Our faculty and staff put knowledge and research to work for producers and processors across New York state and beyond as part of CALS’ Land-Grant mission.

We conduct extension education programs with targeted audiences in a variety of ways, including through community outreach, online courses, field days and in-person events in our state-of-the-art learning facilities.

Whether on campus or off, we translate Cornell AgriTech’s purpose-driven research into real-world practice that helps New York state farm and food businesses, residents and communities.

In 2022-2023, we spent time with producers to assist with a variety of issues, from climate adaption to food safety and more.
