FRANKFORT, KY (Feb. 26, 2009)- The Governor’s Office of Agricultural Policy (GOAP) will hold eleven Kentucky Agricultural Development Fund (KADF) Regional Workshops in April and May across the Commonwealth.

 

The GOAP staff will discuss, in detail, any new policy changes as well as changes concerning KADF programs and how they apply to the administrators, extension agents, and county council members. The Regional Workshops are also designed to be an interactive learning session that will help KADF administrators with reporting requirements.  

 

“These Regional Workshops are critical in communicating the new policy and program changes to the agricultural community,” said Roger Thomas, Executive Director of the GOAP. “They have proven to be extremely beneficial in the past and I am strongly encouraging everyone interested in learning about these changes to attend.”
