2023 MADISON COUNTY BEEF DAY
There’s no better time to celebrate the American beef industry than in May, National Beef Month. Did you know that Madison County is the second largest beef- producing county in Kentucky?
On May 24, Ag Credit saluted the area’s farmers, ranchers and the beef cattle they provide with a drop in at our Richmond office. We partnered with Madison County Farm Bureau, Madison County Cattlemen’s, Madison County Cooperative Extension Services, Bluegrass Stockyards of Richmond and the Kentucky Beef Council to host the 4th annual Madison County Beef Day.

Almost 800 burger meals were distributed to members of the community within just an hour and a half. The event also served as an opportunity to connect cattle producers and consumers in Madison County.
The United States remains the world’s largest producer in 2023. The beef industry involves thousands of American farmers, ranchers and processors who help keep our economy strong and put food on our tables.
