On Friday, Jan. 9, tobacco producers of Western Kentucky will have a unique opportunity to attend the 2009 Western Kentucky Tobacco Expo. The purpose of the Western Kentucky Tobacco Expo is to emphasize tobacco production through trade show exhibits and production seminars. The Expo will be an excellent opportunity to meet and talk with vendors from the tobacco farm products industry in an informal atmosphere. We are hoping for a good crowd this year and that you will join us to learn the latest tobacco production and economic information. The trade-show will consist of approximately 45 booth spaces in the Curris Center Ballroom. There will be vendors from all aspects of the tobacco industry represented at the trade show so there will be something of interest for everyone attending. The seminars throughout the day will cover topics such as production techniques, disease pressure, economics, emerging varieties, and the H2A Labor Program. For all of those in need of CEU Credits these will also be available during the seminars. Enditem
