University of California Agriculture and Natural Resources Application Window Applications received after this date will be reviewed by the search committee if the position has not yet been filled. Final date: Sunday, Feb 1, 2026 at 11:59pm (Pacific Time) Applications will continue to be accepted until this date, but those received after the review date will only be considered if the position has not yet been filled. Position description Position Overview The University of California, Agriculture and Natural Resources (UC ANR) invites applications for a UC Cooperative Extension (UCCE) Area Advisor at the Assistant rank. The Advisor will develop an innovative multi-county applied research and extension education program supporting the large citrus industry in Tulare, Fresno, and Madera Counties. The Advisor will develop problem-solving and educational programs for high-priority production issues related to climate and drought resilience in citrus, including warmer temperatures, decreased water availability, and decreased water quality. Research and extension solutions may include rootstock and cultivar selection, irrigation and soil management, and emerging innovative farming practices. Additionally, the incumbent will work on horticultural solutions to production challenges, integrating research and expertise from colleagues in agricultural engineering, irrigation, plant pathology, and entomology to address concerns such as limited and increasingly expensive inputs (labor, water, nutrients, etc.), the threat of huanglongbing disease (HLB), and other emerging pests and diseases. One of the most pressing concerns for citrus growers in the region is the implementation of the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA), which is reshaping how water is allocated and used. The advisor will help growers navigate the evolving water landscape while protecting crop productivity and quality. UCCE Advisors are responsible for applied research and extension of knowledge. Research activities are applied, needs-based, and mission-oriented, focusing on addressing the challenges in our communities. Extension activities are the educational practices that Advisors use to share research results directly with clientele and communities to increase their knowledge and understanding of science-based research that supports and promotes the adoption of practices and technologies to solve problems. Extension methods may include individual consultations, presentations, organizing educational workshops and short courses, field demonstrations, farm visits, and site visits. Information may also be disseminated via radio outreach, webinars, fact sheets, policy briefs, news blogs, and social media. Publications are expected in various formats, such as newsletters, articles for the popular press, curricula, conference proceedings, and peer-reviewed publications. Successful research and extension programs result in new information that improves knowledge or understanding and adoption of new skills, practices, changed attitudes, policies, and improved environmental, health, agricultural, economic, and/or social conditions. UCCE Advisors are evaluated through an academic advancement system based on four criteria: extending knowledge, applied research and creative activity, professional competence and activity, and university and public service. Location Headquarters: The position will be headquartered at the Tulare County Cooperative Extension Office, located at 4437 S. Laspina Street, Tulare, California, 93274. Position Details Sustaining citrus production in Tulare, Fresno, and Madera Counties is critical to the area's citrus growers, many of whom are small-scale family farmers. The three-county region represents approximately 58% of California's citrus acreage, adding billions to the area's economy, including thousands of jobs. Citrus is a high-value crop with potential to sustain rural agricultural economies in the decades to come. However, citrus crops face challenges that require local, on-the-ground, research-based solutions. The Advisor will conduct applied research on topics relevant to the citrus industry, based on a clientele needs assessment and the Advisor's expertise. Examples of potential research topics include: Cultivar and rootstock development High-density training systems and mechanical harvesting Improved management of water resources in the face of increased drought and implementation of the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act Strategies to improve the HLB resilience of citrus trees through plant nutrition, irrigation management, the use of plant growth regulators, and resistant cultivars and rootstocks Climate-smart practices, including innovations in irrigation technology and improving soil-water-plant interactions Research objectives should emphasize the development of orchard systems that conserve resources in compliance with state air and water regulations. Research results and knowledge are expected to be published in various UC ANR series, technical sheets, commodity board reports, and peer-reviewed journals. The Advisor will conduct outreach to provide science-based information through workshops, field meetings, webinars, newsletters, industry and media outlets, phone calls, and online and social media tools, as appropriate for the target audiences. Extension efforts will need to cover basic information for small acreage and new growers, as well as cutting-edge information for more experienced growers. In this highly collaborative role, the Advisor will work with UC ANR Program Teams, UCCE Specialists, and others in the UC ANR network, as well as external partners such as growers, industry organizations such as California Citrus Mutual, and local farm bureaus.

University of California Agriculture and Natural Resources Application Window Applications received after this date will be reviewed by the search committee if the position has not yet been filled. Final date: Tuesday, Mar 3, 2026 at 11:59pm (Pacific Time) Applications will continue to be accepted until this date, but those received after the review date will only be considered if the position has not yet been filled. Position description Position Overview The University of California, Agriculture and Natural Resources (UC ANR) invites applications for a UC Cooperative Extension Specialist (UCCE) - Workforce Development at the Assistant rank. The Workforce Development Specialist will lead applied research, curriculum development, coordination, and statewide extension efforts to study, design, and implement innovative workforce programs aligned with California's evolving food, agriculture, natural resource, and bioeconomy sectors. The Specialist will address critical issues that will aid Californians-especially youth, underserved, and non-traditional learners-in acquiring the skills and credentials needed to access high-demand jobs and build inclusive economic prosperity. The Specialist will collaborate with UC ANR statewide programs and institutes (e.g., UC ANR Innovate, 4-H, UC Master Gardeners, UC California Naturalist, Community Nutrition and Health, and the ANR Policy Institute), campus-based programs, and county-based UCCE Advisors to develop, pilot, and evaluate new workforce pathways and experiential learning models that extend beyond traditional college degree programs. These programs may include challenge-based learning, short- and long-term credentials, and career readiness initiatives in partnership with K-12 schools, community colleges, workforce boards, non-profits, and industry partners. To aid in implementing these new workforce development programs, the Specialist will conduct applied research to review and assess existing programs in California, other states, and other countries while working to tailor these models to unique and diverse contexts across California. This position will bridge education and workforce systems, UC research, and California's agricultural and environmental priorities, ensuring that UC ANR programs prepare learners with relevant skills, industry-recognized credentials, and access to equitable career pathways. UC Cooperative Extension (UCCE) Specialists develop and conduct research and educational programs for appropriate clientele groups in California communities. UCCE Specialists have programs primarily focused on mission-oriented research or creative work that supports the university's efforts to extend knowledge, including outreach and community engagement. Mission-oriented research describes the complete research continuum that extends from basic research to applications of research results. This research is generally applied in nature and has, as a goal, finding practical, cost-effective solutions for problems facing society related to the mission of the UCCE Specialist's discipline and the UCCE mission. UCCE Specialists publish the results of applied research in a combination of peer-reviewed publications and stakeholder-facing materials, including refereed journals, technical reports, and white papers, tailored to the needs of the audiences their programs serve. The extension and outreach programs disseminate knowledge and information to clientele groups to help them better understand and address problems and opportunities they face. The extension educational program serves the University's public service mission. Educational program activities include but are not limited to collaborations with UCCE Advisors, other UCCE Specialists, campus faculty, program teams, workgroups, or clientele groups; developing and presenting educational materials; communicating to clientele through broadcast, print, or electronic media; participating in meetings with clientele; developing and delivering in-service training courses; organizing or participating in workshops, field tours, symposia or conferences. Much of this work will be conducted in partnership with UC ANR's locally based UCCE Advisors. The UCCE Specialist - Advisor and faculty partnership creates an applied research network that benefits the University and the public. This position does not include formal classroom instruction at the University but fulfills the University's public service mission through community-engaged scholarship and statewide extension. Location Headquarters. The position will be housed with the UC ANR Innovate Statewide Program at UC ANR headquarters, 2801 2nd Street, Davis, CA, 95618. It is not a remote position: the candidate must be available to work onsite at the agreed-upon office location. Position Details The Specialist will focus on workforce innovations across a range of emerging and applied domains, including but not limited to: Challenge-based STEM programming - such as the Ag Robotics Challenge and AgTech Academy, which engage high school and community college students in hands-on agricultural problem-solving.
