About Extension ServicesUniversity of Florida Citrus County Extension is a branch of the University of Florida's Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences (IFAS) and the Florida Cooperative Extension Service system. A unique publicly funded educational network that links the resources of the USDA, the land-grant university system and local governments, funds the Citrus County Extension Office. In Florida, the University of Florida administers Cooperative Extension. The Citrus County Board of County Commissioners provides financial support for local faculty, staff and county facilities. The Cooperative Extension System was established by the Smith-Lever Act of 1914. Citrus County Extension connects the public with the University of Florida/IFAS's knowledge, research, and resources to address youth, family, community and agricultural needs. We are part of a nation wide educational network of scientists and educators who help people solve problems and put knowledge to use. We deliver programs needed by people throughout the state. Citrus County Extension has access to the latest research and technology on more than 2,000 subjects of interest. The University's expertise is available to home owners, consumers, youth, home builders, agricultural producers, gardeners, and the general public. |
