Governor Andy Beshear is promoting the commonwealth’s agriculture industry at the Kentucky State Fair that opened Thursday.
He says Kentucky has become the “capitol of agriculture technology” in the country and believes the industry is strong as a whole.
While the state fair is an occasion to celebrate Kentucky, the governor says the state will not forget about victims of devastating flooding in eastern Kentucky and assistance must continue to go to the victims.
The Kentucky State Fair in Louisville continues through August 28.
