Purpose of Extension
As the land-grant university in Nebraska, UNL serves Nebraskans through research, education, and Extension. Nebraska Extension works with the University system to identify individual and community needs, collaborate and learn from their research, and bring expertise in 8 program areas to all Nebraskans. We strive to connect with all the state's 93 counties. Nebraskans turn to Nebraska Extension to strengthen their families, inspire their communities, empower young people, conserve and protect natural resourses and advance their farms, ranches and buisnesses.
