Kilgore College Ag Farm

Kilgore College maintains an excellent data-sharing relationship with the nearby Texas A&M University Agricultural Research and Extension Center at Overton. A&M faculty members, some of whom serve on the Advisory Committee for this program, bring current technological breakthroughs right into the KC classroom. KC also hosts A&M research projects at the Farm so students can observe scientific progress as it occurs.

KC is an active member of the Agricultural Consortium of Texas (ACT), an organization of all senior and community colleges that teach agriculture in the state which meet regularly to address common educational and academic situations related to agricultural instruction.

KC is also a leading member of the Texas Junior College Agricultural Association (TJCAA), an organization which offers community college students competitive leadership opportunities.

KC is a member of the American Angus Association and Texas Angus Association. Through these organizations, the College Farm has been a recipient of generous animal donations while building a quality herd for scientific and educational purposes.
