South Coast Research and Extension Center (SCREC) is soliciting proposals for new and continuing research and demonstration projects for the period January 1 through December 31, 2009. Proposals are due on or before September 22, 2008.
Located on 200 acres, SCREC has land suitable for growing row, orchard and field crops, and turfgrass, landscape and nursery plants. Usable orchards are available for new research on 'Hass' avocado trees. There is also ample greenhouse bench space.
The center also provides labor, equipment, facilities and technical and management support to UC academics and to personnel from co-operating non-UC organizations, such as USDA. Projects approved by the Research Advisory Committee (RAC) will be eligible for SCREC labor support
