As a cooperative effort between member farms and the University of Kentucky Department of Agricultural Economics, the Kentucky Farm Business Management (KFBM) Program provides a financial records-based information system to assist Kentucky farmers in best utilizing their resources to accomplish their goals and objectives.
Program members receive one-on-one consultations and a broad range of financial planning and analysis services from their regional specialist throughout the year, while the university gains real-world data from operations across the commonwealth to inform and guide efforts and decisions across areas of research, extension and teaching.
Based in several office locations across the state, our program's specialists and staff cover 87 counties divided into four regions - Purchase, Pennyroyal, Ohio Valley and Lincoln Trail.

As an Extension program of the University of Kentucky, the KFBM program's specialists and staff work with member farms to provide financial planning, economic analysis, comparative benchmarking, financial statement generation and more through personal, one-on-one consultations, both in the office and via farm visits.
