The Experimental Smart Farm
Established in 2022, the Farm at UC Merced is a 40-acre research facility dedicated to advancing agricultural innovation, sustainability, and education. As an Agricultural Experiment Station (AES), we lead research in automation, climate resilience, and workforce development. Here, we are working hard to create a better future for generations to come.
Farming for the Future
At the Farm, we unite technology, sustainability, and community to create a better food system. Our research blends cutting-edge automation and environmental monitoring. Join us in advancing sustainable farming practices that nurture the land and celebrate our shared food heritage. Together, we can cultivate an inclusive, equitable agricultural future for generations to come, fostering a healthier, more connected world through the power of food and farming.
