ANR News Releases

For the 2027 season, the Farm Robotics Challenge features a new three-division structure, a Startup pathway and more than $200,000 in prizes and startup support.

Valley Vision, UC ANR, Sierra College and regional partners have collectively received $7.3 million through the California Jobs First Regional Investment Initiative to launch the Capital Biomanufacturing Alliance.

This long-running course will provide guidance and tools for navigating new federal restrictions on non-American drone purchases.

UC ANR has added scientists to focus on oak woodlands, coastal water resilience, irrigation efficiency, weeds, livestock, agricultural waste management and bioenergy production, land equity, small farms, organic production, and greenhouse and controlled environment agriculture.

The FarmVet2B program, led by UC Davis Weill School of Veterinary Medicine and UC Cooperative Extension scientists, gives students a hands-on experience.
