The UF/IFAS Center for Public Issues Education in Agriculture and Natural Resources (or “PIE Center”) examines how people think about, form, and act on opinions regarding complex agricultural and natural resources issues. The PIE Center’s research and educational programs help enable the public and policymakers to make informed decisions about Florida’s agriculture and natural resources sectors, specifically in these three areas: • Ensure Floridians’ responsible use of water and conservation of natural resources. • Equip Florida communities and organizations to understand and adapt to changing agricultural and natural resources issues. • Identify communication strategies to support and grow Florida’s food and agricultural economy.
