The USDA Agricultural Research Service (ARS) is the primary in-house research arm of the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Based in Washington, D.C., it operates across more than 90 locations with a sizable workforce of scientists and post-doctoral researchers. Its researchers conduct hundreds of concurrent projects focused on improving agricultural practices, food safety, and sustainability, producing information, technologies, and methods with wide-reaching benefits for consumers at home and abroad. ARS traces its federal origins to the Organic Act of 1862 and was established as a dedicated research agency in 1963 to advance agricultural knowledge. By addressing practical challenges such as nitrate runoff on Midwest farms and honey bee management, ARS supports farmers, industry, policymakers, and the broader public with evidence-informed approaches.
