University of Kentucky Martin-Gatton College of Agriculture, Food and Environment

The University of Kentucky Martin-Gatton College of Agriculture, Food and Environment was founded as, and remains, a land-grant institution, committed to improving the quality of life for Kentuckians. Our threefold land-grant missions - teaching, research and extension - serve the Commonwealth in different ways: ▫️We give students the skills to solve problems. ▫️We discover and deliver new knowledge and technologies through research and extension. ▫️We are part of a national system that maintains a statewide presence and links local, state, and global issues. Agriculture, food, and environmental systems are key pillars of Kentucky's economic future, and the college is playing a prominent role in those areas with its programs. Together, lets "grow ideas" and change the world! 🚜🌱🐴🐂😼💦🌾🫶🪴🫛🌻🌽
