The UT Extension was established as part of the national Cooperative Extension System created by the Smith-Lever Act of 1914. Tennessee’s legislature authorized its Agricultural Extension Service in 1913, with operations beginning around 1914 as the outreach arm of the University of Tennessee’s land-grant mission. It helps Tennesseans improve their quality of life and solve practical problems by delivering research-based knowledge in agriculture and natural resources, family and consumer sciences, 4-H youth development, and community economic development.
