About

Since 2012, the Dyson Agribusiness Advisory Council (AAC) has represented stakeholders and partners in the Cornell University land grant mission and serves to provide support, advice, and counsel to the faculty, students, and staff of the Dyson School. Our focus is on issues central to teaching, research, and extension missions as they relate to the agricultural and food sectors.

Our main initiatives are:

  1. Foster and perpetuate a strong relationship between the Dyson School and agribusiness by increasing and enhancing both Dyson student exposure to agribusiness and the agribusiness world’s exposure to the Dyson School.
  2. Provide insights helpful to the leaders of the Dyson School as they make strategic decisions related to agribusiness.
  3. Assist Dyson School leaders in the achievement of programmatic goals related to fundraising.
