About CAFNR

In the land-grant tradition.

The College of Agriculture, Food, and Natural Resources operates in the land-grant tradition — providing teaching, research, and service through its academic, Extension, and research components.

Our mission

Three components, one purpose

Why land-grant matters

From the field to the future

As part of an 1890 land-grant institution, CAFNR exists to translate science for the public — preparing people for a better life, developing partnerships, and connecting communities. For students, that means a degree built on real labs, a real farm, and real impact.

From the field to the market, and everywhere in between, PVAMU builds excellence in the classroom and beyond.
