Cornell AES manages nine research farms and 127,000 square feet of greenhouse space on Ithaca’s campus and across New York state. While these facilities are designed to support research, they are also used as unique teaching tools for two dozen courses covering topics in plant science, soil science, entomology, food systems, agricultural machinery, and more. This is the third story in a series about on-farm teaching.
