The Darrell Williams Research Farm at the Sunbelt Ag Expo boasts 530 acres of farmland devoted to year-round research that supports southeastern agriculture with large acreage research plots and demonstration opportunities. Crops include cotton, peanuts, corn, and Bermuda grass for forage. New technologies in seed varieties, cropping systems, crop protection, soil fertility, irrigation, precision ag, and equipment are developed, tested, and demonstrated at this location. A team of skilled farm workers assists University researchers, Extension Specialists, and Industry representatives with the work, bringing the latest discoveries and technologies directly to the farmers. Our goal is to try and true the latest technology so when it reaches the farm, it is ready to go to work to enhance our farmers’ economic and environmental sustainability.

This year, this Sunbelt Ag Expo will not be hosting a formal Field Day. For questions about the farm, please reach out to Cody Mitchell – Vice President, Agronomic Research.
