The ANR unit is the center of agricultural information and technical expertise in the western Pacific Region. The primary mission of the ANR unit is to advance research based knowledge through extension and higher education in the food and agricultural sciences. This includes the environmental and human sciences to benefit people and communities in Guam and the Pacific Islands. ANR serves as a key programming point for related issues on livestock, crop and aquaculture production.

Programming includes the following areas: Sustainable Agriculture and Development of Small farms, Manure and Nutrient Management, Integrated Pest Management, Invasive Species, Agriculture/Aquaculture Production Management, and Animal Health.

                         The Agricultural Development in the American Pacific 
                         project started in 1989 with support from the U.S. Department 
                         of Agriculture. We help bring to bear the knowledge 
                         and experience of the faculty and staff of the five 
                         Pacific Land Grants on problems and opportunities of 
                         mutual interest. We partner with other institutions 
                         in the Pacific and elsewhere to help bring the best 
                         resources available to our efforts. Get to know more
