The Kentucky Agricultural Finance Corporation announced the approval of 2-point-3 million dollars in low-interest loans Friday. Among the biggest winners was Wayne County, with 250-thousand dollars for the county’s Beginning Farmer Loan Program. Glen Roberts, with the Wayne County Agricultural Extension Office, said the money will likely help new farmers get into the poultry business.
“It's quite expensive to get into that and helps the young folks beginning farmers we call them young but they're relatively young get into farming in a sustainable way.”
