Cooperative Extension

Today's Cooperative Extension is many things to many people throughout Arizona. We're educators helping establish youth and adult partnerships in community development. We're researchers working with farmers to control insects such as bark beetle. We're liaisons to rural communities planning for economic growth. We're volunteers reaching out to youth in our local area. We're master volunteers helping ranchers make the best possible use of Arizona's precious natural resources. We're consumer advisors helping families learn parenting skills.
Arizona Cooperative Extension works as a partnership between the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the University of Arizona College of Agriculture and people all over the state. With offices in all 15 Arizona counties, we bring scientific knowledge to people everyday to enhance their work and enrich their lives.
