Project by Fleming County Student Featured in Kentucky Farm Bureau's "Science in Agriculture" Displays
Louisville, KY (November 30, 2017) – Fleming County student, Laney Pease, was among the 12 students selected from across the state to display their agriculture science projects at this week’s Kentucky Farm Bureau (KFB) annual meeting in Louisville.
Laney displayed her science project as part of the KFB annual meeting’s tradeshow. Her project explored the effects of soil nutrition on plant growth.
She was awarded $125.00 and a certificate of recognition for her participation at the state level.
The Science in Agriculture program was developed by KFB as a way to encourage teachers to incorporate agricultural themes into their classroom instruction. Projects are evaluated on categories such as creativity, skill, clarity and thoroughness, agricultural accuracy, and scientific thought.
Kentucky Farm Bureau, with over 478,000 member families statewide, is the state’s largest general farm organization. Approximately 2,000 members attended KFB’s 98th annual meeting in Louisville, November 29 – December 2, to recognize this year’s individual and organizational achievements and adopt policy for 2018.

Last month, to be more specific, on August 19, World Photography Day was celebrated, well, throughout the world, I suppose. I became familiar with the day thanks to some of my co-workers who wanted to put together a post about me, showcasing some of the photos I have taken over the years.

Many times, I am asked what I love most about my job here at Kentucky Farm Bureau, and honestly, the answer is simple: the people. Often, the assumption is that I am talking about our Kentucky farmers. And for the most part that is true. Hey, I’m one of you.
