Lincoln University on Wednesday celebrated the ribbon cutting for new facilities added to the George Washington Carver Farm and Alan T. Busby Farm.

The new facilities will help advance the LU College of Agriculture’s industrial hemp research, according to a press release. The new facilities include greenhouse complexes, hay barns, storage facilities, and a high tunnel system to extend the fall and spring growing seasons.

The total cost for the farm facilities expansion was $4,491,000, which was financed through Evans-Allen federal research land grant funds.
