"Man, despite his artistic pretensions, his sophistication, and his many accomplishments, owes his existence to a six inch layer of topsoil and the fact that it rains."
-Anonymous

Water, soil, trees and wildlife are part of
our abundant natural resources and a big reason why people enjoy living, working and visiting the Southeast. Our resources also hold the key to providing new energy sources for the nation, ensuring a safe food and water supply, growing our state’s economy and providing our children with the quality of life we cherish.

The Auburn University Natural
Resources Management & Development
Institute is dedicated to the creation and
promotion of traditional and innovative
natural resource products and services,
and to the continued use of sustainable
practices—all for the benefit of our communities today and for the well-being of generations to come.
