#PurdueAg was named No. 3 in the U.S. and No. 6 in the world for academic programs by @TopUnis, leading groundbreaking research and innovations that will shape the future of health, food security and sustainability. purdue.edu/newsroom/2026/…

#PurdueAgWeek wraps up today with Farm to Fork Friday on @LifeAtPurdue's Memorial Mall. From animals to free food to games and swag, here are some of our favorite moments!

The @IndianaFFA named 6 @LifeatPurdue alumni as #AgEducator Golden Owl finalists “for exceptional dedication to students & FFA programs.” 🚜 🌽 🏫 🍎 ow.ly/ZSCi50YGH2Z #BoilermakerEducators

.@PurdueAgWeek is connecting students with real-world careers as the Ag Expo brings industry leaders from companies like @BaneWelkerEquip and @SyngentaUS face-to-face with the next generation of ag leaders. @PurdueAg @PurdueASEC @PurdueAgBiz @PurdueABE hoosieragtoday.com/2026/04/09/fro…

At Indiana Pork, investing in the next generation is at the heart of what we do. This week at Purdue University, we had the opportunity to host a LEADR training — a leadership and advocacy program from the @NPPC — focused on helping students build confidence in sharing their stories and advocating for agriculture. We left inspired by the students from @PurdueAg who came ready to engage, ask questions, and be part of meaningful conversations about the future of food and farming.

Purdue’s ag innovation is leading the nation. 🌱 @PurdueABE holds the No. 1 spot for the sixth straight year, powering breakthroughs across food, sustainability and One Health. Research at scale, impact that lasts. @PurdueAg #PurdueResearch purdue.edu/newsroom/2026/…

Innovation happens when creative minds and scientific thinking come together. The Plant-Based Foods Product Development and Marketing Competition challenged students from different majors to develop market-ready appetizers. See what they created: purdueag.exposure.co/2026plant-base…

.@PurdueAgWeek drew a packed crowd Wednesday as students served up nearly 2,000 burgers while turning Memorial Mall into a hands-on ag classroom—with help from ag leaders with @IndianaPork and @IndianaBeef. @PurdueAg @PurdueANSC @PurdueASEC @PurdueAgBiz hoosieragtoday.com/2026/04/08/pur…
