24 Publications cooperators to identify critical and emerging needs
in agricultural, natural, and human resources, and
with campus partners to develop research-based
approaches to solve local problems.
CE specialists are integrated into academic departments
at UC Berkeley, UC Davis, and UC Riverside, where they
conduct research and develop new technologies. CE
specialists work to connect local CE advisors to the
campus-based Agriculture Experiment Stations and
other resources that may provide appropriate research
and new technologies to address a myriad of issues
and needs throughout California.
University of California Cooperative Extension (UCCE)
takes information developed on its campuses and
research centers and makes it available to local
communities. In addition, Cooperative Extension
experts conduct applied research of their own to
address local problems in the areas of the environment,
water, exotic and invasive pests, gardening, agriculture,
good nutrition, and youth development.
