Agriculture in Oswego County is diverse and significant.

Agriculture Economic Development

The mission of CCE Oswego’s Ag Economic Development (AED) Program is to encourage the creation, development, growth, competitiveness, and viability of agribusinesses in the county. The AED program seeks to realize this mission by improving agricultural producers’ understanding and application of agricultural marketing, business management, and industry development skills. It does this in tandem with informing the public about the agriculture industry’s presence and economic impact. The program puts together educational reference publications, workshops, and events to accomplish these objectives.
