The Advisor will develop an innovative extension, education, and applied research program to address issues related to the North Coast food system's sustainability, resiliency, marketing, innovation, and competitiveness. This position offers the opportunity to address a myriad of issues related to diversified farming systems, food security, water quality compliance, irrigation management, soil health, farm sustainability, climate resilience, pest and disease management, enterprise analysis, succession planning, community food security, and overall natural ecosystem resilience. The Advisor will also provide academic oversight for the Master Gardener Program as these volunteers disseminate information to the public and support local horticulture education. This position will integrate ANR's research and extension education efforts across communities to improve the profitability and resilience of plant-based food systems across the region. UCCE Advisors are responsible for conducting applied research and extending knowledge. Research activities are applied and mission-oriented, focused on addressing challenges in our communities. Extension activities are the educational methods that Advisors use to share research results directly with clientele and communities to increase knowledge and understanding of science-based research that supports and promotes the adoption of practices and technologies to solve local problems. Extension activities may include individual farm consultations, presentations, or organizing educational workshops, short courses, and field demonstrations. Information may also be disseminated via radio, webinars, fact sheets, policy briefs, news blogs, social media, and other outlets. Publications are expected in various formats, such as newsletters, articles for the popular press, curricula, conference proceedings, and peer-reviewed publications.
