The agricultural community is strong in the Bluegrass State; Kentucky had 85,000 farms in 2011, according to the Kentucky field office of the National Agricultural Statistics Service. Kentucky farm size averaged 164 acres.
Horses were the leading source of farm income for Kentucky farmers, followed by broilers (chickens), cattle, tobacco, soybeans and corn. Kentucky is home to some of the world's leading thoroughbred farms and thoroughbred auctions as well as prestigious events such as the Kentucky World's Championship Horse Show and the Land Rover Kentucky Three-Day Event at the Kentucky Horse Park.

Kentucky Facts Activity Sheet
Modern archaeologists classify Kentucky's prehistoric past into six cultures that spanned 13,000 BC to 1,650 AD. These cultures were the Paleo-Indian culture, the Archaic culture, the Woodland culture, the Adena culture, the Mississippian culture and the Fort Ancient culture. From about 1650 until the arrival of the first white settlers, Native American wars broke out over control of the "Great Meadow" between the Shawnee tribes from north of the Ohio River and the Cherokee and Chickasaw tribes located south of the Cumberland River. During this time of warfare, no Indian nation held possession of the land that would eventually become Kentucky.Kentucky FACTS - A Free Printable Kentucky Activity Sheet READ MORE ABOUT KENTUCKY HERE

Most experts think that the name Kentucky comes from a Native American language, but they don’t agree on which one. It may have come from the Wyandot name for the area, Kah-ten-tah-teh, which can be roughly translated as “Land of Tomorrow.” It’s also possible that it comes from the Shawnee name for the area, Kain-tuck-ee, which means “At the Head of the River.” Or it may have been derived from the Iroquoian or Mohawk word Kentucke meaning “among the meadows.” READ MORE ABOUT KENTUCKY FROM NAT GEO

Black bears, bobcats, red foxes, minks, and river otters are common Kentucky mammals. Gaze at the sky, and you might see a peregrine falcon, bald eagle, mountain bluebird, Kentucky warbler or northern cardinal (the state bird). Check the ground and trees for reptiles like the six-lined racerunner, broadhead skink, or Eastern corn snake. Amphibians such as the Kentucky spring salamander or the Jefferson salamander hang out near water. READ MORE ABOUT KENTUCKY FROM NAT GEO

Barren County has some of the state's most fertile soil, and was even named rural America's best place to live by Progressive Farmer magazine. (Seriously.)
