Cooperative Research and Extension

A-State College of Agriculture, the University of Arkansas Division of Agriculture, and the Judd Hill Foundation have a cooperative research location at the Judd Hill Plantation outside Trumann, Ark.  

Up to 100 acres have been set aside by the Judd Hill Foundation for the exclusive use of scientists from both institutions to conduct research and extension activities on a fully operational commercial cotton farm. The Judd Hill Plantation hosts an Annual Cotton Technology Field Day on the Thursday just prior to Labor Day, where scientists from both institutions as well as companies involved in the cotton industry showcase their latest findings or products.

The main office for the A-State Cooperative Research and Extension program is located in the Agriculture Building Room 219C. Ms. Spring Sneed serves as the Regional Accountant for this office. Dr. Tim Burcham is the Station Unit Head.
