KFB Spotlight

President's Column | Ham, Heart, and Heritage, a Good Way to Describe KFB this Time of Year
September 5, 2025: I’m a firm believer in the good our organization does for this state and our agriculture industry every day of the year. I say it because I believe in it, I have lived it, and I see the fruits of our labor from the front porches of our farmhouses to the Capitol steps in Washington, D.C.

Tradition Meets Generosity | Kentucky Farm Bureau's Ham Breakfast Raises $10M at State Fair
September 5, 2025: The 61st Annual Kentucky Farm Bureau (KFB) Country Ham Breakfast and Charity Auction at the Kentucky State Fair brought in a combined winning bid of $10 million in support of Kentucky charities, continuing the longstanding tradition of generosity that has made this event one of the commonwealth’s most anticipated gatherings.

Kentucky Tobacco, Still a Tradition for Growers
September 5, 2025: In 1994, Kentucky tobacco producers grew 187,000 acres of tobacco, weighing in at over 453 million pounds and worth nearly $841 billion. That was 10 years before the Fair and Equitable Tobacco Reform Act eliminated an antiquated tobacco quota system that had been in place since 1938.
