Cooperative Extension is a program that provides research-based information and education to agricultural producers, homeowners, and community members in rural and urban areas. It is typically administered by land grant universities in the United States and aims to improve the quality of life for individuals and communities by offering resources and expertise in areas such as agriculture, nutrition, natural resources, and youth development. Cooperative Extension agents work closely with local communities to address their specific needs and challenges, and offer workshops, publications, and other educational programs to support sustainable practices and overall well-being.
