If you’re in the beef cattle business, plan to be here!
Join us for an evening with Kenny Burdine, Extension Professor in livestock economics, University of Kentucky.
Going into 2025 beef cattle prices are at record highs! Can it continue? How long will the consumer continue to support these price levels? Is it too late to consider expansion?
Join us in the Fairfield County Ag Center in Lancaster as we spend an evening exploring the economics of the beef cattle and livestock sector with Kenny Burdine.
Kenny grew up in Jessamine County, KY where his family produced tobacco and raised cattle and sheep. He received his B.S. in Agricultural Economics in December of 1999 , and began working as an Extension Associate in the Department of Agricultural Economics at UK. He pursued his graduate degrees on a part-time basis completing his M.S. in 2003 and Ph.D. in 2011. Kenny joined the UK Agricultural Economics faculty in 2012 and is currently an Extension Professor in livestock economics.
Burdine focuses his extension program in the areas of livestock marketing, price risk management, and general profitability. He travels extensively and delivers 40-60 programs each year directly for livestock producers. His applied research interests are primarily focused on marketing and decision-making for beef, dairy, and forage producers. Kenny also teaches a livestock marketing class on campus.
Don’t miss this opportunity to listen in beginning at 6:30 p.m. on January 29th as we are privileged to be hosting Kenny Burdine as he discusses his views on the economic future of the beef cattle industry.
