The Darr Agricultural Center, located in southwest Springfield, Missouri, is a 90-acre facility that serves as a laboratory and field experience classroom for the study of various agricultural disciplines, including livestock management, equine studies, horticulture, agronomy, animal science, and wildlife conservation and management. With approximately 3,000-4,000 student and constituent visits each year, the center plays a crucial role in educating both students and the public about the importance of agriculture in everyday life. Originally established in 1968 as the SMSU Agricultural Research and Demonstration Center, the center was renamed the Darr Agricultural Center in 2000 following significant improvements made possible by a generous donation from William H. Darr. Over the years, the center has undergone multiple phases of expansion, resulting in state-of-the-art facilities, including the Christopher S. Bond Learning Center, which provides students with modern classroom and lab spaces, as well as event and banquet spaces for the surrounding community.Generated from the website
