Agriculture can’t be learned solely from a textbook. That’s why our 800-acre Paul L. Byrne Agricultural Teaching and Research Center, more commonly known as the University Farm, is so important to our educational program. It’s the place where our students literally get their hands dirty putting into practice the concepts they learn in the classroom.
Whether participating in class labs or working as part-time employees, thousands of students have benefited from the University Farm at CSU Chico. Farmers and ranchers also benefit from research conducted on the farm, and the farm’s produce and meat sales have long been popular in the Chico community.
