Livingston Area MBPP Sessions Successfully Underway

The Master Beef Producer Program in Livingston started on January 26 with 21 paid producers. This number exceeded our highest expectations with preset participation goals for five from Overton County, two each from Clay, Pickett and Jackson Counties.

Livingston Area MBPP ParticipantsThe agents are very excited and the first session went extremely well. We have made lots of notes working with four counties trying to get this up and running as a multi-county effort. Agents in all the counties have been very helpful and supportive and willing to take a active part.

We can already see that this is a great program, notice we did not say good, but Great!

Attendance Distribution:

Overton - 15
