RESEARC H

To His Excellency, The Honorable Steven L. Beshear Governor of Kentucky

I herewith submit the one hundred and twenty-first annual report of the Kentucky Agricultural Experiment Station for the period ending December 31, 2008. This is done in accordance with an act of Congress, approved March 2, 1887, titled “An act to establish Agricultural Experiment Stations, in connection with the Agricultural Colleges established in the several states under the provisions of an act approved July 2, 1862, and under the acts supplementary thereto,” and also the act of the Kentucky State Legislature, approved February 20, 1888, accepting the provisions of the act of Congress.

Very respectfully,

Nancy M. Cox, Associate Dean for Research Director, Agricultural Experiment Station Lexington, Kentucky June 30, 2009

Statewide Research

Research activities of the Kentucky Agricultural Experiment Station were conducted at Lexington, Princeton, Quicksand, and Owenton and in counties throughout the state in 2008. Efforts are constantly made to ensure that the research studies have application to the problems of all Kentucky farmers and other clientele groups. Locations of the experimental facili- ties provide conditions representative of most sections of the state.
