The Georgia MarketMaker project is made possible by a unique partnership
among the following entities that have joined forces to promote and enhance
Georgia's agribusiness economy by linking farmers to consumers. |
University of Georgia Center for Agribusiness and Economic Development (CAED) - http://www.caed.uga.edu
CAED, a Research and Extension unit of the College of Agricultural and
Environmental Sciences, has economists and business specialists with skills and
knowledge to add value to Georgia's agricultural economy and help individuals
succeed in agribusiness. The Center provides timely assistance to producers and
entrepreneurs in researching and implementing their ideas. The Center has three
major objectives. Our first objective is to provide feasibility and marketing
services. Secondly, we provide agricultural and demographic data for private and
public decision makers. Finally, we conduct analysis related to policy issues in
Georgia agriculture and provide information relevant to decision makers. |
University of Georgia College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences Cooperative Extension - http://www.caes.uga.edu/extension
Through county Extension offices, the University of Georgia College of
Agricultural and Environmental Sciences helps Georgians become healthier, more
productive, financially independent and environmentally responsible. Learning
for Every Day through the cooperative funding of federal, state and county
governments, Extension agents are in almost every county in Georgia providing
educational programs with statewide significance. |
OneGeorgia Authority - http://www.onegeorgia.org
The OneGeorgia Authority, created by the Governor and the Legislature, utilizes
one third of the state's tobacco settlement to assist the state's most
economically challenged areas. OneGeorgia is helping to bridge Georgia's
economic divide by targeting investments towards rural communities.
