
folks
and
also
a
special
thanks
to
cara
keaton,
our
communications
manager
and
her
organization.
There
was
a
contribution
from
all
of
staff
in
this
report,
but
cara
was
running
point
on
that
and
then
working
with
sean
southard
and
his
communication
team
over
at
the
kda.
So
thanks
to
them
we'll
be
getting
electronic
copies
of
this
out.
B
Thank
you,
mr
chair,
and
thank
you
all
the
entire
group
for
being
here
today.
I
have
three
quick
questions.
If,
if
the
chair
is
okay
with
that,
do
you
and
your
board
see
a
program
that
is
under
utilized?
Is
there
something
we
need
to
be
taking
more
advantage
of
of
the
projects
and
the
opportunities
that
are
available.
F
Well,
that
that's
an
excellent
question-
and
I
I
think
there
there
probably
are
some
of
these,
these
programs
that
we
have
not
been
able
to
to
to
explore
to
their
fullest
potential,
and
that's
one
of
the
things
we're
going
to
be
talking
about
here.
The
next
two
days
with
having
both
boards
together
and
having
a
facilitator
come
in
and
last
month
I
talked
about
the
survey
that
we
sent
out
to
all
of
our
our
stakeholders,
all
of
partners
that
we
we
work
with
and
getting
feedback
with
with
them.
B
Yes-
and
I
don't
mean
that
as
a
slight
to
you
all
at
all-
it's
just-
I
think
there
are
ag
producers
out
there
or
potential
lag
producers
that
just
aren't
taking
advantage
of
the
great
opportunities
that
you
all
have
available
for
them.
That
is
question
number
one.
Chair
number
two.
I
saw
the
the
program
about
large
animal
vets
and
I
see
that
in
my
travels
across
the
state
quite
a
bit,
is
there
a
bit
of
encouragement
or
what
can
we
do
to
encourage
folks?
We
need
small
animal
vets
too.
F
Well,
that
that
is
a
very
big
concern
and
one
I've
I've
heard
in
my
my
20
years
of
professionally
working
in
agriculture
in
kentucky
and
it's
one
that
seems
to
be
getting
more
and
more
concerned
as
we're
seeing
some
of
these
long-term
large
animal
vets
retiring
and
we
want
to
see
them
come
in,
and
that
was
the
spirit
of
this
program
is
to
give
give
again.
I
like
to
think
of
so
many
of
these
programs
they're
the
economic
carrot
to
try
to
get
get
the
best
management
practices
out
there.
F
So
if
we
can
create
an
opportunity
with
a
not
just
the
low-interest
loan,
but
it's
the
the
participation
that
we
do
in
taking
that
second
position,
we're
we're
we're
here
to
take
some
risk
and
that's
what
we
do
and
as
an
old
banker,
you
know
that's
what
I
used
to
always
like
working
with
with
bill
here
and
knowing
that,
if
I
could
get
kentucky
ag
finance
to
come
in,
then
I
could
probably
sell
my
board
on
this
project
because
of
our
improved
security
position.
F
So
it's
a
it's
a
win-win
to
help
get
these
deals
done
because,
as
you're
coming
out
of
vet
school
you're,
you're,
probably
you
know
hopefully
not
having
a
large
amount
of
student
loan
debt,
but
possibly
have
a
large
that.
But
you
have
not
amassed
much
of
an
equity
stake
at
this
point
normally
in
life
to
where
you're
going
to
be
in
financial
position
to
buy
into
that
practice.
So
if
we
can
encourage
folks
or
have
this
program
to
do
this,
it
creates
a
pathway,
but
that's
just
one.
I
mean
we.
F
We
need
to
be
doing
more
to
to
recruit
folks
to
to
come
back
into
this
community.
So
you
all
are
great
folks
to
centers
of
influence
in
your
communities.
You
can
be
the
best
salesperson.
We
have
when
you're
doing
your
your
town
hall
meetings
to
to
make
sure
you
plug
this,
that
this
is
a
a
program
that's
available
to
to
everybody
in
the
state.
F
With
our
ag
finance
dollars,
there
is
no
limit
per
county,
like
we
have
with
with
the
county
funds
going
in
the
ag
development,
so
the
more
participation
with
this,
the
better.
B
Great
great
well,
our
our
family
is
doing
our
part
on
this
particular
project.
We
have
five
granddaughters
and
granddaughter
two
of
five
as
a
senior
in
high
school
this
year
and
showing
interest
in
being
a
vet.
So
she
has
plans
to
shadow
the
some
of
the
large
animal
vets
that
practice
in
our
area.
So
we're
we're
pushing
her
her
in
that.
In
that
vein,
and
my
final
question,
mr
chair,
I
think
the
numbers-
the
financials
were
very
impressive
on
on
that
page
here
in
the
booklet.
F
Absolutely
we
review
the
finances
every
month
with
the
board
and-
and
I
think
that
the
the
status
that
we
are
in
is
is
thanks
to
the
good
fiscal
management
of
of
this
board
throughout
its
21
years
of
history
and
and
I
I
enjoy
the
the
process
we
have
with
our
oversight
committee,
I
I
enjoy
being
able
to
come
monthly
and
share
with
you
all
what
we
are
doing
and
and
where,
where
we
we
hope
to
be
going.
F
So
I
commend
everybody
involved
in
the
process
now,
but
also
give
a
hat
tip
back
to
everybody.
That's
been
involved
in
this
process
throughout
every
administration
for
for
the
last
21
years
and
representative
king
I'll
add
on
with
this
vet
crisis.
We've
got
the
lace.
Fields
are
doing
our
part,
my
my
daughter's
a
senior
this
year,
and
we
just
spent
the
last
week
on
a
tour
of
colleges.
Looking
with
that
and
that
that
is
still
her
number
one
interest
right
now,.
B
G
So
I
think-
and
I
have
discussions
with
with
him-
often
he's
active
in
kvma,
but
you
know
about
and
what
we
can
do
from
our
relationships
with
auburn
and
ohio
state
and
others,
because
you
know
we
do
have
the
reciprocity
and
and
maybe
that
we
should
be
looking
at
tightening
some
of
that
criteria
or
offering
additional
incentives
in
our
contractual
situation
with
them
to
encourage
it.
So
I
think
the
kbma
is
looking
at
it.
I
know
there's
communication
going
on,
but
it's
policy
makers.
G
I
think
we
might
be
able
to
incent
that
a
little
better
and
help
you
all
do
that
because
it
it's
it's
almost
as
bad
as
our
processing
situation.
I.
C
G
Really,
we've
got
some
great
dedicated
veterinarians,
but
they
too
a
lot
of
them
are
getting
older
selling
practices,
so
we've
got
to
work
on
ways
to
incent
and
send
these
people
so,
and
I
appreciate
the
work
that
you
all
have
done.
I
think
you
know
we
are
an
international
model.
G
It's
one
of
the
elder
statesmen
house
bill
611,
the
only
man,
woman
standing,
I
guess
still,
but
certainly
you
know
the
responsible
actions
of
the
board
and
and
of
course,
having
having
you
there.
Now
with
with
your
finance
background
and,
and
that
kind
of
thing
I
just
feel
good
about
the
program
and
proud
of
it.
So
I
want
to
thank
you
all
and
the
commissioner
for
taking
it
on
thanks.
F
A
F
All
right:
well,
the
next
thing
you
all
should
have
had
in
your
your
packet
that
were
provided
in
advance
was
our
summary
on
our
meat
processing,
and
this
has
got
a
lot
of
information.
But
I'm
going
to
hit
basically
four
bullet
points
on
it
and
you
can.
You
can
dig
the
the
rest
out
at
your
your
leisure,
so
we
have
time
for
other
questions
and
discussion,
but
the
meat
processing
and
you
can
see
what
we
have
done
since
the
history
of
the
ag
development
funds.
F
But
what
I
want
to
touch
on
is
the
the
meat
processing
incentive
program
that
has
just
been
run.
That's
gone
on
in
the
the
last
two
phys,
the
current
fiscal
year
in
the
the
one
prior,
but
where
we
were
to
date.
At
that
report
we
had
4.7
million
dollars,
invested
in
37
different
projects,
so
on
average
and
twenty
eight
thousand
dollars
per
project
and
then
on
page
13
of
your
package,
you,
you
see
a
map
that
that
that
really
illustrates
what
I
love
to
see
happen
with
these
ag.
F
Development
dollars
is
truly
spread
across
kentucky
from
graves
to
green
up.
Senator
webb
is
how
I
keep
talking
about
that
in
my
my
stump
speeches.
F
You
do
feed
me
good
in
greenhouse
county
on
that,
so
we
we
we,
we
truly
spread
the
state
with
those
37
projects
and
then
increase
the
capacity
of
slaughter
capacity
in
kentucky
68
with
this
project,
raising
it
up.
22
652
head
a
year
with
this
increased
capacity.
Now
that
does
factor
when
all
these
are
fully
online
and
what
we're
doing,
and
that
is
broken
down
for
you
on
page
14.,
and
when
I'm
doing
that
when
I
talk
in
in
these
terms
we're
looking
at
a
beef
equivalent.
F
Even
though
we're
going
to
be
processing
different
sized
animals,
we
we
scale
that
up.
So
that
is,
and
that
program
continues
where
we
we
have
not
seen
the.
I
guess
we
see
it
slow,
slow
down
at
some
point,
but
we
still
have
some
active
applications
that
are
working
through
the
process.
F
All
right-
and
I
mentioned
earlier
that
we'll
be
following
this
meeting,
we'll
be
beginning
a
two-day
joint
board
meeting
with
both
ag
development
board
and
the
ag
finance
board,
and
so
we're
looking
forward
to
to
good
discussion
and
possibly
representative
king
looking
at
some
of
these
programs
that
we
do
need
to
increase
some
outreach
effort
on.
But
we'd
like
to
turn
over.
At
this
point
to
to
the
deputy
director
bill.
Mccloskey
to
to
recap,
the
programs
and
projects
that
were
approved
at
the
last
board
meeting.
E
All
right,
thank
you,
chairman
bill,
mccloskey,
deputy
executive
director
and
I've
had
the
opportunity
or
good
fortune
to
work
with
this
program
for
20
years,
so
senator
webb,
when
you
mention
we're
international
model
that
warms
my
heart
to
know
that
we're
not
only
a
national
model
but
an
international
model,
and
we
want
to
keep
that
moving.
Keep
that
momentum
going
forward.
So
I
want
to
give
you
an
update
today.
On
the
last
time
the
tag
development
board
met,
which
was
september,
the
17th.
E
So
if
you'll
turn
to
page
one,
you
can
see
update
on
programs,
we
had
six
counties
approved
for
the
cape
program,
county
agriculture,
investment
program
for
1.1
million
dollars,
deceased
farm
animal
removal
program.
You
got
an
update
in
the
annual
report
on
that
program,
so
two
counties
approved
for
twenty
two
thousand
five
hundred
dollars:
next
generation
farmers
in
scott
county,
twenty
five
thousand,
that's
the
home
of
commissioner
quarrel.
So
I've
got
some
future
beginning
farmers
or
next
generation
coming
up
through
the
ranks
shared
use,
equipment,
hopkins
county
purchased,
two
no-till
drills.
E
The
first
two
dollar
amounts
represent
the
county,
money
and
state
money,
and
we
we
report
that
to
you
separately
on
the
state
money
that
goes
back
to
the
400
484
thousand
dollars,
that
executive
lakes
field
reported
to
you
earlier
again.
Hopkins
county
is
one
of
those
counties,
so
they're
going
to
commit
or
invest
their
money
in
this
case,
no-till
drill.
E
So
the
first
piece
of
equipment
is
a
10-foot
no-till
drill
for
25
162
dollars,
but
the
total
cost
is
thirty,
three
thousand
three
five
hundred
fifty
dollars,
so
they
can
use
the
75
option
for
funding
and
then
they
also
purchased
a
seven
foot
drill
and
utilize
five
21
sixty
three
dollars
and
counting
funds
and,
as
reported
earlier,
no
till
the
shared
use
equipment
program
is
very
popular
and
then,
by
far
the
no-till
drill
is
the
number
one
piece
of
equipment
that
is
purchased
to
help
and
make
available
for
rental
for
for
farmers
in
the
county,
and
then
the
youth
program,
two
counties,
larue
county
and
buffalo
buffalo
trace
administering
the
program
for
mason,
county
and
representative
king.
E
This
is
one
program.
We
see
the
momentum
continuing
in
this
program.
We
realized
several
years
ago.
There
was
interest
at
the
county
level
and
this
invest
some
of
their
county
money
in
the.
U,
so
we
worked
on
working
with
the
board,
develop
this
program
to
make
it
easier
for
that
investment
as
a
and
then
so
and
then
buffalo
traces.
E
All
right
next
you're
on
page
three,
so
we've
got
the
program
amendments
oldham
county
is
making
a
an
amendment,
a
thousand
dollars
to
their
youth
program
and
eleven
thousand
dollars
to
the
cape
program.
So
a
lot
of
cases
representative
pratt,
the
counties
will
commit
a
portion
of
their
money
to
a
program,
hold
back
money
for
future
possible
projects
and
if
those
don't
materialize,
then
they'll
come
back
and
do
an
amendment
and
commit
the
money
to
the
to
the
program.
E
Next,
on
page
four,
we
have
the
update
on
on-farm
water,
small
scale,
grant
pro
project
or
program,
and
this
applicant
was
approved
for
ten
thousand
dollars
actually
has
a
hundred
acres
of
vegetable
production,
so
senator
webb
we
like
to
see
these
type
of
projects
is
where
the
whole
initiative
of
this
or
what
you're
charging
us
with
is
helping
these
farmers
transition
out
to
backing
other
enterprises.
So
we
see
vegetable
production
continue
to
increase.
E
Next
we
get
into
projects
on
page
five
is
a
creation
garden,
so
they
were
approved
for
373
259
dollars
in
state
funds,
renovate
and
repurpose
a
facility
in
bardstown
to
do
e-commerce
and
selling
kentucky
products
specifically
kentucky
proud
products.
Now
we've
got
a
history
of
working
with
creation
guards.
E
I
know
y'all
had
updates
from
dave,
maples
and
cadman's
association
about
the
beef
solutions
pro
program,
where
they're
working
with
cattle
producers
to
identify
and
for
for
the
beef
solutions
program,
they're,
they're
processed
at
marksbury,
slaughter
facility
in
garrett
county
and
then
they
go
to
creation,
gardens
be
ground
up
into
hamburger
and
then
distributed
to
kroger
for
kentucky
proud
hamburger.
Well,
creation
gardens
is
that
company,
that's
part
of
that
supply
chain
is
providing
grinding
hamburgers.
They
also
have
distribution
of
food
products
to
institutions
and
restaurants
in
every
county
in
the
state.
E
A
E
And
this
location
is
in
bardstown
and
again,
as
I
said,
if
you've
seen
their
trucks,
they're,
big
red
trucks,
gardens
creations,
they're,
delivering
product
in
every
county
in
the
state,
either
institutions
like
schools
or
doing
the
restaurants
as
well,
so
a
significant
network
in
the
in
the
state
and
really
committed
to
purchasing
local
all
right.
Next.
Moving
on
to
page
six,
we've
got
stepping
stone
farm.
This
is
a
request
from
established
farm
family
in
the
bourbon
in
harrison
county.
This
is
the
next
generation
is
expanding
into
non-traditional.
E
Agriculture
could
be
agritourism
or
activities
events,
the
principles
on
are
ali
barnett
and
hannah
barnett,
they're,
sister-in-laws
and
allie
has
experience
in
the
special
events
sector
and
so
she's
bringing
us
back
to
back
to
the
farm.
You
see
the
the
application
summary
the
different
types
of
activities
and
programs
they'd
ask
for
a
requested,
300
000
in
state
funds.
Now,
when
ag
development
board,
looks
at
these
type
of
projects
they're
looking
at
and
trying
to
evaluate,
what's
the
impact
and
is
it
beyond
just
the
individual?
E
Is
there
going
to
be
impact
in
the
county
to
other
producers
or
regionally?
If
it's?
If
it's
more
limited
to
the
individual
to
look
at
matching
county
money
with
states,
in
other
words,
have
to,
they
have
to
request
county
money
can
be
matched
by
state,
and
then
we
also
offer
the
kentucky
agriculture
finance
corporation.
E
Under
the
diversification
the
deal
programs
acronym
on
it
was
diversification
through
entrepreneurship.
It's
one
of
the
programs
that
we
reported
on
earlier.
They
did
make
a
request
that
that's
one
of
our
newer
loan
programs,
that's
targeted
to
non-traditional
agriculture.
So
if
you
got
young
in
this
case,
you
know
the
next
generation
or
that
are
coming
on
and
wanting
to
do
different
types
of
offer,
their
kind
of
products
and
services
for
farmers
or
consumers.
E
They
can
access
the
the
loan
program
which
again
they
were
approved
for
250
000
loan
under
kentucky
ag
finance
corporation
by
the
way
representative
king
we've
got
700
loans
in
the
ag
finance
programs.
Our
reporting
to
executive
director
lacefield
in
wayne
hunt
this
morning
they're
all
current,
and
so
then,
and
one
of
the
reasons
why
we've
been
so
successful
on
ag
finances,
we
do
the
participation
arrangement,
the
the
application
originates
through
the
lender
and
then
is
presented
to
the
ag
finance
board.
So
that's
an
update
on
this
project.
E
Next
week
we
go
to
page
seven
berea
college
or
grow
appalachia.
They
were
approved
for
260
575
dollars
to
continue
their
services.
They
offer
farmers,
mostly
in
eastern
kentucky.
They
specialize
in
working
with
smaller
farmers,
limited
resource
farmers
and
the
service
they're
providing
is
more
technical
support,
especially
in
the
area
of
high
tunnels.
We've
probably
got
a
a
thousand
high
tunnels
here
in
the
state,
probably
one
of
the
the
states,
with
the
probably
the
the
most
high
tunnels
reported
and
where
grow
appalachia
comes
in
providing
technical
service
working
with
extension
agents
and
other
organizations.
E
If
for
the
startup,
is
being
able
to
help
them
understand
the
value
of
maybe
doing
a
soil
test,
crop
rotation
in
high
tunnels
and
maybe
helping
them
market
their
products
as
well.
So
they
have
a
history
of
providing
this
service
since
2009
and
as
you
can
see,
the
information
provided.
This
is
the
third
round
of
funding
they've
requested.
Now
the
the
board
has
challenged
them
to
go
to
counties
and
go
to
at
least
15
county
councils
and
get
at
least
15
thousand
dollars
committed
to
the
project
to
access
or
be
eligible
for.
The
two
hundred.
E
Sixty
thousand
dollars
it
was
approved.
This
does
two
things
one.
It
makes
ensures
that
there
is
county
support
or
local
support
for
this
project,
and
they
are
doing
what
they're
doing,
and
it
also
gives
them
a
chance
to
promote
their
program.
They
did
a
presentation
in
mcgoffin
county
on
tuesday
night
and
one
of
the
county
council.
Members
is
a
high
tunnel
producer
in
his
second
year
and
was
was
explaining
the
benefit
of
having
grow
appalachia
help
them
on
the
technical
side
of
it.
E
All
right,
moving
on
to
page
eight
we've
got
blue
glass
roots
farm
production.
This
is
a
non-farm,
a
non-profit
entity
on
a
farm
or
associated
with
an
80
acre
farm
in
fayette
county.
The
individual
is
a
medical
doctor
has
been
quite
successful
and
purchasing
a
farm.
He
wanted
to
make
a
part
of
this
land
available
as
an
incubator
for
vegetable
producers.
E
So
the
incubator,
individuals
that
have
interest
in
vegetable
production
will
have
access
to
this
land
for
a
period
of
time
and
then,
if
they
continue
to
grow
their
business,
then
they
possibly
could
purchase
a
their
own
farm
and
sell
produce
so
set
up
as
a
non-profit,
we've
structured
it
as
a
forgivable
loan.
Since
we're
going
to
make
improvements
to
property
owned
by
an
individual.
But
again
it's
set
up
as
a
non-profit
that
they're
forgivable
over
five
years
and
earned
forgiveness
on
this.
E
E
Next
is
on
page
nine:
we
did
have
a
a
project
that
was
denied
under
the
water
reefs
small
scale
program,
because
it
didn't
have
a
sufficient
gross
farm
income
to
meet
the
the
requirements
and
then
to
wrap
up
page
10
and
11
is
just
our
press.
Release
be
glad
to
answer
any
questions.
G
E
It's
mostly
for
staff,
technical
provider,
techno
assistant,
that's
what
they
specialize
is
going
out
boots
on
the
ground
and
working
with
the
individual
landowners
or
farmers,
and
they
they
collaborate
with
several
different
organizations.
I
know
this
issue
came
up
or
questioned
at
the
oversight.
Last
time,
senator
webb
about
helping
limited
resources,
small-scale
farmers-
and
I
mentioned
this-
is
one
of
those
resources
you
know.
K-Card
is
a
resource.
Kentucky
state
university
is
a
resource
with
this,
with
their
small-scale
grant
program
as
well,
obviously,
university
of
kentucky
presence
in
every
county.
E
E
They're,
an
existing
yeah
they're
they've
been
existing
since
2009.
There
was
a
investor
that
supported
this
program
that
time
and
then
he's
reduced
his
amount
of
investment
over
the
years
and
they
started
requesting
the
funds.
So
the
the
when
they
first
approached
the
ag
development
board.
They
did
have
a
body
of
work
that
showed
that
they
were
access
successful
in
providing
those
services,
and
so
they
they
collaborate
with
a
lot
of
different
organizations.
I
mentioned
earlier
so
a
lot
of
good
support.
I'm.
G
A
little
familiar
with,
but
it
looks
like
they've
got,
you
know,
federal
support
too
so.
E
G
And
then,
if
I
have,
I
have
one
more
I
made
on
the
bluegrass
roots
farm
foundation.
What
is
the
criteria
for
success
on
the
forgivability
of
the
loan.
E
That
continues
to
work
with
at
least
six
to
eight
producers,
they're
growing
the
production
involved
in
incubator
and
they've
got
a
detailed
plan,
and
this
this
project
has
been
supported
by
obviously
university
of
kentucky
and
dean.
Nancy
cox
has
been
very
involved
in
seeing
this
project
going
going
forward.
So
I.
G
E
Have
we
have
a
legal
agreement
to
have
to
execute
to
get
the
funds?
It's
all
on
reimbursement?
It
has
to
spend
the
money
to
to
document
that
the
the
the
resources
are
going
to
be
available
to
the
six
to
eight.
Well,
it's
on
68
acres.
I
have
to
get
the
the
specific
number
of
producers
are
going
to
be
working
with.
We
can
get
that
information.
I.
G
Just
I'm
curious
because
I
think
we're
going
to
be
seeing
a
lot
more
on
the
water
side,
the
next
10
to
20
years-
and
I
think
you
know
any
successful
model
and
I
think
the
committee
needs
to
to
know
where
we
are
and
that
what
the
successful
models
are,
because
I
think
that's
we're
going
to
be
seeing
more
of
that
kind
of
need
for
assistance.
But
thank
you,
mr
chairman,.
B
E
Home
cooks,
they
call
it
e-commerce,
where
it's
it's
a
fulfillment
center.
So
you
as
a
consumer,
you
might
go
online
and
say
I
want
different
products
grown
here
locally
and
then
it'd
be
aggregated
there
at
the
bardstown
facility
and
put
them
together
as
a
package
and
then
mail
it
out
to
you.
F
Correct
I'll
give
you
an
example,
representative,
king
this
this
year
for
father's
day
was
gonna,
have
trouble
getting
to
my
my
dad's
house
to
to
celebrate,
and
so
I
actually
went
to
a
a
kentucky
farmer
that
is
doing
retail
meat,
and
I
I
ordered
it
to
be
shipped
to
to
my
father.
So
he
could
have
some
good
steaks
on
that
day
and
it
was
actually
fulfilled
through
creation
gardens
on
the
way.
It's
doing
so.
F
And
often
you
may
not
even
be
aware,
I
I
was
aware
of
this
because
of
my
involvement
in
this
project,
but
you
may
not
even
be
aware
that
it's
actually
being
processed
through
them.
F
Think
about
challenge
everybody
here
here
on
here.
You
see
these
trucks
all
the
time
on
the
road.
It's
amazing!
How
many
you
know,
I'm
on
the
road
a
lot-
and
I
very
rarely
bother
without
passing
at
least
one
creation
garden
truck
somewhere
and
and
just
use
that
as
a
reminder
that
that
is
that's
a
partner,
moving
kentucky
produce
and
helping
create
a
new
market
for
for
these
producers.
B
A
I
see
none.
Thank
you
so
much
for
your
presentations.
We
have
we're
honored
to
have
the
commissioner
of
agriculture
with
us
ryan
quarles
who's
doing
an
outstanding
job.
Commissioner,
would
you
like
to
address
the
committee?
We
would
be
honored
if
you
would
feel
like
doing
so.
H
Thank
you
chairman,
and
those
joining
us
from
afar.
As
you
can
tell
ryan
quarles,
commissioner
of
agriculture,
as
you
can
tell,
we
have
wonderful
staff,
lots
of
programs
that
are
really
being
utilized.
We
can
do
a
better
job
promoting
it,
but
every
meeting
we
go
to
that
they
have
the
opportunity
to
attend
it.
H
In
fact,
the
last
thing
we
have
to
do
is
move
them
over
to
main
campus
and
we're
in
the
process
of
doing
that.
Right
now,
director
lacefield
talked
about
what
we're
going
to
do
this
afternoon
and
tomorrow
we.
This
is
the
culmination
of
about
four
or
five
months
of
just
review
of.
What's
going
on,
we
have
great
20
years
behind
us.
H
What
about
the
next
20
years,
and
so
this
afternoon
will
be
the
second
time
both
ag
finance
corporation
as
well
as
ag
development
board
gonna
meet
jointly
with
some
great
facilitation
by
k,
card
leaderbots
and
we're
just
gonna
check
the
oil
kick
the
tires
and
just
see
if
there's
things
that
we
can
do
better.
In
fact,
we
put
a
survey
out
to
anyone
that
was
interested
and
over
500
people
responded
back
with
suggestions
or
tips
about
what
we
can
do
better,
and
so
that's
what
we're
going
to
do
this
afternoon.
H
Of
course,
we
appreciate
your
all's
input
on
that
as
well.
One
last
thing:
we
hit
a
hundred
million
dollars
in
our
ag
finance
revolving
loan
fund,
that
that
is
huge.
That
is
huge
and
mr
hunt
sitting
behind
me.
H
I'm
sure
he'll
like
to
say
a
few
words
as
well,
but
but
that's
what
this
program
is
going
to
be
in
perpetuity
that,
regardless
of
what
happens
with
tobacco
settlement
dollars
in
the
future,
we
have
something
that
kentucky's
going
to
have
forever
to
help
out
our
especially
beginning
and
new
farmers,
but
but
everything
agriculture
as
well,
and
so
this
is
a
transformational
transformational
investment.
When
house
bill
611
was
passed.
I
was
a
senior
in
high
school
and
I
remember
one
day
in
our
ffa
class
we
had
to
write
an
essay.
H
What
would
you
do
in
frankfort
with
this
tobacco
settlement
money?
And
I
forget
what
I
wrote,
but
I
think
that,
but
you
all
got
it
right
and
it's
been
great.
It's
been
great.
It's
a
couple
things.
While
sitting,
I
was
able
to
look
up
some
information.
H
H
He
was
in
town,
and
I
think
that
that
not
only
do
we
remind
the
students
to
be
thankful
for
the
reciprocity
agreement,
which
has
been
been
in
place
since
the
harry
truman
administration,
but
we
also
need
to
make
sure
that
those
who
want
to
go
into
large
animal
know
that
they
can
start
having
those
loans
repaid
if
they
qualify
for
this
usda
program
and
that's
something
I
think
that
can
be
better
utilized
as
well
before
they
even
graduate
and
the
last
thing
I've
got.
Is
you
talked
about
this
fulfillment
center?
H
That's
just
an
outgrowth
of
the
kentucky
proud
program
as
well.
You
know
we
have
a
melanie
with
us
today
as
well,
but
but
that
just
shows
you
how
this
program
is
evolving,
we're
trying
to
be
more
consumer
friendly
and
and
and
get
onto
the
splash
pages
and
websites
so
that
we
can
just
continue
to
promote
from
within
by
utilizing
these
funds.
H
So
that
said,
mr
chairman,
thank
you
for
having
us
today
and
I
know
we
have
some
board
members
here
and
not
sure
if
you'd
like
to
introduce
those,
you
already
did
that
earlier,
but
I'm
sure
they
would
like
to
say
a
few
words.
If
you
have
any
questions.
D
D
D
What
did
you
mean
we're
trying
to
write
the
book
of
how
you
distribute
the
money?
You
all
did
a
good
job
of
setting
it
aside
and
telling
us
everything
you
wanted
done,
but
we
didn't
know
exactly
what
you
meant
when
roger
thomas
came
to
head
up
here.
We
had
you
about
10
years
ago,
but
I
think
we
did
the
best
we
could
do
what
this
did.
Was
this
inventory
our
assets?
D
D
D
I
think
if
my
number's
right
on
an
infrastructure
for
livestock
we
can
raise,
we
know
grass,
we
know
genetics,
we've
got
bulls
on
copper
bulbs,
we
know
all
those
kind
of
things,
but
we
do
not
have
was
a
process
and-
and
we
did
a
yeoman's
job
when
we
said,
let's
set
aside
a
million
dollars,
if
we
could
at
least
raise
up
where
you
get
yours
killed,
raise
it
up,
we
only
have
one
company
in
the
state,
then
that
could
even
sell
to
krogers
that
processed
anything.
We
only
have
two
today
or
three
today.
D
Maybe
that
map
tells
you
a
lot
I
think,
but
at
1
million
turned
into
6
million.
The
governor's
gave
us
2
million
of
the
cares
money
and
we
put
4
million
of
our
money
in
it
grew
grew.
We
just
missed
an
opportunity
to
have
a
processing
facility,
but
I
want
to
tell
you
this.
I
don't
think
anybody
did
anything
wrong.
D
It's
the
structure
we
operate
in
today,
I'm
not
on
economic
development.
You
know,
I'm
not
only
my
economic
development
home.
I
didn't
even
know
that
project
was
in
the
state
until
it'd
been
here
three
or
four
times,
I'm
pretty
strong
in
my
area.
It
was
in
my
area,
the
guy.
I
go
to
church
with
head
it
up,
but
I
would
say
this
if
we
don't
change
a
few
things
where
agriculture's
concerned.
If
another
one
came
to
town
today,
we
wouldn't
get
it
either.
D
Representative
dobson
didn't
know
anything
about
it.
He
didn't
even
know
the
name
of
the
company
until
they
were
in
meeting
four
been
here,
I'm
a
radical.
I
went
around
all
the
consultants.
I
got
to
be
pretty
close
to
the
number
two
guy.
I
actually
said
at
the
meeting
when
he
came
to
town.
Nobody
much
was
there
from
number
one
guy
he's
73
and
I'm
78.
We
got
along
well,
I
built
relationships,
but
too
late
it
was
too
late.
D
I'm
we're
going
to
have
a
two-day
meeting
and
somewhere
I'll
have
a
few
words
to
say
in
that
representative
king,
I
met
your
husband.
I
had
six
days
six
six
hours
of
the
head
cattle
people's
buyers
to
show
them
the
livestock
interest
in
kentucky.
How
we
do
that,
I
didn't
drive
a
hundred
miles,
we're
not
known
for
that
for
the
for
the
number
of
livestock
we
got
some.
D
I
learned
that
one
time
christian
county
might
have
been
the
crossroads
for
the
stockyards,
I'm
not
sure,
but
I
really
think
we
need
some
kind
of
representation
just
for
agriculture.
Maybe
every
industry
is
not
the
same.
You've
got
if
you're
going
to
develop
something
in
agriculture.
You've
got
to
grow,
it
you've
got
to.
Let
them
know
you've
got
to
let
them
talk
about
it.
I
honestly
think
I
don't
even
know
where
the
christian
county
is
where
that
plague
needed
to
be,
but
I
honestly
think
if
we
had
an
opportunity,
we
could
have
took
it
somewhere.
D
It
belonged,
it
was
a
kentucky
dream.
I've
sat
around
these
tables
for
30
years,
never
been
able
to
get
that
close
to
one,
and
this
one
was
different.
We
didn't
even
I
don't.
A
single
person
in
this
state
today
knew
what
they
was
going
to
build
and
I
wouldn't
have
either
if
he
hadn't.
I
got
representative
doss
at
a
meeting
with
the
head
guy
said.
Look
at
least
you
all
know.
D
The
last
day,
your
husband,
I
met
your
husband
representing
king
that
day
when
he
came
down
that
one
day
I
did
tell
me,
no
state
had
ever
done
that
put
that
kind
of
people
in
one
room
east
to
west.
We
put
them
in
one
room
met
with
the
head
buyers.
They
had
relationships
in
kentucky
already,
but
it's
our
mistake,
though,
because
we
couldn't
play
our
eighth,
I'm
not
a
car
players
in
well.
But
when
you
sit
at
the
table
you
hold
all
aces
and
you
can't
play
them.
D
I'm
on
the
egg
development
board.
We
spent
160
something
million.
You
bet
your
boots,
they
knew
it
before
they
left.
I
sat
down
and
told
them
look:
here's
where
we
are
here's
what
we
could
do,
but
in
the
economic
development?
That's
not
how
you
that
big
companies,
you
got
everything
secret,
you
can't
know-
and
you
can't
our
community
didn't
even
know
the
name
of
the
company
until
the
last
day
or
two
period.
D
D
Can
you
imagine
what
your
community
would
have
done?
If
that's
what
your
community
got
read
that
day,
no
different,
no
different,
I
am
for
I'm
just
me,
I'm
saying
somewhere
up
here.
We
need
a
group
that
says
when
they
cannot
develop.
Gonna
have
anything
to
do
with
agriculture,
one
or
two
or
three
representatives
need
to
be
honored.
You
all
need
to
be.
We
need
to
have
our
input
and
decide.
I
asked
this
company
particularly
for
a
opportunity.
G
I
can't
I'd
be
remiss
not
to
follow
up
on
that,
because
this
man's
given
a
whole
lot
of
time,
effort,
love
and
energy
to
agriculture
in
kentucky
and
and
to
me
he's
an
icon
in
the
industry,
and
I
I
value
his
opinion
and
I
think
we,
a
lot
of
people
missed
an
opportunity
not
including
wayne
hunt
in
this,
along
with
commissioner
quarles
and
maybe
even
me,
since
they
might
have
been
up
in
my
neck
of
the
woods
too.
G
But
I
I'm
I'm
devastated
over
this
lost
opportunity,
and-
and
I
don't
you
know
again-
representative
king's
husband's-
I'm
gonna
be
president
of
the
cattlemen's.
I've
discussed
it
with
him
and
economic
development's
gonna
hear
from
me.
I've
been
doing
this
a
long
time
and
even
when
I
was
writing
the
budget
in
the
house
years
ago,
we
couldn't
get
the
information
we
needed
from
economic
development.
Then
this
is
a
systemic
problem.
G
G
You
know
I'm
an
officer
of
the
court,
I'm
not
going
to
breach
and
and
an
nba
it's
it's
it's
unconscionable
to
me
that
we
don't
have
the
opportunity
to
participate
on
a
level,
because
I
mean
we're
we're
usually
coming
up
with
money
for
incentive
packages
in
some
form.
We
are
the
appropriators
in
this
in
this
branch
of
government
and
we
take
it
very
serious,
but
we
are
the
appropriators
money.
G
So
if
we're
appropriating
money,
we
need
to
know
what's
going
on
at
some
point
it-
and
that
brings
me
to
something
I
talked
about
in
committee-
and
a
lot
of
you
have
heard
me
talk
about
it
for
20
years,
but
the
misinformation
campaigns
that
are
run
can
have
many
tentacles
and
a
lot
of
them
go
back
to
the
humane
society
of
the
united
states
to
peta
to
entities
that
do
not
like
animal
agriculture.
G
Do
not
want
it
to
flourish,
don't
want
our
farmers
to
to
to
not
to
produce,
want
us
not
to
produce
or
me
to
ride
a
horse
or
use
a
horse
or
own
a
horse
or
an
animal.
That's
how
extreme
these
folks
are.
These
are
the
measures
that
they
will
go
to
to
thwart
these
projects
and
sometimes
you've
got
to
have
pretty
thin
skin
to
withstand
it.
G
I
don't
you
know,
I've
got
thick
skin,
I
can
handle
it.
I've
handled
them
for
years.
I
don't
care,
but
these
are
things
that
considerations
that
we've
got
to
be
talking
about
and
we've
got
to
prevent
and
if
economic
development
doesn't
understand
this,
whether
it's
an
equine
industry,
you
know
which
are
livestock
now,
thanks
to
my
bill,
but
you
know
it's
a
any
animal
enterprise
are
gonna.
Have
these
campaigns
run
against
them,
the
media?
G
It's
affected
the
state
bottom
line
and
it's
affected
our
food
supply
chain
and
it
might
put
a
couple
producers
out
of
business
and
that's
what
they
want.
So
I'm
going
to
get
off
my
soap
box
now,
but
we've
got
to
do
better
in
education
and
knowledge,
even
of
our
own
people
that
are
making
decisions.
G
Sometimes-
and
you
know
I've
had
this
I've
had
this
talk
with
auburn
university
on
on
training,
our
veterinarians,
because
you
know
the
hsus
and
peter
don't
want
large
animal
veterinarians,
they
want
to
make
you
know
and
they
we've
got
to
start
with
curriculum.
We've
got
to
do
better
folks,
because
this
it's
coming
to
a
head,
and
if
we
we're
you
know,
we've
got
to
start
being
a
little
more
proactive
out
there,
but
long
story.
Short
economic
developments
has
got
to
have
a
component
for
agriculture,
I'm
in
total
agreement
with
that.
G
D
I
appreciate
you,
I'm
not
I'm
going
to
be
sure.
I
don't
leave
you,
I'm
not
knocking
anybody.
I
think
it's
a
system,
but
everything
every
every
good
thing
has
an
end.
We
may
learn
something
of
how
to
do
because
this
place
had
a
place
in
kentucky
and
they
somewhere.
I
don't
even
know
where
it
is,
but
somewhere
it
really
should
have
come
from
the
state
and
the
state
said:
where
do
you
want
to
be
and
sell
that
community
before
you
get
there,
because
this
young
man
made
a
statement?
D
D
They
had
facebook,
they
had
all
those
kind
of
things
and
it
was
close
to
a
pretty
large
fantasy
subdivision,
but
it
still
was
somewhere
in
here
it
fit,
but
it
was
an
answer
to
a
kentucky
dream.
I
just
think
some
kind
of
system
said
we
don't
show
you
the
state.
You
tell
us
where
you
want
to
be.
You
tell
us
what
it
is
that
we
can
go
and
get
enough
behind
you
until
an
economic
development
says
how
much
money
I
talked
to
some
legislators.
D
How
much
money
would
you
put
in
this
company
if
you
could,
if
they
were
satisfied
to
come
here
and
picked
out
their
place
and
it
suited
because
it
was
the
last
straw
for
me.
I
think
I
would
to
finish
up
what
we've
tried
to
do
with
this
money,
and
then
I
think
I
think
we'll
have
another
chance.
He
this
young
man.
If
he
does,
I
don't
know
whether
I
got
close
enough
to
him.
I
was
in
dallas
texas.
D
I
called
him
in
the
morning
and
made
the
decision,
but
he
said-
and
I
did
I'd
say
one
more
thing.
Somebody
got
together
up
here
and
said:
we
owe
this
company
an
apology,
the
state
does
and
off
the
fly
anybody
want
to
go
to
it.
I
called
him
said
they'll
do
that
and
he
said:
don't
he
do
that
we're
only
going
to
be
four
hours
away
when
kentucky
can
be
a
part
of
this
thing.
This
is
not
the
last
one
we're
going
to
build
more
than
likely.
D
He
said
I
will
come
over.
There.
Give
me
three
or
four
weeks
I'll
come
over
and
have
some
meetings
with
you.
I
hope
he
does.
I
don't
know
I
bothered
him
enough,
but
I
had
a.
I
didn't
break
any
laws.
I
didn't
sign
any
papers,
I
honored
him.
I
was
in
the
room
and
he
said,
but
finally
I
said
it's
like
being
in
a
car
game.
You
can't
play
yasu's
and
the
young
men
said
I
got
a
deck
of
cards.
Tell
me
how
to
play
them.
D
I
just
couldn't
do
it.
I
appreciate
what
you
do
this
statement
on
the
bottom
here
for
ag
development
has
drove
me.
This
was
our
original
statement.
I
don't
know
whether
you've
got
to
copy
this
book
or
not,
but
you
ought
to
have
one
because
this
is
what
we
saw
in
kentucky
in
2000
and
I
think
we've
touched
almost
every
part
of
it.
I
appreciate
what
you
all
do.
B
Thank
you
for
your
indulgence,
mr
chair.
I
just
wanted
to
say
please
be
of
good
courage,
please
be
of
good
courage.
Don't
give
up.
We
appreciate
your
your
strong
efforts
on
this
project.
We
know
your
heart,
we
know
your
motivation
and
it's
not
going
to
be
wasted.
It's
going
to
make
it's
going
to
make
good
things.
I
appreciate
your
forethought
in
your
21
years,
maybe
even
plus,
of
service
on
this
important
board,
and
I
I
think,
you're
going
to
have
good
changes.
