Initiatives
Building on our land grant mission from the Vice President’s Office
Our initiatives were developed by recognizing where progress is needed most and taking action to lead the way. These efforts go above and beyond to create new pathways to strengthen our state, empower our faculty and tackle challenges that extend far beyond Mississippi’s borders.
Vision 2030
A collaborative roadmap for the future of agriculture and forestry in Mississippi, Vision 2030 aligns research, resources and efforts from the public and private sectors to drive progress in our state.
Food & Agriculture as Competitive Statecraft
We’re fostering collaboration among agricultural experts, policymakers, and national defense agencies to develop strategies that secure the future of food production, supply chains and national security.
