  1. Research Programs In the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences Dr. David Smith, Director North Carolina Agricultural Research Service

  2. NCARS Expenditures$127.8 million

  3. CALS Research Contracts 2009 $61,150,219

  4. Federal Sponsors of CALS Research $32,495,321

  5. The strength of our program is our people NCARS is supported by over 1,000 faculty, staff and graduate students

  6. The Knowledge Pipeline Research, undergraduate and graduate education, and outreach are fully integrated at NC State.

  7. Examples of Research Diversity • Crop and animal production systems • Applied genomics in plant, animal, and microbial systems • Structural biology, metabolomics, and systems biology • Quantitative, computational biology, and bioinformactics • Plant Breeding • Aquiculture, fisheries, and livestock biology • Integrated crop protection systems • Bioprocessing and value enhancement of food, fiber, and bioenergy crops. • Ornamentals, turfgrasses, small fruits, and vegetables • Food security and safety • Animal nutrition • Animal welfare and behavioral biology • Ecosystem Sciences and climate change • Human nutrition and health • Market function and impact of policy on markets

  8. Departments with Research FTE • Ag. and Resource Economics • Animal Science • Biology • Bio. and Ag. Engineering • Crop Science • Entomology • Environ. & Molecular Toxicology • Food, Bioprocessing & Nutrition Sciences • Genetics • Hort. Science • Microbiology • Molecular & Structural Biochemistry • Plant Biology • Plant Pathology • Poultry Science • Soc.and Anthropology • Soil Science • Statistics

  9. Departments without formal NCARS funding • 4-H Youth Development and Family & Consumer Sciences • Ag. and Extension Education

  10. Off-campus Research Stations

  11. Research Support • 10 Field Laboratories (beef, poultry, small ruminant, equine, dairy, turfgrass, UFL, aquaculture, biofuels, Brees) • Center for Environmental Farming Systems • Core research facilities (Greenhouses, Phytotron, Biological Resources Facility, Genomic Sciences Laboratory, Poultry and Animal Waste Center, Feed Mill)

  12. North Carolina Research CampusKannapolis • DHMRI Core Laboratory • Genomics • Metabolomics • Microscopy • NMR • Proteomics NCSU Plants for Human Health Institute -100,000 ft2 Office and Lab space Universities -NCSU, UNCCH, UNCG, UNCC NCAT, NCCU, ASU, Duke USDA-ARS, Monsanto

  13. Agrosphere Modeling for Producing Large Increases in Food Yield (AMPLIFY)-An NC State University initiative for high intensity sustainable agriculture (led by Payne and Boston)

  14. Success Occurs Through Teamwork Leadership Talent Common Goal Resources
