You are right about Kentucky- at least last year and I haven't seen anything different. When
I asked the head man in the state why?, his response was that it was an unproven system. 'Course Paul and I have only been growing year round using high tunnels for 16 years...in his state...have spoken about it in numerous conferences, have written a book....unproven...
I offered for us to come and speak with him and his staff about the advantages high tunnels give a produce farmer and he never took me up on it. I would guess NRCS in Kentucky has projects it wants to spend its money on that have a higher profile with more
influential people. Or maybe they just aren't interested in projects for vegetable growers. I told him he should be ashamed of himself, but I guess he isn't.
