Institute of Agriculture and Natural Resources

If you live, eat or work in Nebraska, chances are the University of Nebraska’s Institute of Agriculture and Natural Resources (IANR) has always been a part of your everyday life. It may be through a safer, more abundant food supply in partnership with our agricultural, agribusiness and natural resources partners. Or perhaps through improved farming and ranching practices, new product development, cleaner water, community improvements, educational programs for youth, such as 4-H and school-enrichment lessons, or practical, put-to-use-now programs for adults.

It may also be through the formal and informal education IANR offers statewide — everything from classes on campus and at a distance to extension workshops and meetings. Our unbiased, research-based programs address both rural and urban needs.
