UC Davis opens Resnick Center for Agricultural Innovation Facility will advance scalable agricultural solutions through cutting-edge technology and research
Made possible by philanthropic support, including a lead transformative gift from Lynda and Stewart Resnick, through their foundation in 2022, the new center is housed within the UC Davis College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences — ranked No. 1 in the nation and No. 2 in the world in agriculture and forestry. The center builds on the university’s longstanding global leadership in agriculture with a focus on translating research into real-world impact.
