Support for this event is provided by the Association of Public and Land-Grant Universities' Academic Programs Section of the Board on Agriculture Assembly. APS works to assure that the development of human capital in agriculture, food, natural resources, and related areas is a preeminent concern of the Land-grant and state university system and its federal partners. APS accomplishes this by providing academic instruction and other programs that prepare society-ready graduates with the skills and competencies necessary to sustain and enhance the food, agriculture, and natural resource and life science systems needed by professionals and the society.
