Located adjacent to the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign campus,
the mission of the 1,000 acre Crop Sciences Research and Education Center
(CSREC) is to provide land, equipment, and facilities for plant/soil research
through a field laboratory setting. CSREC assists scientists and extension
personnel by providing a central place to plan, coordinate, and conduct field
research. On-campus teaching is supported by providing field laboratory facilities
for graduate students, as well as educating undergraduates through work and
field-trip experiences. Extension and international agricultural efforts
are strengthened by organized field days such as Agronomy Day, special tours,
and training sessions to meet the needs of the agricultural community.
