WELCOME

Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences BUT we are so much more! “The Mission of UF/IFAS is to develop knowledge in agricultural, human and natural resources and to make that knowledge accessible to sustain and enhance the quality of human life.”

While the University traces its roots to 1853 and the establishment of the state-funded East Florida Seminary, UF/IFAS traces its roots to the Morrill Act of 1862, which established the land-grant university system. On July 2, 1862, President Abraham Lincoln signed into law what is generally referred to as the Land-Grant Act. The new piece of legislation, which was introduced by U.S. Representative Justin Smith Morrill of Vermont, granted each state 30,000 acres of public land for each senator and representative under apportionment based on the 1860 census. Proceeds from the sale of these lands were to be invested in a perpetual endowment fund that would provide support for colleges of agriculture and mechanical arts in each of the states. The establishment of Florida Agricultural College at Lake City in 1884 under the Morrill Act marked the beginning of what became the College of Agriculture of the University of Florida in 1906.

UF/IFAS was created in 1964 to consolidate the agricultural, natural resources, and life sciences teaching, research and extension programs at the University of Florida. UF/IFAS is a federal-state-county partnership throughout Florida.

Teaching • The College of Agricultural and Life Sciences • The School of Natural Resources and Environment • Portions of the College of Veterinary Medicine Research • The Florida Agricultural Experiment Station supports research programs at 12 regional Research and Education Centers. • Providing research support at 4 Research and Demonstration sites (farms), 1 research forest, and 1 biological field station Extension • The UF/IFAS Extension has at least one office in every county. • Funded by state, federal and local county dollars
