The Center for Agriculture, Food and the Environment at the University of Massachusetts Amherst integrates research and outreach education in agriculture, food systems and the environment. The Center is the contemporary standard bearer of the university’s land-grant origins. It provides linkages from the University with vibrant business, policy and public interest sectors in the state, including agriculture, the horticultural 'green industries,' environmental decision makers and food system interests. The Center advances academic research and practical solutions to issues and problems that impact the well-being of people, communities, farms, businesses, and natural systems. Building on a tradition of leadership and support for Massachusetts’ agriculture, the Center’s flexible portfolio of projects, programs and initiatives seeks to support original scientific discovery and promote academic scholarship and its application and dissemination for broad public benefit. The Center is the home of UMass Extension, the Massachusetts Agricultural Experiment Station and the Water Resources Research Center. The Center for Agriculture, Food and the Environment is based in the College of Natural Sciences at UMass Amherst and works in partnership with faculty across many academic departments at UMass Amherst.
