Kansas extension program faces sharp trimming amid funding rejection
Nearly 100 year old county extension work in Kansas is at risk as the legislature rejected a $138,000 appropriation. McCain of Kansas State University warned 62 of 105 counties may drop to two agents per county, with 25 more unable to support a third 4 H agent. Counties rely on local levies, federal, and state aid, but budgets vary and some counties have already maxed taxes.
