Welcome to Ag365!
This new initiative from @KyStateU, announced on National Agriculture Day, highlights the role that Kentucky State plays in Kentucky agriculture.
"Ag365 will shine light on the excellent work that occurs here at Kentucky State University," said Dr. Bernard.
For the next year...well, we'll keep doing what we've been doing! We hope you'll join us in our Research, Academics, and Extension endeavors, and of course we are always looking for new ways to serve our commonwealth. We're here for you, every single day.

Let's meet our guest: Cora Teets is a Research Associate and is a graduate of Kentucky State University. She manages the Cancer and Nutrition Research Lab, which studies cancer cell growth and experiments with natural compounds to find natural solutions to tumor progression.
Lend us your ears—for a brand new podcast!
In each episode of Cultivate, host Elias Conwell speaks to a fellow Kentucky State employee to learn more about their program area or topic of interest.
The first episode drops tomorrow!
In preparation, learn more about our host:
Elias Conwell has been part of the Land Grant media team since October 2022. Because he didn't have a background in agriculture, he's enjoyed learning more through his job responsibilities—and now through the podcast!
Happy Thursday!
