The Station strives to enhance the profitability and sustainability of Maine&#8217;s natural resource-based industries, protect Maine&#8217;s environment, and improve the health of its citizens. The station supports faculty members who use cutting-edge tools to address emerging and longstanding challenges in agriculture and food sciences, forestry and wood products, fisheries and aquaculture, wildlife, outdoor recreation, and rural economic development. Other research programs strive to protect Maine\u2019s environment, promote public health, and assist rural communities. The station\u2019s use-inspired research has a proven track record for developing new knowledge that fuels innovation in Maine\u2019s businesses and communities.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-spacer.kt-block-spacer-3_339828-2d .kt-block-spacer{height:40px;}.wp-block-kadence-spacer.kt-block-spacer-3_339828-2d
