/The mission of the North Central Region's Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education (SARE) program is to create and manage a system designed to encourage the involvement of farm and non-farm citizens in the process of discovery and learning that leads to achieving a more sustainable, environmentally benign agriculture. This is congruent with the national legislation which created the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Cooperative State Research, Education and Extension Service (CSREES) research and education program now entitled "Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education" and the joint USDA/CSREES, Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) research and education program entitled "Agricultre in Concert with the Environment (ACE)"./
