About the Southwest Virginia Agricultural Research and Extension Center
The Southwest Virginia Agricultural Research and Extension Center, located at 12326 Vpi Farm Road in Glade Spring, Virginia, is a hub for research and education in the field of agriculture. Specializing in hair sheep research, the center is home to the Southwest Virginia Forage-Based Ram Test, a unique program that evaluates rams based on post-weaning growth and parasite resistance. This research helps to identify outstanding ram lambs for sale, with a focus on production data collection.
In addition to sheep research, the center also conducts projects with graduate students, genetic evaluation programs, and collaborative research on the Katahdin breed. The center also offers programs in value-added, forage-based cattle growing systems, including projects for beef cattle development and stocker calf production.
Local Extension agents utilize the center for research on corn silage, corn grain, various grasses, and forestry projects. The center also hosts field days and tours for producers and the general public to showcase their programs and the world of agriculture in Southwest Virginia.
The Virginia Agriculture Experiment Station programs and employment opportunities at the center are open to all, regardless of age, gender, race, religion, or any other basis protected by law. It is an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer dedicated to advancing agricultural research and education in the region.
