TEXAS A&M AGRILIFE EXTENSION SERVICE

is a unique education agency with a statewide network of professional educators,
trained volunteers, and county offices. It reaches into every Texas county to
address local priority needs. Some of our major efforts are in mitigating
drought impacts; conserving water use in homes, landscapes, and production
agriculture; improving emergency management; enhancing food security; and
protecting human health through education about diet, exercise, and disease
prevention and management.

AgriLife Extension demonstrates the latest technology and best practices to
improve the state’s food and fiber system, which serves all Texas consumers and
contributes nine percent of the gross domestic product. Texas 4-H, our primary
youth program, engages some 600,000 youth every year in learning projects,
leadership development, and community service.

Collaborative programs enable extension educators and their partners to extend
resources and prevent duplication of services. In total, extension personnel
and extension-trained volunteers achieved nearly 23 million direct teaching
contacts, including distance education via the Web, in fiscal year 2015.


VISION:

 * Help Texans better their lives


MISSION:

 * Through the application of science-based knowledge, we create high-quality,
   relevant continuing education that encourages lasting and effective change


CAPABILITIES:

 * We provide programs, tools, and resources —local and statewide — that teach
   people how to improve agriculture and food production, advance health
   practices, protect the environment, strengthen our communities, and enrich
   youth.
