Universities and research programs.
This is a young shelf and it will grow. The standard for a card here is simple: does the program hand a working grower something usable for free? Programs that do are worth knowing by name, because their new work tends to show up first on their own pages.
This is one shelf of The Agriculture Resource Library, 6 entries strong. Search every shelf at once in the card catalog, or suggest a resource we missed.

Frequently asked questions.
Which universities do controlled environment agriculture research?
A handful of programs anchor the field, running dedicated greenhouse and indoor-growing research centers whose crop guides, environmental setpoints, and lighting research flow straight into commercial practice. The cards on this shelf name them and say what each one publishes that a grower can use directly.
How do I get university research help for my own farm?
The front door is Cooperative Extension: every land-grant university runs it, and your county agent can pull in campus specialists for free. Beyond that, many programs on this shelf run grower trials and answer practitioner questions directly. Our state-by-state page lists your Extension service; this shelf lists the research programs behind it.
