Achieving healthy land, water, and environment through partnerships and engagement
The Penn State Agriculture and Environment Center (AEC) works to solve challenges for agriculture and communities related to water, ecosystems, and the environment. We foster partnerships and integrate the College’s research, education, community outreach, and Extension assets to facilitate collaborative problem solving related to agriculture and the environment at multiple scales. Our work—and that of our partners—seeks to build a better future for all of us.
