The Southern Region of the U.S. has abundant opportunities as well as some enduring challenges in ensuring a safe and profitable food system, community and individual economic vitality and a healthy citizenry. The 2025 Southern Region Mini Land-Grant Meeting brings together leaders from eight groups from both 1862 and 1890 Land-Grant universities to explore avenues for improving the roles of each group and Land-Grant functions as a whole.
We’ve been conducting Land-Grant work for more than a century and we’re far from finished in our mission to improve lives.
On June 9-12, 2025, the Southern Region Mini Land-Grant Meeting will be held in Fayetteville, Arkansas, hosted by the University of Arkansas System Division of Agriculture. Eight groups from 1862 and 1890 Land-grant universities will converge to discuss challenges and opportunities.
Our emphases for this meeting are:
- Faculty Hiring and Retention
