The Mid-South Mississippi Delta has the potential to become a center of agricultural diversity, productivity, and prosperity in the U.S. Our work is providing strategic guidance on critical opportunities to revitalize the regional agricultural economy and ecosystem. The project will bring together a diverse set of partners and engage stakeholders across the region, including underserved groups in distressed communities. The project will help inform public policy, business development, regional investment, and research, education, and outreach efforts to support these opportunities and catalyze job creation and long-term economic growth.
