(a) A board of county commissioners may cooperate in
extension work in agriculture and home economics in the county

expend any amount the board deems expedient so long as this levy
and all levies for general county government do not exceed the
constitutional mill limit.

the formation of a district for the purposes of subsection (a)

county included in a district is entitled to any benefits of

upon request shall receive a county agent or agricultural expert
to be provided by the agricultural college of the university.
The university shall provide a suitable agent or expert,
qualified to do the work usually expected from a person educated

from any source under the supervision of the agricultural
college for the purposes of this section.
