The Land Grant University We Need Today: Bridging the Divide Between Academia and Farmers

Join the Soil and Water Conservation Society for the most attended presentation from SWCS’s SOLD OUT 2026 International Annual Conference, “The Land Grant University We Need Today: Bridging the Divide and Harmonizing Academia and Farmers.”

Opportunities for farmers to benefit from land-grant university research and support are expansive and urgently needed, but transformation is necessary.

SWCS CEO Clare Lindahl will sit down with Linda Prokopy of the University of Vermont and Abe Collins of Land Care Cooperative and LandWEB to thoughtfully explore how land-grant university research and extension can better address contemporary agricultural challenges as trusted farmer partners.
