Barry Alexander, farm manager for Cundiff Farms in Trigg County, showed off many of his conservation and energy-efficient practices. The Secretary was particularly impressed with Alexander’s use of solar panels to power his grain handling system, as well as employee housing and selling excess power back to the grid.
Farmers representing the Kentucky Soybean Board and Association, Kentucky Corn Growers, and the Kentucky Small Grain Growers Association hosted a two-day “show and tell” farm tour for guests from the Kentucky Cabinet for Energy and the Environment this week.
Cabinet Secretary Rebecca Goodman was accompanied by Deputy Secretary John Lyons, Energy Assurance and Efficiency Coordinator Amanda LeMaster, and Executive Advisor Anne Marie Franklin.
