Cooperative Extension Services

Cooperative Extension Services are educational programs associated with land-grant universities in the United States. They aim to provide practical knowledge and resources to the public, focusing on agriculture, nutrition, community development, and environmental stewardship. By connecting research-based information with local needs, these services help farmers improve crop yields, educate families about healthy eating, and support community initiatives. Funded by federal, state, and local governments, Cooperative Extensions promote knowledge sharing and skill-building to enhance the well-being and productivity of communities across the country.
