COOPERATIVE EXTENSION SERVICE

The 'cooperative extension service', also known as the 'Extension Service of the USDA', is a non-formal educational program implemented in the United States designed to help people use research-based knowledge to improve their lives. The service is provided by the state's designated land-grant universities. In most states the educational offerings are in the areas of agriculture and food, home and family, the environment, community economic development, and youth and 4-H. The 'Cooperative State Research, Education, and Extension Service of the USDA' administers funding for Smith Lever Act services in cooperation with state and county governments and land-grant universities.
