We can’t thank @SecRollins enough for choosing Kentucky as her first stop on the job! 🇺🇸 From the National Farm Machinery Show to Gallrein Farms, it was a fantastic two days showcasing the best of Kentucky agriculture. We can’t wait to have you back in the Commonwealth!
We were honored to host newly confirmed U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins during her visit to KY. We appreciate her commitment to the industry and look forward to her leadership in advancing ag nationwide.

@KYAgCommish when we tell him it’s the last day of @KYNFMS.
Come on out to @kyexpocenter to walk amongst the latest cutting edge equipment, products, and services that helps producers farm and get your mental and physical health screenings done in West Hall!
I’m like a kid in a candy store at the @KYNFMS except I can’t afford any of this candy. 🚜 – at Versailles, KY
Who doesn’t love to see massive shiny farm equipment? 🚜 The largest farm machinery show kicks off this week! Be sure to stop by! – at Versailles, KY
Join us this week at the @KYNFMS from Feb. 14-17. I look forward to seeing you and your family there.
Nothing but hits. Don’t mind me while I’ll be listening to nothing but Usher for the next two weeks. #SuperBowl – at Versailles, KY
I’m fortunate to have represented @kentuckyag in Washington DC for the @NASDAnews Winter Policy Conference bringing together agricultural leaders from all across the nation to deliberate and take action for the best interests of America’s farm families. #UnitedWeThrive – at Versailles, KY

Today, Kentucky Chamber President and CEO @AshliWatts, Senior Vice President of Public Affairs @KateShanksKY, and Manager of Public Affairs @Jhughes_ky met with @KYAgCommish Jonathan Shell to discuss priorities to advance the Commonwealth's agriculture industry!
Anytime with wine is simply de-vine! Busy Friday at the office photographing the best Kentucky wines awarded of 2023! 🍷📸
#KentuckyBacon! Americans consume on average 18 pounds of bacon per year! I can almost guarantee my annual consumption is double that but, who’s counting?
🥓🤤🥓😋🥓 – at Versailles, KY
.@TysonFoods is making investments that will have major impacts on the Kentucky agriculture industry. Yesterday, I participated in the ribbon cutting and tour at their newest bacon processing facility in Bowling Green. #kentuckylovesbacon
Excellent move for #KentuckyAg. Serving as a Representative and Vice Chair of the House Appropriations and Revenue Committee, along with being a lifelong farmer, Reed will serve Kentucky farm families well while leading the charge in economic development through KOAP. 👏🏽 – at Versailles, KY
“I am truly blessed and excited to join @KYAgCommish and the KDA as the new Director of Kentucky Office of Agricultural Policy. For two decades, KOAP has developed a culture of helping farmers diversify their operations to provide food, fiber, and shelter for us all. Commissioner Shell’s passion for agriculture is second to none, and I’m honored to be a part of this great legacy of living to serve.” - @BrandonReed4KY bit.ly/47DHGCJ

JUST IN: @MissAmericaKY was tasked with speaking :30 sec on nutrition at the Miss America 2024 Competition and chose to use that time to talk about Kentucky agriculture, the Kentucky Proud program, and discussing the importance of agriculture and it’s role in overall nutrition! Thank you, Miss Kentucky!
Remember, supporting local is easy as 1-2-3.
1 - Send your local cattleman or woman a message saying “whatcha got?” 👨🏽🌾
2 - Head to the farm or meet halfway and fill up the cooler. 🥩
3 - Come home and restock the freezer with the goods. 👍🏼 – at Versailles, KY

I'm proud to ring in the new year and be sworn in as Kentucky's 36th Commissioner of Agriculture.
I'm honored by the opportunity to serve our state as Ag Commissioner and I'm ready to get to work fighting for our farm families and our Kentucky values. bit.ly/3H4queC
