MISSION
EATS is established as a community focused on developing and deploying agricultural technology solutions to farmers through a collaborative network of public and private industry experts with the goal of advancing sustainability, economic development, and efficiency.
From Our Founders
“Today’s agriculture is increasingly dependent on technology to remain competitive. Collaboration between our research team and industry allows us to develop and adapt technology for use by farmers in South Carolina to improve their efficiency and profitability. EATS fosters collaboration with industry with a focus on the needs of our farmers.”
George AskewVice PresidentClemson Public Service and Agriculture
“The goal of the EATS program is really just a reflection of the core of our Land Grant mission. By combining ideas and resources between our University researchers and industry experts, we aim to more effectively meet the technology needs of farmers and the people who depend on them for food and fiber.”
