Impact
To keep Georgia agriculture on the leading edge of the industry, UGA develops new agricultural research for professors to teach in the classroom and for Extension agents to deliver across the state. Take a look at how the College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences develops programs and innovations to improve people's lives and get results.
