The East Tennessee Research & Education Center is known for its research on production of agronomic
and vegetable crops, along with beef and dairy production.
One of 10 research and education centers in the University of Tennessee Agricultural Experiment
Station system, the East Tennessee center serves as a field laboratory providing experimental plots,
lands, livestock, orchards, equipment, and other types of support for research programs developed
by Experiment Station scientists.
The center was established on land purchased by the university in 1869. Since this time, six units
have been added, increasing the center to 2,889 acres. We invite you to explore this site to find
